My Sister The Vampire Series by Sienna Mercer

The My Sister the Vampire series are about two teenage girls who are both adopted and meet each other to find out that they are twins!!!! They are both as different as can be as one is a cheerleader and is VERY girly when the other is a Goth and has a secret that can change their lives forever as one is a vampire. The books are very interesting and exciting. I loved it and I think they were the best books I have ever read. There is 4 books in the series and they are fang-tastic!!! I think that the best character was Ivy. She was very funny and nice.
