clair de lune by Christine johnson

oficial resume :Torn between two destinies? Claire is having the perfect sixteenth birthday. Her pool party is a big success, and gorgeous Matthew keeps chatting and flirting with her as if she's the only girl there. But that night, she discovers something that takes away all sense of normalcy: she's a werewolf.
As Claire is initiated into the pack of female werewolves, she must deal not only with her changing identity, but also with a rogue werewolf who is putting everyone she knows in danger. Claire's new life threatens her blossoming romance with Matthew, whose father is leading the werewolf hunt. Now burdened with a dark secret and pushing the boundaries of forbidden love, Claire is struggling to feel comfortable in either skin. With her lupine loyalty at odds with her human heart, she will make a choice that will change her forever?.



my resume:claire is a pretty normal girl she's pretty popular has a crush and a best friend beside her mom being never home and having a nanny her life is normal till one day at her 16th birthday pool party a wolf is seen in the woods close to her house and thats when everything changes.

clair de lune was a very good book I enjoyed it it was a book full of thing you could relate to and stuff you couldn't but were excited to get to know the story was centered around werewolfs and the challenges of love since i absolutely adore both werewolfs and romance this was a good book for me

the main caracter clair was really nice and she grew on you during the book the plot could of been a bit more unique because this was kind of a thing i would suspect but definately worth reading the werewoles were unique so it was a nice change it was more of a ritual ans something i guess a bit like twilight (the werewoles i mean)and the other aspect SPOLIER that they were all girls made me kind of wish at a couple of times that there were boy werewolves like idk something like her crush is the only boy werewolf or something I know it's really clicher but it is what I thought at least 3 or 4 times during the book then when I finally let it go I really apreciated the change.

so an amazing book worth reading XD

crusade by nancy holder

Crusade

 
official resume: For the past two years, Jenn has lived and trained at Spain’s Sacred Heart Academy Against the Cursed Ones. She is among the few who have pledged to defend humanity or die trying. But the vampires are gaining power, and the battle has only just begun.
Forced to return home after death takes a member of her family, Jenn discovers that San Francisco is now a vampire strong-hold. As a lone hunter apart from her team, Jenn is isolated — and at risk. She craves the company of her fighting partner, Antonio: his protection, his reassurance, his touch. But a relationship with Antonio comes with its own dangers, and the more they share of themselves, the more Jenn stands to lose.
Then Jenn is betrayed by one who was once bound to protect her, causing her to doubt all she had held as true. To survive, Jenn must find the courage to trust herself — and her heart.


 my resume:jenn went to a vampire hunter school  after vampires have started to try and take possesion of eath her dad does not agree  with his daughters chocices and when her idol and granpa dies she goes back to her home town to give honor to him then things start to happen

 ______________________________

crusade was a good book everyone has a different opinion while reading books I really liked this book and am fairly sure that this will be a series there's no way it should end like it did if it was'nt a series so all that to say im not really looking forward to the second book not because the book wasn't good it's because I have many books I want to read before and it's not really a book im going to be on the edge of my seat waiting for but my friend on the other hand a (fellow book lover) can't wait for the next book but again it was a good book worth readin.

ok onto the review ok I hate being pecimist towards a book but I do have a couple of down points for this book there were some parts in the book that were kind of  "slow" and hard to get through as there were parts were you could not put the book down.The author introduced lots of caracters fast and its hard to remember them all at the beggining but I did get the hang of it after a while besides those two points it was good.Now onto the good parts of the book.The caracters were awesome once you got to know them the plot was also very good and unpredictable it's one of those books that you keep thinking about after you put it down.The discription the author but in was good but at some points too much or maybe thats because you want to know what happens next so the details just drag on .Thats all I have to say about this book despite the bad points it's still worth reading if you have time to spare.

________________________________

 linger ok first things first i have just just finished this book and I have to say now WERE CAN I GET LINGER RIGHT NOW the ending was epic really suspencfull god how you people who had to wait for the next book must have felt I bow down to you I love those kind of endings as much as I hate them they make you enticapate the next book and also make you want to scream well what I do usually is go tell my friends about the book but they don`t read so when im done talking really fast about the book there all llike ya what r u talking about anyways when I finish a book like this I don`t care if my friends have no clue what im talking about it just has to come out hahaha ok now onto the review


     linger was a great read it came from 2 perspectives sam and grace though you do kind of get the feel that grace is the main carathereven though they both have apoximately the same number of chapters dedicated to their point of view


   caracters I loved were one sam he is just a lovable caracter you just cant help but love him and want to just jump in the story to confort him he also sounds like he is pretty deccent looking and the author describes him just perfectly second grace well she is basically the main caracter you get to know her throughout the book if anybody out there reading my blog those ot like grace please comment id be interested in knowing why of course at some points like at the end of the book your just hating her and screaming to the book DON`T DO IT(at least i was though i didn`t scream it out lound i was in the bus so ya) but when you find out the problem is solved later youre still happy for her(hihi i think i phrased that pretty well whithout spoiling anything)but other than that you start by pity then compassion the genuine loe for the caracter nicely thought I out if I do say so myself  another carcter i absolutely loved was brett he just seemed so sincere and awsome ya

ok plot line whise the plot line was good but i did find it could of have a bit more spins to it as in some other things happen i knoow there were some like jack and oliia but it could of haved more just my personal opinion other than that awsome werewolves are also a part of this because i absolutely love werewoles and vampires i probably wouldv,e liked it even if it was another mythical creature.to add to the laqst statement yes ittalks about werewolves but it a really great twist to it and even if you don`t like werewoles you will probably love this book anyways

so thats it great book go read it

series:book number 5
author:Elizabeth Chandler








resume:
 Psychic...or psychotic?

