Waiting on Wednesday: Wimpy Vampires and Werewolf fighting Sisters!

Waiting on Wendnesday is hosted byJill over at Breaking The Spine and is a weekly event all about upcoming releases we can't wait to get into!

This Wednesday I have found 2 books. One I found on another blog *can't remember which SORRY! If/when I do I'll give kudos properly* and the other's title as oppose to my usual cover addiction caught my eye. These books being Sister's Red by Jackson Pearce *I lurves her name!* and The Diary of a Wimpy Vampire: The Undead Have Feelings Too by Tim Collins, respectively.


Sister's Red not only sounds riveting it has one of the best covers I have seen this year.so far. It's like those visual puzzles where there's more than one picture in a picture...I HEART it!
Release Date: June 7 2010

Scarlett March lives to hunt the Fenris-- the werewolves that took her eye when she was defending her sister Rosie from a brutal attack. Armed with a razor-sharp hatchet and blood-red cloak, 


Scarlett is an expert at luring and slaying the wolves. She's determined to protect other young girls from a grisly death, and her raging heart will not rest until every single wolf is dead.

Rosie March once felt her bond with her sister was unbreakable. Owing Scarlett her life, Rosie hunts fiercely alongside her. Now Rosie dreams of a life beyond the wolves and finds herself drawn to Silas, a young woodsman who is deadly with an ax-- but loving him means betraying her sister and has the potential to destroy all they've worked for. 




The Diary of a Wimpy Vampire...like I said the tittle caught my eye and made me chuckle. I lurve The Diary of a Wimpy Kid and it instantly reminded me of it though it's from two different authors and about to completely different things.I don't even like Twilight *Yeah I know everyone in the world does...but I do have a thing for vampires* I hopes its as funny as it suggests. What's even better...it comes out tomorrow :D

Like Edward Cullen in "Twilight", Nigel Mullet was transformed into a vampire when he was still a teenager, and will remain this age forever. 


Unfortunately, Nigel became a vampire at the awkward age of fifteen, and must spend eternity coping with acne, a breaking voice, and an ineptitude with girls...In this, his excruciatingly funny diary, Nigel chronicles his increasingly desperate attempts to be noticed by the love of his life, Della Sparrow, the constant mortification caused by his vampire parents (not to mention the worry that they might accidentally eat one of his friends), and the frustration one feels when you've got the whole of boring eternity stretching out in front of you and you can't even have a lie in (vampires don't sleep).


Forced to hang out with the Goths and emo kids due to his pale skin and social awkwardness, and constantly battling his embarrassingly overwhelming desire to sink his fangs into Della's neck, will Nigel ever get his girl? Fantastically witty and hugely enter taining, this fun and accessible diary will appeal to any fan of "Twilight" or "Adrian Mole", teenage or otherwise...


Well that's what I can't wait to read this week...I lurve it when I find more than one :D
