I can see myself as Mina which made it even better. I like being able to step into a good book, and I find it very easy to step into all of these vamp books.
If I didn't mention it, or this is your first time reading my blog, this series is about three brothers who are turned into vampires, and a sister who is turned into a werewolf. They are the Young family.. Elizabeth, Christian, Sebastian (my fav), and Rhys. You don't HAVE to read them in order but I think it helps. I did not read them in order and I am not confused. I started this series on my trip to Florida with my best friend, S. She introduces me to a lot of good things in life, like Etsy, The Chicago Diner, and stuff. GO HERE for more details.

I also read this book called Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead. It was a random pick, and I wasn't expecting too much from it. I was wrong to judge. The beginning was a little slow for me to get into, but once the pieces fell into place- I couldn't stop reading. This was new for me. They weren't the stereotypical vampires and creatures. They were different and had new creatures.. its new for me so I can't remember all the details but its a nice change of pace.
This is the first book in the series. There are four books out so far.
"Two races of vampires walk our world. One, the Moroi, are alive and wield elemental magical. The other, the Strigoi, are undead and evil--feeding on the innocent to survive. Rose Hathaway--a half-vampire with poor impulse control--is training to be a bodyguard for a Moroi princess. Learning to decapitate and stake is hard enough, but Rose's real danger may lie in an illicit romance with one of her instructors"

and no.. since the twilight saga which got my addicted to these books... no other vampire sparkles. wtf. sparkle? S Meyer... you can do better I think. I used to love that series... now I'm not so sure.

I have the Black Dagger Brotherhood series being shipped to me. I downloaded a bunch of Jane Austin books, and for my lunch hour read... I am reading the Great Gatsby because I've never read it.
Always accepting requests and ideas for new reads :)
