Book Christmas Wishlist
Books I want for Christmas!
I Am Number Four
Across the Universe
Angelfire
I'll add more when I find more I want, I have a lot I want but can't seem to remember at the moment.
In the beginning they were a group of nine. Nine aliens who left their home planet of Lorien when it fell under attack by the evil Mogadorian. Nine aliens who scattered on Earth. Nine aliens who look like ordinary teenagers living ordinary lives, but who have extraordinary, paranormal skills. Nine aliens who might be sitting next to you now.

Nine aliens who scattered on Earth. Nine aliens who look like ordinary teenagers living ordinary lives, but who have extraordinary, paranormal skills. Nine aliens who might be sitting next to you now.
The Nine had to separate and go into hiding. The Mogadorian caught Number One in Malaysia, Number Two in England, and Number Three in Kenya. All of them were killed. John Smith, of Paradise, Ohio, is Number Four. He knows that he is next.
I AM NUMBER FOUR is the thrilling launch of a series about an exceptional group of teens as they struggle to outrun their past, discover their future—and live a normal life on Earth.
I AM NUMBER FOUR.
I AM NEXT.
Across the UniverseSeventeen-year-old Amy joins her parents as frozen cargo aboard the vast spaceship Godspeed and expects to awaken on a new planet, three hundred years in the future. Never could she have known that her frozen slumber would come to an end fifty years too soon and that she would be thrust into the brave new world of a spaceship that lives by its own rules.
Amy quickly realizes that her awakening was no mere computer malfunction. Someone--one of the few thousand inhabitants of the spaceship--tried to kill her. And if Amy doesn't do something soon, her parents will be next.
Now Amy must race to unlock Godspeed's hidden secrets. But out of her list of murder suspects, there's only one who matters: Elder, the future leader of the ship and the love she could never have seen coming
This debut, the first novel in a trilogy, is achingly romantic, terrifying, and filled with blistering action.
When seventeen-year-old Ellie starts seeing reapers - monstrous creatures who devour humans and send their souls to Hell - she finds herself on the front lines of a supernatural war between archangels and the Fallen and faced with the possible destruction of her soul.
A mysterious boy named Will reveals she is the reincarnation of an ancient warrior, the only one capable of wielding swords of angelfire to fight the reapers, and he is an immortal sworn to protect her in battle. Now that Ellie's powers have been awakened, a powerful reaper called Bastian has come forward to challenge her. He has employed a fierce assassin to eliminate her - an assassin who has already killed her once.
While balancing her dwindling social life and reaper-hunting duties, she and Will discover Bastian is searching for a dormant creature believed to be a true soul reaper. Bastian plans to use this weapon to ignite the End of Days and to destroy Ellie's soul, ending her rebirth cycle forever. Now, she must face an army of Bastian's most frightening reapers, prevent the soul reaper from consuming her soul, and uncover the secrets of her past lives - including truths that may be too frightening to remember

Book Blog
I have actually always wanted to start a book blog, but never found the dignity or courage to start one since there's a lot of book blogs on the web, but I thought to myself, Why not take a chance? If it doesn't work I'll at least know I tried and move on.
Stop by and explore, there's some things I'm working on fixing and changing, so don't worry.

Book Recommendation
The Darkest Powers by Kelley Armstrong
Chloe Saunders sees dead people. Yes, like in the films. The problem is, in real life saying you see ghosts gets you a one-way ticket to the psych ward. And at 15, all Chloe wants to do is fit in at school and maybe get a boy to notice her. But when a particularly violent ghost haunts her, she gets noticed for all the wrong reasons. Her seemingly crazed behaviour earns her a trip to Lyle House, a centre for disturbed teens.
At first Chloe is determined to keep her head down. But then her room mate disappears after confessing she has a poltergeist, and some of the other patients also seem to be manifesting paranormal behaviour. Could that be a coincidence? Or is Lyle House not quite what it seems…? Chloe realizes that if she doesn’t uncover the truth, she could be destined for a lifetime in a psychiatric hospital. Or could her fate be even worse…? Can she trust her fellow students, and does she dare reveal her dark secret?
If you haven't read The Summoning don't read on. It does contain spoilers.
I really liked the first book and I finished the second, The Awakening, today and I can't wait for to read the last in The Darkest Powers series. The books are a fast read. I finished the first within 3 days and the second 2. If you're looking for something good to read and you're into Young Adult novels than this is something you can pick up and read it's worth your time.

Book Recommendation
It's about time I finish a book I loved and I want my readers of the blog to enjoy something they'll enjoy too!

See my previous post on Water for Elephants here.
I hope you enjoy this book recommendation!

As a young man, Jacob Jankowski was tossed by fate onto a rickety train that was home to the Benzini Brothers Most Spectacular Show on Earth. It was the early part of the great Depression, and for Jacob, now ninety, the circus world he remembers was both his salvation and a living hell. A veterinary student just shy of a degree, he was put in charge of caring for the circus menagerie.
It was there that he met Marlena, the beautiful equestrian star married to August, the charismatic but twisted animal trainer. And he met Rosie, an untrainable elephant who was the great gray hope for this third-rate traveling show. The bond that grew among this unlikely trio was one of love and trust, and, ultimately, it was their only hope for survival.

