Thursday Thirteen #3


Thirteen Books about Vampires


In honor of Teen Read Week, which was actually last week, I've put together a selection of YA Vampire Books, many of which are already in our catalog while the others are on order. Enjoy!
1) Twilight by Stephenie Meyer- with a new cover.

2) Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead

3) The Summoning- by Kelley Armstrong

4) Marked by P.C. Cast + Kristin Cast

5) The Rest Falls Away- by Colleen Gleason

6) Shattered Mirror by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes - okay, I confess, I only found this book looking for enough titles to fill a TT. But it sounds intriguing and is now on the TBR list.

7) Night Rising by Chris Marie Green- Also on the list of TBR.

8) Glass Houses by Rachel Caine- I read the first of her Weather Warden series, and want to read more- just trying to read down the mountain first.

9) Suck It Up by Brian Meehl- love the cover- I'll have to add it to the lists- both TBB and TBR

10) 8th Grade Bites by Heather Brewer

11) Vampire Kisses by Ellen Schreiber

12) Buffy The Vampire Slayer by Nancy Holder

13) Girls That Growl by Mari Mancusi- okay, technically not vampires...close enough.

Bonus Picture- another movie cover for Twilight by Stephenie Meyer
