Eighth Grade Bites- Summary or No Summary?

Dear Fellow Twilighters,

I have decided to stop my summaries of the Blue Bloods series so you'll have to read the books by your self.

I have recently finished the first book, Eighth Grade Bites by Heather Brewer, in The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod. It was a good book that I would recommend to any young reader who likes vampire novels. It is told in third person, telling the views of others at times, just like Blue Bloods. I will not be posting a summary on this (at the moment) because I have to write a two page, in depth, English essay on this book; unless I change my mind in the future (and there is a good chance of that).

My mom surprised me when I got home from school today with a new book! The second instalment of the series above- Ninth Grade Slays. Also, to make my very joyful, I have received my invitation to the eighth grade dance! It is masquerade themed just like the after party in Masquerade by Melissa De La Cruz. I love the whole idea of everyone not knowing who is who which will be a pain for the chaperons. It's very romantic and it makes me think of the scene in Much Ado About Nothing by Shakespeare where Beatrice knows it is Benedick behind his mask and is insulting him (making fun of him, not being mean.) and he doesn't have a clue who is behind her mask. I laugh every time I think about it!

To get to the Twilight part of my post- my sister and cousin had a New Moon party the other night where she watched Twilight and New Moon back to back with a whole bunch of junk food. The perfect girls night. My cousin was very upset at the fact that Bella took so long to get to Edward when he was about to reveal himself to everyone in Voltera. She was like, "I would've been screaming and pushing everyone out of the way. I'd say 'GET OUT OF THE WAY! i NEED TO SAVE MY MAN", and I kinda agree that the scene took a little longer than it should've.

Ok, I've got homework so I'm out. -- Lell

Catching Up on Every Day Twi-References

Dear Fellow Twilighters,

As you know I like to compare my life to the world of Twilight very often and have been neglecting to post here. I'm so sorry. Let's catch up on some things.

Last month: Teachers have been freaking me out with their knowledge about Twilight and how much my friends are picking up on this also. One of my friends made a joke about what my history teacher had said. It was pretty funny but I guess you had to be there. Here it goes any way! "Bella can stare a a wall for four months crying while you can stare at a wall for four seconds and start laughing!" It's not that funny but then again it was to me. A compliment on my good natured disposition. After that she made me a semi-poster of all things vampire (which I will post later.) .

Recently: I have finished The Van Alen Legacy and will be posting my summary on Revelations as well as the other book. Also, my English teach gave our class an assignment where we have to keep track of the books we read and why we read them. (See paragraph below.)

I have found a great new-ish series by heather Brewer called The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod. Book one is called Eighth Grade Bites. As you can tell by the title, the main character is Vladimir Tod. An eighth grade vampire discovering his powers and how to control his thirst. He has been living with his Aunt Nelly for three years just after his parents combusted into ashes. He is half vampire though. His mother was human and his father a creature of the night. Vlad does not drink human blood directly (Aunt Nelly is a nurse and is very handy when Vlad needs some blood. He only takes donations from the hospital.) The only human he as ever bitten was his best friend Henry, when he was eight, and from then on he has been the only person's thought Vlad could read.

And that's just the begging. Pick up the book for yourself if you wish- it's a very good find. I'll post more often; as often as I can. -- Lell

Eclipse Trailer

Dear Fellow Twilighters,

YAY!!!!! The new full length Eclipse trail was released this morning!!!!! My excitement has been rejuvenated after seeing this clip. It's posted on the Official New Moon Widget above. I hope everyone is as excited as I am for spring break, if your already on break then good for you. I have good news to all; the fifth Blue Bloods book Misguided Angle is on it's way- October 5, 2010 is the official release date, plus, I finished The Van Allen Legacy! (I still have to put up the summary on Revelations so be patient!) So, be on the look out for anything pertaining to Blue Bloods/ Eclipse. I've attached a few links bellow and if you like them or think you might like them, click on them. I get no money for it so feel free to click. Ok, I'm signing off now..... Lell

p.s. I can't believe Summit Entertainment replaced Rachelle Lefevre (Victoria) with Bryce Dallas Howard, although I am impressed on how close they made the new Victoria look like the old one. It's like spooky good! And thanks to http://www.daemonsmovies.com for the comparison picture of Rachelle and Bryce, and to http://eclipsemovie.org for the other picture of the two Victorias from the films. Can you tell which Victoria is which?
