Review: Ghost Town by Rachel Caine



About- While developing a new system to maintain Morganville's defenses, student Claire Danvers discovers a way to amplify vampire mental powers. Through this, she's able to re-establish the field around this vampire-infested Texas college town that protects it from outsiders.

But the new upgrades have an unexpected consequence: people inside the town begin to slowly forget who they are-even the vampires. Soon, the town's little memory problem has turned into a full-on epidemic. Now Claire needs to figure out a way to pull the plug on her experiment- before she forgets how to save Morganville...


THIS REVIEW WILL CONTAIN SOME SPOILERS!!!

My Review- As always, I just adore the Morganville Vampire Series. Rachel Caine never writes anything boring or a been there, done that book. And she always keeps us waiting on our toes for the next book in the series.

In Ghost Town, Claire has to fix the machine that runs the town since Ada got destroyed. Without it, the town defenses will be down, including the portals and the town barriers.

After some sort of incident, Claire has to finish working on the machine without any rest, to the point were she feels like just passing out. Once she finished, she thought everything would turn out just fine, but of course, it doesn't. Within the next day, she encounters one to two people who had forgotten something completely or temporarily.

As the novel progresses, we start to see some of Claire's friends get affected too. But in order to save Morganville, Claire has to get access to the Control Room under Myrnin's lab, but that is kinda hard to do when Myrnin also loses his memory and does not even remember who Claire is, or what happen to Ada.

Now, I don't want to give everything away just in case some of you are reading this but has not read the book yet. But as you can see, this book is anything, but boring. The ending is such a cliffhanger too. The cover looks great, but I feel like they could have done a better job. I guess that the girl on the cover could pass for Claire. I really recommend this book, and I just cannot wait till I get my hands on the copy of the 10th book of the Morganville Vampire series Bite Club.

I waited to hear his truck turn around before I switched off the porch light and went into the house. I was unbuttoning my blouse as I walked, tired and ready for bed.
Something was wrong.
I stopped in the middle of the living room. I looked around me.
Everything looked all right, didn't it?
Yes. Everything was in its proper place.
It was the smell.
It was a sort of penny smell.
A coppery smell, sharp and salty.
The smell of blood.

Review: The Vampire Diaries: The Return: Shadow Souls by L.J. Smith


About~ Elena Gilbert’s love, the vampire Stefan Salvatore has been capture and imprisoned by demonic spirits who are wreaking havoc in Fell’s Church. While her friends Bonnie and Meredith explore the evil that has taken over their town, Elena goes in search of Stefan.

In order to find him, she entrust her life to Stefan’s brother, Damon Salvatore, the handsome but deadly vampire who wants Elena, body and Soul. Along with her childhood friend Matt, they set out for the slums of the Dark Dimension, where Stefan is being held captive. It is rumored to be a world where vampires and demons roam free, but humans must live enslaved to their supernatural masters…

Elena will stop at nothing to free Stefan. Yet with each passing day the tension between Elena and Damon grows, and she is faced with a terrible decision: Which brother does she really want?

Back in Fell’s Church, Bonnie and Meredith have made some dire discoveries. They hastily try to follow Elena and warn her—only to be caught up in Elena’s most dangerous adventure yet.


My Review~ I love so many things about this book, I don’t know what to start complementing on first.

Well, I guess I could start on how I love that Elena’s character matured. She is no longer the girl who cares about her looks, but instead she cares about her friends, Stefan, and the town of Fell’s Church, and she would do anything to protect them all.

I also love that readers got to see a whole new side of Damon. Readers not only get to see the bad-ass vampire Damon Salvatore, but they also get to see the vampire side of him that cares for Elena and his little brother Stefan.

Speaking of Stefan, as the story went, I started to miss Stefan more and more. I missed how he and Damon fight, I missed how he tells Elena how much he loves her, and I just missed Stefan altogether. He’s an easy character to love.

And as always, I love the fact that the story is told from many different point of views. I also love all the new characters; like Lady Ulma and Sage for example.

But what surprised me the most was the ending. It was never what I would have expected. Not by a long shot. This might be the best book in the series as of yet. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for us in the next upcoming book in The Vampire Diaries series. I recommend readers to put this book on their TBR pile pronto.

