The Host! by Stephenie Meyer! Yes THE Stephenie Meyer!


I can't wait! Okay so we all know that it will not be Twilight but c'mon its from our favourite author of our favourite book! Yes the Host by Stephenie Meyer is coming out On Tue.6.08! So get ready to stand in line or for some of you crazy ones camp out all night because the thing that will finally take our minds off of Twilight (not really..) is here! And for those of you who have no clue in this world of books what I'm talking about here it is :
From the Publisher:
The author of the Twilight series of # 1 bestsellers delivers her brilliant first novel for adults: a gripping story of love and betrayal in a future with the fate of humanity at stake. Melanie Stryder refuses to fade away. The earth has been invaded by a species that take over the minds of their human hosts while leaving their bodies intact, and most of humanity has succumbed.Wanderer, the invading "soul" who has been given Melanie''s body, knew about the challenges of living inside a human: the overwhelming emotions, the too vivid memories. But there was one difficulty Wanderer didn''t expect: the former tenant of her body refusing to relinquish possession of her mind.Melanie fills Wanderer''s thoughts with visions of the man Melanie loves-Jared, a human who still lives in hiding. Unable to separate herself from her body''s desires, Wanderer yearns for a man she''s never met. As outside forces make Wanderer and Melanie unwilling allies, they set off to search for the man they both love.Featuring what may be the first love triangle involving only two bodies, THE HOST is a riveting and unforgettable novel that will bring a vast new readership to one of the most compelling writers of our time.

Speaking of Gossip Girl

Incase you didn't already know and don't already watch it..there's an actual tv show based on these books! You can find out more about it on "http://www.gossipgirlinsider.com/"
Here's a sneak peek at some of the characters! BTW some of them totaly don't match my imagination of the actual chracters in the book!(ehm..ehm..Jenny has CURLY BROWN HAIR??) Oh well!


Gossip Girl Series! The Glamorous life of The Upper Side!


Gotta love 'em. I have to admit these series are way off my track of ususal books. I am more into fantasy than drama-high or real life stories...but Gossip Girl just sucked me in. They are just so detailed and long and personal that by the end you feel like you know Serena, Nate, Blair and all those other characters that bring this story (or should I say stories) to life. Infact the ending was jst so emotional...the conflict and the choices and weird situation...it was just PERFECT! The prequel people say is even more sad and emotional but I am currently on the road to finding out. Gossip Girl (the girl in the book) is absolutely cool and even though she could be a loser-ish stalker who has no clue of the glamorous life she talk about so much, you'll still like her and her sassy responses. Thought at time she is just a tid bit annoying...not to mention stalkerish(and she isn't even ashamed of it)!

So definitely read em...fantasy lovers or romance lover...its a good read for everyone!

Wicked Lovely By Melissa Marr


Wicked Lovely! A book about fairies...or should I say the "fey". A good read..but an even better listen. I listened to this book and I can assure all books come to life when you listen to them. Audio books rock! Anyways here is a summary of the book:


Rule #3: Don't stare at invisible faeries.
Aislinn has always seen faeries. Powerful and dangerous, they walk hidden in mortal world. Aislinn fears their cruelty—especially if they learn of her Sight—and wishes she were as blind to their presence as other teens.
Rule #2: Don't speak to invisible faeries.
Now faeries are stalking her. One of them, Keenan, who is equal parts terrifying and alluring, is trying to talk to her, asking questions Aislinn is afraid to answer.
Rule #1: Don't ever attract their attention.
But it's too late. Keenan is the Summer King who has sought his queen for nine centuries. Without her, summer itself will perish. He is determined that Aislinn will become the Summer Queen at any cost—regardless of her plans or desires.
Suddenly none of the rules that have kept Aislinn safe are working anymore, and everything is on the line: her freedom; her best friend, Seth; her life; everything.
Faerie intrigue, mortal love, and the clash of ancient rules and modern expectations swirl together in Melissa Marr's stunning 21st century faery tale.


A good book! Really give it a try! Aislinn is a real strong character who can keep her stance and not give in to pressure. Seth is a protecting, loving guy who Aislinn is lucky to have. Keenan is the beautiful and strickingly good looking fey who won't let go of Aislinn no matter what! His determination and persistence is alluring. Daniah is the heartbroken, lonley fey who carries the Winter's chill. Your heart will sympathize with her and her story right away.

But here's a little something for you to listen to and compare to your fantasy about this song to. Many fans are voting for this song to be the one used in the movie. But ofcourse as all obsessed fans know...The song will be composed and played by none other than Robert Pattinson who plays Edward! Appearantly he's had a short career in music and plans on continuing it after this movie (With the fame on his side?...ofcourse) So here you are! Tell me what you think? Is it the one? Should it be the one? Got any others that match your fantasy? While your at it watch the fabulos slideshow with it!
