Bitten- by Robert Smith (I think that's the author) It's kind of funny so far, I'm only about 60 pages into it

Just finished the 3rd Luxe book, Envy, which was good but I didn't like the ending. Now I've started Kiss of Life, the sequel to Generation Dead, which is going to be very silly, according to my mum and my friend.

Finished Carpe Corpus and it was pretty good. I'm really looking forward to the next one.

I think I'm going to read Secret Life of a Vampire next, it is part of the Love at Stake series.

Well my best friend and fellow book addict has been trying to get me into the Luxe series for almost three years so i'm sure I'll like it. There's another book she suggested for me that I've been unable to find. It's called Gargoyle or maybe Gargoules or The Gargoyle or something like that.

I always read books in big chunks, every two weeks I go to the library (this week was on Tuesday) and max out my borrowing card then hole myself up in my room until my eyes start to itch.

I think you'll like Exodus It's kinda post-Apocolyptic like Hunger Games but the emphasis is more on this one girl trying to save her village. Read It Latte, the Cocoa commands you :D

If I were paranoid, I'd see a trend of female authors writing disappointing sequels. Or I just have issues.
I read Storm Glass, the 4th sequel to Poison Study by Miranda Snyder. Poison Study is an extremely good book, as are the next to, but Storm Glass jsut isn't as great. It doesn't focus on the heroine of Poison Study, but rather a minor character from the 3d book, who now gets her own tale. That tale just isn't as gripping, however, and at points the writing style became very see-through and... not mediocre, but not as good as the first few. *sighs* Just like Bloodhound, the characters simply aren't as strong as they used to be.
