----------------------------------------------------------------------
For the first time since I started reading this series I'm starting to hate Greg because of how he treat Rowley and how highly he thinks of himself. He only thinks about himself that he don't notice how Rowley felt about all the things he'd done. Greg was--I don't know.. Selfish? Anyway, of all the book so far I'm getting.. hmm.. bored I think? Haha. :))) Well, nevermind what I said. Even though I get irritated with Greg, this is a great series! Worth reading. ^^,

So here's the synopsis:

No one wants to be this teacher’s pet . . .

Everyone else is talking about Eastlake High’s gorgeous new math teacher, Mr. Beck, but Kaylee Cavanaugh has bigger things on her mind. Kaylee’s a banshee—her scream is a portent of death.

But the next scream might hit too close to home. Kaylee’s borrowed lifeline has almost run out.

Yeah—it’s a shock to her, too. So to distract herself from her own problems, Kaylee is determined to defend her school against the latest supernatural threat. That hot new teacher is really an incubus, who feeds from the desire of unsuspecting students. The only girls immune to his lure are Kaylee and Sabine, her boyfriend’s delinquent ex-girlfriend. Now the unlikely allies have to get rid of Mr. Beck…before he discovers they aren’t quite human either.

But Kaylee’s running out of time, and those who love her will do anything to save her life.

Anything.

Midnight

With the help of charming and devious Damon, Elena rescued her vampire love, Stefan, from the depths of the Dark Dimension. But neither brother returned unscathed.
Stefan is weak from his long imprisonment and needs more blood than Elena alone can give him, while a strange magic has turned Damon into a human. Savage and desperate, Damon will do anything to become a vampire again, even travel back to hell. But what will happen when he accidentally takes Bonnie with him?

Stefan and Elena hurry to rescue their innocent friend from the Dark Dimension, leaving Matt and Meredith to save their hometown from the dangerous spirits that have taken hold of Fell's Church. One by one, children are succumbing to demonic designs. But Matt and Meredith soon discover that the source of the evil is darker and closer than they ever could have imagined. . . .

-----------------------

Aww. I cried until the end of the story. :(( I'm speechless because all I wanna do is mourn for Damon since the time he saved Bonnie from that tree. I never expected in that book that Damon would die and revive at the end. LJ is really a good writer and of all the series I really like this one and the Nightfall but this book really touched my heart. I never expected that I would cry a lot reading this book and well. At least it all turned out well in the end. I don't know if I'm gonna be excited for the next series or not cause I really don't know if the next author they would hire would be as good as LJ. Well, anyway.. I enjoyed all the things LJ wrote and this is really the best book I've ever read. :)) I feel this is the ending of the whole series even if not. haha. :)) But I'll keep my mind open once the Hunter trilogy is released. :) I don't want to judge so soon if the book is good or not but I'm hoping it's a good book and the story wasn't messed up if you know what I mean. :)) Well, I'll be watching Shugo Chara Party now, a break from reading. :)) I stayed up all night just to finish the book and well. I just finished it this afternoon. :)) Oh. The girl in the cover.. I think she's a Guardian and I also think that she's Idola from what I can remember but I still don't know who she is. That's all. :3

Afterlife

Synopsis:

The fourth book in this electrifying vampire series has all the romance, suspense, and page-turning drama that have made Claudia Gray’s Evernight books runaway successes.

Having become what they feared most, Bianca and Lucas face a terrifying new reality. They must return to Evernight Academy, Lucas as a vampire and Bianca as a wraith. But Lucas is haunted by demons, both personal and supernatural. Bianca must help him fight the evil inside him, combat the forces determined to drive them apart—and find the power to claim her destiny at last.

Readers have fallen in love with Bianca and Lucas, and they will be thrilled to read this exciting conclusion to their romantic adventure.

