★Meghan★’s comments from the Task Completion group.

Haha I realized I didn't even answer my last questions...

5. I like that vampires are different in every book that you read. I also like that they sort of stick with some of the old Dracula themes rather than make everything different.
6. I would absolutely love Ash's eyes. I think it would be awesome if they could change with your mood.
7. I don't know whether to believe Ash on that either. I think that he has a good heart, but is one of those rebel guys but it is all for show because they are really the biggest teddy bears. I think he never really was intending to turn her in unconsciously but he thought he wanted to maybe...I am not sure...
8. I don't know how I feel about them being witches. I like that they didn't know they were witches, but I think that it would keep the "game" alive and the story going with them as a couple if she wasn't and it probably would have brought on more with another lead to another story.
9. I like that Phil decided to stay in the human world. I think he fit in better. Like it was said in the book Phil was pretty straight lace and not really the type to be out of the ordinary like the other Night Worlders are.

I thought of another...

Read (1, 2, 3?) books where there is a person on the cover with their back to you. Here is a link to help:Backs to the Reader

You can do each task separately. So for 5.1 you have to read both books to get 5 points and for 5.2 you have to read all three to get 5 points

Secret Vampire Chapter 9-16 Questions
5. How did you like the portrayal of the vampire in the book compared to others?
6. Would you like to have eyes like Ash's where they changed colors?
7. Do you think Ash was telling the truth when he said that he said that he was not going to turn her in?
8. How do you feel that Poppy and Phil are witches?

Third Assignment
Daughters of Darkness Chapters 1-8 December 12-15

Yeah pretty much the major gist. We all read a book together and stop at the same parts. And then discuss what we read or ask questions.

Haha you must be in the same group I am in because I currently have The Book Thief and Susannah's Garden set up for that one in the SRC.

1. I think my favorite character is Phil actually. Yes he is the overbearing goody-two-shoes boy, but I always wanted an older brother to look after me like that.
2. I think that the first half of the book does not have enough about the Night World. The series is supposed to be about the Night World but through over a quarter of the book is focused entirely on Poppy and her cancer. It makes the Night World just seem like it almost doesn't exist still.
3. I am not sure which I would choose. I think it would depend on if I loved anyone that was a vampire that I could love forever. I think that as a result right now I would choose to die as a human.
4. I think that Phil is sweet in the fact that he discussed talking to James with Poppy and looks at how rational and how she is already changing. I think it was important for Phil to understand what was going on and how to save his sister. As her twin he would understand best what is right for her and as well as what she would want and need.

Chapter 1-8 Question

1. Who is your favorite character so far?
2. From the first 1/2 of this book, how do you perceive the Night World?
3. If you had the choice to die a human or become a vampire which would you choose?
4. How do you feel about Phil finally "allowing" James to let his sister become a vampire?

Second Assignment
Finish off Secret Vampire Chapters 9-16 December 9-11

The chapters are pretty short. I know the paperback and hardback copies say they are 750+ pages but my Nook is only 447 which is really short for 3 books in one.

I am currently reading , and which should keep me busy the rest of this week.

Haha of course!!! I have too, but am trying to read through the series again.

Sounds good.

We will be reading the first 3 books of the Night World Series Night World, No. 1: Secret Vampire; Daughters of Darkness; Spellbinder (Night World, #1-3) If anyone would like to join...This will be at a slightly accelerated rate since it is a 3 books. And I kind of want to get it done this month. If anybody else would like me to slow down just let me know.

First Assignment
Secret Vampire Chapters 1-8 December 5-8th

Yeah that is fine, but it should still be 11 books right (2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, and 2010)? I know you will want to word it differently, but will we want them to read that many.

On the 5th of December I will probably start...Night World, No. 1: Secret Vampire; Daughters of Darkness; Spellbinder (Night World, #1-3) If anyone wants to join me.

Ooh or they could have them in the title of the book...or on the cover art?

Haha I am really good at thinking of ideas off of other people.

Ooohh Nicolle you gave me an idea:

Since it is the end of the decade read a book published in each year of this decade (2000-2010)? I was thinking 75-100 points since it is 11 books? Or they could pick 5 from different years for 50 points?

Hannukkah is a Jewish version/holiday like Christmas kind of. And Thanksgiving is an American holiday.

Hey Z: Since this is going through February will New Year's and Valentines Day be part of it.

If you just look up a book there, it says right next to the average rating.

Nobody has posted what they are reading for a while so I figured I would. I am currently reading
