What's in Your Library Bag Wednesday??...

Welcome to this week's edition of What's in Your Library Bag Wednesday?!!...

     I have found a new author and all of you vampire/romance lovers should try her!! Her name is Jeaniene Frost and the first in her series is Halfway to the Grave: A Night Huntress Novel.

     The main character, Catherine Crawfield is the product of her mother's date rape by a vampire, so she is essentially half vampire; with a lot of the vampiric powers, but no drinking blood. All the pluses and no real downsides unless you count the fact that she is inherently different and her classmates always made fun of her growing up and her mother forever hates vampires and everything about them, etc., etc...Actually, once her mother figures out that Catherine, a.k.a. Cat,  has vampire powers in her, she encourages her to hunt and kill other vampires because she hates them so much. This leads to her meeting the other main character in the story, master vampire, Bones. These two form an unlikely team and proceed to go after the big fish in the vampire world.

     Cat, is a brave and fiesty half vampire heroine. She's got personality and spunk. All are definite prerequisites for me. The idea of her being half vampire was a little iffy, kind of making her another species, but I went with it and fell in love with her character. The vampires in this novel have some human characteristics and quirks as they were all "made" vampires and I like that too.
  
     In the end, Cat is made an offer she can't refuse...Will true love win in the end??? We don't know, but you MUST pick up the next novel to find out; which incidentally is on order as we speak, in case you were wondering...

Until next time, riends...Happy Reading!!!
