There isn't one - it's very much a slice of life series of snapshots. Because of that, I think it makes more sense to treat this as a collection of said short strips rather than a book and expect a storyline from it. I love Sarah Andersen's humour and her lineart, I think she's very good at snappy short pieces. I just curled up on the couch for an hour or so and giggled on the hilarious zingers. This was a very quick but ultimately entertaining read. If this is not the year for the vampires and werewolves to make a comeback, what with Midnight Sun hitting the shelves and everything, I don't know which is - aside from the early 2000s, of course. Fangs is a series of snapshots showcasing a relationship between a vampire and a werewolf in the quintessental Sarah Andersen way: short, punchy, and bound to make you giggle.
