The vampire diaries tv series

So I watched the entire vampire diaries the past 2 weeks from season 1 to the season 4 finale. I really love the series, enjoyed the books more but I really like Nina as Elena and Katherine, she plays her characters well. Damon; swoon, and I love evil vamps including; Niklaus. Can't wait to see what they do in season 5. Considering they have not really stayed on board with the books. If u haven't watched vampire diaries or read the books do so, if you are a supernatural fan. It is so good. Good enough to watch more than once.

BOOK REVIEW!

WOW

I am so excited to share this with everyone. I have had several reviews since the book came out but every time there is a new one it still excites me. I love hearing this stuff. Review can also been seen on Shelfari, Amazon, Tome Tender, Tome Tender fb, Barnes & Noble, Twitter & Google.

GOODREADS REVIEW

I have had my share of good and bad and I take all reviews to heart. I want both good and bad because I want to become a better writer. I want to know what I did wrong or what I should keep doing. The one thing I am proud of, is the fact that everyone who reads it says they can visualize the story as they read it, because of how I write. I will continue to write that way. It is also what I love about a story when I read.
Thanks to Dianne for this great review. Cant wait to see what she has to say about the next 3 books in the series. :)

Immortal Island #1, Spellbound by S. L. Ross will draw you in slowly as college student, Sarah Daniels is dreading her commitment to her parents to return to their island home and cat sit while they are away in Zurich. There is just something creepy about her parents’ big old house, although beautiful, Sarah knows there is “just something” that totally creeps her out about being there, is it the shadowy figures? The objects that seem to move themselves, only to be found in the weirdest places later? Too bad these problems are soon to become minor issues in the Sarah’s life when she gets sucked into the middle of a world she never knew existed where her very human self is a threat to the immortal paranormal world!

Sarah’s world is taking a turn for the “weird” when she realizes she is having visions and the people in those visions start showing up in her life! Enter one hot vision, Chase, whose touch is electrifying, whose looks are to die for and we have instant chemistry and a feeling of having known him before! Meanwhile, Jeff, Sarah’s equally hot ex-boyfriend with the controlling mother and lack of self-control still wants Sarah, even though their breakup was four years prior. Let’s not forget the creepy house, and the island it’s on! What is it about its inhabitants? Poor Sarah, confused is hardly adequate to describe how she feels, as she learns about what Chase is, who she is, what Jeff is! Not only does she have feelings for both men, but now her parents are missing, and her life is in danger as she is thrown headlong into the world of supernaturals! Who is she really???? What is her role in the immortal world? Who is right for her, Chase or Jeff? Where are her parents? For that matter, where is that stupid cat?

S. L. Ross took her time building the world in which Sarah finds herself, filled it with rich detail and gut-knotting twists and surprises at every corner! Sarah’s mental acrobatics as she narrates the story from her POV adds to the tension perfectly! I swear I was there with her, (okay, so maybe sometimes I “wish” I was there with her)! Each character was given a well-defined personality and role to play with just enough mystery and intrigue to keep me guessing as their lives were peeled apart, layer by layer and their secrets unfold! The dialogue was playing in my mind in realtime, I swear I was really “hearing” what was said, complete with the emotional inflections. Nice job, Ms. Ross! Now you have ME hearing things!

Be warned, hang on tight at the end so you don’t go over the edge of this HUGE cliffhanger! Talk about a great draw into NEEDING book two! 4.5 Stars!

Movie review

Hotel Transylvania, I have now seen this movie 3 times and I still love it and so do my kids. I am a fan of monster's so when I heard about this movie coming out  figured it was a great way to share my love of monsters with my kids without scaring them. Now of course they have seen all kinds of monster movies and still enjoy all of them. If you haven't seen it yet get to it. I love how they used the old school version of monsters too. No sparkling vampires here either!! ;)

IMMORTAL ISLAND

In Book 1 Spellbound – Sarah is your typical American girl, happy, loving parents and off to college. She even falls in love for the first time with a perfect take home to mom kind of guy Jeff. But like everything all things must come to an end. Trust is now an issue with Sarah. Jeff had destroyed her feelings on love and all that comes with it. It’s now Sarah’s senior year of college when strange things begin to happen to her. She meets a mystery man she feels she knows and the only problem with it is that she had a vision about it before it happened. Then her parents go missing. Sarah is a strong person but with everything falling apart around her she doesn’t know how much more she can handle. Especially not the news that her new boyfriend is a vampire and her ex is a werewolf…

Book 2 The Vampire Masquerade – Sarah is devastated to learn that Chase will not be coming back any time soon. The council is unhappy with Chase and what he has done. Humans are never to be made aware of their existence. She begged for his life but that made no sway in their decision to punish Chase. Now Sarah has a worse feat. She has been invited to a Masquerade by one of the most powerful Vampire ever created. He wants her dead and she can’t figure out why. Victoria and Draven prepare her for the event that she cannot run from. Erick the mystery man who seems to be saving her life recently also tries to help her against a sinister vampire named Ambrose. There is shocking news about Chase’s return and Sarah is devastated that she may not survive this masquerade. The pressure is on and now it’s not just her life she has to worry about anymore…

Book 3 The Fallen – Things have gotten way out of control. Alaina is missing. The coven have taken her from the wolves. Sarah is still with Ambrose despite her best efforts to kill him. It’s time to take back what is hers, and the only way to do this, is to find her daughter Alaina and bring her home. Along the way she meets someone, Lennox. Lennox knows things about her that she couldn’t imagine possible. He is a little over zealous at wanting to help her. She is skeptic with his eagerness to remain in her life but what else can she do. She must face the largest coven in Romania with someone else at her side. Sarah has now built an army stronger than she thought possible. Now with the battle so close there is only one person she trusts, problem is . . . she can't find him…

Book 4 The Reckoning – Chase is determined to find Sarah and bring her out of hiding once and for all. The council has been defeated. They can finally be together as they were destined to be. Unfortunately there is a big problem with his plan the bond has been severed. With Erick’s rebirth as Samuel, Chase uses him to track down Sarah. Years later they are reunited only for her to be ripped from his arms. Sarah’s souls is cleaned by the Hierarchy. Chase will never find her again. When his hopes of finding her soul again fail he beings to give up and settle in a rundown community where a large coven of vampires have gather. A hunter is on the loose and she means business. She is powerful taking out an entire coven in one day. She almost kills Chase when something happens between them and their fates change. Sarina was trained her entire life to destroy the evil in this world but when she meets Chase it is hard for her to do this. Then when she sees a photo of the woman he calls Sarah she suddenly realized what she must do. She must protect her daughter at all costs end this war once and for all. Her daughter will not have this life, the choices Sarina will make from that day forward are hers and hers alone.

I truly hope you will take the time to read my series and post reviews or thoughts.
