How To Use This Book List

Many of the books here are written for young adults. However, some are definitely adult books. I don't always specify in my comments; however if you are interested in a book, find it at the library. If it's in Juvenile Fiction or Young Adult Fiction, it's usually safe for kids 12-15 (be sure to preview just in case). If the book is found elsewhere, you can always ask a librarian for their input.
Personally, a few swear words don't do much for me, so I don't usually remember they are in there. Other types of content, however, are usually commented on.
Enjoy!!

p.s. Please leave a "care-to-share" (aka, comment) anytime you like.

Thirst: The Eternal Dawn

by Christopher Pike

I read a lot of his books in jr. high.  This series, Thirst, is for adults, and a lot of fun to read.  In this third book, Alisa, the main character, is a 5,000-year-old vampire who has adjusted to living among humans well enough to blend in 99.9% of the time.  This 0.1% is where the story picks up.  It helps to have read the first two books, only for the background.  It's not necessary, but makes the book more complete.  Although these are "adult" books, and have some language and minimal sexual situations/suggestions, they are quick and easy to read.  I recommend them if you like vampires, adventures, and something that makes you think about the moral high ground without even realizing it.
