The Dark Heroine

Abbie Gibbs is an 18-year old with a full schedule. Not only is she starting her studies at Oxford University, she’s just signed a deal with Harper Collins because of the success of her book, The Dark Heroine, which she describes as being, “more bloody” than Twilight.

Unlike the Twilight vampires who use the term “vegetarian” to describe only the abstinence from humans and not animals, Gibbs is in real life a genuine biter of vegetable flesh.
