Today, I read "Marked" A House of Night Novel by PC Cast and Kristen Cast. It was pretty funny, interesting and an easy read. I am starting on the sequel tonight. The basic premise is that VampYres are not created by being sucked on or whatever, but that they are "marked." Then they have to go to Night School for four y ears to learn about being a vampire and whatnot. Kind of like Harry Potter, Zoey has just been marked and has crazy amounts of abilities. Its pretty funny with its YA oriented commentary and references to, like, emos and pam anderson's boobs. The downside is that it is a lot more specifically "pagan" oriented (for lack of a better word)--a lot of calling of the elements and doing like earthy summonses types of things, which might make people uncomfortable (I'm just guessing.) But if you get a chance, check it out.
Also was reading (am reading, I guess) these Vampire fluff romance/mystery novels... you know, almost like those super cheap paperbacks (wait, almost? no really like that) if you are interested, lemme know.

11 enjoyed the bouquet.:
I've seen these and have been meaning to check them out. You should bring me the first one when you come home this weekend.
Thanks Alison!
This is definitely going on my summer list. I just hope I can get to them all! I have had no reading motivation lately...
I have been reading like a mofo lately... 4 books this weeknd. I will have no problem bringing them by for you.
I really liked the first book, but it didn't feel complete. Almost like it was the first half of a book. But I think that it will be a good series. The cover says its sexy, so.... we'll see. ;)
So I finished the three books and can't wait til the next one comes out in september... I really feel like they should have been just one long book, though.
Anyway, they are a lot of fun, and in Zoey's words.. she is a total "ho-bag."
I am in LOVE with these books. Thanks for bringing them home. I already lent the first book to Kari. I have to stop typing now because I have to get back to CHOSEN. ARG! How awesome is it that Zoet gets to be a ho-bag! I love it!
I am so glad you like them! I thought you guys would think they were stupid or silly, but they are so much fun!
I don't know how many times I either laughed out loud, said Ohmygod, or other grunts/vocals. They are good. I finished them and am looking forward to the next one in September. I hate waiting.
yeah, I thought they were pretty hilarious/shocking. talk about a ho-bag!
I kinda, (no, I mean really) liked the ho-bag part. I don't mind all the hot guys!
I am currently on Betrayed. These books are HP, Twilight, Uglies, COB/COA all mashed into one. I do enjoy the fact that it seems like they were written by a 16 year old (I guess her daughter did help...)
So far so good, you ho-bags.
I just finished 'em. They are SO AWESOME! I laughed a lot. I am def going to use the word ho more often.
So, Ryah, are you almost done with them? I want to discuss!
