Real Vampires Hate Skinny Jeans

Real Vampires Hate Skinny Jeans
By:Gerry Bartlett
Published:April 3, 2012

Someone is eating for two...

Full-figured vampire Glory St. Clair thinks things are finally going her way. She's no longer possessed by a demon, the legions of hell aren't on her tail, and her love life is heating up since she managed to reconnect with her maker-and longtime lover-Jeremy Blade.

When a pregnant demon shows up on her doorstep, Glory knows that everything is about to go to hell. Alesa is claiming that the baby she's carrying is Rafe's, conceived while she was inhabiting Glory's body. A clever trap? Or could it be true?

Booties and bibs are the last thing on Glory's mind when she discovers dark secrets from her own forgotten past. Who is she? What is she? And how will the men in her life deal with the fact that she may be more powerful than she knew? One thing is certain. Glory has way more to worry about than fitting into her favorite pair of jeans...



My Thoughts:
I hate Alesa so much, dang demons, excluding Rafe of course. Glory is just too nice, she just helps Alesa out, after all she did to her. Rafe can't seem to get away from Alesa, she is the worst stalker ever. Ian just makes all that Glory is going through worse, and Glory just has to have answers which ends up leaving her with more questions than ever.

After Glory St. Clair kicked out the demon that had set up shop in her body, she had a serious fallout with longtime lover Jeremy Blade. But before Glory can win him back, she has some issues of the hellish variety to deal with.

When Lucifer himself offers Glory the ultimate temptation-work for the devil and he'll make her a size six-the curvy vampire's not sure if she can resist. But what Glory does know is that somehow, she's going to get back the man she loves and show everyone that real vampires always have more to love.









My Thoughts:
I love this whole series, and each book gets funnier. I thought that this one was a riot, and it upset me all at the same time. Glory always seems to find trouble but always seems to recover well,but what girl wouldn't recover with guys like Jeremy, Rafe and Ray loving you and supporting me! I hope that this series just keeps getting better. I wanted to kill Lucifer at one point for doing Glory so wrong but what did I expect he is the devil after all. Its so hard not to pull for Rafe and Glory even when you're pulling for Jeremy and Glory too. I loved that ghosts,whos names have escaped me at the moment, came back in the picture, they are so funny.

Small Medium at Large Review

 Small Medium and Large
By: Joanne Levy
Expected by publication:July 3, 2012

After she’s hit by lightning at a wedding, twelve-year-old Lilah Bloom develops a new talent: she can hear dead people. Among them, there’s her overopinionated Bubby Dora; a prissy fashion designer; and an approval-seeking clown who livens up a séance. With Bubby Dora leading the way, these and other sweetly imperfect ghosts haunt Lilah through seventh grade, and help her face her one big fear: talking to—and possibly going to the seventh-grade dance with—her crush, Andrew Finkel.







My Thoughts
I really enjoyed this book it was good and to the point, not a lot of unnecessary details that have nothing to do with the plot. The characters were funny and likable. I hope there will be more

If I Die Review

 If I Die
By: Rachel Vincent
Published:September 27,2011

Goodreads Synopsis:
The entire school's talking about the gorgeous new math teacher, Mr. Beck. Everyone except Kaylee Cavanaugh. After all, Kaylee's no ordinary high-school junior. She's a banshee—she screams when someone dies.

But the next scream might be for Kaylee.

Yeah—it's a shock to her, too. So to distract herself, Kaylee's going to save every girl in school. Because that hot new teacher is really an incubus who feeds on the desire of unsuspecting students. The only girls immune to his lure are Kaylee and Sabine, her boyfriend's needy 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 borrowed lifeline is nearing its end. And those who care about her will do anything to save her life.

Anything.


My Thoughts:
I loved this book I didn't think it would be better than My soul to steal but it was.I'm definitely team Tod now and will stay that way!! This book was wonderful, the plot was the best so far and definitely makes me want to read before I wake. Tod was awesome and different in this story, and that was my favorite part. I loved that Kaylee always does the righteous thing no matter what and in the end everything worked out kinda.

Never to Sleep Review

 Never To Sleep
By: Rachel Vincent
Published:January 1,2012

Goodreads Synopsis:
 Don't Close Your Eyes.

Sophie Cavanaugh is not going to let her freak of a cousin's strange psychiatric condition ruin high school for them both. Not after all the work she's put into cultivating the right look, and friends, and reputation. But then, Sophie sees something so frightening she lets out a blood-curdling scream—and finds herself stuck in a bizarre parallel world where nothing is safe and deadly creatures lurk just out of sight, waiting for her to close her eyes and sleep...forever.

Could this world be real? Or does insanity run in the family...?


My thoughts:
This was Sophie's book, and it was interesting seeing Sophie in that situation. Luca was an interesting twist and I can't wait to read Before I wake to find out what he's up to. This novella happened during If I die, and unfortunately no light was shed in that book but at the end it tells you to look forward to Before I wake for more, so waiting for before I wake to come out.

MySoul to Steal Review

My Soul to Steal
By:Rachel Vincent
Published:January 14,2011 

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.




My Thoughts:
I have to say this is now my favorite soul screamer book. I love all the emotional termoil the characters were going through and the love triangle made it amusing. I love how the further I get into the series the more Tod seems to act like a human rather than a reaper with no humanity. I love that no matter what Kaylee does she can't seem to get away from trouble even though she is a good person and tries to do the right thing. I feel bad for Kaylee and Sabine because they are just so hopeless either way. Nash just can't get anything right and Tod is just becoming this knight in shinning armor.
