Racing against time,
Allie, Kanin, and Jackal, set out to defeat the evil vampire Sarren. Dealing with heartbreak of losing Zeke only
makes the journey all the more difficult.
Will Allie come to grips with his death and stop Sarren from destroying
the world? Or will she succumb to her
grief and become the monster the humans think she has become?
Content Notes:
The book contains
several scenes with bad language. It
also has a lot of violence and gore.
Teacher Notes:
While
I really enjoyed this series, like the 2nd and third books, this
book is not appropriate for middle school students. It would be appropriate for mature Jr. High
students or High School students and above.
Alli Sekemoto’s adventures continue
as she struggles back across the United States looking for her creator, Kanin. During her search, she unwittingly crosses
path with her “brother” Jackal. Despite
their differences, they join together in their search; a search that leads
right back to where Alli started….New Covington and a deadly new plague that hunts both vampires and
humans.
Content Notes:
This book has some boy/girl
relationship issues, language, and violence.
If made into a movie it would be rated PG-13.
Teacher Notes:
While the first book in this
series didn’t have anything I felt was major, this second book isn’t
appropriate for 6th grade students.
I would recommend this book for 7th graders and up or mature
6th grade students whose parents were aware of the content.
In a dystopian society, Allie
Sekemoto has been struggling to survive.
When an illness called Red Lung began to kill off the human population,
hidden vampires emerged attempting to save their food supply. Allie has a deep hatred for these vampires and
has spent her life trying to avoid them, until she is faced with death and
chooses to join them. What follows is
her struggle to keep her humanity and save the remnants of the human
population.
Content Notes:
This book has numerous
fighting scenes and lots of “bloods and guts” type stuff. It
also contains a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship although it’s mainly kept in
the PG realm. If made into a movie this
book would be rated PG-13.
Teacher Notes:
This book may not be
suitable for all middle school students.
A similar book would be the Twilight series.