---------------------------------

At first I was like what happened in the last book cause I don't remember Bianca and Lucas dying.. To be honest I can't really remember the time they died and the time Bianca became a wraith but well, with the flash backs I can still see the flow of the story. :) Hmm. Anyway, uhm.. the ending is really great cause I thought Lucas would die and well.. he didn't and he became human again. :) which I'm very happy to learn.. Kate, Lucas's mother.. I didn't expect that she'll attack her own son because he became a vampire.. That's really a shame on her part cause that's her son for God's sake. Why can't she just accept him for what he become?? Anyway, the story is really amazing though it's not like the Harry Potter wherein the climax is really that great. Well, the series is really great and I really like it. :)

-------------------

Okaaay. This series is a good book but there's always hanging part at the very end of the book. I'm kind of disappointed to know that that was the ending of the trilogy. So first of is Tristan. He's a very good guy. Always do what's best to Ivy. He's always there for her even though he's not meant for her. For Ivy, I knew the first time Will showed up from the book they'll be together. The only reason why I doubted Will cause Ivy thought he betrayed her. Even if she said it I knew he's isn't that kind of person. In the end they were together, a happy ending though not for Gregory. He's a jerk. Wanting to kill Ivy and people died in the process but still not successful. Anyway, can't believe Lacey fall in love with Tristan even though Tristan still loved Ivy, she's always there to help him for his sake. :) sweet. Haha. Well I dedicate this trilogy for Valentines day. ^^ For the love of Tristan to Ivy even though they're not meant together. :)

The Power of Love

Synopsis:

A month after his death, angel Tristan is still trying to warn Ivy of impending danger. Only after narrowly escaping death does Ivy know the truth--Tristan is with her, and angels do exist.

(source: goodreads.com)

---------------------------

For Valentines day, The Power of Love. What can the power of love can do to people who love each other? How much would you sacrifice just to save the one you love the most? Are you willing to do anything just to save the one you love? For me of course! If I really love someone I'm willing to risk everything just to be with him cause love can do things that are often we find impossible. In the story of The Power of Love, Tristan is doing everything he can in his power and risking everything just to protect the one he love the most, which is Ivy. It's going to be a shocking news if Ivy died but that would mean she would be with Tristan and with that I'll be assured it's gonna be okay. But still, I hope someone could save her. I also know it's weird that if she live I want Will to be in her side. Will can be trusted and well.. I would still vote for Tristan cause they fit together and without the other half it can't be whole. :) Well, this book is dedicated for Valentines day. :3 Happy heaaarts. ♥

The Sorceress

Synopsis:

Nicholas Flamel's heart almost broke as he watched his beloved Paris crumble before him. The city was destroyed by Dee and Machiavelli, but Flamel played his own role in the destruction. Sophie and Josh Newman show every sign of being the twins of prophecy, and Flamel had to protect them and the pages from the Dark Elders.

But Nicholas grows weaker with each passing day. Perenelle is still trapped in Alcatraz, and now that Scatty has gone missing, the group is without protection. Except for Clarent—the twin sword to Excalibur. But Clarent’s power is unthinkable, its evil making it nearly impossible to use without its darkness seeping into the soul of whoever wields it.

If he hopes to defeat Dee, Nicholas must find an Elder who can teach Josh and Sophie the third elemental magic—Water Magic. The problem? The only one who can do that is Gilgamesh, and he is quite, quite insane.

------------------------------------------

From November 1 up to February 6. I finally finished it! :3 haha. :)) I've been thrilled when Scatty's twin finally showed. haha. :)) I never thought she had a twin that really looked like her. Same color of hair and same green eyes. I'm really looking forward to reading her scene and I hope she they can get Scatty and Joan back from Billions of years. :) Well, all I can say is the usual "I can't wait for the next book" though I'll take a break for a while before reading anything cause my mind is on the process of taking the Sorceress in. So uhm. I know it's been a while and I'm not getting productive this past few months and well school works really takes up my time but since I'm not going to school this past week I'm just playing around for a while and it's also due to my injury I happened to receive last January 25. Wow. It's been 3 weeks now and only 13 school days to go before my cast is off. Well anyway, I'm going to start going back to school this coming wednesday and I hope it'll be less than 13 days to go. :(( Anyway, that's all for to day! Next week will be Valentines day. ♥

Two more grisly on-campus murders follow, and all the evidence points to Luke himself. The stakes are high as Luke sets out to prove his innocence and show that he has the talent to crack any crime.