I'd been waiting for the vampire for years when he walked into the bar. Ever since vampires came out of the coffin (as they laughingly put it) two years ago, I'd hoped one would come to Bon Temps. We had all the other minorities in our little town—why not the newest, the legally recognized undead? But rural northern Louisiana wasn’t too tempting to vampires, apparently; on the other hand, New Orleans was a real center for them—the whole Anne Rice thing, right?

Also on another note, I want to apologize for my absence on my blog. I have been up late doing homework everyday ever since school started and I am already sink of it. I barley even have time to read any more. I am very lucky that I at least got one day with a little bit of homework. Anyway, yet again I am sorry for my lack of posting. I'll try my best to be more on top of it. And be on the look out for my review of The Vampire Diaries: The Return: Shadow Souls by L.J Smith...

Yesterday Was the True Blood Season Finale!!!



WOW!!! I just saw the True Blood Season Finale, and I loved every second of it. The people who made this show knows how to keep the audience on their toes. And one thing's for sure, I can not wait till next summer. It seems too far away now. I don't know who to trust in the show anymore and what might happen to certain characters or if someone might die...

And just for the fun of it, I want to show you some of my favorite True Blood wallpaper:











If you want to go to the True Blood web site click here and if you want to get these wallpapers you can also get it from the True Blood web site here.

Also on another note, I heard this song on the VMA Awards and I just had to share it with you. It's called Dog Days Are Over by Florence and the Machine.



(Sorry if the video does not fit, but I hope you like the song.)

Happy Reading!!!

Review: The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner by Stephenie Meyer


About~ Bree Tanner can barely remember life before she had uncannily powerful senses, superhuman reflexes, and unstoppable physical strength. Life before she had a relentless thirst for blood…life before she became a vampire.

All Bree knows is that living with her fellow newborns has few certainties and even fewer rules: watch your back, don’t draw attention to yourself, and above all, make it home by sunrise or die. What she doesn’t know: her time as an immortal is quickly running out.

Then Bree finds an unexpected friend in Diego, a newborn just as curious as Bree about their mysterious creator, whom they know only as
her. As they come to realize that the newborns are pawns in a game larger then anything they could have imagined, Bree and Diego must choose sides and decide whom to trust. But when everything you know about vampires is based on a lie, how do you find the truth?

In another irresistible combination of danger, mystery, and romance, Stephenie Meyer tells the devastating story of the newborn army as they prepare to close in on Bella Swan and the Cullens, following their encounter to its unforgettable conclusion.


My Review~ When I first heard Stephenie Meyer is coming out with a new book, I was right on board with the rest of the Twilight fans. I was so happy and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this book. And now that I got it and read it, I wish it didn’t have to end the way we already knew it would.

As short as this book was, I love every second of it. I got to see how newborn vampires act and how wild they can be. Newborn vampires are just like teenagers, except we don’t kill and feed on human blood and such. And teenagers don’t have powers…but I wish we did…

This book was full of action, a little bit of romance, and…well…Vampires. Bree was…I don’t know how to describe Bree. And, well, Diego was an easy character to love. They both were. But as nice as there connection was, I wish it would have gone farther.

As I said before, I wish the book had a different ending. I’m not sure what else I could write in this review, without giving any spoilers to those who have not, but want to, read The Twilight Saga.

I recommend readers to read The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner and The Twilight Saga. You won’t regret that you did. Oh yes, and one more thing I would like to point out is the cover. How cool is that? I love the hour glass. It matches the title perfectly.

The Vampire Diaries & Nikita Premieres Tonight!!!



I am so in love with this show. I can't wait till 8:00PM tonight. The Vampire Diaries Season 2 Premiere gives on the CW at 8. This year is going to be the year of the Kat. And to tease you all for tonight, here is The Vampire Diaries Season 2 Promo Trailers. To learn more about The Vampire Diaries, click here to go to their web site. Also if you have not seen season one of The Vampire Diaries but want to see it, you can get it on DVD here. And last but not least here a Description of what the first show to season 2 is about. It's from the CW The Vampire Diaries web site.

