L.'s Journal - Dead and Gone

Hello fellow bloggers,

I have sort of let this blog die, which is unfortunate, I should try to revive you livejournal.  I am also thinking of starting up a blogspot account, I had one a long time ago.  I will keep you updated. 

To start off this update, I will post a booklist;

Books currently read/reading;

·         Vampire Academy Books 1, 2, 3; I surprisingly enjoyed this series, it even made me a little teary towards the end. And the 4^th book comes out in August, which I am patiently awaiting, I can’t wait to see what happens between Rose and Dimitri.

·         Gone by Michael Grant; my mum bought me this book because she thought it sounded interesting, for those who haven’t heard of it, it is about a town where everyone over the age of 15 disappears, the kids in the town are there all alone and some of them are gaining weird powers, like one of the main characters can shoot lasers from his hands and another is ridiculously strong and another can be in one room and blink and then be in a different room.  Coyotes have found a demon in a cave which they obey and it gave them the ability to speak to humans.  Another girl can heal herself and heal others.  I found it to be a really interesting book, and there is a sequel coming out in April 2010 called ‘Hunger’

·         Tomorrow Series By John Marsden; I have loved this series ever since the first time I read it in high school and just recently decided to read it again.  Also the ‘Ellie Chronicles’ is really great.

·         The Sookie Stackhouse (southern vampires) series, again I am a HUGE fan of this series and am waiting for the 9^th book to arrive in the mail.  Also the 10^th is so be released next year I am informed

·         Anita Blake series; there is nothing like another vampire series to grasp my attention.  :)

·         Sookie Stackhouse series sub-novels :)

Books currently awaiting release;

·         Vampire Academy 4; “Blood Promise”

·         Evernight 2; “stargazer”

·         The Hunger Games 2

·         Hunger: buy Michael Grant

In a few weeks I’m finally making my trip up to QLD for a week or two to see the lovely Danni and Amelia and spend some time with Kris and a few other friends.  When I get back I get to move into my new room, I need to buy some furniture though, maybe a nice lounge, some nice bedding, a wall sticker or two to dress it up a bit.  The beginning of this week, I went into the city and bought some nice new winter clothes, what I really want is a cute black leather look jacket. 

Mums (well, I have for her) opened up an online store for her business;

I really hope it takes off for her, we have some really good stock and it’s reasonably priced, cheaper then websites like freez.com and all that.  So hopefully it takes off for her.  Fingers crossed. 

Mum and dad are going away for a week just after mothers day, I will be home alone for that week, I’m pretty excited about it, I get to clean out my new room and pack some things up and eat as much ice cream as I like lol.
