House of Night: Betrayed by P.C. & Kristen Cast

Blurb:

All any of us could talk about was CHRIS'S DISAPPEARANCE and how BIZARRE it was that he had last been seen so close to the HOUSE OF NIGHT. I didn't want to believe it. But everything inside me siad that the kid would be found, but he's be found DEAD...
Things seem to be going pretty well for Zoey Redbird. She's settled in at the House of Night finishing school and is coming to terms with her incredible new powers. It all seems too good to be true. And guess what?
Someone has begun murdering human teenages, and all evidence point to the vampyres at Zoey's school. Which means her first assignment as the leader of the Dark Daughters is finding out which one of her classmates or - gulp - teachers is a killer.
Sigh. And she thought her boyfriends (yes: plural) were going to be her biggest problem this year..

Review:

I liked this book but all I am saying is that I Liked it. Personally, not one of my favourite series but it is a good one. This book is slow for the start but then everything happened in about five chapters when I really like it when is builds up. It was sad though. But that was for one minute and it didn't last as long as I would have wanted.

House of Night: Marked by P.C. & Kristen Cast

Blurb:

So the BAD NEWS was that I'd have to move into the HOUSE OF NIGHT, a private boarding school, known by all my friends as the VAMPYRE FINISHING SCHOOL, where I would spend the next four years going through BIZARRE and unnameable physical changes, as a total and permanent life SHAKE-UP. And that's only if the whole process didn't kill me.

But the GOOD NEWS was that I wouldn't have to take the GEOMETRY TEST tomorrow.

When sixteen-year-old Zoey is marked by the Tracker, she knows her old life is over. Now she has to leave her friends and family to join the House of Night school, where there's only one subject Zoey needs to study: Vampyre 101.

Of course, there's always a catch, and this one's nice and simple: if you fail, you die...

Review:

I like the book... once I got into it and that took me twice. I started it and then put it down because I got bored. But once she got to the House of Night, it got better. The characters are utterly believeable. It isn't like a lot of books like this where all different cultures are influenced and a lot of different ways of life are there. The one thing I can put down on this book is that it had a slow start. But thats it. I liked the fact that the humans knew about vampyres but that fact that she was powerful and one of the only vampyre fledglings with a full mark and I found that quite predictable, but that's what makes a story, right?
