terrikoBelieve it or not, the library had a category for "fictional grad students" or somesuch and this book came up when I clicked on the link. I can't seem to duplicate the search or I'd offer you a link.
Some Girls Bite
Twitter-sized review: If you liked Betsy the Vampire Queen, you'll probably get a kick out of this novel too
Longer notes: So yeah, this isn't really much about a grad student at all, as when we meet her she's already been bitten by a vampire and is starting her new life, much to her dismay ("it may not have been much of a life, but it was my life, and I was happy"). Turns out in a plot twist that's pretty much the same as the one in MaryJanice Davidson's humourous "Betsy the Vampire Queen" series, Chloe is a pretty good vampire when it comes to strength an ability, and a pretty terrible vampire when it comes to integration into vampire societal norms. Not quite as laugh out loud funny as Betsy's shoe obsession, but a fun enough twist on the vampire smut genre that I had fun reading it and will likely try another book or two to see if it keeps up the fun or whether it devolves into nothing but fanged make-out sessions.