"The Return" Picking up on the same night as last season's finale, Elena (Nina Dobrev) arrives home to a nightmare as she discovers Uncle John's and Jeremy's fate. At the hospital, Sheriff Forbes (guest star Marguerite MacIntyre) is comforted by Matt (Zach Roering), Bonnie (Katerina Graham) and Damon (Ian Somerhalder) while she waits to hear if Caroline (Candice Accola) will survive the car accident. After a confusing conversation with Elena about the night's events, Damon is the first to realize that Katherine (also played by Nina Dobrev) has returned. Katherine's arrival sends Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Damon on a path to find out what she wants, why she's back, and how much of a threat she is to the people they love. Meanwhile, still reeling from his father's death, Tyler (Michael Trevino) is surprised when his charming and mysterious uncle, Mason Lockwood (guest star Taylor Kinney, "Trauma"), arrives to console the family.









Also after The Vampire Diaries air, the CW is going to give a brand new show called Nikita. My mom is dying to see this show since she saw both the movie that they made in Canada and the TV that was made before. And out of sheer curiousness, I am going to watch the show with her. Click here to go to the main web site for Nikita. And here's a trailer...







And last but not least here is what the first show is going to be about. I got the Description from the CW Nikita web site.

"Pilot"
When she was a deeply troubled teenager, Nikita was rescued from death row by a secret U.S. agency known only as Division, who trained her as a spy and assassin. Nikita was eventually betrayed by the only people she thought she could trust. Now, after three years in hiding, Nikita is seeking retribution and making it clear to her former boss, Percy and her former friends Michael and Birkhoff that she will stop at nothing to expose and destroy their covert operation. Division continues to recruit and train other young people, among them Jaden and Thom, erasing all evidence of their former lives and turning them into cold and efficient killers. One of these new recruits, Alex is a beautiful girl with a violent past and a story not so different from Nikita's. The recruits all spend part of their training with Amanda, a master manipulator who can turn any ugly duckling into a swan and any bleeding heart into a killer. Danny Cannon directed the pilot written by Craig Silverstein.

P.S. Sorry if the Videos don't fit the screen. I think if you click them it should take you to YouTube to see it normally. Hope you all enjoy the shows tonight.

Happy Reading (and watching TV)!!!

Waiting on Wednesday (11)


Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine.

This week's pick is Origins (The Vampire Diaries: Stefan's Diaries, #1) by L.J. Smith. Origins hit shelves November 2, 2010.


About~ Set during the Civil War, against a backdrop of grand estates, unimaginable riches, and deadly secrets, three teenagers in Mystic Falls, Virginia enter a torrid love triangle that will span eternity.

Brothers Stefan and Damon Salvatore are inseparable until they meet Katherine, a stunning, mysterious woman who turns their world upside down. Siblings turned rivals, the Salvatores compete for Katherine’s affection, only to discover that her sumptuous silk dresses and glittering gems hide a terrible secret: Katherine is a vampire. And she is intent on turning them into vampires so they can live together—forever.


My Thoughts~ This book sounds so good. I am a big fan of The Vampire Diaries and I would get this book in a heart beat. I love the cover but I would love it even more if Stefan had a little bit of blood on his lip like the first Vampire Diaries cover has.

Elena opened her eyes, all her memories of rocks and little children flying away, scattering like white dandelion silk in evey direction. She looked at Damen accusingly.

"You—you—"

"Yes," Damon said composedly. "Blame it on me. Why not? But I did
not bite you. I merely kissed you. Your powers did the rest; they may be uncontrollable, but they're extremely compelling all the same. Frankly, I never intended to get sucked in so deeply—if you'll for give a pun."

Review: The Vampire Diaries: The Awakening and The Struggle by L.J. Smith


About~ Elena: The golden girl, the leader, the one who can have any boy she wants.

Stefan: Brooding and mysterious, he seems to be the only one who can resist Elena, even as he struggles to protect her from the horrors that haunt his past.

Damon: Sexy, dangerous, driven by the urge for revenge against Stefan, the brother who betrayed him. Determine to have Elena, he’d kill to possess her.


My Review~ This was a review I had set up for a rainy day.

This book was such a roller costar. Elena has so much to deal with. In the beginning of the book, I felt that Elena was kind of a snob. When she first saw Stefan and he was pretending that he didn’t see her, she got so mad. It was kind of like a spoiled brat.