Water for Elephants
So you might be asking why the hell do I have the countdown for Water for Elephants on the side bar?
Well, I'm currently reading the book and I'm hooked. I was hooked from the beginning! I really recommend you guys read it and give it a try.

Personal Demons
Remember a pretty long time ago I posted this blogpost about Fallen Angels taking over Teen reads. Well, I think they are. There's from Halo, Fallen, Hush Hush, and now Personal Demons.
Though I think why I find Personal Demons interesting is because of the whole battle between Heave and Hell. Supernatural has A LOT to do with that :)
But anyways, I think I'm very interested in reading this book because it seems like a book I'll really enjoy.
Sypnosis: Frannie Cavanaugh is a good Catholic girl with a bit of a wicked streak. She's spent years keeping everyone at a distance—even her closest friends—and it seems her senior year will be more of the same...until Luc Cain enrolls in her class. No one knows where he came from, but Frannie can't seem to stay away from him. What she doesn't know is that Luc works in Acquisitions—for Hell—and she possesses a unique skill set that has the King of Hell tingling with anticipation. All Luc has to do is get her to sin, and he’s as tempting as they come. Frannie doesn’t stand a chance.
Unfortunately for Luc, Heaven has other plans, and the angel, Gabe, is going to do whatever it takes to make sure that Luc doesn’t get what he came for. And it isn't long before they find themselves fighting for more than just her soul.
But if Luc fails, there will be Hell to pay…for all of them.
Over at Vania's VLC Productions she has done a really neat job in doing two teaser trailers for both Gabe and Luc.

Book Recommendation
I'll be doing this once in a while!

It’s 1895, and after the suicide of her mother, 16-year-old
Gemma Doyle is shipped off from the life she knows in India to Spence, a proper boarding school in England. Lonely, guilt-ridden, and prone to visions of the future that have an uncomfortable habit of coming true, Gemma’s reception there is a chilly one. To make things worse, she’s been followed by a mysterious young Indian man, a man sent to watch her. But why? What is her destiny? And what will her entanglement with Spence’s most powerful girls—and their foray into the spiritual world—lead to?
Watch this amazing fan trailer.

A girl with a morbid ability.
And the boy who would never let anything happen to her.
Violet Ambrose is grappling with two major issues: Jay Heaton and her morbid secret ability. While the sixteen-year-old is confused by her new feelings for her best friend since childhood, she is more disturbed by her "power" to sense dead bodies—or at least those that have been murdered. Since she was a little girl, she has felt the echoes that the dead leave behind in the world... and the imprints that attach to their killers.
Violet has never considered her strange talent to be a gift; it mostly just led her to find the dead birds her cat had tired of playing with. But now that a serial killer has begun terrorizing her small town, and the echoes of the local girls he's claimed haunt her daily, she realizes she might be the only person who can stop him.
Despite his fierce protectiveness over her, Jay reluctantly agrees to help Violet on her quest to find the murderer—and Violet is unnerved to find herself hoping that Jay's intentions are much more than friendly. But even as she's falling intensely in love, Violet is getting closer and closer to discovering a killer... and becoming his prey herself.
This is the book I am currently reading at this moment. Once I'm done I'll give my review. The next book review will be coming, hopefully, this Sunday.

Entering Book Contests
I have.
But I never win.
Why?
Is it because there's other people who like it more than others or their work is better.
I'm not sure which one it is.
So I've been commenting on BehindYellowEyes.com to try and win a copy of Linger, but like always.
I lost.
I commented for 20 minutes or more.

Book Trailer Awsomeness!
On Tuesday May 25, 2010 I posted this blog. In that blog I mentioned how Fallen Angels and Werewolves are taking over the Young Adult Book Shelves. One of those books I posted that you guys should read was The Dark Divine by Bree Despain.
Now almost a year after the release of the book a trailer has made it online and it's being aired during your time watching The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Only in selected theaters.
Here it is:
Here are some things I loved about the trailer: One, the color the video was, dark and mysterious, which leads to Two, the use of the lines from the book, and Three, the way everything is black and white except for the actress's scarf is the color of the book cover.
Two things I didn't enjoy but can't complain about was that Grace's voice didn't sound that way in my head. Two, Daniel I didn't picture that way either.
I guess imagination makes you insane sometimes :)

The Summer I Turned Pretty
Sypnosis: Belly measures her life in summers. Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August. Winters are simply a time to count the weeks until the next summer, a place away from the beach house, away from Susannah, and most importantly, away from Jeremiah and Conrad. They are the boys that Belly has known since her very first summer--they have been her brother figures, her crushes, and everything in between. But one summer, one terrible and wonderful summer, the more everything changes, the more it all ends up just the way it should have been all along.
Here is a trailer!
I'm still confused on the order to read them? The Summer I Turned Pretty or It's Not Summer Without You?
