quarter two post four

Today I began reading the Cirque Du Freak series by Darren Shan.

The first book (the vampire's assistant) is really good so far. It's about a young boy who goes to a freak show with his friend and sees a really good act. Then, he meets the guy who performed the act and finds out he's a vampire! Now that he knows, the vampire turns him into a half-vampire and making him his assistant. Now, he has to fake his own death just so he can live with the freak show.

It's a lot better than it sounds, haha. I think that everyone should read this series because it's an actual good vampire series, not just those stupid books that tried to copy the Twilight series, which is also, so i've heard, a good series.
It shows vampires in a different light than i think books usually do. They aren't killers, except for some of them..it's really hard to explain. But super amazing to read.
