We Meet the Highest High Priestess: Untamed Chapter 9

House of Night, Untamed Chapter 9 Zoey does a piss-poor job of recapping the conversation she and Aphrodite just had with Nyx: “Well, crap. Chaos and love are the same, but not. Neferet still has her powers, but she’s not listening to Nyx anymore. Oh, and she’s trying to wake up something dangerous. What does […]

House of Night: Untamed Chapter 10 After Neferet excuses herself from the meeting once Shekinah decides, you know, not to go to war, Zoey reflects on this with her usual keen insight: Was she nuts? Was that what was going on? Could the “darkness” Nyx warned me about be the darkness inside Neferet’s crazy mind? […]

Life and Death Chapter 21: Phone Call The chapter titles are increasingly reflective of how dull the chapter’s content is. Now that I’m only writing about one chapter, I can focus on important details that have changed in the books. For instance, when Bella wakes up to the sound of Alice and Jasper talking, she finds […]

This might not be super interesting to you, but what if I told you that Beau gets significantly more mortally wounded than Bella?

House of Night, Untamed Chapter 11: After running into Erik, Zoey is feeling conflicted. I hated feeling like this. I’d caused Erik to break up with me, but I missed him. A lot. And I still liked him. A lot. Sure, he was acting like a butt right now, but he’d caught me having sex […]

Untamed indeed! House of Night: Untamed Chapter 12 Stark is in the middle of a story about when he learned his special vampire power to “never miss” wasn’t quite what it seemed, which was broken up with a chapter break to seem more dramatic. Because apparently “I accidentally murdered someone” needed all the help it […]

Life and Death Chapter 23: The Choice In Twilight the chapter title is “The Angel.” Contractually obligated joke: BEAU GETS TO HAVE A CHOICE BECAUSE HE HAS A PENIS, I GUESS. Bella drifts in and out of consciousness, and an “angel” (clearly Edward) keeps calling to her and pleading for her to wake up. Beau, on the other […]

By this point, Beau is a vampyre while Bella is not. This really just means that Stephanie Meyer wanted to wrap up her rewrite of Twilight, rather than commit to releasing cash grab rewrites of the whole series (better known in the industry as “The E. L. James”). So to briefly go over what happened in this […]

Ah the holidays draw near as Life and Death draws to a close. I’m glad we can all ring in the new year without anything Twilight in our lives. Life and Death, Epilogue: An Occasion Part 1 At this point, Twilight and Life and Death are so different it seems pointless to even compare them since I can’t do a side-by-side reading. Seriously, […]

How’s everyone enjoying their holidays? Are you excited for some off-brand fun from the half of BBGT who gets really, really obsessive about music? Probably! I listen to lots of music.

I am going to open this post with an important question: Why do bodies disappear during the rapture? I thought it was more of a spirit/soul thing than a physical one? But during this chapter there’s mention that corpses are disappearing too, which made me wonder why all bodies, living or dead, disappear. Google provided […]
