Streetwise, tough and savvy, his quick sarcasm is the stuff of legends. . .until the night when his best friends try to kill him. Saved by a mysterious warrior who has more fighting skills than Chuck Norris, Nick is sucked into the realm of the Dark-Hunters: immortal vampire slayers who risk everything to save humanity.<br />Nick quickly learns that the human world is only a veil for a much larger and more dangerous one: a world where the captain of the football team is a werewolf and the girl he has a crush on goes out at night to stake the undead.<br />But before he can even learn the rules of this new world, his fellow students are turning into flesh eating zombies. And he’s next on the menu.<br />As if starting high school isn't hard enough. . .now Nick has to hide his new friends from his mom, his chainsaw from the principal, and keep the zombies and the demon Simi from eating his brains, all without getting grounded or suspended. How in the world is he supposed to do that?</span></span></span><br /><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 18px; "><br /></span></span></span>Jolovesbookshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11697597039552653979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8362929135889520732.post-28960999217969082722010-05-21T07:52:00.001-07:002010-05-21T07:52:25.141-07:00<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', Trebuchet, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 21px; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: 15px; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); ">Future Favorites is a weekly blog feature here at The Book Host.

Kate’s father has died, leaving her alone in the world. And a mysterious fog now covers the countryside, ruining crops and spreading fear of hunger and sickness.

It’s a chance for her to start over, to find a home, a family, a place to belong.

The Sisterhood always knows best. The Guardians will protect and serve. The Unconsecrated will never relent. And you must always mind the fence that surrounds the village; the fence that protects the village from the Forest of Hands and Teeth. But, slowly, Mary’s truths are failing her. She’s learning things she never wanted to know about the Sisterhood and its secrets, and the Guardians and their power, and about the Unconsecrated and their relentlessness. When the fence is breached and her world is thrown into chaos, she must choose between her village and her future—between the one she loves and the one who loves her. And she must face the truth about the Forest of Hands and Teeth. Could there be life outside a world surrounded in so much death?</span></b></span></span></div></div></span>Jolovesbookshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11697597039552653979noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8362929135889520732.post-89684358811187803722010-02-21T09:27:00.000-08:002010-02-21T09:28:32.764-08:00<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; color: rgb(45, 110, 137); "><br /><br /><blockquote style="margin-top: 1em; margin-right: 20px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 20px; "><img alt="The Iron King by Julie Kagawa" align="right" src="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y274/Stapps/n331924.jpg" width="200" style="padding-top: 4px; padding-right: 4px; padding-bottom: 4px; padding-left: 4px; border-top-width: 1px; border-right-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px; border-top-style: solid; border-right-style: solid; border-bottom-style: solid; border-left-style: solid; border-top-color: rgb(169, 80, 27); border-right-color: rgb(169, 80, 27); border-bottom-color: rgb(169, 80, 27); border-left-color: rgb(169, 80, 27); " /><strong>The Iron King by Julie Kagawa</strong><br /><br /><em>Meghan Chase has a secret destiny—one she could never have imagined…<br /><br />Something has always felt slightly off in Meghan's life, ever since her father disappeared before her eyes when she was six. She has never quite fit in at school…or at home.<br /><br />When a dark stranger begins watching her from afar, and her prankster best friend becomes strangely protective of her, Meghan senses that everything she's known is about to change.<br /><br />But she could never have guessed the truth—that she is the daughter of a mythical faery king and is a pawn in a deadly war. Now Meghan will learn just how far she'll go to save someone she cares about, to stop a mysterious evil no faery creature dare face…and to find love with a young prince who might rather see her dead than let her touch his icy heart.</em> From Amazon US</blockquote><div><br /></div></span>Jolovesbookshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11697597039552653979noreply@blogger.com0
