Frostbite by Richelle Mead

Frostbite: Richelle Mead


Rose Hathaway's got serious guy trouble. Her gorgeous tutor Dimitri has his eye on someone else, her friend Mason has a huge crush on her, and she keeps getting stuck in her best friend Lissa's head while she's making out with her boyfriend, Christian. (So not cool).

Then a massive Strigoi attack puts St. Vladimir's on high alert, and the Academy crawls with Guardians--including the legendary Janine Hathaway...Rose's formidable, long-absent mother. The Strigoi are closing in, and the Academy's not taking any risks. This year, St. Vlad's annual holiday ski trip is mandatory.

But the glittering winter landscape and the posh Idaho resort only provide the illusion of safety. When three students run away to strike back against the deadly Strigoi, Rose must join forces with Christian to rescue them. Only this time, Rose--and her heart--are in more danger than she ever could have imagined...

Okay, so this book was like night and dark when compared to the first one. I liked the first one and all (and by the first one I am of course referring to The Vampire Academy) but this book upstaged it in so many ways, and made me understand the first one better. There was finally some unique plot, character build up, excitement, and a little more romance. Phew! Although, there were points where I found myself a little bored, and that is why it didn't receive a 5/5. It ended perfectly, and it complimented the first story very well. Definitely pick this series up.

You may be thinking, ughhhhh not another vampire novel. But trust me, these vampires are like no other vampires I've ever read about.

Happy Reading, ♥ Jessica

Check out Jessica's latest Borders Haul



Jessica went to Borders recently, and she wants to show you what she got! :)

Check out the first Chapter of Burned

P.C. & Kristen Cast released the first chapter to her upcoming installment in the House of Night novels, Burned! You can check it out here! I personally have read the first four of the House of Night novels, and you can check out my review of Untamed on our youtube channel. I absolutely LOVE this cover, although, I don't know who that blond chick is. What do you guys think of the novels, and are you guys excited for Burned? It goes on sale April 27th, 2010.

Freakcast Oopsie.

Okay guys. We have an announcement concerning Freakcast. You all picked The Forest of Hands and Teeth by Carrie Ryan as our next chapter by chapter. HOWEVER after reading both Hunger Games and Catching Fire (books we have all already read) we REALLY want to do something we haven't read, so we don't give away any spoilers. Because when we've all read it, it is hard not to discuss the stuff that happens later and how it relates to what was happening now. And since we're spoiler nazi's and really prefer not to give any away, we figured we had better take a break with the books we have read. So, we promise, we WILL do one on Forest of Hands and Teeth, but for the next one we're going to do stuff we haven't read. BUT you get to choose again, just this time we're only going to give books that we haven't read as options. So look for a new poll around Monday, maybe sooner.

We're really sorry if this truly effects anyone, but we're doing it not only for us, but for you guys too!

On a brighter note, we're inching closer and closer to 250 subscribers on YouTube, and as you may not know, we're giving away a t-shirt when we reach it! So recommend us to your reader-freaky-friends! :)

Happy Reading! ♥ Jessica
