			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This summer girls and guys around will get their fix on the  latest movie, Eclipse, in the Twilight Series by Stephanie Meyers. Are you an Edward or Jacob fan? Can&#8217;t wait to see Bella turn? With just one more book and two more movies for the series left, die-hard vamp fans can&#8217;t get enough of Vampires, warewolves and immortal love. Summer is the perfect time to sit by lake, lay by the beach or just lounge in your room and read a good Vampire book. </p>
<p>By now every tween and house mom and anyone in between has read the Twilight series and wants more. Here are two book series that are getting popular by the minute.</p>
<h4>Vampire Academy</h4>
<p><img src="http://cathleengraham.com/files/vampacademy-199x300.jpg" alt="" title="vampacademy" width="199" height="300" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-181" /></p>
<p>A series by Richelle Mead. Welcome to St. Vladimir&#8217;s Academy. This is a private and protected high school for vampires and half-bloods. Rose and Lissa have been on the run for nearly two years and are finally returned to the academy where things have changed. They are the center or rumors and many students are speculating where they went. </p>
<p>The reader soon learns that Lissa, an elite vampire princess, is in danger from another clan of Vampires. Her unique abilities are something everyone wants. Vampire Academy is a gripping novel filled with dark images yet draws the reader in. You will find yourself turning pages and being unable to put this novel down. This book is Book 1 of the series. There are 6 books out so there is definitely plenty to read and learn about Rose and Lissa on their dangerous adventure. </p>
<h4>House of Night</h4>
<p><img src="http://cathleengraham.com/files/marked-180x300.jpg" alt="house or night" title="marked" width="180" height="300" style="padding-right:10px" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-180" />A series by P.C. Cast and Kristen Cast. The House of Night follows the life of Zoey Redbird, a typical teenager. The only difference between our world and her world is that Vampires are the norm. Special Tracker vampires mark potential humans to enter the House of Night, a school where they will undergo the change into a vampire.</p>
<p>Zoey was marked and now she must go to the House of Night to become a vampire. She feels this mark is a blessing as she never really fit in with her human friends. But she soon learns that she doesn&#8217;t really fit in with the vampires either. Her mark is special, given to the Goddess Nyx and everyone knows it. </p>
<p>This series is deep rooted in old pagan mythology, cherokee images and ancient history. The series has 6 books with a new one out. You will definitely enjoy the adventures of Zoey and all the vamps in the House of Night.</p>

<a href="http://cathleengraham.com/whitney-gaskell-pushing-30/">Pushing 30</a>, by Whitney Gaskell, is her debut novel that embodies chick lit culture. This novel is about a May-December romance between an approaching 30 lawyer and a very famous 52 year old newscaster. When the newscaster finds out the age of the lawyer he swears to never date such a young women. He doesn&#8217;t want to be confused with those that date young during a mid-life crisis. All seems like this is the end of their budding relationship, but alas, it is not.</p>
<p>The book is humorous, witty and a page turner in every manner. Add another author to your chick lit books. Whitney Gaskell has many books to date and Pushing 30 is just as great as all her others. If you get a chance, take a look at this funny book.</p>
