Well, it's a good movie, but little boring. And weird. What to tell? Some scenes are unnecessarily, but the movie, in general, is solid.

Sasvim sam popubertetio (Sanja Pilić)

I never write about our Croatian books, but this one is great. Title is something like "I'm totally in puberty". It's great book for teens. 
I will not write a lot about this book because you probably don't know it and there's no sense.

Dead Until Dark - Sookie Stackhouse novels (Charlaine Harris)

About:
For years, Charlaine Harris has delighted fans with her mystery series featuring small-town waitress-turned-paranormal sleuth Sookie Stackhouse. Now, we are pleased to offer her first novel in the series in a special hardcover edition. 
And with HBO launching an all-new show, True Blood, based on the Southern Vampire novels, the demand for Charlaine Harris and Sookie Stackhouse will be bigger than ever.



I LOVE it, very much. I can't decide what is better, book or True Blood. I love them both. If you're  reading this, you probably noticed that i love vampires. I love them, but that doesn't mean that I love EVERY vampire move/book. Anyway, this one is great, the best for now.


Characters: Sookie Stackhouse, Eric Northman, Bill Compton, Sam Merlotte

Hunted - A House of Nigh novel (P. C. Cast & Kristin Cast)

What if the hottest guy in the world was hiding a nameless evil, and all he wanted was you? At the start of this heart-pounding new installment of the bestselling House of Night series, Zoey’s friends have her back again and Stevie Rae and the red fledglings aren’t Neferet’s secrets any longer. But an unexpected danger has emerged. Neferet guards her powerful new consort, Kalona, and no one at the House of Night seems to understand the threat he poses. Kalona looks gorgeous, and he has the House of Night under his spell. A past life holds the key to breaking his rapidly spreading influence, but what if this past life shows Zoey secrets she doesn’t want to hear and truths she can’t face? 


I loved it. I love HoN, in general. This book is stretched, but it's great in general. Stark is the best ;)


Characters: Zoey Redbird, Erik Night, James Stark...

The Vampire Diaries 2 - The Struggle (L. J. Smith)

About:
Elena quickly realizes that the only thing more dangerous that being in love with a vampire is being desired by two. As Stefan struggles to suppress his instinctive thirst, Damon persists in his quest for Elena's heart. A dark turn of events forces Elena to risk her mortality to save one of her immortal suitors.


This book is better then first one, but neither is this one very good. The idea that book is based on is great, but L. J. Smith is not so good in writing. I like series more (this is not usual for me). However, if L. J. Smith didn't write books, there would not be series, so thank you, L. J. Now, I have to watch second season.


Characters: Elena Gilbert, Stefan Salvatore, Damon Salvatore
