So of course I ordered off of amazon.co.uk the sequel&#8230;just beacuse <strong>I got </strong>that<strong> addicted</strong>.</p>
<p>The story &#8211; A <strong>month has past</strong> since Zoey arrived at the House of Night. So far <strong>a lot of sh!t has happened</strong>&#8230;for example Zoey had to save her hot ex-bf from crazy vampyre ghosts. So far her <strong>accomplishments</strong> have included: <strong>becoming the leader of the Dark Daughters, &#8220;stealing&#8221; hottie Erik Night from her &#8220;enemy&#8221; and becoming the most famous fledging/vampyre in HISTORY</strong> (heck&#8230;just <strong>like Harry Potter</strong>!!) So far she&#8217;s just <strong>trying</strong> to get around like a <strong>normal teenager</strong> (but seriously&#8230;she&#8217;s already a vampyre!!!) Everything goes swimmingly until the hot new vampyre laureate Loren Blake seems to be &#8220;flirting&#8221; with her. So of course she&#8217;s still kinda inlove with heath (hot human ex-bf), she&#8217;s kinda dating Erik and she&#8217;s kinda flirting with Loren (SERIOUSLY&#8230;she&#8217;s <strong>stealing all the hotties</strong>!!!!!) So what happens (after a while) is that she sees <strong>Neferet</strong> (who we can&#8217;t forget is also Zoey&#8217;s mentor as well as High Priestess&#8230;) giving <strong>Elliott</strong> (one of the freaky fledglings who <strong>died</strong> the month before) <strong>her blood</strong>! Is that effed up or what?!?!? Meanwhile <strong>Aphrodite&#8217;s been told by Neferet that Nyx took away her gift </strong>(her visions) and so everyones thinks she&#8217;s a laughing stock!!! But when one of Aphrodite&#8217;s visions saves Zoey&#8217;s grandma Zoey begins to believe in Aphrodite&#8217;s visions and doubt Neferet. So when <strong>Stevie Rae dies</strong> (I seriously cried&#8230;) and <strong>Zoey sees her in a dream in which they kidnap Heath</strong> (and then it happens) both <strong>Zoey and Aphrodite start to think that Zoey may also have the power to see the future</strong>. So Zoey takes her horse to <strong>save Heath</strong> (they&#8217;ve <strong>imprinted</strong> after Zoey drank even more of his blood) so she&#8217;s able to find him very easily. Under the ground (in like sewers and stuff&#8230;) Z<strong>oey discovers a bunch of &#8220;dead&#8221; fledglings including Stevie Rae</strong>. They&#8217;re about to kill Zoey and Heath when Zoey&#8217;s abe to use her affinities for the elements to scare them off but she&#8217;s also able to make Stevie Rae back off a bit. While she&#8217;s leaving with Heath she&#8217;s told that <strong>Neferet is behind everything</strong> (a fact that Zoey already kinda subconsciously knew.) So Neferet brainwashes her but she then remembers stuff and yeah&#8230;So they&#8217;re like enemies&#8230;and her and Aphrodite are frenemies?!?!</p>
<p>I <strong>LOOOOOOOOOVED</strong> this book&#8230;.I NEED TO CONTINUE WITH THE SERIESSSSSSSSSSSS!!! Seriously people&#8230;<strong>READ IT</strong>!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-123" title="Vampire Diaries (the Awakening and the Struggle)" src="http://volterrareader.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/vampire-diaries.jpg?w=198&#038;h=300" alt="Vampire Diaries (the Awakening and the Struggle)" width="198" height="300" />My cousin Saida (who&#8217;s also into vampire books) told me I should <strong>seriously</strong> read this series. I decided to order the first two books (<em><strong>the Awakening</strong> </em>and<em><strong> the Struggle</strong></em> which can now be found in a <strong>single volume)</strong>.</p>
<p>The story-<strong> Elena Gilbert</strong> lives in a small town. She&#8217;s the <strong>perfect girly girl</strong>, blonde, blue eyed and popular. One day though a handsome dark wavy haired italian (YAY!) looking guy in a leather jacket comes to school. He&#8217;s <strong>Stefan Salvatore</strong>, a sexy<strong> transfer student</strong>. What Elena doesn&#8217;t know is that Stefan is already madly<strong><em> in love</em></strong> with her since she reminds him so much of Katherine, his ex love back from Renaissance Florence (oh&#8230;and she doesn&#8217;t know he&#8217;s a <strong>vampire</strong> either&#8230;) Well practically Elena is being followed around by a black crow (if you don&#8217;t know this crow&#8217;s are meant to be scary) which actually turns out to be <strong>Damon</strong>, Stefan&#8217;s older and slightly sexier and definitely crueler older vampire brother who was also in love with Katherine and now wants Elena as well&#8230;</p>
