Demon in My View

Summary: Ugh.
Review: I picked up this book looking for something interesting to read.

And I must say I was a bit jealous to find that this author is a year younger than I am and has an array of books published.

But you know what? I'm no longer jealous. Because a retarded monkey could come up with better character developments and plots than Ms. Atwater-Rhodes has put in this novel.

I barely got halfway through this book when I threw it across the room, finished with the drivel that she called a story. It immediately earned a place next to Foxfire and To Ride a Silver Broomstick in my collection of "Books I would never sell to anyone for I would not want them to suffer by reading this crap."

Save yourself some time and buy anything by LJ Smith, Kelley Armstrong, or (dare I say it) Anne Rice. Even Ms. Rice is better than this girl, and I hate that woman.

Summary: Shows promise
Review: Overall the plot was great, but the writing was lacking. like wearing a sweater that is two sizes to big. She should have tightened up more. I recommend MIDNIGHT PREDATOR instead.

Summary: Good But Lacking
Review: The book is well written and has a good story to it, but lacked that little leap of detail and passion in the characters. The fact that it is a book based on teenage vampires doesn't help much, however this is also a book for 'teenagers'. I suggest this book for teenagers who do like a good vampire read under the juvenille section.

Summary: Pleasant Short Read
Review: Good book, I read it within a few hours, and although it's not an on the edge of your seat page-turner, it follows a consistent plot line and she effectively throws in a couple twists. Jessica the female lead in the book is written as a strong heroine. This is a "PG" rated book. I thought upon picking up Demon In My View that it didn't seem like it belonged in the Young Adult Genre, but it's accurately placed. Although some sparks fly between Audrey (our heroine protecting vampire) and Jessica it's all very innocent. I would recommend checking this book out at the library before purchasing it.

As far as the story line goes, Jessica finds out that the fictional paranormal stories aren't so fictional. Not all of her characters are so happy about how they are portrayed. So Audrey her vampire lead is sent out to check out this "Mysterious Author" and make sure things get taken care of. He likes her of course because she is a very independent individual with lots of inner strength. All in all a decent read.

If you are looking for something that is well written and has a bit more bite, I highly recommend Simon Green and his Nightside Novels.

Summary: ***Fun 2 Read Luv'd It Lotz***
Review: I loved this book it was a very well put together and creative book. I think that the writer(Amelia Atwater-Rhodes) has an extremely creative mind. I would recommend this book to anyone into action, adventure, mystical, imaginative, and strangely romantic books. The reason I gave it 4/5 stars is because I absolutely loved the book, but there was a small amount of the parts of the book were almost hard to follow, like the blood lines (for instance).

This book is about a girl named Jessica. Jessica is a very odd girl who lives with her aunt, and she loves to write and create mystic stories. Every day she goes to school as the outcast type and doesn't have any friends, but she has learned to live with it. One day a girl named Caryn comes to Jessica's school and tries to be her friend, but Jessica will not let her, and tells her to go away. A few days later a hot new guy, named Aubrey, comes to her school, and is exactly like one of the characters in her books. She has a huge crush on him instantly, and he soon becomes her friend. Little did she know there was something very particular about this boy, something that is very odd to even imagine, and whatever it is Caryn doesn't like him for it, and he doesn't like her neither... so I will let you read this awesome book and discover it for yourself(it`s a real page turner).