This book reminded me of Twilight by Stephenie Meyer in some ways. The love story between Elena and Stefan is like the love story between Edward and Bella, and how they are madly in love with each other.

The Plot of the story is vary interesting.

It’s quite different from what I thought it would be.

I thought it might be something like a girl who thought she was better than everyone else and she thought not even Stefan or Damon was good enough for her, but my god, how wrong was I? This book was better than anything else I have ever read. Well, at least for the moment. A girl caught between two vampire brothers who despise each other is the best plot ever. I recommend this book to readers, big time.

When I awoke, I immediately felt a cold surface on my left cheek. An icy shiver rushed down my spine. Even with my eyes closed, I knew I was naked, stomach down on a hardwood floor.

I gasped, though my throat was so dry I made an unearthly animal sound. Three heaving breaths, then a thump-thump, thump-thump--a heartbeat. My heartbeat? It could have been ten thousand fluttering wings. I tried to open my eyes, but with each blink there was a flash of blinding light. Then another. And another.

Review: Kiss of Death by Rachel Caine


About~ Leaving Morganville Texas, has never been easy. Living outside of it may be impossible.

Vampire Michael Glass just received the call he’s been waiting for all his life. His music has attracted the attention of a heavily of a heavily connected music producer who wants him to cut a demo and play some dates-which means Michael will have to enter the human world.

But he won’t be alone. He’s been assigned an undead escort, which includes immortal enforcer Oliver, as well as Michael’s human friends: rebellious Eve, oft-misunderstood Claire, and courageous Shane. And with that mix of personalities, this is going to be a road trip from hell.

But what waits for them proves more perilous then they thought. Caught between humans who hate them and a savage party of traveling vampires out to a blood-soaked feast for themselves, Michael and his friends may not make it to the show on time…or ever.


My Review~ Rachel Caine never disappoints me. The Morganville Vampire series just keeps getting better and better and better…

I love how the main character Claire Danvers matures throughout the series. And how her relationship with Shane is sweeter then ever. She is always so nice and sweet and in every book she gets more brave and braver and is never to afraid to try to stake a vampire (Well sometimes she is never afraid).

Eve, Michael, and Shane are always their funny self’s, and act like their brave when ever they need to be. And of course Oliver, he might be hard to like at first, but he tends to grow on you.

In the eighth book of the Morganville Vampire series, Michael Glass gets the call of his dream, to cut a demo at a recording studio. Amelie sends passes to Claire and her friends so they can go to Dallas, but they have to bring an escort, and that is where Oliver comes in. As they try to get to Dallas, they have so many obstacles to face before they can arrive on time or if they arrive at all…

The author met all my expectations and leaves us without any cliffhangers. I recommend that you put this book on the top TBR pile and read all the Morganville Vampire books as soon as you can. You will love it. I can’t wait for the next book, Ghost Town coming out October 2010.

“Hi, Mom, I’m-”
She stopped dead in her tracks, eyes wide, because Myrnin was sitting at her mother’s kitchen table. Myrnin the vampire. Myrnin her boss. Crazy mad scientist Myrnin.

Waiting on Wednesday



Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine.

This week's pick is Ghost Town by Rachel Caine. Ghost Town hit shelves October 26, 2010.



About~ The fragile peace between humans and vampires in Morganville is in trouble, and when Claire takes drastic action, she's put under serious pressure to re-establish the barriers that keep the town residents inside, and wipe the memories of those who leave. But working with her half-crazy vampire boss Myrnin means that things don't always turn out as planned ... and as the people of Morganville begin acting strangely, Claire and her friends must solve the mystery and try to put things right. But one by one, her allies are turning on her ... even the ones she trusts most.
(Description from Goodreads)

My Thoughts~ As soon as I heard about the book Ghost Town coming after Rachel Caine’s book Kiss of Death I jumped in joy and did a happy dance. I love Rachel Caine’s Morganville Vampire Series and that fact that each book has something new and fun about it.

What are you waiting for?

