![]() ![]() ![]() With the vampire training school setting, the authors are also going for Harry Potter grads. There's even a hot older love interest - a vampire who's also a famous actor (take that, Edward!). The authors try too hard to please both the Gossip Girl crowd and Twilighters. In fact, the transition from talking smack about the school bully to casting a circle of elements for goddess worship can get pretty jarring. There's more gossiping and bad-girl behavior than bloody fangs and supernatural creature battles. Written by a fantasy writer and her college-age daughter, this definitely feels more like a fun mother-daughter project than serious sci-fi. Even a couple of the words I didnt know what they were, but the book (character) says why they mean so the rest of the group can understand. Basically being a good person.Īlso another benefit of the book is one of the main characters is a vocab buff. They just can not be bullies anymore they have to uphold the new beliefs. She even tell her friends that if one of the old group members wants to join they can. The main character takes over a school group because it was mean and more of a clique thing and she is trying to turn it into a group of outstanding students who must be honest and good and not bully anyone. The characters are different races and they even have a gay guy in their group. I wouldnt say it is educational but i would say it does send some good messages. Violence well they mention fledgling dying and how 2 kids were found with blood loss due to lacerations (second book) but there isnt any violent scenes described. Its like a pg-13 movie where they are making out and the girl lr guy will take their shirt off and then they cut the scene. ![]() I opened my eyes." So it never describes anything. Then she is like daydreaming or out of body experience she is looking at the guy sleep and says ".he reached down to touch the bulge in his pants and he. I was turned on but a security gaurd came and told then they cant make out there. In the second book (im currently reading) there is another scene of her drinking a guys blood and it says he grabbed my but and my boob. She also makes it clear that she thinks it is disgusting and would never get on her knees. Now through the book she refers to it has the blow-job scene or how desperate the girl sounded trying to give oral sex to a buy. She tried to convince him that he wants it and she "unzips his pants" and says I can tell you want me but he says no and then he sees Zoey and the girl notices this and turns to look at Zoey too. The scene everyone is talking about is where Zoey sees a girl on her knees in front of a guy with his head tilted back but he tells her get off her knees. (Which is now normal in a lot of societies.) Anyway it is very clear that drinking and drugs a illegal and frowned upon. They do however drink wine but explain that in Europe where the first school was founded that is tradition to drink a glass of wine with a meal. ![]() In the second book he tells her that he has quit smoking and drinking and is now a better student and has goals for his future. Well she tells him only losers drink and smoke and how she doesnt like it. She has an almost-ex-boyfriend (as she called him) that drinks a lot according to her and towards the end says he smoke pot too. The school priestess then tells him that she does not believe in their religion (people of faith, non specific) that it is a male dominated religion but she will not disrespect his beliefs and he shall show the same respect for her. The only religion the book actually insults is the house of night religion, when the main character's (Zoey) step father tells them that their religion is a sin and they are an abomination. Now for the religion they worship a goddess who says she is called many things depending on the religion. There is cursing the characters in the book are teenagers so the say things like ho and slut about a character who is showing these traits (however later jn the series this character does mature a d develop into a better person). Lets touch base on a little of everything that other reviews have said. ![]()
