ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER READER ROUND UP

  Good morning my peeps , today is the first book in the reader round up summer edition its all about the book series . Today I have for you THE PHANTOM ORACLE book 5 in the Vampire Innocent series by Matthew Cox 


                          BOOK BLURB



 Sarah Wright doesn’t think something as minor as death should get in the way of her future.

With the worst summer of her life behind her, it’s time to start focusing on her education. An immortal vampire—even if she is still new at it—pursuing a degree may or may not be a waste of time, but it at least it’s a way to keep up an illusion of sanity.

Soon after classes start, a mysterious presence trapped at the school attaches itself to Sarah, and her hopes for a normal college year evaporate. Sensing a lost soul in need, she decides to help. Unfortunately, this particular lost soul belongs to an ancient sect of mystics who aren’t at all happy about letting them go.

Worse, they aren’t beholden to Aurelie’s decree. Protecting her parents and siblings from the ‘supernatural crap’ falls entirely on Sarah’s shoulders. One wrong move and her worst nightmare will come true: losing the only thing she can’t un-live without—her family.

                      MY REVIEW 
 Sarah is well she is trying hard to have a normal life after what happened all she want to do is have a normal life. But after dying and being turned into a vampire. She isn't going to let that stop her from being a part of her family and going off to college. Except that pesky sun thing she has got the college thing going on. Changing her life and living in the darkness , thank goodness they have night classes . Until the day she decides to help a spirit that has been trapped for centuries, her life is turned into chaos.  Who knew that the spirit was attached to a mysterious cult that want her back. As Sarah tries to keep everyone safe and get back the stuff the cult wants . Will she be able to keep her friends and family safe or loose them. 
 Sarah is your typical teen ager even though she is also trying to figure out be a vampire also. She wants to keep life as normal as possible even if it means she tired and trying to keep it together. She comes off a little naive through out the book but she also stands up for her family and fights to keep them safe. Even though she has accepted that she is a vampire, there are times that she just feels lonely even with friends and family around. You really care for her and what she is going through, the cast of supporting characters range from her little siblings who are well you know how kids are and her parents who just take everything with a grain of salt and laugh.  They are such a fun family to read and really get to know and love . 
   What can I say, I truly enjoyed reading this series and the author has such a fun take on what a vampire can and can not do. Which is they can do almost anything as long as you stay out of the sun. The characters are enjoyable and you start to care for them. You also get to feel the angst of the main character as she walks the fine line of being a normal girl and a vampire. This could be read by your teenager i would say sixteen and up . So if you want a fun series check it out , there are eighteen books in the series.
