Literary (& not so literary) Adventures

So this is my first post on my brand new blog…and what am I reading right now? I wish I could say it was something literary, like Homer’s Iliad, but no, it’s Betrayed by P.C. & Kristin Cast. Betrayed is the second novel in the House of Night series. I’m not normally a fan of stories about vampires (although I do like magician/witch stories…more on that in a later post), but in my last library gig, I was in charge of teen programming.  So, I gave in and read the Twilight books.  Ok, ok, I actually only read the first one & skimmed the second.  I had a friend fill me in on what happened in the last two.  How anyone can get past the writing is beyond me!  But I’m no snob*…I thought I’d give vampire books another shot.  After all, it seemed that most Young Adult books had at least one vampire or two.  So that’s how I started reading the House of Night series – for work related reasons.  However, I kind of like it.  Which is why I’m reading the second book right now, even though I’m no longer planning library programs for teens :)

* My book selections will soon prove that.