Review: Burned by P.C. Cast & Kristin Cast



About~Things have turned black at the House of Night. Zoey Redbird’s soul has shattered. With everything she’s ever stood for falling apart, and a broken heart making her want to stay in the Otherworld forever, Zoey’s fading fast. It’s seeming more and more doubtful that she will be able pull herself back together in time to rejoin her friends and set the world to rights. As the only living person who can reach her, Stark must find a way to get to her. But how? He will have to die to do so, the Vampyre High Council stipulates. And then Zoey will give up for sure. There are only 7 days left…

Enter BFF Stevie Rae. She wants to help Z but she has massive problems of her own. The rogue Red Fledglings are acting up, and this time not even Stevie Rae can protect them from the consequences. Her kinda boyfriend, Dallas, is sweet but too nosy for his own good. The truth is, Stevie Rae’s hiding a secret that might be the key to getting Zoey home but also threatens to explode her whole world.

In the middle of the whole mess is Aphrodite: ex-Fledgling, trust-fund baby, total hag from Hell (and proud of it). She’s always been blessed (if you could call it that) with visions that can reveal the future, but now it seems Nyx has decided to speak through her with the goddess’s own voice, whether she wants it or not. Aphrodite’s loyalty can swing a lot of different ways, but right now Zoey’s fate hangs in the balance.

Three girls… playing with fire… if they don’t watch out, everyone will get Burned.


My Review~ P.C. Cast & Kristin Cast made this book better than the last. Better than all the books in the series. Even better than most vampire novels...

This book answered many of the questions I got from reading the last book Tempted. In Burned, Zoey soul gets shattered because she saw one of her friends (I am going to try to avoid names so I don't give spoilers to those who are not caught up with the series) die. In the meantime Zoey's warrior, Stark, is trying to find a way to get to the Otherworld without dying so Zoey can come back, but every single Vampyre says that's impossible.

Stevie Rae kinda also has the worst part of life. I love reading from Stevie Rae's point of view. I feel like she took Zoey's part with all the boy drama, etc. She's caught between a love triangle of her own with Dallas and Rephaim. Speaking of Rephaim, he also was fun to read from. Even though he is suppose to be evil, I have grew very found of him. I wish that he and Stevie Rae became a couple. They seem so perfect for each other.

Aphrodite played a very important role in the book even though she was not in it a lot. It's mostly her visions that make her important. We readers would have no idea were the story line might be going without her. But she's still her funny, sassy self. A character you gotta learn to love.

The ending of the book was quite good and thank god that the author's did not leave us with any cliffhanger this time. If you have not started reading the House Of Night series, I recommend you do because you don't know what your missing. I can't wait till the next book Awakening to comes out.

YA Bloggers Debut Book Battle Round 1: Bracket 3~ Winner



Nominations:


About~ Solange Drake always knew she was destined to become a vampire queen. And as the only female vampire ever born, not made, she is surrounded by danger on all sides- from vampire suitors who want to join with her lineage to bounty hunters are set on destroying her and her family. When she is kidnapped, it’s up to her older brother Nicholas and her human best friend, Lucy, to save her. But can Lucy save herself from Nicholas, who tempts her with every look? And what will be Solange’s own fate if she surrenders her heart to the vampire hunter helping her survive to deadly intrigue at the royal court?


About~ Q: How many zombies does it take to ruin a social life?

A: Not many.

Megan Berry is a zombie settler by birth, which means she’s part-time shrink to a whole bunch of semi-dead people with killer issues. All Megan really wants is to go to homecoming, but when you’re trailed by a bunch of slobbering corpus whenever you leave the house, it’s kind of hard to score a date. Let’s just say Megan’s love life could use some major resuscitation.

Megan’s convinced her life can’t get any worse-until someone in school starts using black magic to turn average, angsty Undead into scary, hardcore flesh-eating Zombies. Now it’s up to Megan to stop the zombie apocalypse. Her life-and more importantly, the homecoming dance-depends on it.



Hearts At Stake
and You are so Undead to Me were both fun to read. It was very hard to choose between those two books because they are both very similar. Both the main characters in both books do not want to accept their fate and do what they were destined to do. But one of the many differences is that one of the books is about vamps and the other is about zombies. But I am glad to say, that my partner and I have decided that the winner of Bracket 3, Round 1 for the YA Bloggers Debut Book Battle 2010 is............




Hearts At Stake by Alyxandra Harvey