(source: goodreads. com)

---------------------------------------

Okay. I thought it's Ms. Thacket cause it all fit to her but I have my doubts when Ed said he didn't knew about the trade of cats and Ms. Kee. Though I never paid attention to it. Hehe. :)) Anyway, Luke was so smart. He fit to be a Forensic Investigator. :) Malc is the best machine I've read. One that can conduct test and analysis. It's cool. Jade on the other hand is genius! She can make a sound that only one person can hear in one place. It's like standing with a candle and you're the one that is highlighted and the others are not. Cool eh? Haha. Anyway, blaming Ms. Thacket for doing all the murders is highly unacceptable. Well, I'm not qualified to be an Investigator. >:) anyway, I hope my foot will heal soon so that I can walk freely again. Anyway, since I won't go to school for a couple of weeks I'll be reading what'll interest me. :))

End of the first month. :)

Hmm. It's almost the end of the month and Valentines day is near. :3 and I've only read 5 books so far.

In February, I'll make sure to read more books. 5 or more. :) if I see a book that caught my interest I'll read it for sure. :) Hmm. Anyway, I injured myself because of carelessness... I dislocate my foot and the doctor said it needed to be in cast. I didn't really thought it'll be like that because I just thought/believe it was just a sprain.. in any case, I guess I'll be reading a book. :D That's all for the update today. :)

My Way to Hell

Synopsis:

After defying Lucifer to save her best friend Delaney, ex-demon Marcella Acosta has been banished to exist in the plane between heaven and hell-and there isn't a shopping mall in sight. After numerous failed attempts to contact Delaney through a bunch of hack mediums, Marcella's at her wit's end. But there's one medium she's hasn't tried yet, and he just happens to be Delaney's scorching hot brother Kellen- the one guy who never gave Marcella the time of day.

(source: goodreads.com)

--------------------------------------

That's so awesome because really! Marcella is my most favorite character of all. She sacrificed herself for the safety of her son and her family. Then she let everybody think that she's just a cold-blooded, party-girl demon but now she's not a demon after all, which she's now a ghost. The good part there is that when Uriel, the archangel, gave the permission to Marcella that she can possess the body of Solana, her granddaughter. So cool. Though I expected that'll happened when Marcella and Solana met. I mean when Kellen, Marcella, and Mrs. Ramirez went to a bar to find Solana. Well. At least it turned out happy ending. :) Though I don't know why they didn't told Carlos, Marcella's grandson, that his mother died and Marcella's in her body. I know it would hurt to know that both of your parent died but still--I think they did a good job raising Carlos. Oh. It's also funny that the long dead Darwin was in a cat's body. lol. haha. :)) Anyway, I'll be reading the book that'll strike me the most. :D hehe. That's all for today. :3

Kiss & Hell

Synopsis:

Hell's not the only thing that's hot in the sinful new novel from the author of Accidentally Dead.

Delaney Markham doesn't just see dead people, she hears them too. And FYI-communicating with tortured souls all day can really wreak havoc on your love life. Sans boyfriend, Delaney makes the best of her gift by holding seances to make ends meet-that is until one incredibly annoying ghost just won't go away. Besides being sinfully hot-in a college professor sort of way-all signs point to Clyde Atwell being much more than the ordinary spirit. In fact, he's a newbie demon whose first assignment is to take Delaney back down to hell with him. Yeah, like that's going to happen on the first date.

(source: goodreads.com)

--------------------------------------

This book is really good! A very good perspective about hell and heaven. :) Uhm. All I can say is I like the book and it's been fun to read it because of a very likeable characters in the story. I really like Marcella's attitude. Never giving up and she's a stubborn girl. She'll do everything just to make D happy together with Delaney's love of her life, Clyde. :) I enjoyed reading the story. :) I'll be reading My Way to Hell, second book of Kiss & Hell. :)

My Soul to Steal

Synopsis:

Trying to work things out with Nash—her maybe boyfriend—is hard enough for Kaylee Cavanaugh. She can't just pretend nothing happened. But "complicated" doesn't even begin to describe their relationship when his ex-girlfriend transfers to their school, determined to take Nash back.

