Book Review:Evernight

Evernight by Claudia Gray was suggested  by a friend who knew I was in a vampire phase. She told me that this time the girl was the vampire, which I found interesting because most of the books I have read the guy was the vamp. I liked this book, and even though I knew the heroine was a vampire when it actually happened it took me by surprise. The book keep me going until the end wondering what will happen next with her and her love interest Lucas, but also as usual the other guy Balthazar who the wise older yet very handsome vampire. Yet she has no interest in him. Lucas is not aware she is a vampire but he has a secret of his own that he is keeping from her.Her parents are vampires that by some miracle conceived her, one the few vampires babies that are born not made. Overall it is an intriguing book and currently I'm reading the second book in the series titled Stargazer.

Thirteen Reasons Why

I listened to this book by Jay Asher and all I can think is was it really that bad that she had to commit suicide. No, I don't think so after listening to the main character Hannah Baker, I have to disagree with her. None of the things that happened to her were extreme enough that she couldn't have dealt with it in some other way. There are people that have gone through the same things she did and dealt with it. People will talk about you no matter what, but that's all it is, talk.
