Cast, P.C. and Cast, Kristin =﻿Marked-The House of Night Series Book 1= **__ Cast, P.C. __** **__ Cast, Kristin __** **//__ Marked __//****__ -House of Night Series __** // Marked // is a captivating, mysterious vampire thriller that will reel you in and keep you reading until the last page is turned. In this novel, P.C. Cast and Kristin Casts’ 16 year old main character named Zoey Montgomery lived a normal life as a normal teenager-tests, parents, and boys were her biggest problems. However, when she least expected it, her life, identity, and humanity changed forever. This was the day she turned into a vampire. Displaying the forever dreaded crescent moon mark on her forehead to symbolize her new identity as a fledgling vampire, she was whisked away to the House of Night-a dark school for young vampires. Still reeling from the change of events her life took, she has a vision of meeting the vampire goddess of night, Nyx, and being told that she was unique and would have special powers to save the hidden vampire world from the cold-blooded humans. Eventually finding loyal friends and finally starting to get used to the strange new place she was thrust into, she meets a snobby mean girl named Aphrodite. This girl was the leader of the Dark Daughters, an exclusive club of vampires performing rituals and misusing the powers they were given. Zoey Redbird, as she is now called, knows deep inside her that she has to stop this girl and uses her newly developed powers to do it. Over a couple of weeks, Zoey starts to recognize that the goddess’s statement was true. She started developing powers of the elements-air, fire, water, earth, and spirit. These elements represent the spiritual and religious beliefs of the vampires and her affinity for all of these elements symbolizes her unusual and special powers. Zoey starts facing insecurities and feels worried about being different, however, she starts to realize that being unique is sometimes more life-changing than fitting in. Will Zoey be able to defeat this girl, keep her friends, and grow spiritually and physically into the powerful vampire she was meant to become, or will all the pressure of this new lifestyle break her down and cause her to give up? With a little help from her friends, Zoey uses her Goddess-given gifts to get past the memories of her old human life and walk straight into the unknown and magical fate that awaits her. With all of these mysteries and magical journeys, how will you ever be able to put this book down?

I **thought that this book was not Christopher Paul Curtis' best. I thought that it was o.k. but that the mystery part should have started much sooner. This book is heart felt and worth reading.

When Katniss' 12 year old sister is picks she volunteers to take her place.

So far it is my favorite book in the series, Secrets of My Hollywood Life. It is the 5th book in the series, and my favorite! HIGHLY recommend this book if you like some drama, but not too much. You learn a lot about what Hollywood life is really like, since it isn't as fabulous and easy as you think! The main character of this book, and the celebrity, is Kaitlin Burke, whose next big career move is going to be a Broadway show in New York! This book fills you in on what it's like to be a celebrity while adding an exciting story to go along with it! Broadway stars are a whole different type of diva, which Kaitlin, doesn't realize, especially when she is still trying to juggle a boyfriend who is at camp, working with a cute new costar, and having an enemy in her cast. How is Kaitlin going to handle this? Read the book to find out!!!!! Emma 7th Grade
