The Blurb of the First book:


Vladimir Tod.

Normal eighth-grade student?

Or powerful vampire?

If you thought eighth grade was tough, try it with fangs and a fear of garlic.
Junior high really stinks for thirteen-year-old Vladimir Tod. Bullies harass him, the principal is dogging him, and the girl he likes prefers his best friend. 
Oh, and Vlad has a secret. His mother was human, but his father was a vampire. With no idea of the extent of his powers and no one to teach him, Vlad struggles daily with blood cravings and enlarged fangs. 

When a strange substitute teacher begins to question him a little too closely, Vlad worries that his cover is about to be blown. And then he realises he's being hunted by a vampire killer, and suddenly hunger, girls and bullies seem not quite such a problem after all.

7 Souls by Barnabas Miller & Jordan Orlando

Mary expected her seventeenth birthday to be a blowout to remember, courtesy of her best friends, fellow New York prepsters Amy and Joon, and her doting boyfriend, Trick. 

Instead, the day starts out badly and gets worse. After waking up in a mortifying place with a massive, unexplainable hangover, Mary soon discovers that nobody at school is even aware that it's her birthday. As evening approaches, paranoia sets in. Mary just can't shake the feeling that someone is out to get her - and as it turns out, she's right. Before the night is over, she's been killed in cold blood. 

But the murder is only the beginning of Mary's ordeal. Her soul gets trapped in a strange limbo, and she must relive the day of her death through the eyes of seven people - each of whom, she finds, had plenty of reasons to hate her. As Mary explores the mysteries of her world, discovering secrets that were hidden in plain sight while she was alive, she clings desperately to the hope that she can solve her own murder, change the past, and - just maybe - save her own life. 

With its blend of suspense, horror, fantasy, and realism, 7 Souls is an adrenaline rush of a thriller. 

7 Souls will be in stores from April 2011.

A Bright Young Week

When I went to the launch of the book India Dark on Tuesday night at the Fremantle Children's Literature Centre, I enjoyed myself immensely.
Learning about the history behind the book was great and it was interesting to know that the whole book is based on a true story of a troupe of Child performers that went on strike one night after their show in Madras Podicherry, India. India Dark by Kirsty Murray is on the top of my list!

I also purchased a copy of Zarconi's Magic Flying Fish by Kirsty Murray 

Look out for their reviews soon!

I was excited to see a copy of Bright Young Things by Anna Godbersen arrive in the mail from Penguin.

The year is 1929. New York is ruled by the Bright Young Things: flappers and socialites seeking thrills and chasing dreams in the anything-goes era of the Roaring Twenties.

Letty Larkspur and Cordelia Grey escaped their small Midwestern town for New York's glittering metropolis. All Letty wants is to see her name in lights, but she quickly discovers Manhattan is filled with pretty girls who will do anything to be a star. . . .
Cordelia is searching for the father she's never known, a man as infamous for his wild parties as he is for his shadowy schemes. Overnight, she enters a world more thrilling and glamorous than she ever could have imagined—and more dangerous. It's a life anyone would kill for . . . and someone will.
The only person Cordelia can trust is ­Astrid Donal, a flapper who seems to have it all: money, looks, and the love of Cordelia's brother, Charlie. But Astrid's perfect veneer hides a score of family secrets.
Across the vast lawns of Long Island, in the ­illicit speakeasies of Manhattan, and on the blindingly lit stages of Broadway, the three girls' fortunes will rise and fall—together and apart. From the New York Times bestselling author of The Luxe comes an epic new series set in the dizzying last summer of the Jazz Age. 

Look out for the review soon!

Have a great weekend everyone!
