Notes from a Totally Lame Vampire by: Tim Collins

Summary: Nigel Muller isn't you typical teenager...He's a vampire!
But unfortunately,when Nigel transformed,he didn't become all broody and interesting,and as for super strength and speed...well,forget it! Nigel got acne,a voice that sqeaks, a tendency to break out into a rash (not sparkles!) when exposed to the sun,and still had absolutely no idea how to talk to girls. Nigel just may be the first and only lame vampire on record.
When a beautiful new girl comes to school,Nigel is determined to impress her. Of course,that would mean actually speaking her...and he will...eventually. But until he can win the girl and the respect of his family, Nigel will just be utterly lame.


The Band Book by: Simon Spotlight
Summary:
How many silly, crazy, zany, funky, wacky bands do you own?? Didn't think you'd see these crazy bands in school ever again? Well, get redy to get silly! Band fans will laugh out loud at these outrageous scenes: bands in history class, bands in gym, even bands in the cafeteria! With more than twenty-five of the cleverest and most hilarious band QUIZ questions, and the most extensive band CHECKLIST imaginable, this book is the silliest, funniest, zaniest book of bands you'll ever read!

I'm really looking forward to reading Notes from a Totally Lame Vampire. The crazy part of thiese books though is where I got them. I got them for free at a movie theater! They just gave them to me for free for buying popcorn! Anyways,what did you get this week?

Legacy (Private #6) by: Kate Brian
Summary:
The price of power...

After Cheyenne Martin's death, everyone at Easton Academy is struggling to recover from yet another tragedy--especially the girls of Billings Hall. With Cheyenne gone, they need to elect a new leader. And who better than Reed Brennan, the ultimate Billings Girls?

As the new Billings president, Reed suddenly has access to power she never imagined. Gossip is reported to her immediately, she has first dibs on everything from dining tables to dorm rooms, and Billings's most powerful alumnae are at her beck and call. So when Easton's students discover they're the only prep school on the East Coast not invited to this year's all-inclusive Legacy party, everyone turns to Reed to get them back on the list.

Reed is the most powerful girl at Easton.

She revels in her newfound status, but knows better than anyone that the Bilings leaders have a tainted legacy: Ariana was institutionalized, Noelle was expelled, and Cheyenne just died. History has a way of repeating itself at Easton, and now that Reed has everything she's ever wanted, she has everything to lose.

I didn't really get anything this week but I love the Private series so I hope this book is great!

Paul is Undead by: Alan Goldsher

Summary:
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IT'S TIME TO REALLY MEET THE BEATLES.

For John Lennon, a young, idealistic zombie guitarist with dreams of global domination, Liverpool seems the ideal place to form a band that could take over the world. In an inspired act, Lennon kills and reanimates local rocker Paul McCartney, kicking off an unstoppable partnership. With the addition of newly zombified guitarist George Harrison and drummer/Seventh Level Ninja Lord Ringo Starr, the Beatles soon cut a swath of bloody good music and bloody violent mayhem across Europe, America, and the entire planet.

In this searing oral history, discover how the Fab Four climbed to the Toppermost of the Poppermost while stealing the hearts, ears, and brains of smitten teenage girls. Learn the tale behind a spiritual journey that resulted in the dismemberment of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi. Marvel at the seemingly indestructible quartet’s survival of a fierce attack by Eighth Level Ninja Lord Yoko Ono. And find out how the boys escaped eternal death at the hands of England’s greatest zombie hunter, Mick Jagger.

Through all this, one mystery remains: Can the Beatles sublimate their hunger for gray matter, remain on top of the charts, and stay together for all eternity? After all, three of the Fab Four are zombies, and zombies live forever. . . .


Umm how could any Beatles lover not get this book? John Lennon,Paul Mccartney,and George Harrison as zombies and Ringo as a ninja!? I had to get this book. I only read a couple of pages so far but it's pretty good. What did you get?

In My Mailbox 6

In My Mailbox was made by Thestorysiren but inspired by PopCultureJunkie.

Wanted by: Sara Shepard
**Summary may include spoilers for people who have not read The Pretty Little Liars Series!
Summary:

In Rosewood, majestic estates sprawl for acres, and Tiffany toggle bracelets dangle from every girl's wrist. But not all that glitters is gold, and the town harbors secrets darker than anyone could imagine—like the truth about what really happened the night Alison DiLaurentis went missing. . . .

Back in middle school, Ali plucked Emily, Hanna, Aria, and Spencer from obscurity and turned them into the beautiful, popular girls everyone wanted to be. Ali was the best friend they ever had. But she also made them do terrible things and taunted them with their worst secrets. Now, three years later, all their questions about Ali have finally been answered and they can put this awful chapter of their lives behind them. Or so they think.

Not every story has a happy ending, especially when four pretty little liars have done so many wicked things. In the dramatic conclusion of Sara Shepard's bestselling Pretty Little Liars series, Emily, Hanna, Aria, and Spencer could get everything they've ever wanted—unless A has one more horrifying twist in store.

I can't wait to read this book! I just finished reading Heartless which was great! What did you get this week?

Dear Sister by: Francine Pascal
*Spoilers in summary if u haven't read the series!
A senseless tragedy...
Sweet Valley is stunned by the news: Beautiful young Elizabeth Wakefield lies in a coma, on the brink of death after a horrible motorcycle accident.
Elizabeth's boyfriend Todd is consumed by guilt; he was driving and escaped unharmed. He feels totally helpless. All he can do is wait for a change in Elizabeth's condition -- a change that might mean the loss of the only girl he's ever loved.
But no one is more shattered than Elizabeth's twin, Jessica. As she keeps watch over the silent body of her sister, she's overwhelmed by despair. Without Elizabeth, can life go on?
I love this series! I can't wait to read this!
