Best book so far!!!

OKay I have to say Serena WAS my favorite, but now I would have to say Catty, how could you not? This story had the best plot, and Catty didnt make stupid choices like the girls did in the other books, she actually thinks a bit more clearly. Others said that Catty and Chris should have stayed together, well yeah maybe if he didnt lie, it was doomed anyways. And Kyle, I love him, I thought they were a good match, but then you read Sotd and realize there not together anymore...whatever, maybe theres still hope!! I love this book so much, I am getting sick of the whole Serena and Stanton thing, I used to think they were so exciting and interesting to read about their forbidden love, but now its just getting old, that why I liked Catty and Kyle, and its not like she wasnt sad, she cried over Chris, plus its about time she really has a relationship she complained in the early ones about not having a bf, and she even thought in #11 that she felt left out, since she was the only one without a bf, which I think a lot of people can relate to that out of the loop feeling!!

Couldn't put it down!!!

This book was awesome. It had been a while since reading about one of the daughters cause the last book about Maggie but it wasn't hard at all getting back into the groove of things. I was so wrapped in this book that I literally could not put it down. Thank goodness it is summer or I wouldn't have finished it. It only took me 3 days to finish and its not a short book. Anyway, This one's about Catty who has to find the scroll. Along the way she meets her father and a cute boy. The only thing that upset me was the way they delt with Jimena's memory lost of being a daugther. But i guess it worked out ok, I can't wait for the 12th book!! I love this seires.

The Prophecy

This book is awesome! It's so exciting and unpredictable! But the characters have changed so much since book 9. For instince Catty is really self-conscience, Vanessa is a lot more rebelious, can control her powers a lot better, and gets even more brave than she already was. Tianna's powers weaken and she seems less confident. Catty also begins to get suspisious of her for some very good reasons... Serena's power gets a lot better, but she seems really nosy and is always looking at parts of Catty's mind that she shouldn't. She's also hanging out with Stanton a lot more and hardly ever hanging out with the other daughters. And then there is Jimena, who's intuition seems to be so in tune that she shows up just in the nick of time to rescue the daughters on more than one occasion.

The Prophecy

I just got this book yesterday and read it in one night!! It was sooo awesome!! Well, if you haven't read it yet, here are a few tidbits about the book:- Serena seems to have changed: She's so obsessed with Stanton and doesn't really spend time with the Daughters anymore.- Vanessa is a lot more rebellious. She's prepared to do anything to help Catty.- Jimena is feeling so lonely and left-out from her friends. She knows the girls are hiding something from her. She also seems to be having premonitions 'cos she's always there when the Daughters need her and she's always giving Catty advice that eventually turns out to be true. I think she's going to replace Maggie. Plus, Serena can't read her mind anymore.- Catty is falling in love with Kyle, and she's so jealous of her friends 'cos they all have boyfriends.- Tianna broke her collarbone during cheerleading practice,and her powers got messed up. It's funny 'cos things just keep on flying around without her control. Also, Catty is feeling weary about her 'cos in the Scroll, there's a goddess opening the gates of hell that looks EXACTLY like Tianna. Also, there's a strange presence in Tianna's house that kind of gives Catty the feeling that she's being watched.- What happens to Chris is so sad. (*sniff*)okay i suggest you buy the book if you're a real DotM fan like me. =)

The Prophecy

I loved it. I mean Catty finally comes to face the past and kick it's arse! She deals with everything her mother told her (her birthmother, not Kendra). I liked the fact that it circled around Catty and it was as if Catty was the only character in the book and it was a monologue. I loved meeting Kyle Ormond( a guy who wanted to meet me), who is one of the main characters of the new series Ewing is writing "Sons of the Dark" which is awesome cause its tied in with DOTM....very cool...and you find out Kyle isn't that ordinary and that's awesome....I just felt bad for chris...Jimena is AWESOME. I know what she is....(Refer back to #10 for more details....) I mean at first one would think "That's Vanessa" but Vanessa is still a daughter so its not her. Their powers are growing bigger and bigger.....and I think #12 may be close to the last one...(It's centered around Tianna, I believe) Anyway read and be well...May the Godess the protect.
