I'm sooooo sorry!!

I'm so sorry for not posting earlier but I have just completely forgotten and have had so many books that I want to read and just go on and read them without posting about them. There are so many that I actually can't remember all of them.

Well first of all I have started reading the Tomorrow Series by John Marsden, which is tomorrow when the war began. I have read the first 4 and then started reading something else and haven't gotten back to them. I am very slack.

They are about Ellie Linton and her seven friends who decide that because it is nearly the end of the holidays they want to do something exciting. They decide to go camping in a clearing in the forest which is named Hell although it is tranquil and quite the opposite of Hell. When they are out there they see military planes fly over head and joke about having WWIII start while they were away but they weren't too far off the truth. When the get back they find that they have been invaded and that all their friends and families have been rounded up and kept in the showgrounds.They are forced to pillage the houses and then retreat back to hell and stay low for a while while they figure out what to do. The Series is about how they try to rescue their friends and families without being caught themselves.

It is all very fast-paced and fun to read.

I give them a 9/10


The next series that I read is 'The House of Night' series by P.C. an Kristen Cast. I have only read up to the 4th book in this series and I am enjoying them greatly. They are about a girl named Zoey who is a regular girl until she is 'marked' and starts the change into a vampyre. She has to make the drastic move to 'The House of Night' which is an academy for vampyres. Zoey is special though when she was 'marked' she sped along the process a bit and is now further along the process of changing than the other fledglings- younger vampyres- and the series is about her highs and lows to do with this.

I give it a 8/10.



Airhead and Airhead: Being Nikki by Meg Cabot. In this trilogy a girl named Em Watts- Super geek- is killed in a shopping mall when a Plasma screen Tv falls on her and snaps her neck. At the same time though Super Model Nikki Howard has a supposed 'Brain Aneurysm' and also dies. When Em wakes up she finds herself in Nikkis body and is told that her life has been saved but that she is now Nikki Howard - Super Model - of course she totally freaks. This trilogy is about living life as someone else and trying not to give the game away.

I give it a 6.5/10


For Christmas I got Jessica Watson's Autobiography, Wuthering heights and a cool book called there were nine, three are dead, I am number four by Pittacus Lore.

I have already finished Jessica Watson's Autobiography and I am amazed that her parents let her do that! My parents would never let me sail around the world solo. Never in the world ( yes I intended it). Thanks Aunty Will, Dave, Anna and Soph! I haven't started the other two although I have read the first few pages of Wuthering Heights. And I must say It's pretty good.
