He is one of the guys that is left with the nations biggest secret he gets to be a "caretaker" for the nation's vampire. Who would have thought that we would control one right? Well, they go of course on some adventures to try and keep the nation from entering darkness that we couldn't even imagine. 
Its a good start to an amazing series I'm sure. I haven't been able to finish the second one I will have to check it out again in the mean time I haven been reading other books. I did enjoy this book and can't wait to "sink my teeth" into the next one :P Am I cheesy or what?!



Pages: 190 Author: Susan Hatler Genre: Short fiction


Gina just got out of a 10 year relationship that wasn't going anywhere and she swears off men that won't commit right as her friend is getting married and she needs a date. So while the other bridesmaids set her up with her "dream man" a friend from work who is leaving the company asks her to pretend to be his girlfriend at his new company dinner get together as things heat up between them and the secrets spill on their feelings for one another she now has to choose...the guy her friends think is a good match or the guy that makes her swoon? 
I enjoyed reading it. In all honesty i could have finished it in one sitting if I had more of a life, but alas I don't. I enjoyed reading this and I would recommend it if you need a short romance for a nice pickme up. I hope to be able to get my hands on more of her writing soon. :)

Friendship Bread


Pages: 363 Author: Darien Gee Genre: Fiction

Julia and her sweet 5 year old daughter Gracie get home and find this bag on their porch, Julia had all intentions of just throwing it out but who wants to crush the heart of a little 5 year old that wants to bake what is inside? After baking it she runs into some new people and hands them the extra starter bags which begins the tail of new friendship and a bit of a new start for them all who all have their own secrets and pains. Soon, the whole town is filled with friendship bread and starters overflowing from the freezers until a flooding of a neighborhood city brings little Avalon together and they bake what they have to give to the poor town and spread the love, and lifts everyone's spirits in unlikely ways!
Although the site I use www.goodreads.com says its 400 pages the actual story only goes to 363 and the rest is recipies for Amish Friendship Bread if you feel like starting your own "chain mail" of bread or whatever you choose to make! I loved this book it was hard to put down and it really pulls at your heart. I would recommend every woman to read this book or hear it from an audio it is such a heart-felt story that you just don't want to keep to yourself!

Things Without A Name



                                          Pages: 392    Author: Joanne Fedler  Genre: Fiction
Her name is Faith, but consequently she doesn't have any in anything that is happy. She doesn't believe in happiness or true love. She works as a legal counciller at a company that helps woman who are being raped or in a abusive relationship.
There were some parts that it made it hard to follow on what was going on in what part of her life since it jumps back and forth from current to bits and pieces of her past. It wasn't what I was expecting to really read either but I'm glad I found it and continued to read it. It was very hard for me to put down I really enjoyed reading it. I got to know Faith and a part of me on a whole new level.

On another note I have read some books inbetween this one and the last post but I forgot to write it down/blog it. So, with it being a new year I'll try and be better about posting the books I finish!
