The Tale of Two Pretties: A Clique Novel

              If you have not even picked up The Clique, then you are either a guy, or a major slacker. It is not like the other series associated with it, like Gossip Girl, or The A-List. Lisi Harrison goes much deeper in her characters, and they are only shallow on the outside. Personally, I even prefer The A-List over Gossip Girl, and I'm wondering why Gossip Girl is the one that got turned into a show.
             I just finished reading The Tale of Two Pretties, which, alas, is the last book in the series. All the girls are keeping secrets, secrets that could break up the Pretty Committee. Now, what those secrets are, I am so not telling. In the end, all the secrets come out, as they tend to do, and Massie is faced with a terrible decision, one that could change their lives forever. But change is good, right?

     Now, who here has heard of Crash Bandicoot? (crowd cheers insanely) Okay, does anyone know what a bandicoot is? (lots of head scratching and confuzzled looks) Didn't think so. Well, you're about to.

The Vampire Diaries- The Return: Shadow Souls

                    L.J. Smith's Vampire Diaries series is a perfect remedy for the vampiritis that's been going around. However, the novels don't exactly follow the original vampire rules; you know, burnt by sunlight, killed only by wooden stakes, invincible... the list could go on, but I think I'll stop there. The only rule that she follows is the wooden stake thing, except that, unlike most vampire books, she offers an explanation. Apparently, there is a chemical in trees that is super-toxic to vampires. I'm repeating the word "vampire" a lot, maybe there are synonyms...
    Nope, none that aren't offensive, and I wouldn't want that big guy, Sage coming after me. ANyway, this yarn is about a girl named Elena Gilbert, who died twice in the previous book, one I have yet to read, and is trying to decide between two brothers, Damon and Stefan, who happen to be vampires. Personally, I am rooting for Damon, but things aren't looking so good for him, because Stefan is Elena's soulmate. *Sigh* So, Stefan is trapped in the Dark Dimension, and Damon is the only one who can get her there. With the help of Elena's two best friends, Bonnie and Meredith, and another vampire, Sage, who also brings the help of his huge dog and hawk, they go to the Dark Dimension. And if they make it back, well I'm not giving anything away. This is a book review, not a book report.
