I didn’t get a chance to talk more about Vampire Academy as I had so much to cram in. Although I struggled with Rose to begin with I love how she developed and matured, I especially loved that Mead separated Lissa and Rose. It completely changed the game. Rose had to deal with the choices she made, deciding to leave her life behind to track down the man she loved without so much as a explanation could have broken the girls friendship. And choosing to leave meant she could not longer be there to protect Lissa, but being bonded through spirit Rose had to share every moment she couldn’t be there for her. And for Lissa it meant putting her trust in someone who didn’t share a bond, trusting that Rose would come back. Not to mention dealing with the responsibilities and pressures that come with living at Court.
So now it's time for you to help me, your vote is desperately needed as I have next to no clue on what to read next. The first vote is for what to read once I finish Vampire Academy, your choices are:
Blood of Eden by Julie Kawaga.
Howl's Moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones.
Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor.
The second vote is for what I should read on my lunch break, your choices are of two:
Time Lord Fairy Tales by Justin Richards.
Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer.
So get to voting!! Your help is sorely needed.

NO! Just no. This is one of my many technical pet-peeves. There. I've said it. Scabbards aren't lined with steel. They never were and presumably never will be. There's no metal grinding against metal! Damn it.