Anna knows her family is crazy. But when she goes to visit her aunt and uncle for the summer and learns that her uncle’s charred body has been found, her life reaches a new level of insanity. Her erratic aunt’s “psychic” abilities are exaggerated by her grief, and have become borderline violent. Alone in an unfamiliar town, Anna struggles to pick up the pieces and establish any sense of normalcy. She desperately wants to trust Zack, the cute boy next door, but even he might know more about the incident than he is letting on.

But when Anna starts feeling an inexplicable pull to the site of her uncle’s murder, she begins to believe that her family’s supernatural gifts are real after all. Torn between loyalty and suspicion, Anna is certain of only one thing: she must discover who killed her uncle or she could be next....

Raven by allison van diepen


Raven by allison van diepen




raven was a very very very good book though the beginning was slow once you got to about page 100(this is really aproximate)
it got really interesting i read this book in one sitting !_! yes no joke !!!raven is a strong character and you never know what to aspect of her she can be really vulnerable at times and very strong at others zin is also an awesome character witch you can just imagine is just exploding with hotness(yummy) hes also a well planned out character but seriously all i could think of when he was in the scene is yumm ok that wasn't all i could think about but it is a major part of it (I thinks I should stop talking about this right now)

her brother is a real jerk ok more than a jerk(i don't know the right way to call it) and you know that Nicole(raven) is really depressed about this situation but the author could`ve gone more in details you didn't really feel Nicole pain but it was very clear that she was in despair over the incident for someone like me whop has never lived something like that(thank the lord)it was hard for me to relate due to lack of details

this book is pretty dark but not dark enough that it is hard to read(i haven't encountered any of those yet) and the author is clever so even at the ending tragedies happen so you never know if something will go wrong until the last page I do wish though that the ending was a bit longer by ending i mean the part where they live happily ever after basically more romance at the end of the book

spoliler(to read only after finishing the book)


at the begining when she was always referring to the gost it got kind of coonfusing first you thought she could she gosts then when her dad new about the gost and accepted it you thought well ok maybe it is this the persons name well finally i got it that it was in fact her brother who she decided to nickname in that way all im saying is that i could of been more clear


ok here is my confession i was secretly hoping that nicloe(raven) became a jin shing and i was also thinking that she would chose that to so the ending was really unecpected who could've guessed kim was a heng te I love it when the author throws something unecpected.


her brother is really sweet when he becomes a jin shing but your kind of thinking the whole while that the only reason he is a jin shing is because carlo wants raven witch is the reason


anyaways to conclude great book XD

blog hop #2
   



for those of you who don't know what the blog hop is it is tecnically a list full of links to blogs that talk about books for more explanation go to crazyforbooks









"What are your feelings on losing followers? Have you ever stopped following a blog?"


weird i was actually thinking about that this week when my followers went from 10 to 9 gasp lol jk though i do wonder why someone followed only to unfollow two days later weird maybe it`s because I did not follow that person back witch I think is kind of unreasonable(but btw if you comment I will for sure check your blog out if you leave your blog`s link at the end of the comment). I completely agree with the author of crazy for books and what she said for this weeks answer to the question. so I guess my answer is it`s not fun to lose followers it makes me sad lol but it is the persons choice whether they want to follow me or not.


to answer the second part of the question no i have never stopped following a blog mostly because I follow blogs that generally interest me and blogs I cant want to read more from. That I only started blogging 2 weeks ago has a part in that as well XD

i want to take this opportunity to thank all my followers it means ALOT ^_^

waiting on wednesday 1

  Waiting on Wednesdays(#1)



 hello so here is my try at waiting on wednesday if i did something incorectly please mention it to me by leaving a comment and that`s about it but before my pick for this week here is a little random rant that has nothing to do with waiting on wednesday(well it kind of those have to do with it but...just read ^_^)

Waiting on Wednesdays is a sort of a releif(relevance should be a word) of torture and kind of inflicting torture on fellow bloggers(now wait let me explain myself).Because you get to tell the world about that book that's been nagging at you for a very long while and be relieved of knowing your not alone being tortured by this particular book. But the person reading this blog is now stuck with two epically awesome books to think about and we bloggers don't get angry at someone to have inflicted this torture on us, no we are addicted to it and love knowing what new books there are out there to drool over and torture us farther .Yes voila my rant but to tell you the truth it isn't really torture more like a extreme excitement and only this can describe how awesome an idea Waiting on Wednesday is : these word are so awsome you can`t even read them XD hihi ok here my pick for Waiting on Wednesday


 once in a full moon by Ellen Schreiber
 
Release Date: January  2011
Publisher:katherine tegan books
Age Group: Young Adult 
Pages:   304
Series: full moon (one in series)
resume:
Beware of a kiss under the full moon. It will change your life forever.

Celeste Parker is used to hearing scary stories about werewolves—Legend’s Run is famous for them. But when, after an unnerving visit with a psychic, she encounters a pack of wolves and gorgeous, enigmatic Brandon, she must discover whether his transformation is more than legend or just a trick of the shadows in the moonlight. Brandon may be Celeste’s hero, or he may be the most dangerous creature she could encounter in the woods of Legend’s Run. 


 My thoughts:
 Reason why i can't wait to read this book. One the cover is amazing, Second I enjoyed vampire kisses by this same author. Third the plot line seems interesting, Fourthly well it talks about werewolfs and i absolutely love werewolves and vampire storys (I love almost all YA fiction )