<p>The TV show- I&#8217;ve heard this buzz about the <strong>CW </strong>producing a show based on the <em><strong>Vampire Diaries</strong></em> (and personally I think that <em>Marked</em> would have made a better drama series but oh well!) I&#8217;ve seen the sneak peak (<strong>free</strong> this week on <strong><em>iTunes)</em></strong> and actually&#8230;am quite <strong>exited </strong>to see how it turns out. Of course though I have a few things to say about the show. Isn&#8217;t Elena meant to be the complete opposite of the Elena they have in the show who is dark haired and dark eyed? But oh well&#8230;the CW does have a tendency of changing characters but still making incredible shows (both me and my mother are absolutley OBSESSED with Gossip Girl). The Vampire Diaries will premiere in the USA on the <strong>CW Thursday September 10th at 8/7 central</strong>.</p>
<p>I <strong>enjoyed</strong> this book. I didn&#8217;t find it mind-blowing but still it was enjoyable. I know that many people are against <em>Twilight</em> since they say that there is a resemblance to the <em><strong>Vampire Diaries </strong></em>and yes there is a resemblance but it is <em><strong>TINY</strong></em>: vampire-human  relationships and love triangles. Let&#8217;s see&#8230;<em><strong>Vampire Diaries</strong></em> involves a love triangle between beautiful human-good vampire and bad vampire. <em>Twilight </em>involves a love triangle between clumsy human-sweet and selfless vampire and kind of selfish and immature shapeshifter (I AM NOT A TEAM JACOB HATER&#8230;Jake is H-A-W-T!!!) I&#8217;m looking forward to reading the rest of the <strong><em>Vampire</em></strong> <strong><em>Diaries</em></strong> series and also watching the show tomorrow night!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-119" title="Marked" src="http://volterrareader.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/marked1.jpg?w=199&#038;h=300" alt="Marked" width="199" height="300" />If you guys haven&#8217;t already noticed <strong>I LOVE <em>VAMPIRE</em> BOOKS</strong>! I was always unsure though to read <em>Marked</em> or not though since it isn&#8217;t your conventional vampire novel. BUT IT IS <strong><em>AMAZING</em></strong>!</p>
<p>The story- Zoey is your<strong> typical </strong>teenage girl. Beautiful, popular and smart. But when one day at school a weird tattoo like mark starts spreading across her forehead she realizes she&#8217;s<strong> a vampyre.</strong> So of course she&#8217;s <strong>sent off to the House of Night</strong>; a high school founded just to <em><strong>instruct vampyre</strong></em> teens. So she&#8217;s off to her new fancy dancy school (fancy shmancy right?) Her first night is kind of&#8230;uh&#8230;weird. She sees a sexy blonde giving&#8230;uh&#8230;head? to a super hot vampyre dude. YAY!!! But something weird is going on at the House of Night&#8230;something that isn&#8217;t ordinary (extraordinary if you will&#8230;) For some reason the <strong>Dark Daughters and Sons</strong> have weirder rituals than normal and stuff. Well&#8230;it&#8217;s hard to tell about the book without ruining it for you guys&#8230;</p>
<p>I really <strong>loved</strong> this book. I love fantasy and I love vampires (vampyres&#8230;or whatever you want to call them!) It&#8217;s a great <strong><em>coming of age </em></strong>novel and I didn&#8217;t expect it!!!! I really can&#8217;t wait to read the next installments!!!</p>

<p>The Story- <strong>Chloe</strong> is <em>pretty</em> normal. She&#8217;s a <strong>freshman </strong>at an Arts High School and all she wants to do in her life is become a famous <strong>Hollywood director</strong>. But there&#8217;s just one problem: <strong>Chloe Saunders can see dead people</strong> (Oooooooh!) Even though seeing ghosts and dead people is quite a popular topic in films if you have this unfortunate &#8220;gift&#8221; in real life you find that you have a one way ticket to a mental hospital. So Chloe f<strong>inds herself in Lyle House</strong>, a sort of <strong>rehabilitation</strong> house for &#8220;misguided teens&#8221; and there she meets a group of kids who have also been lead to believe that they have psychological problems and illnesses. Chloe though is <strong>convinced</strong> that <strong>she isn&#8217;t actually &#8220;Schizophrenic&#8221;</strong> like they&#8217;ve told her. Of course thought if anyone came up to you and said &#8220;Hi! I can see dead people!&#8221; anyone will instantly think that they&#8217;re a bit nuts. But when the freaky, greasy haired buff guy starts opening webpages on <strong>necromancing</strong> for Chloe and hinting that <strong>Liz</strong> wasn&#8217;t actually taken to a hospital but <strong><em>killed </em></strong>Chloe starts believing that she might not be the only one in Lyle House with &#8220;gifts&#8221;. So, taking a huge leap, <strong>Chloe discovers that Lyle House was an experimental home for people with &#8220;gifts&#8221;</strong> captained by a freaky scientist. So Chloe then decides that her, Simon, Derek and Rae must all run away from Lyle House. Well does that turn out well?? Read on&#8230;</p>
