About Us

The Teenager's Book Club is a place to find a good book to read. You know how hard it is to find a good book. Well, all the books on the sight are books I've read and or reading. Some are good and others are not so good. My friends have also read most of the books. That's why I decided to start a book club. Because at my school we share books, well not literally share them,but one person will read a book and if it's good they will tell someone else to read it. That is basically the goal of this Book Club.

Hunted


So I think there are way too many books in this series, this is the fifth, it's just getting ridiculous. Zoey is still dealing with all her boy drama, and the plot keeps circiling around the same old themes. Yes, Neferet is evil, yes she has too many boyfriends, and yes Stevie Rae is undead. I wish she would hurry up and end the series before it becomes a trashy soap opera sort of book, even though it already is a little. I mean the book wasn't bad it was just monotonous. So I would suggest you keep trudging through the series until it comes to a close.


Review/Description
Zoey is a powerful fledging who is training for her conversion to vampyrism at a private boarding school. Zoey and her circle are currently battling evil high priestess Neferet and fallen angel Kalona, who have taken over the Oklahoma House of Night. She is also dealing with power struggles among the other fledglings along with the usual teenage angst that accompanies multiple boyfriends. The plot is zingy and so, for the most part, is the dialogue. The authors go out of their way to recap previous events, which is great for listeners new to the series, but may be annoying to those who already know the back story. They also unnecessarily emphasize gay characters by attaching the adjective "gay" to all of their actions. Narrator Jenna Lamia does a good job, giving each character a distinctive voice and personality, especially Stevie Rae's Oklahoma twang and Aphrodite's very bored delivery.
