Goodreads Synopsis:
BCRD lives on!
Mina is ready to roll…but her new team is nowhere to be found. After a summer skating around town looking in every dark corner for the Blood City Rollers, Mina and her other human teammate Swan are finally reunited with their squad at an abandoned asylum. It’s old, creepy, and has a basement full of zombies…perfect.
But if the asylum is going to be the new freaky forever home for the Vamps, they’ll have to fight for it. A new team of outcast monsters are also looking for a new home, and the only solution to a turf war this bloodthirsty is a Sudden Death Scrimmage.
Mina just wants to help her team win, but she can’t help but feel like she still has to prove she belongs. And when the competition with Swan heats up, she’ll have to learn that being a teammate isn’t about being the best player…it’s about being the best friend.
Review:
This sequel is about a 13-year-old girl who left her ice skating hobby and started roller skating with a vampire team. I love paranormal stories so this one was so fun. I know I would have loved it when I was a kid too. It ended on a bit of a cliffhanger so I look forward to the next book in the series!
Move It or Bruise It is a fun middle grade graphic novel!
