34. All Together Dead by Charlaine Harris

ISBN: 0441015816
Pages: 323
Rating: 4/5
Series/Anthology: 7th in the Southern Vampire seres.

About this book:
Betrayed by her longtime vampire love, Louisina cocktail waitress Sookie Stackhouse must now not only deal with a possible new man in her life - the oh - so - handsome shape shifter Quinn - but also contend with a long - planned vampire summit. With her power base weakened by hurricane damager to New Orleans, the local vampire queen is vulnerable to those hungry for a take - over. Soon, Sookie must decide what side she'll stand with. And her choice may mean the difference between survival and all - out catastrophe...

My thoughts:
Very good but still not the best in the series. The ending was very intense and had me sitting on the edge of my seat. I had a hard time with this book because of all the characters that came into it. And all the characters that were from other books and I didn't remember. So trying to keep track of who everybody was, was a little difficult. I can't wait to read From Dead To Worse but that will be awhile until I can get it from the library. I have a position held and whenever it's my turn, I'll be able to read it.

Secret Sins by Jasmine Cresswell

Title: Secret Sins
Author: Jasmine Cresswell
Genre: Romance
ISBN: 0778323706
Pages: 409
Rating: 1/5

Liliana Rodier's father is a powerful and dangerous man. He had Liliana's mother committed to an institution, where she has spent the past 20 years. At the age of 27, Jessica Marie Pamanys is shocked to learn that her real name is Liliana Rodier. A threat on her life prompts Jessica to seek an appointment with her father--a meeting she may live to regret.

My thoughts:
I absolutly hated this book. Honestly, it was a total bore until the very end. It didn't get good until like page 280 or so. I do have to give the author credit thought that the story line was good but it just wasn't put together good I don't think. If she were to go back and think things through a little more. It would have potential. There was too much description that there was no point for the reader to know that it made it boring and probably longer than it should have been. Although I did like the characters and they were well put together. I definitly wouldn't recommend this book to anybody.
