Marked by P.C. Cast and Kristin Cast is one of my favorite books. I am one to read anything that sounds like it could be mildly interesting, or just has a subject of Vampires. I read Marked after picking it up at one of my Local Library's. Let's just say I was not disappointed in any way, I fell in love within 3 chapters of this story. It's like Twilight, but with more action, and suspense. Zoey in this book starts as any other girl, and proves the point that life can change at any moment. It's a story of losing what all you know, but finding people who you couldn't live without. True friendship, torn between boys, and finding religion. The books has loads of turns you would never expect and makes it seem more real then a lot of other Vampire novels.It also brings about a light towards Pagan Religion, which I am Wiccan so I found this book to spark my interest even more. I would recommend this book highly.

What the book is about:
After she is Marked, 16-year-old Zoey Redbird enters the House of Night and learns that she is no average fledgling. She has been Marked as special by the vampyre Goddess Nyx. But she is not the only fledgling at the House of Night with special powers. When she discovers that the leader of the Dark Daughters, the school's most elite club, is mis-using her Goddess-given gifts, Zoey must look deep within herself for the courage to embrace her destiny— with a little help from her new vampyre friends.

Evernight - Claudia Gray
I read Claudia Gray's Evernight recently. Evernight is the Vampire version of Romeo & Juliet, a story of star crossed lovers being torn apart by theirs and their families differences. The book was captivating and thrilling, ever page drawing you more into the world of Evernight. If you loved the Twilight Series (I know I sure do.) than this is the book for you. The book will leave you in tears and begging for more. In the end it leaves you with the Question "What would you do for love?"
Others in this Series:
Stargazer.
What the book is about:
