Rainy Day Spotlight on Vampires


Since I did a spotlight on angel books I thought it was only fair that I did a spotlight on vampires. I realize many teenage girls are obsessed with a vampire named Edward Cullen. Yes, I am talking about Twilight. In truth, the books do deserve some credit. The Twilight series by Stephanie Meyer is a very good series. I don't feel that I need to say much about them because by now most people know the series. My only statement is that they are PG romance up until book 3, when they go into PG-13 mode. In some ways they remind me of the Harry Potter phenomenon. Great books for readers who might not otherwise read....does that make sense? hmmm...I think they are great books for teens.


If you are not a teen: grab some chocolate and one of these books!
I highly recommend the "Black Dagger Brotherhood" series by J.R. Ward and "The Midnight Breed" series by Lara Adrian. These books are really good! I mean really REALLY good if you are interested by a hot vampire warrior. Let me explain.... pulse racing, take a deep breath while reading type of books. And despite the fact that they look like a cheesy romance novel they have really great plots with multiple twists that leave you very curious where the battles are heading. And yes, battles are fought in these books. Both authors also do an excellent job of character development. Since each series includes so many books the authors have the time to really develop each character and they do a great job. You will not be disappointed in these books. And do not laugh at how many I have....Yes I know, it's a bit much, but what can I say, my hubby works late :)

  3. Oh Denise! How can you resist? I crave my alone reading time- it's my escape. When I'm really old and wrinkly I'm going to need girl scouts to come read to me - lol!
