AS A GUARDIAN

She gave her life to fight the beings of hell, and now she will give her soul to continue the battle.

Excerpt:
 
             I stood up and stood in front of him and pulled the tip of the gun and laid it flush with my heart.  “Shoot me.”
            “But…”
            “That part that hates me, that part that wants to shoot me will grow larger if you don’t shoot me!”
            “What will happen?”
            “The bullet will go through my chest, and overnight I will be dead.  The next night, well, it will be like it never happened, except for the evidence on my shirt.”  I take off my shirt.  “There now there won’t be any evidence but some blood, but that can be cleaned.”
            “But…”  Colt just stared at me.  I never wore a bra so I was half naked standing in front of him.
            “SHOOT ME!”
            “I can’t…  Part of me wants to but I can’t!”
            “SHOOT ME!” 
            “No!”  Before I could figure out what had happened he had dropped the gun and grabbed me and pulled me on top of him and he kissed me.
            At first I fought the kiss, but he kept kissing me, and he moved his calloused hand up my side to cup my breast, and I gasped.  He took that moment to deepen the kiss.  And I stopped fighting.  I kissed him back.
            He laid back and I followed, he rolled me over and I was on my back, I wrapped my legs around him and kissed him with everything I had.  I didn’t even notice the knife until the tip of the silver blade that entered my skin, pierced my heart.  I gasped then I was silent.  Blackness over came over me and when I opened my eyes the demon that loved to torture me was standing over me with a smile on its face.  One day dead on Earth was about a hundred and eighty three days in hell.

Breaking Dawn

To be irrevocably in love with a vampire is both fantasy and nightmare woven into a dangerously heightened reality for Bella Swan. Pulled in one direction by her intense passion for Edward Cullen, and in another by her profound connection to werewolf Jacob Black, she has endured a tumultuous year of temptation, loss and strife to reach the ultimate turning point. Her imminent choice to either join the dark but seductive world of immortals or pursue a fully human life has become the thread from which two tribes hangs.

Now that Bella has made her decision, a startling chain of unprecedented events is about to unfold with potentially devastating and unfathomable consequences Just when the frayed strands of Bella’s life – first discovered in Twilight, then scattered and torn in New Moon and Eclipse – seem ready to heal and knit together, could they be destroyed… forever?

Breaking Dawn left me bored, I could see things coming from a mile away, it was a lot of work to force myself to finish this book. Look okay so it got a semi happy ending. Would it have been so horrible to have a nice fight scene in the book? I don’t think so. Some drama is good, everybody likes drama, and this book should have delivered some in bulk quantity, but it did not. And spoiler here because really…. imprinting on Bella’s kid? Really Jacob? Look love the spin that the male vamp could have kids, and imprinting on a baby! Just it is… I am not going to comment. But she left it open for maybe future writings with the ‘bad guys’ and of course their new life. She did wrap things up nicely. But for me it was hard to read, and really… strange…

Eclipse

Seattle is ravaged by a string of mysterious killings and a malicious vampire continues her quest for revenge, Bella once again finds herself surrounded by danger. In the midst of it all, she is forced to choose between her love for Edward and her friendship with Jacob – knowing that her decision has the potential to ignite the ageless struggle between vampire and werewolf. With her graduation approaching, Bella has one more decision to make:life or death. but which is which?

The best part of this book was Jasper’s Story.  Sorry but this girl is Team Jasper all the way, Alice and Jasper are the only vampires in these series of stories that can make me forget the crack the writer was smoking when she made them sparkle.  Jasper is my favorite of the vampires, and Bella still makes me sick to my stomach.  The concessions made by the main characters are very interesting.  I don’t really want to say much because I don’t want to give any spoilers, but Jasper and Alice are the best characters in the series.  Bella, I just want to punch her. 

New Moon Book Spoilers

 

 For Bella Swan, there’s only one thing more important to life itself: Edward Cullen. But being in love with a vampire is even more dangerous than Bella could ever have imagined. Edward has already rescued Bella from the clutches of one evil vampire, but now, as their daring relationship threatens all that is near and dear to them, they realize their troubles may just be beginning. . .

 

   
Okay so I said I wasn’t going to do this but I am going though these books really fast, and yes I am giving spoilers… bad Kati, but it is what it is. Okay New Moon Grade 2 and half stars. Why? I like Alice forget the whole sparkly vampire thing Alice is funny again sparkly vampire thing not good, but forgivable this time because of Alice, the werewolves not too far off from many many Native American legends, did some research even the 2 tribes, my ancestors come from had stories similar to the werewolves in this book so I am okay with it,(they should be called just wolves, or shape shifters, but again I can go with werewolf as it means wolf man) but the sparkly vampires can’t find them, found something like them except the sparkle aspect more like sun drains them of their energy so still vampires are not completely forgiven, only Alice is.  Alice can sparkly like diamonds all she wants, I like Alice. But this had an okay plot, I was getting bored with Bella trying to hurt herself but then Alice saves the day with a untrue vision YAY!!! Action in the book, at this point Edward thinks Belle has passed on and wants to die and goes to the royal vampires (many myths have them so okay and many myths have them with powers as well so OK) but still issues with the sparkle thing and come on Belle really you have Jacob being all nice and waiting and you forgive Edward like he did nothing wrong really make him work for it.  You are destroying women’s movement everywhere I turn in this book, if it wasn’t for Roslie and Alice I would have to wonder about the author’s view on women. I like that there is not much with the sparkle going on with this book maybe Eclipse will have a forgivable note but not anticipating it so… we shall see
