Our hearts were on display, For all to see, I can't believe this is happening to me

Past secrets finally come out in "Stargazer" (part of the Evernight series) by Claudia Gray. While Bianca tries to find out the secrets that Ms. Bethany is keeping (like why she decided on admitting human students to Evernight Academy) .... other secrets of hers and those about her come into play. Lucas and her romance try to make it through during their separation the best way they can. But when friends find out what Bianca has been up to are they willing to help her out or will they turn against her? And will their romance last or will they ended up like Romeo and Juliet?

3.5 out of 5 stars. This one had a lot more background plot on the characters which I liked. Yet now they've definitely made it like it's Lucas and Bianca against everyone (both sides of their families) which can be good and bad. But the book ends right when it's building up to something new ... so I'm really curious as to what the next book, "Hourglass", will have in store!! Good series ... cannot wait to see what happens!

To find out more about this book, series, and/or any other of her books ... then check out Claudia's website!

We are family, Get up ev'rybody and sing ...

Family is coming out of the woodwork for Sookie in "From Dead To Worse" by Charlaine Harris, which is part of her Sookie Stackhouse series. Old to young distant relatives are becoming not so distant anymore for Sookie, who is enjoying it her now growing family .... although secret as they may be. Quinn goes missing ... or takes off ... depending on who's opinion you take, with no word. Jason and Crystal stir up their own trouble ... but of course drag Sookie in to deal with it. Alcide's pack is in the middle of a were war. Another vamp King wants to take over Louisiana. And Sookie doesn't stick to what she says in the previous book, "All Together Dead", which was if she stays away from the supernatural then she'd be fine. But things are looking up for her ......

5 out of 5 stars!!! I loved how all the relationships went. Eric. *happy sigh* And I love that she's finding out new relatives now .... but I hope one of them isn't trying to use her. =0/ If you haven't read it yet then you better! =0)

The time has come for the long-planned vampire summit, where she has to attend as part of the Queen of Louisiana's group. Her job during her time there is to help the Queen know who is lying to her and who isn't .... as well as attend the Queen's trial about her husbands death. But soon Sookie finds that the hotel they're staying at isn't as secured as well as she hoped ..... who is she saving now? or how will she do it?

Taking the journey, Enjoying the ride, Be true to yourself, Let your heart be your guide.

Two star-crossed lovers get together in "Evernight" by Claudia Gray. In this Romeo & Juliet type tale we meet Bianca & Lucas. Both are living secret lives that they grew up in but never chose for themselves. They meet up at Evernight Academy, as new students. How can you get so close to someone, and still be able to live another life? When life comes in to wake them up from their "romance bubble" will they be able to fight for each other? Or will they turn away?

4 out of 5 stars! It's another vamp teenage read ... but it definitely kept me reading. And even though I expected some of the twists before hand ... that never got in the way. So ... for those like me you like that sort of thing ... READ IT! =0)

Down in the boondocks ...

In "Definitely Dead" by Charlaine Harris from her Sookie Stackhouse series .... We find out that Sookie's cousin, Hadley, is dead dead. Meaning in one day Sookie found out that at some point Hadley had been turned into a vampire but she was now killed, and she had left all of her possessions to Sookie. Who also learns that Hadley had been on of the Queen of Louisiana's fave vampires. So Sookie goes down to New Orleans to clean out and box up Hadley's apt. When she gets there she finds that things are not always what they seem (as usual) ......

As of now what I think of some of the characters....
Bill - ASSHOLE!!!!!! You'll find out why in chapter 15.

Eric - Caring to Sookie (even when he doesn't want to be). A true friend. Loyal.

Quinn - Sookie's current boyfriend. Were-tiger. Muscleman. Sweet.

Amelia - A witch. Ditsy. Opinionated. A new friend.

Claudine - Sweet. Happy. Loving. Sookie's fairy-godmother.

Sophie-Anne - Queeny. A user.

Debbie's family - CRAZY!!!!!

Rasul - Queen's employee. Another new vamp friend.

This book I give it 5 out of 5 stars!

You got me runnin' baby, Wild at heart

The Supes come out to play in the next three installments, "Club Dead", "Dead to the World", and "Dead as a Doornail" which are by Charlaine Harris from her Sookie Stackhouse series.

In "Club Dead" (book 3), trouble comes for Sookie & Bill's relationship in the shape of Bill's ex-girlfriend, named Lorena. Also ... it doesn't help that Bill turns into a prick either. However, when Bill doesn't turn up when he's supposed to Eric asks Sookie to go undercover to save him. ...... 5 out of 5 stars ... great ending!!!! =0)

Some of the new characters we meet in this book:
Alcide - HOT! Werewolf. Co-Owner of Father/Son construction business = rich! Like's Sookie. However ... still in love with CRAZY ex-girlfriend!

Debbie - Alcide's CRAZY ex-girlfriend! Were-Lynx. HUGE Bitch! etc etc etc...


In "Dead to the World" (book 4), one night after work Sookie drives home to find Eric running down the side of the road in nothing but pants with no idea who he is. Sookie helps him out by letting him stay with her and informing her other friends about the witch who did this to him ... since the witch wants more then Eric for his body ...... This story is mostly about the budding relationship of Eric and Sookie, which is why I give it 5 out of 5 stars!!! I just love them together!!

And as I said in the beginning of this story about the Supes ... we meet more of them like the rest of Alcide's pack, and we start to learn about the people of Hotshot. Also, we meet Claudine who happens to be a fairy ... an actual one!


Things heat up for Sookie ... especially her house! In "Dead as a Doornail" (book 5), with a shooter on the loose (who happens to like shooting and killing supes as much as possible), Sookie is scared as to which one of her friends (or her brother) will be next. But in all of the disarray of being on guard about the shooter .... someone is after Sookie. But who??

In this book Bill starts to either get Sookie back together with him ... or make her jealous .... and I just have to say I don't like it. He was an asshole and now ...... if they want to be friends fine. But I hope that's as much that happens between them. *crossing fingers* This one I gave 4 out of 5 stars.

A Fixer Upper is RIGHT

This weekend I tried reading "The Fixer Upper" by Mary Kay Andrews. I mean the product description of it sounded so cute. It's about a girl named Dempsey, who is a lobbyist from Washington DC, and suddenly is thrown into a huge scandal and is pretty much thrown under the bus. So, her dad tells her about a family home that is in desperate need of repair that he just inherited, which he would like her to fix up since she has no prospects and he's not going to give her any money without working for it. So, she moves into this house and starts fixing it up ... finding a unique distant cousin along the way, a town where everyone knows your business, and some gentlemen who would like to get involved with Dempsey. However, she still cannot get to far away from the mess in DC.

I mean with that type of book ... what more can a girl ask for? But I was wrongly advised! *blah* I mean it sounded cute ... and at the beginning of the book it started out okay but I barreled on thinking and hoping it would get better. And I was sorely mistaken. =0( The book was slower then slow. Dempsey couldn't make up her mind and for someone who was supposed to have gone to law school ... I just thought the character would have been better. *shakes head* I give it 1 out of 5 stars.

However, you might have better luck then me reading it ... who knows? So, if you'd like to find out what others say about this book or find out more about Mary Kay Andrews' other books, then check out her website.
