Book Review: My Blood Approves

My Blood Approves


A couple of months ago I was searching the Nook library for cheap interesting books. I find a few, but the one that really struck my interest was the book My Blood Approves. I didn't really have much time to read it while I was in school. I read a little here and there in some of my spare moments. I didn't get to really get into it until a few weeks ago. One I sat down and truly started reading, I couldn't put it down. It got really good and I just had to know what happened next with each page turn. The cover is pretty, but it isn't fascinating like most books that are coming out these days. I think the other ones in the series are better. I like that every book cover in the series connects together.
Here is the other books:
My Blood ApprovesFate (My Blood Approves, Book 2)Flutter (My Blood Approves, Book 3)Wisdom (My Blood Approves, #4)
The first book Cost:
Paperback on Amazon: $8.99 (the link My Blood Approves)
Barnes and Noble Nook Book: $0.99 ( the link)

Trust me this book is worth that 99 cents! Even if you don't like nook books, its worth the 8.99 too!
I really loved this book. Yeah it has the vampire theme everyone seems to be using these days, but to me the characters were original and it had a few twist to it.

(Now on may contain some spoilers)
I think I might like the wrong male character. Since I have only read the first book I try not to choose who I want to end up with who. But I can't help myself, I really like Peter. I have a feeling that Alice is going to end up with Jack. Don't get me wrong I like Jack. But every since we found out about them being vampires, he acts a little too childish. I know being a vampire, in this book, it takes several years for them to mature, but come on. You don't have to make him seem like he's 12. Peter....ah Peter. He is so mysterious and dark. He wants her then he doesn't want her. He tries his best to refuse her, but its taking a tole on him. Seriously Peter she was made for you! They have a bond, let the magic happen! I hope I get more peter-alice-sexy-ness! I haven't had the chance to start the second book yet, but I hope to soon. 

Right now I'm currently reading Vampire Academy Signature Edition: A Vampire Academy Novel and Evil in Carnations (Flower Shop Mysteries, No. 8). I mainly reading Vampire Academy though. So far it's pretty good. I have no idea what I'm going to read next. I have so many reads on my TBR list its crazy! Tomorrow I will definitely post a picture of all of the books.

My New Home Away From Home

Hey guys! Today started a new chapter in my life. I officially moved into my dorm at my college. I gotta tell ya I'm exhausted! >.< I cleaned, and I mean CLEANED my dorm room good! I'm not really a clean freak, but when it comes to public places like a dorm room, hotel, anything really public I am. Think about it, there is no telling who has been in this dorm room, what has been done in this dorm room, and if this dorm room has ever really been cleaned. Maybe its just me. Lol. I still haven't gotten the chance to meet my roommate. I don't even know her name. She got here way before I did, unpacked all of her stuff, and then left. I don't think she has been back since then. Well we don't actually start our classes until Monday, but they let the residents go ahead and move in last Wednesday. I moved most of my stuff in that day, except my fridge and shower supplies (like shower shows!!! hahaha). That's the stuff I moved in today. I was going to stay on Wednesday night, but it was really hot in my room. I could barely breathe. It felt like 80 degrees up in that joint. So today I brought me a fan. I finally got my room cooled off. I hope my roommate isn't cold nature..... Well if she is hopefully we can compromise somehow. >.> I decided that I would share the pictures I took of my dorm room. 







Of course I'm not completely finished decorating it. I'm just whipped out today. I even brought the books that are in the giveaway so I can shipped them right out once I know who wins, contact them, and they contact me  back with their info. I would have felt extremely awful if the winner would've had to wait weeks before they got it. 

Oh yes I almost forget to tell you peeps!! Ok today was my first time ever going grocery shopping by myself. I mean I went to grab a few things every once in awhile back home for my parents, of course my friends were the cashiers and bag boys. Anyways, I was "buggieING" along and like everyone is staring at me! Ok I'm 4"11 and look really young, but come on people I'm 18! It's not like I'm five years old buying grocery. So the whole time I'm shopping, I'm laughing my ass off at the people giving me weird looks. I think its just so funny! Oh here's the good part! I get up to the check-out line and I have a really cute guy as my cashier. He asked me if I had an Ingles card, I told him no I just moved here. Well that struck up a conversation between us. He just moved here from Ohio. We talked and talked until the old guy came up behind me wanting to check out, I'm thinking of all check-out lines you had to come to mine?!?! The cute cashier guy was really sweet. At least now I have something to look forward to, when I go to the grocery store! :) Oh and sorry boys. I know that was more of a girl thing. But I thought I would share it with you!!

Update- Still reading Nightshade. A little over half-way finished with it though! The blog hop is going great guys! Thanks for those of you who became followers!! I joined another blog hop giveaway. It start Jan. 14. I explain more about it when it gets closer to the date. I have no idea what I'm giving away yet. I might giveaway the books that's left over from this one, but throw in something extra. I don't know yet though! 

Happy Readings to All!!