See, Sabine isn't just an ordinary girl. She's a mara, the living personification of a nightmare. She can read people's fears—and craft them into nightmares while her victims sleep. Feeding from human fear is how she survives.

And Sabine isn't above scaring Kaylee and the entire school to death to get whatever—and whoever—she wants.

(source: goodreads.com)

-------------------

I knew it! She does belong to Nash! The only reason why Nash forgot about some memories of her is because of Avari (Hellion of Greed)! He loved her so much he have to give up their memories/feelings to the Hellion so that he can survive his need of frost! Why can't Kaylee see that? Ugh. I hate to admit but I said to myself if Kaylee can't have Nash at least Tod is with her. (okay I revised the last part) Anyway, it's a relief to know that they did get back together. As for Sabine. She's not bad after all. She does really like Nash and Kaylee is right about something. They're attached at the hip. (only in my opinion) But still she likes him. I'm kind of irritated at Tod for the first time. He told Kaylee to give up Nash to Sabine cause they're suited for each other! Ugh. I know I sound harsh but like I said earlier it's like they only want pleasure. By the way, I loove Nash for being loyal to Kaylee! He's the best guy I ever encounter so far in all the books I've read! As Alec have said men act on impulse. If you kissed a guy, the guy will kissed you back instinctively. Aaanyway, uhm. I think it was too early to judge Sabine in the first part tho it's her fault why Nash got killed. Even so she's a good mara if you don't piss her off. Haha. :D anyway, instead of doing my projects and studying for midterms, I'm in my bedroom reading this book. I got interested reading this than studying. Haha. It's boring and I'm not interested studying our irrelevant subject which is biosci. XD anyway, got to do my project! :D uhm. I'm not sure when I'll have an update but I'm pretty sure it'll be soon. :)) wish me luck in midterms! :)

Reaper (pt.2)

Sabine.. She's the reason why Tod died. It's none of their fault. If Nash didn't met Sabine he didn't have to go out to save his girlfriend. So Tod won't have to baby sit Nash. Now to think about it... It's also her fault why Nash get grounded. Well, I can't blame him for falling inlove with each other... I don't want Kaylee and Nash to totally break apart cause they looked beautiful together but I don't think that'll will never happen with all the problems they had and Sabine also. In the reaper Nash didn't met Sabie to break things up with her cause she's in the prison remember? And at that time I don't think Nash would be breaking things up with her even if he met her in the prison. He's willing to die just to get Sabie out of the prison and that's the reason why Tod was killed in a very rueful accident but even if I blame Sabine, Nash was going to die either way. So I felt like blaming Sabine cause I hate her. Taking Nash away from Kaylee... Haha.. Anyway, I'm reading My Soul to Steal now. Later then!

Witchlight

Galen. So sweet! XD I never thought he was Iliana's soulmate cause I can see it in his eyes. The summary of the back of the book is kind of wrong cause it said that Keller fell in love with Wild Power's soulmate... Which I thought that it was love triangle. Anyway, the apocalypse didn't happend. Maybe it'll be in Strange Fate. Well, I have to read Strange Fate.

Black Dawn ♥

Hunter Redfern is so stuuupid. :)) He didn't know that he had two Wild Power. One is Delos and the other one is Arcadia (Cady). He just know she's a witch. :D anyway, Hunter is gone now. Vanished by the blue fire Delos release tho I kinda felt bad for his arm. His blood must be spilled before he can use his blue fire. Haha. Oh. Also I like his stubborn attitude. :) He keeps on denying that he doesn't have feelings for her but deep inside he do have. Oh! The part that he said he can hurt her.. He just kissed her. Sweet. :) Anyway, Sylvia... I thought she really killed Miles... Cause the way she act. Like Miles is just like a toy for her. :( The moment she confessed I was like "Whoa. She didn't kill him!". Hehe. Anyway, I'll finish the book today. ^^

Fave line: "The whole wolrd can fall into ruin, for all I care"

Nightworld 3

OMGGG! Jez is a half-breed! And a true Redfern. So that means Ash is her cousin! :) also her father is a Redfern, probably another branch of Ash's. Kyaa~ so excited! :3 Anyway, whoever made that rule in Nightworld, he or she didn't know the power of Love. Haha. Also Ash, son of Hunter Redfern the most powerful and respected vampire in the Nightworld, a descendant of the Redfern family, falls in love with a human under his father's nose. Haha. Loove hiim.

