So to continue on my streak of reading vampire books, I picked up the first four books in the House of Night series by mother/daughter duo PC Cast and Kirstn Cast. Seeing as they are coming to Portland this week, I wanted to be familar with their work. First off, I find it very interesting [...]
So I am currently watching a live reading/questions thing with John Green and David Levithan about their novel Will Grayson, Will Grayson.

I don’t even know what to say about it. I’m positive, based on how many different vampire books I have read, I could finish top of the class. Heck, [...]
Well at least, publishers are hoping that it does. The ‘game changing’ device hit the market this last week and with it, another way for consumers to get their hands on ebooks, as well as electronic magazines and newspapers. Here is one article I found from Yahoo talking about publishers outlook on the iPad. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100402/media_nm/us_apple_ipad_media [...]
So every now and then I mark quotes in books that I really like. I’ve decided I’m going to start typing them out on here. So yeah, new category. Please enjoy. ********* “You can’t say she was too exuberant, like Bonnie, or too serene like Meredith. Elena was just sweet enough to offset her bright, [...]
