Peeps
Todays Book: Peeps
This is the original cover.

So recently I just finished reading Peeps. This one is actually a vampire novel, but it's not your typical vampire we're talking about.It's a disease. Peeps is all about parasites.
So here's how it goes:
Cal, the main character, has just moved to New York for school. It's his first night and he goes to a bar. It's actually a gay bar. So he's at this bar and then he meets this girl, Morgan. She takes him home. Next morning he goes home. Later on in the book he's hunting a peep. One of his girl-friends. Now he's explaining to this girl, Lace, what a peep is. Cal tells her that if your a peep, you have an STD. He explains almost everything he knows about peeps. The one thing he doesn't tell her: He's a peep.
Typically, peeps are monsters. Side effects: they have night vision, super strength, pretty much every thing is super sized, except body parts. Symptoms: they have a brood of rats, they hate everything they used to love. They try to kill. So why is Cal not trying to kill Lace?? Because he's a carrier peep. He has the disease and side-effects but not the symptoms.
When Cal goes peep hunting he discovers something weird. A peep cat. Cal's never heard of this. He reports it to his boss, and he tells Cal to capture it. So he captures it and finds out the peep cat has red eyes. The scientists do research. They find out that the disease is a dead-end with the cats. So everything should be ok. But it's not.....
Here is the other cover:

I'm assuming the girl on the left is Morgan and the one on the right is Lace. The guy is Cal.
There is another book called The Last Days but I haven't read it yet.

The Hunger Games
Next Series: The Hunger Games



Please don't tell about Catching Fire or Mockingjay if you've read it. I didn't want to spoil the series by putting the description for the other two! Enjoy!
The books in this series are: The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. A third book called Mockingjay is set to be released August 24.
The Hunger Games is a thrilling story about love and survival. Every year The Hunger Games are played and it's all about survival of the fittest. In The Games only one survives, the others are killed. You see what happens is 24 contestants are chosen, 2 from each district, one boy one girl, at random and sent to fight against one another. There are 12 districts and the Capital city, the Capitol, that make up, what used to be, North America.
These are the covers:
THE HUNGER GAMES

CATCHING FIRE

MOCKINGJAY

Midnighters
THE SECRET HOUR

TOUCHING DARKNESS

BLUE NOON

Like I said in my last post, The Midnghters Series is one of the best I've read.
In The Secret Hour Jessica has just moved to Bixby, Oklahoma. One night when she wakes up, it is 12:00. She looks out her window and is shocked. The rain has just stopped. Hanging in mid-air. Jessica goes out side and she walks through the rain and she is leaving a path behind her.
Here is a little summary I wrote for a school project:
When Jessica Day moves to Bixby, Oklahoma, she discovers a secret about Bixby. Time freezes at midnight. Everything freezes except for Jessica and four other teenagers.
The other four have these special talents; mindcaster, polymath, seer and well, flying. Jessica hasn’t found her talent yet and is disappointed.
While Jessica awaits the day to find her talent, Jessica and her new friends fight darklings and slithers that are after her.
Darklings are a creature that only exists in the midnight hour and they are the rulers. Slithers are like darklings but are much smaller and are like the darklings minions.
The five teens call themselves ‘Midnighters’ and the midnight hour ‘The Blue Time’, ‘The Secret Hour or ‘The 25th Hour’.
In Touching Darkness and Blue Noon the story continues from each of their views, like the first book. In Blue Noon time suddenly stops at noon, then at random times.
Read the books if you like a little bit of fantasy and some adventure! You'll love them!
Uglies Series
Ok, sorry I haven't posted in a loooooong time!! :( But I will be adding a few book series todayy!! :D So don't worry.
Here's another series by Scott Westerfeld: The Uglies Series
Uglies is a very good series. You would probably like it if you like action and adventure. It is set in the future.
** If you don't want to read about the 2nd, 3rd and 4th book, don't read after the summary for uglies!! **
UGLIES

PRETTIES

SPECIALS

EXTRAS

Tally Youngblood, the main character, can't wait to become pretty. But when her new friend, Shay, runs away, Tally has to find her before she can be pretty. Shay ran away because she doesn't want to be pretty. So Tally goes out to find her, when she does find Shay, Tally stays and doesn't tell Shay about what she was supposed to do: Find Shay and come back.
Here is a summary of Uglies from http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/24770.Uglies
Tally is about to turn sixteen, and she can't wait. Not for her license—for turning pretty. In Tally's world, your sixteenth birthday brings an operation that turns you from a repellent ugly into a stunningly attractive pretty and catapults you into a high-tech paradise where your only job is to have a really great time. In just a few weeks Tally will be there.
But Tally's new friend Shay isn't sure she wants to be pretty. She'd rather risk life on the outside. When Shay runs away, Tally learns about a whole new side of the pretty world—and it isn't very pretty. The authorities offer Tally the worst choice she can imagine: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. The choice Tally makes changes her world forever.

The authorities offer Tally the worst choice she can imagine: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. The choice Tally makes changes her world forever.
Tally has finally become pretty. Now her looks are beyond perfect, her clothes are awesome, her boyfriend is totally hot, and she's completely popular. It's everything she's ever wanted.
But beneath all the fun -- the nonstop parties, the high-tech luxury, the total freedom -- is a nagging sense that something's wrong. Something important. Then a message from Tally's ugly past arrives. Reading it, Tally remembers what's wrong with pretty life, and the fun stops cold.
Now she has to choose between fighting to forget what she knows and fighting for her life -- because the authorities don't intend to let anyone with this information survive.

Now she has to choose between fighting to forget what she knows and fighting for her life -- because the authorities don't intend to let anyone with this information survive.
The words have sent chills down Tally's spine since her days as a repellent, rebellious ugly. Back then Specials were a sinister rumor -- frighteningly beautiful, dangerously strong, breathtakingly fast. Ordinary pretties might live their whole lives without meeting a Special. But Tally's never been ordinary.
And now she's been turned into one of them: a superamped fighting machine, engineered to keep the uglies down and the pretties stupid.
The strength, the speed, and the clarity and focus of her thinking feel better than anything Tally can remember. Most of the time. One tiny corner of her heart still remembers something more.
Still, it's easy to tune that out -- until Tally's offered a chance to stamp out the rebels of the New Smoke permanently. It all comes down to one last choice: listen to that tiny, faint heartbeat, or carry out the mission she's programmed to complete. Either way, Tally's world will never be the same.
It's a few years after rebel Tally Youngblood took down the uglies/pretties/specials regime. Without those strict roles and rules, the world is in a complete cultural renaissance. "Tech-heads" flaunt their latest gadgets, "kickers" spread gossip and trends, and "surge monkeys" are hooked on extreme plastic surgery. And it's all monitored on a bazillion different cameras. The world is like a gigantic game of American Idol. Whoever is getting the most buzz gets the most votes. Popularity rules.
As if being fifteen doesn't suck enough, Aya Fuse's rank of 451,369 is so low, she's a total nobody. An extra. But that's just until she gets to kick a good story for herself.
Then Aya meets a clique of girls who pull crazy tricks, yet are deeply secretive of it. Aya wants desperately to kick their story, to show everyone how intensely cool the Sly Girls are. But doing so would propel her out of extra-land and into the world of fame, celebrity...and extreme danger. A world she's not prepared for.
