Book Reviews of Peeps (Bccb Blue Ribbon Fiction Books (Awards))
Book Review: My first teen lit... since I was a teen.
Summary: 4 Stars
So a girl at my work recommended I read Scott Westerfeld books. We work in a bookstore and apparently nobody else that we worked with had ever read any of them and she wanted to talk with somebody that had read them. Lets just say, WOW! I didn't realize that teen lit could be good! I really liked this book. I don't normally like books about vampires, but this book was more about vampirism as a parasite. And at the end the book made it seem like it was a necessary parasite, which sent chills down my spine. I would have given this book 5 stars except for some of the vocabulary. It was absolutely ridiculous how many times the author used the word 'anathema' in the book. Nobody uses that word, especially a teenager, but if I hear a ton of teens using that word, I will know why. It is almost like he kept using that word to make the teens feel like they were reading a 'grown up' book, when 'grown up' books don't even use that word. I just took the book less and less seriously every time that word was used, which was probably a hundred or more times.
