Yes, he's been through alot but he just needs love. He's a really sweet guy.

Anybody read The Secret Hour by Scott Westerfeld the first book in the Midnighters series? OMG!!! SOOOOOOOOOO good!!!

it's about a girl who moved to a little town in Oklahoma and finds out she's a Midnighter, a person born at exactly midnight who can live in an extra hour in each day at midnight where everybody else freezes. These freaky creature inhibit the dark hour and it's really awesome. Mix of sci-fi/friendship/aventure and romance. Just a little creepy but really good!!!

10ragulto101
Oct 16, 2009, 4:26 pm

me...if I have a book with a creepy cover and is scary I have to read it during the day so I won't get creeped out and paranoid.

i don't really get freaked out by books that are creepy/scary unless i'm home alone at night.... then i get creeped out by everything... then again i don't read horror, if i did then i would probably be sacred..

i like scary stories, not at night tho. that makes me think about it when im going to sleep, and its all messed up like "what if this happened?" i creep myself out that way. alot of times it happens for no reason too. that really freaks me out.

13SecretariatGirl

24VetaTorres

I prefer calm serial killers to freaked out ones...they know what's going on and are more proffesional about it.

Have you guys read Bourne Identity??? SO good and it uses and honest to goodness reall assasin as the main bad guy!

i have not but i have considered reading them, i shall add it to my book list

29ragulto101
Oct 25, 2009, 2:41 pm

yeah I start getting paranoid. I remember this book it was a mystery and there's an "assasin" hunting the main character and a part where a girl goes down to the school basement to get her pom-pom bag and then a swarm of spiders come out the bag and starts eating her alive!(ok that's an exaggeration...but still)

30SecretariatGirl
Oct 25, 2009, 9:47 pm

Scary books creep me out alot but I still read them...I used to read them in bed them hide under my covers till I fell asleep...then I'd be paranoid I was gonna suffocate. LOL, I was a really stupid 11 yr. old!

31ragulto101
Oct 30, 2009, 4:51 pm

34VetaTorres
Oct 30, 2009, 8:38 pm

my mom just shakes her head says "go to sleep!", she's doesn't really get mad cuz punishing me for reading seems a little ridiculous to her, which is good :D

35jettblack28
Edited: Oct 30, 2009, 8:41 pm

I have like this night light thingy and i never get caught reading but lately i have been so tiried i haven't been reading after hours lately.

42ragulto101
Nov 3, 2009, 7:12 pm

Over the summer BEFORE I made the "headdress light" my stepdad was passing by my room to get to the laundry room and he saw my lamp on. But by the time I heard him coming and turned off the lamp he said, "I saw your light on so don't even try. It's 4 am go to sleep!" What I did was waited til he was gone then stayed up til morning(6 I think) finishing the book!!

But when I left my room I was so busted! He totally snitched on me!

And after the whole lecture thing I was thinking what you said Renee that why would she get angry @ me 4 reading I mean it wasn't like they caught me with a guy in my room.

..........................................................

Same here Helen. I have been so tired that I haven't been staying after hours reading lately. And if I do stay late it's to finish homework.

43VetaTorres
Nov 3, 2009, 9:10 pm

yeah my parents are pretty cool about it now and in general i don't get in trouble even for like coming home late and stuff... then again i don't do "bad" stuff. like if my mom sent me to my room because i was in trouble i wouldn't mind, all my books are in there lol
