OMG. Zoey is, without a doubt, the most hypocritical, retarted, slutastic, ditzy moronic mary sue that I have ever read about. Worlds cannot contain the amout of hatered I feel towards her.
Her shining moment? As in the one where I actually kinda liked her?
When she found out Lauren was actually totally -spoiler dont read till end of sentence- using her for just sex and information. And then her friends hated her and she had NO ONE.
I was like "YES. YOU ARE A WHOREEEEEEEE." And I was happy because sh ewas getting what she was deserving. But seriously???
Okay. Let me explain. First book. "I hope the vamp school wouldn't be filled with goths and emos."
.......... Why? What is wrong with goths and emos????? hateful fucking hag.
"Blah blah blah radom context in which I think boys who wear skinny jeans and who have side bangs are wimps are I don't like them and I diss them terribly."
Seriously?? Unessesary. Comepltely uneeded to diss my favourite kind of man. If and when I write a novel, I'm not going to make my main character go "Oh look at those football players. They're all probably just dumb jocks. They're so stupid and ugly." Because I know people would get offended and it's a very rude and mean comment to say. Exactly. Don't diss boys who wear skinny's and have side bangs. Or I will shoot you. [that is, if you are a fictional character in a book. If you are a real eprson, you are only allowed to diss them if you point them out. Because I agree, some boys do ti that really shouldn't]
Then as if to continue to her anger, she mentions how she puts on "some eye shadow and some eyeliner. But only a little to the point where it looks good. Not racoon eyes like those stupid girls do who wear it and think it looks cool"
No. Girls wear their make up like that, because belive it or not... THEY LOOK GOOD LIKE THAT.
And then a great kicker that continues on to the other books.
"oh I hate sluts. And I am not one. Blah blah blah I hate sluts. Oh Erik, let me kiss you." she's is kissing her boyfriend against a wall. Perfectly noramal. Right? Apperently not to Zoey-saint. "Oh no. Erik I can't do this. You only want me for sex. I'm not a slut and I'm not that kind of gilr!!!!" she flips out. Because she considers kissing your boyfriend against a building is total slut behaviour. Which, okay fine whatever. I guess I can let that pass. BUT THEN. Second book. She has, lets count; one, two, no. THREE BOYFRIENDS.
AT THE SAME TIME. Please, somebody, justify her. I dare you to take the challenge. Because there is no way to justify such an act. Especcialy when you shat briicks and went balistic over the fact that you're not a slut, and you dissaprove of even the notion of being slutty.
*COUGH*"as she sucked his blood she reached her hand down and rubbed the hard spot between his legs" *COUGH*
Oh. And then my personal favourite.
This ones from the fourth book. New male character is introduced. Now, Zoey has a group of friends. Three girls and one gay boy named Damien.
So she introduces her friends to the new boy and its something like; "...Shaunee and Erin. And this is Damien. He's gay" I added, deciding to get the whole 'gay' thing over with to see how he would react to it.
Seriously??? Think about. You can not kill a conversation better then like that. How in the world are you supossed to respond to that??
"Yeah he's gay"
"Cool" "Rockin" "Stylin" "....great" "okay??" "Good to know!" "Yeah I know." "Yeah I pretty much knew that by first glance"
Like seriously??? And not only that, but it is comepltely uncalled her. There is not difference then by going;
"This is my friend Eden, he's Asian. And this is Donna, She's Black. And that over there is my Native American friend, oh! And this is Jimmy, he's gay. And me? Oh I labbel people"
Comepltely uncalled for.
And to top it all of, she's a horrible narrarator. "The iron thing was attached to the ground. And okay, so it wasn't really all that scary but still. And okay, so the music was all like, rocky and indie and kind of like tenchnoy and rappy. Aphrodite looked like a total slut. And she would have looked good except she looked like a total ho." and I cannot tell you how much I want to kill every person that uses the word "Bull-poopie" regularly. You either say it, or you don't. Bull crap, bull shit and a ton of BS. But there isn't any Bull-poopie. Please shoot yourself in the foot if you think it is an awesome thing to say.
-sigh-. Okay. It's out. Now on to the good things!!!!
Erik in the first book was sooo amazing. I loved him. He was so great. He was cute and charming and everything. [he then became an ass and I started to really not like him but this list is supossed to be positive]
And the story is actually really good. It had to be for me to keep reading. But I did keep reading. And often time then not, I could not put the books down. And I just needed to finish them. So the story is actually really really good and suspenceful. And I cannot deny, the mother [as in, in case you guys weren't aware there are two authors. A daughter and a mother] has some major skill in ending chapters. I won't even deny it. I was amazed at how amazing the endings to chapters were. They just compelled you to begin the next chapter.
And then of course, my favourite.
.... James Stark. Ah..... Or whatever the shit his name was. I don't even really care. Its been three months. Oh my goodness I fell in love with him. Favourite character. He was so great. And He showed up when my faith in the books was lowest and I was ready to drop the series. But he showed up. And I will not deny, I cried like a baby in the middle of the fourthbook. Because they were so closeee... and it was just so unfairrr....
But yeah. In conclusion, if you see this book in the library and you have nothing to read, pick it up. You migyht like it.
I give it a 3/5
