The Iron Fae series by Julie Kagawa is one of my favorite stories. The first book, Iron King, focuses on soon-to-be-sixteen year old Meghan Chase. When her little half-brother Ethan is taken by supernatural beings, her whole world is turned upside down, Meghan learns that everything is not what it seemed. Her missing father, her family, her best friend, even Meghan herself, everything that she has been told is wrong. Despite all that is going on, Meghan is determined to rescue Ethan, no matter what it would cost.
I'm currently reading the 4th book, Iron Knight, and can honestly say that it still gets my pulse racing, there is and never has been a dull moment while reading this amazing series. I highly suggest reading them. :)

The Immortals
Starting with Evermore, The Immortals series by Alyson Noel is a love story with a twist. This is one of the series that I couldn't put down, the story opens on 16 year old Ever Bloom, she is not your average 16 year old. Since the car crash that claimed her family (leaving her as the lone survivor) Ever can see auras, hear thoughts, and know someone's life story with one touch; she is branded a freak at her high school because she has shielded herself from human contact since the day she arrived.
Then comes Damen Auguste, he presents many mysteries to Ever, he seems to be able to read her thoughts, can make things appear/disappear, and is the only one that can calm the chaos of her mind. Ever feels like she knows this gorgeous stranger, but cannot place him anywhere in her life, little does she know that Damen holds many secrets, that he lives in a world where no one ever dies.
This series is more romance than anything else, but don't pin it as a chick book. There are dark forces at work in this series, bringing in adventure, mystery, and action. I am currently reading the sixth and final book in the series, Everlasting, and am just as caught up in it as I was with the first; don't pass up this amazing read! :)

Christmas!
Christmas and New Years have come and gone, did you have fun? Were they what you expected them to be? I know that my holiday season was very average if not boring.
The day before Christmas, I went to Milwaukee where my dad's side lives. I got to see that whole side of the family, then celebrate Christmas along with my uncle's birthday. On the following Sunday, I began the five hour drive to my mom's side in Northern Wisconsin; not my favorite thing to be doing as I get carsick and so does my bunny. The celebrations that followed were just like the drive: long, slow, and boring.
On Wednesday (I think) I went to the new Sherlock Holmes movie with my best friend. I absolutely loved it! If possible, it was even better than the first one. The rest of the break went by really fast, I hung out with friends as much as I could, and was thoroughly happy that there was no snow.
How was your break?
