Tempted...

B got me into this series and Im so glad she did. It is a Young Adult book, but Im starting to learn these are the best kind of books, haha.

This is the the 6th book in the House of Night Series and it doesnt even seem like there has already been 6 because they are full of suspense and scandal!!
You can read the first chapter over on B's blog, or the book just came out this week!

Aaaand yes it is about vampires, but its actually a lot better than some of the stuff out there. Like some of those books are just a little too ridiculous- I tried reading the Vampire Diaries and I couldnt finish it... but these are totes worth checking out.

Next meeting...

So I was thinking we can have the next meeting on Friday Nov 6th? We can still do it at RRVH or if we want something a little healthier... haha... we can maybe do something like Cafe Rio?

I know this is kind of getting off to a slow start because the first book we chose wasnt really easy to get into but I think we have an excellent selection to choose from now so Im really optimistic about the next book.

Let me know if this works or not, we can always change as we need to.

Go Read!

The first book we picked to read is going to be Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, by Jane Austen and Ben H Winters.



Synopsis:

Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters expands the original text of the beloved Jane Austen novel with all-new scenes of giant lobsters, rampaging octopi, two-headed sea serpents, and other biological monstrosities.

As our story opens, the Dashwood sisters are evicted from their childhood home and sent to live on a mysterious island full of savage creatures and dark secrets. While sensible Elinor falls in love with Edward Ferrars, her romantic sister Marianne is courted by both the handsome Willoughby and the hideous man-monster Colonel Brandon.

Can the Dashwood sisters triumph over meddlesome matriarchs and unscrupulous rogues to find true love? Or will they fall prey to the tentacles that are forever snapping at their heels? It's survival of the fittest and only the swiftest swimmers will find true love!

Enjoy!

OH and yes we had Delish RRVH for dinner with our first meeting. It was great.
aaand this is what Brandi's fortune said:

"Now is a good time for serenity: a book and a good friend"
