House of Night Dark Horse Comic Book

And now there is a comic book...

This is actually something I could get into, depending on the art work, how the story is represented, and who knows, they might even cut some of the extra crap out of the story. This is the art work:


I really have no idea what is the point of this endevour, maybe to keep milking the cow, but I thought it was an interesting tid bit. I would check it out in any case. It just sounds interesting. Plus the art work seems creepy.

What do you think about the latest from House of Night? Twilight's attempt at art work wasn't half bad...


I like the second picture way more. Anyways, if you click here it will lead you to an excerpt.

So what do you think? Are you ready for more HON? Do you think they are going to far? Are you excited? Not? Bored with the whole fiasco?

Teaser Tuesday Everyone! The Carrier of the Mark by Leigh Fallon

Wow, haven't done this in a while...

Goodreads Star Rating: 3.99/5
Paperback, 342 pages
Published October 4th 2011
by HarperTeen
"The only blip in my new life was Adam DeRis. I couldn't get him out of my mind. From my first day at school, he'd occupied my thoughts. His staring and awkwardness combined with my constantly tingling hands made me hyperaware of his presence in school. I ached just to get a glimpse of him."
-Megan, The Carrier of the Mark,  ARC Copy. 

So when I read this book I can't help but compare it to Twilight. I mean, it's obvious! This is the musings of a girl who has only been in school for a week and already she has a dark hottie who she JUST CAN'T HELP but stare at (and runs away as soon as he catches her gaze, but of course not without loosing her breath for a second first). I just. really want to get lost in her musings, but, it's SO Twilight like (and I LIKE Twilight! My last name is Cullen? It's not like I'm a hater). Only with witches (it seems).

The prologue is very interesting though, and might be just the thing to keep me going because even though the girl has been smitten already by a boy who AVOIDS her to no end, she has some humor and backbone. Bah, the girl has a hottie crush, let her be, Taschima. Yes, I am having an internal fight with myself over this.
"Then a wall of water smashed through the cabin, dulling the flames. 
Seizing my opportunity, I threw myself toward the wooden stairs, where the remains of the fire licked their way upward to freedom. I greeted my teeth and reached over to hook the cable binding my wrists on a jagged piece of scorched metal that I could see through the flames.Turning my face away from the searing heat, I tugged down sharply and felt the tie snap. I screamed as the flames burned my skin, but I didn't have time to worry about the pain. I needed to get out, to warn the others. I had to make sure they were okay."
-Megan, The Carrier of the Mark,  ARC Copy.

Somewhere down the line this action girl will show herself, so I'm holding hope, and continue to read. I like it, it isn't that I don't like the book, it's just that the similarities are incredible.
