What Happens When I Spend Four Hours At A Library....

So in just over a month I have finished 8 books and finishing another. I read Insurgent (book two from the Divergent Trilogy by Veronica Roth) and it was just as good as the first. She opened up really well for the third and I can't wait for it to come out.
Well about four weeks ago I had nothing to do so I spent four hours at the library. I read That Summer by Sarah Dessen. I've been wanting to read one of her books for a while since I see a lot of them on the shelf at the library and that one was the shortest and I knew I could finish in a couple hours. It was really good, it was about a girl who is basically going through everything at once. Her dad marrying the woman he had an affair with and left their mom for, her older sister getting married, her mom planning on a trip to Europe and leaving her home. And through that she runs into one of her sisters ex-boyfriends, her favorite one. She becomes friends with him and it kinda helps with her dealing with everything, but she finds out later that he wasn't the same guy she thought he was. It was a cute story and I really enjoyed it.
After I finished that I picked up Blue Bloods by Melissa De La Cruz. It's about Vampires, but another twist on them. It is too confusing to put all information into a post, but it's interesting. The story follows Schuyler, Bliss and Mimi all of whom are vampires but all very different. Schuyler is very pretty, but hides behind dark baggy layered clothing. Bliss is originally from Texas, big hair and everything, but now in New York City she is having the strangest "transformation." And Mimi basically runs the private school they all attend, seeing her "dad" is the Regis the New York Coven of Vampires and she is extremely vain and basically a complete jerk. The story gets really interesting when another vampire gets murdered and they only suspects have to be vampires because she was drained of blood. When Schuyler finds out she tries her hardest to find out with the help of her best friend Oliver and Jack, Mimi's betrothed. But it turns out Schuyler is not a full vampire and that changes things between her and Jack. Needless to say, I got into it really fast and have basically read nothing else for the last month. So far there are 7 books in the series and I just finished the latest one yesterday. The 8th and final one comes out in January...so I got a while to finish the series. Looking forward to it so much!!!!
Right now I'm reading Behemoth by Scott Westerfeld and I will be finishing it soon.
