After Reading

Betrayed by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast

Zoey has managed to settle in at the House of Night and come to terms with the vast powers the Goddess Nyx has given her. Just as she finally feels she belongs, the unthinkable happens: human teenagers are being killed, and all evidence points to the House of Night. While danger stalks the humans from Zoey’s old life, she begins to realize that the very powers that make her so unique might also threaten those she loves.

I've been enjoying this series. Lots of fun! And, quite frankly, light reads that allow me to just chill and enjoy the story. Something else that I've enjoyed? The fact that they pay attention to the little details. Like, she remembers to check in about the horse during the story, or remembers that she promised to do something for someone. I hate when there are things that happen in a story, and you worry about them, but they aren't ever mentioned again. Lame, I know, but I hate that! Anyhow, other things that I find interesting is that this is a mother-daughter writing team. HOW DO THEY DO THAT? I would love to know! I mean, the thought of trying to write a book with my mom makes me kind of want to run screaming through campus naked. (Okay, probably not, but you get the idea--crazy.) Anyhow, yeah, I do think it's cool. And they balance the writing with the current references well. It's just a fun thing to think about!
