  <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In tonight’s Vampire Book Club Episode, we’re going to discuss the novel &lt;em&gt;The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires&lt;/em&gt; by Grady Hendrix. Despite the misleading title, we enjoyed it as a horror novel. We debate whether the big bad counts as a vampire, talk about what worked for us in the story, and what did not.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Sources:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