<p>I <strong>LOVE THIS SERIES</strong>!!! While I was in L.A. I picked up a copy of The Awakening and was <strong>awestruck</strong>. These books <strong>flow</strong> so easily and are so amazingly written. You feel as if you&#8217;re living with the characters. I wish I was locked into Lyle House. I was first interested in reading it when Veronica brought it to me since I was researching the topic of necromancing for a book I&#8217;m writing. BUT I <strong>LOVED</strong> ITTTTT!!!</p>

Sooooo&#8230;being the <strong>AHMAZING</strong> friend I am I did.</p>
<p>The story- <strong>Zara</strong> (BTW- if you&#8217;ve never been C.H.E.C.K.  O.U.T.  A.N.Y.  Z.A.R.A.  C.L.O.T.H.I.N.G.  S.T.O.R.E.!!) is devasted after her step-father&#8217;s death and so her mother send her to live with her grandma in <strong>Maine</strong>, a place she never truly visited though her family lived there. The day after she arrives she&#8217;s sent to school (uhm&#8230;okay. In the book <strong>Maine</strong> is cold &#8211; <em>like</em> <strong>Forks</strong> &#8211; and she goes to school on the second day &#8211; <em>like</em> <strong>Twilight</strong> &#8211; just saying) There she meets friends and of course two hot guys are already fighting for her attention (I wouldn&#8217;t be complaining). Weird stuff keeps happening though. She finds <strong>golden</strong> <strong>dust</strong> on the driveway and on the back of <strong>Nick&#8217;s</strong> (sexay huh?) jacket. Plus: some weirdo&#8217;s been <strong>stalking</strong> her (what&#8217;s up with that?!) She doesn&#8217;t know who to trust and what to think. Turns out her gran, best friend, sorta boyfriend and bestfriend&#8217;s handicapped crush are all some sort of <strong>shapeshifter</strong> (and yes&#8230;<strong>Nick</strong> <em>IS</em> a <strong>WOLF</strong>!!! <strong>Odd</strong>.) She also discovers she finds <strong>pixiedust</strong> everywhere&#8230;..Uhm&#8230;.odd!!!</p>
<p>Well&#8230;if I say more I&#8217;m kind of going to ruin the book for you&#8230;</p>
<p>I enjoyed the book. It <strong>wasn&#8217;t</strong> <em>spectacular</em> but it was a nice time-filler and I really liked the characters (especially Issy and Gran.) I suggest this book to pretty much anyone. It&#8217;s a nice and light fantasy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Unless you guys <strong>haven&#8217;t </strong>noticed (which is very <strong>probable</strong>) I haven&#8217;t written any reviews lately (<span style="text-decoration:underline;">bad </span>Gemma!) The reason behind that is<strong><em><span style="text-decoration:underline;"> school</span></em></strong>. I&#8217;m a freshman (or was back when I was still in school) and at the end of the year I had some trouble with uhm&#8230;.school subject(s) (NAMELY: <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><em><strong>latin</strong></em></span>!!!!!!!!!) I was studying a lot and so I didn&#8217;t have time to come and write here&#8230;.sorry to anyone who actually <strong>READS</strong> this blog! But yeah&#8230;I&#8217;ll just tell you whats been up in June for me (I can&#8217;t really remember any other months&#8230;I&#8217;m kinda dumb &gt;.&lt;)</p>
<p>Uhm so yeah&#8230;..I finished school on the&#8230;13th of June. On the 12th I had my dance recital in the theater and on the 13th I danced in the main square. A friend from L.A. came to see me that night and we went to my best guy friend&#8217;s birthday. We then broke into the park and they all got drunk (besides my friend and I and another friend) and it was F-U-N-N-Y!!!! Then she left on Sunday (sadness&#8230;.) On the&#8230;21st I left for NEW YORK!!!! And now <strong>I&#8217;m in L.A.</strong> and I bought some book and read them&#8230;so yeah&#8230;.that&#8217;s me!!!</p>
<p>If you guys ever want to contact me (which I find VERY doubtful) I&#8217;ve set up an email address you can contact me at: <strong>VolterraReader@live.com</strong>. I will also be on MSN every now and then with that contact so add me.</p>
