Evernight Series: Stargazer

“Fans of Stephenie Meyer and P.C. Cast will enjoy Stargazer, the second book in Claudia Gray’s young adult series. The gothic vampire romance has a likable cast and Gray deftly portrays teenage angst in the heroine as she tells the story in first person.” Gail Pruszkowski- writer for Romantic Times BOOKreviewshttp://ezinearticles.com/?Stargazer---Evernight-Book-2-by-Claudia-Gray&id=2819832

Here are a couple of reviews of the Evernight Series.

“Teenage love, ancient hatred and a Romeo and Juliet-style feud fuel the fires in this compelling first-person drama.” Romantic Times BOOKclubhttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/product-description/0061284467/ref=dp_proddesc_0?ie=UTF8&n=283155&s=books

Stephenie Meyer fans will find similar rewards in the flashes of humor; the terrifying battle between ancient, supernatural societies; and the steamy romance in which love bites aren’t just a euphemism.” Booklisthttp://www.amazon.com/gp/product/product-description/0061284440/ref=dp_proddesc_0?ie=UTF8&n=283155&s=books

Ergo Proxy

"In tone, style, and look Ergo Proxy most resembles Texhnolyze, although its story goes in quite a different direction and it has different philosophical underpinnings. Its second volume gradually thickens and extends the plotlines set up in its first few episodes, continuing a dark, brooding, and good-looking sci-fi series which won't suit everyone's tastes but is nonetheless a solid production." — Theron Martin, Anime News Networkhttp://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/ergo-proxy/dvd-2

"Ergo Proxy delves deeply into psychology, sending the viewer’s head spinning off while trying to figure out what will happen next. Several episodes are devoted entirely to a given character’s particular mental state. Much of the time, this leads to a deliciously suspenseful darkness in the episode. Visually, Ergo Proxy is stunning, combining some 3D modeling with more traditional 2D cel animation. The post-apocalyptic world is not only contrasted with the idyllic perfection of the domed city, but with Re-l’s gothic style and the steampunk outer world technology." — Aly Condon, Flames Risinghttp://www.flamesrising.com/ergo-proxy-anime-review/