----------------

Since the day I saw him I never liked him. He's such a--I can't explain basta. He's a real jerk. And DISGUSTING! Can't help but get irritated at him. It's like he doesn't know what's funny and overrated. For him everything is funny even though it's not. Then he's trying to talk to me. Huh. As if he'll fool me. As if I didn't saw what he did. It's best if he thought I'm a spiteful girl. I don't care actually cause he's suck a jerk. Anyway, that's all for today. :)

Huntress ♥

Jez and Morgead. :3 sweet. :) Both stubborn and they're really suited to each other. :> Haha. :)) As I expected Jez was one of the Wild Power. Hehe. And as usual I was touched when Morgead was screaming at Jez... aww. :(( he's so sweet even though he's stubborn. Haha. :)) I like what he said to Jez:

"Don't you dare die on me, Jezebel! Don't you dare! Or I'll follow you to the next world and KILL you."

"You come back and you do it right now. Right now! Do you hear me?"

Sweet, right? I knew from the start Morgead likes Jez though I never knew that they're soulmates cause she's not a human. Even if I knew that's she's half I don't still believe it. I thought Hugh is the one she's meant to be buut... I like Morgead. :D Haha. :)) Now Lily Redfern is gone who else is left to fight for Hunter?? Hmm. Ash would never be. Haha. Aaaand... Who's the guy with yellow eyes in Black Dawn?? I'm getting curious.. Haha. :)) Well, I gotta read Black Dawn later. ^^ by Sunday I'm done. :) So. This is for Huntress. :)

Only Good Spy Young

Synopsis:

When Cammie Morgan enrolled at the Gallagher Academy, she knew she was preparing for the dangerous life of a spy. What she didn’t know was that the serious, real-life danger would start during her junior year of high school. But that’s exactly what happened two months ago when Cammie faced off against an ancient terrorist organization dead set on kidnapping her.

Now the danger follows her everywhere, and even Cammie “The Chameleon” can’t hide. When a terrifying encounter in London reveals that one of her most-trusted allies is actually a rogue double-agent, Cammie no longer knows if she can trust her classmates, her teachers—or even her own heart.

----------------

Have you ever thought that being a spy is cool? Though it's dangerous for the most part. The book is really cool and it was awesome! Anyway, this is what I can say/comment about the book:

OMG! I can't believe it all happened! First of all Mr. Solomon was being chased by CIA and MI6-Oh! And the Circle also. Then Zach and Cam are going to find Mr. Solomon and there goes Agent Townsend. He was the "bloody" good spy as he said but then who are those people to trust? I never been so doubtful when I finished reading the book. Even I, also can't differentiate those good and bad people in the story. Aaaand another OMG! Zach's mother. The one who captured Mr. S and tried to kidnap Cam in the rooftop. Crap that! I never knew the story would turn out like that. I also thought Agent Townsend is the bad guy cause he's too secretive though he should be--or more like we/people should be. But in my case... I can't lie perfectly. I always mess up--or should I say I can't lie when I try to lie. Like the one happened months ago. I lied about my gender and name. I told the person that my name is niehsan and I'm a guy which totally rock at first though the person caught me and all I could do is blurt the truth. I also stick to the truth. Saying what I had in mind and never ever think before speaking. Anyway, I always lie the obivous ones. Anyway, getting back to the story... I didn't like it when she would run away but I guess it's really a good choice from all the choice she had cause if you really love the person you can't be a burden to them. So that's why running away from the academy is really a good choice. I heard a story like that though can't place where... Uhm. Anyway, I just hope Zach's with her cause I'm more relieve if Zach's with her. Anyway, I hope Mr. Solomon will get better. Haha. I'll wait for the next book to come. :)) that's all for today! :)
