PostSubject: House Of Night Series By P.C Cast!!!!!!!!!!!!!   Sat Apr 11, 2009 1:21 am

Very Happy Hey guys!!!! i've read all of these book discussions, but i didn't see any about this series, so......

anyway....What u guys think about these books??

I Like all of them!!!!!!!!!!!! flower

For me, I like it.
I just read the 5th one, and i thought it was good. And maybe this is
just me, but u know I went to Barnes and Noble website to look for the
5th book, and under the reviews thingy, yeah, a lot of ppl said they
didn't like the boys issues, but for me, i kinda liked that. I don't
know why. In this book, I thought Zoey is kinda, sorta, seem a litttle
too shallow, but it was okay.

I can't wait for the next book to come out.
Seriously,
I don't know which boys to choose, but I know it won't be Kalona
(UGH,....He is DISGUSTING!!!!!). Besides that, I love all of them. bounce

I KNOW right.
She wasn't that shallow in the first four books, and in the fifth one, she was starting to get really shallow.
But i still love the books though, and i hope P.C Cast will make her a littttttttle more mature, but not too mature. know what i mean???
I can't wait for the next one. ah. Very Happy

I really hate Zoey. I'm sorry, but to my eyes she's just a gigantic Mary Sue. It's disgusting.
These books aren't exactly my favorite. They're okay reads, I guess, but I'd rate them as just a 'meh.' -shrugs- Just me, though.

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

OMG i agree! I read that part where she dissed the Emo kids and i almost threw the book across the room! i was like Ok just because your human BF was a shallow football brained jerk, doesn't mean that guys who AREN'T like that suck. I mean, honestly It's just saaaad how closed-minded Zoey is. WHich is a shame seaing as she's a VAMPYRE!!!!!!! and they have been antagonized and ostrizied by the humans. Being in the situation she's in, she really should know better.

Okay.... *takes deep calming breaths* I just started reading these like... Last week and I'm like 'Marked... I really enjoyed, Aphrodities a Bitchy whore who should go die in a trench somewhere, I'm annoyed that Zoey doesn't like to cuss cause HELLO!! 95% (I totally guess at numbers XD)Of teenagers cuss in a regular basis and that shes a fucking hypocrite as My Honey Bunny Alaska said "

Couldn't have said it any better my dear. and the thing about the racoon eyes WABAM! I would have punched her in the face! GAH!..... Betrayed... I go on what I said before and the fact she can't make the fucking right decision, I mean COME ON! ERIK, HEATH, OR LOREN????? I pick the one that A) Is totally just a running after you cause you make him have a hard on when you taste his blood by a STARBUCKS, which by the way...I can't stare at a starbucks anymore withot thinking about this book B) Technically does that fall under the technicallity of STATUTORY RAPE! And kind of just W-R-O-N-G or C) The guy who is authentic and totally will have a dorkathon with you watching star wars *Strokes chin* I pick C! Loren may be sexy as a mother fucker from the planet of gorgeous but NO! Heath... He's seems so nice but... Jocks never get the girl... And Erik.... I just purr over him Embarassed and he just seems so.... Meow I love you . I felt better about Aphroditie after the little scene with her parents... I've grown to understand her cause she kind of reminds me of my friends....

I'm reading Chosen right now and I just honestly need to rant cause my parents just think I'm psycho right now Rolling Eyes . Loren=Manho, Heath=Desperate, Erik= I feel so sorry for him. Chp.23, "i was lying on top of loren in a delicious fog of sensation" WHORE!!! HO!! SLUT! BITCH! SKANK! AND STATUTORY RAPE!!!!!!!!!! Mad . I want to rip my hair out! GOD DAMN! What a freaking WHORE! I can't read anymore of it tonight.... As soon as I finished Chp.22 I'm just gaping and gasping at my book saying ' Oh hell fucking no you did not just do that girlfriend' "Oh Erik, I can't make out with you on this wall in public! Wait I'll just lose my virginity Loren instead and be all like I have 3 boyfriends but I guess I only have 2 now since I'm not imprinted on my on/off almost boyfriend anymore! Woe is me! WOE IS FUCKING ME' Just shoot her! Stupid Mary-sue I HATE YOU!!! GAHHHHHH!!!!! I officially hate her....
I just feel so sorry for Erik... I can't wait to read his reaction... Fucking Hypocrite slut better get what she deserves... Twisted Evil .

And poor Stevie Rae.... I love that Country bumpkin.... She definately reminds me of my cousin in texas. I love Stevie Rae but now thats she's all Undead Dead... I just... Idk.... I feel like she's gonna fly away from me and when SPOILSPOILSPOIL aphroditie had the vision about her being thrown into the daylight but Neferet and being burned alive... I threw the book... very hard.... DON'T YOU DARE HURT MY STEVIE RAE!!!

Damien is another gay husband added to the list.... As well as his cute little techie boyfriend (Who's name is definately not entering my mind right now.) The Twins are kind of badass... Definately drawed me in to see 2 people that ALIKE.

I cried when SPOILSPOILSPOIL Professor Nolan died... I cried like a baby who's balllon just floated away... It made me so depressed Sad .

Neferet= Pure evil in dusguise. I could see through tha act... As soon as she had that conversation in her office with Aphroditie about her visions were taken away and were false AND how her voice was so cruel and just condescending... I was just like Idea . You are a fake mean head miss High priestess! I totally epected it.... GGGRRRRR... I KILL U!

I thought I found another Vampire series I would love but NO.... Sluttly Mary-Sue Zoey has to ruin my dreams... She should be called HOEY not Zoey..... Mad

I'm gonna FUCKING EXPLODE!!! affraid

Oh, the pain. Hate Zoe, hate Loren, hate Neferet.... Hate Erik. I read it for the Twins (Who are so freakishly like Melissa and Moi that it is insane...) and Damien. Whose boyfriend is named Jack, Cinderella, BTW.

I kind of liked the books. They were marginally entertaining. But, like everyone above, I hated Zoey. She became so shallow and narcissitic, it was hard to continue to read through the last book.

The scene that topped it all off was how mad she was at Erik for being possessive. I was so ticked at Zoey.

Excuse me, but if you're supposed to be his girlfriend, that kind of means that you don't go kissing and sleeping with 3 other men (granted she only slept with 1 of the others but she was only an empty gym away from sleeping with the other 2). Erik, Heath, Loren, Stark. They circle her like planets around the sun and she revels in the attention she gets but doesn't spare a thought or a concern that perhaps she's being a truly self-centered egotistical @$#%!

Thank goodness for books like the Mortal Instruments where each character from Jace to the real JC all have depth and a soul (OK JC had a black soul but it's still a soul).

i only read marked.
I judged it by the cover thinking, ooh pretty.
Bought it.
read it.
and then i refunded it! [I exchanged it with Wicked lovely!]

But yeah i didnt like it, I guess it was entertaining but entertaining for the wrong reason... like it was a total joke! lol
I couldnt take it seriously at all!There is no biting, but pointing?? the scar on her forehead bit too like HP and the "mean" girls as the villians...umm bit mild and cliche. Yeah im assuming the other books get better as there is gng to be a movie about it. Which i dont understand because if a studio is willing to spend money on this then they might as well make MI into a movie!!!
Yeah if your thinking of buying the book, id suggest to borrow it first and then buy it to avoid saying to yourself, "damn it i could of bought 3 starbuck drinks!"
It is way too ridiculous and annoying! i mean i like reading about teenager's lives but not when they talk like zoey [Omg her ranting made me go bold!]
