About NINTH GRADE SLAYS...
Greetings, Minions! How are all my little nightstalkers doing? Auntie Heather is busy with packing and getting everything ready (read: cleaning and trying to find my desk) for my upcoming trip. As an FYI, I'll be gone this Wednesday morning and won't be back until Sunday night (but no blogging again until Monday). But please feel free to leave comments while I'm gone and tell me what you loved and loathed about NINTH GRADE SLAYS--I'm really anxious to hear it (yes, the good, the bad, and the ugly). With this book, the series takes a turn into what it will soon be. EIGHTH GRADE BITES set the stage, but NINTH GRADE SLAYS is where Vlad's story truly begins. It's darker, much darker than EIGHTH GRADE BITES. And I promise you, everything that I do with these books, I do for a reason.
It's hard to choose my favorite chapter, but choosing my fave chapter title of NINTH GRADE SLAYS is easy. It's Psycho Slasher Chain-saw Guy from Hell. And my fave moment in the book takes place on page 258 (but please don't skip ahead to that part--you'll understand in due time). Otis continues to be a great chracter in this book, as does our favorite fanged boy (Vlad), and I'm hoping that I've thrown you a few twists and turns that you'll enjoy. There's more blood, more vampires, more Henry making out with random girls, more everything, really. I like this book...and I hope you will too.
If you do, the best thing that you can do is talk about it. Tell your family, your friends, your local booksellers, your librarians. Tell them they should buy it too. Plaster that vampire smiley everywhere you can think of. Make them listen. Because how well Vlad does as a series is up to you, Minions. And so far, you've done an amazing job. Thank you.
I hope to see many of you in Flint, Michigan this Saturday! As a reminder, I'll be at Barnes & Noble at Genesee Valley Mall from 2-5pm. See you there!

:( The books haven't come to my B&N yet. T_T As soon as it does though, I'm gonna get it. (: I hope you get to come to Louisiana some time Auntie! I know you have quite a bit of fans down here. ;)
I haven't gotten it yet, I'm buying one for my younger sister's birthday on Saturday (Yep, I'm workin gdown the line and creating a new horde of vlad lovers :p)
In honor of the new book, maybe there should be new blue vampire smilies, after the book's got some publicity and stuff.
What do you think Aunt Heather? Have fun at B&N, wish I could be there. -Gabrielle
I can't believe it! My Godmother told me last night she bought Ninth Grade Slays already!!! I was thinking I wouldn't get it for a while since she's coming up this Thur. but now I'll get it then! I'm so so so excited!!!
I also watched the trailer for Ninth Grade Slays...I think I like the first one better.
I did go to my local library and tell her to by Eighth Grade Bites and gave her the link to your site. She always asks me what books to get so I really hope she'll get it!
I'm just way to excited!!!
*clings to Vlad*

Yours in eternity
CD: Don't worry--I'll make it down there eventually!
Gabrielle: I have a few blue smiley t-shirts left, actually, and Minion Bling (but I'm behind on shipping--bad Auntie). Yay, furthering the horde!
Froze8: EEEEE!!! I can't wait for you to read it! My husband prefers the first one too, so you're not alone. Me, I like both. *shrug*
Rachel: Me too! I mean...I can't wait for you to read it. :) *dances with you*

Yours in Eternity
I have to agree on pg 258 being my fav page, I mean really who doesn't like a little blood and gore and dieing in a book. In my stories the main character always dies
XD
Don't do that with Vlad though!
....
....
Or at least not until the last book...
YEA FOR KILLING OFF MAIN CHARACTERS!
Yours in Eternity
