It has been a while since I have updated this journal. There is two reason mainly. 1. Because I don't have time and 2. I am just lazy. How sad is that...pretty sad in my line of thinking since I love being on D.A. so much.
Anyway enough about that boring stuff. I want to talk about this new book I got today at Barnes & Noble.
The Book is called; Oh. My. Gods. By; Tera Lynn Childs. I just got this book and I am already hooked on the thing, I have read about 6 chapters of it and I cannot put it down. I would have read more but I am supposed to be going to bed before 1:00 in the morning now. (Mother's orders. It is SUMMMER! Can't she give me a break. I only have a few weeks before I have to go back to school on the 25th.
Makes a face.)
But anyway back to the book. I am going to give you guys the summary here. This is not my summary this is from the back of the book so I take no credit in this summary I did not write the summary.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary is from,
[link]Oh. My. Gods. If Phoebe Castro can keep her grades up and have another stellar cross-country season, her dream of attending USC with her best friends is only a track scholarship away. Shes made all her plans, so its a complete shock when her mom announces shes marrying a mysterious stranger and moving them half-way around the worldto Greece.
Phoebes stuck on a secret island in the Aegean attending the super-exclusive Academy, where her new stepfather is the headmaster and the kids are anything but your average studentsthey are descendants of the Greek gods, super powers included. Thats right, Greek gods are no myth! If Phoebe thought high school was hard, she knows this is going to be mortal misery.
Securing that scholarship seems like Phoebes only ticket out of Greece, but training and maintaining her grades will be grueling, even without a sabotaging stepsister from Hades and a gorgeous guywhat a god!who just might be her Achilles heel. One thing is for suresummoning the will to win and find her place among the gods could be Phoebes toughest course yet.
The Greek gods get a makeover in this romantic odyssey of mythic proportion.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh. My. Gods. is the first book in a two book series by Tera Lynn Childs. The second book is called
Goddess Boot Camp. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is the summary for the second book in Tera Lynn Childs's series. Again this summary is not mine it is from;
[link]Goddess Boot CampPhoebe recently discovered shes a descendent of Nike (the goddess, not the shoe), and now she's finding out that supernatural powers come with a crazy learning curve. Her new stepfather, headmaster of the Academy for descendants of Greek gods, has enrolled her in Dynamotheos Development Campaka Goddess Boot Campwith a bunch of ten-year-olds for the summer. Embarrassing as that is, hopefully itll help her get control of her powers in time to pass the test of the gods, continue training hard enough to qualify for the Pythian Games (the only sporting event bigger than the Olympics), and enjoy her godly boyfriend, Griffin, all while avoiding getting smoted for accidental misuse of powers!
Its another fast-paced myth-inspired heroines quest thats sure to bring out the goddess in anyone.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have to say that my favortie character in the first book would have to be; Troy.
If you ever get the chance to read these books you should totally read them. I recommend these books for people who loves or is interested in Greek Mythology.
Well I think that is all for now, I will tell you about my one vacation this summer very soon. Once I get everything else that I have to do done and off my list.
