Dude... I have the first two of these, and number three came out and I want it so badly cause number two ended on such a horrible spot!!! >o< I don't have any money! ;-;

I feel selfish. u_u we need food and here i'm wanting a book. r_r; *sigh*

Anyway, I love this series. It's really good. Though it makes me think of a cross between furuba and inu yasha. >_. But it's still really good. I like it! :D Wait I said that... r_r;

Has anyone else read it yet? .-.

I picked it up once, but I never really read it. I'll have to go back and do read it-- for real.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

It's about this girl who can see things in the water. And she gives people 'luck'. But she herself is unlucky.

Well she meets this group of four guys, and they're two leaders. Each person in the group is a certain thing. Like one guy is a vampire, another is a fox demon, another is a werewolf, and I forgot what the 'main' guy was. Some three or four letter word. (My friend has my books right now, or i'd go look).

They're looking for these things called the "Teardrops of the Moon". The group of people that she had met were a group from the lunar race. They're powers only work with the moon, and when there's a new moon coming up when they need to steal a Teardrop.

Turns out the girl is actually the decendent of some kind of princess or something. So they need her to help them. And its about how she helps them to get the teardrops, but this other group comes in thats fighting against them, and the second book ended at the best part!!! >_< I'm dying to know what happens.. ;-;

But I think its really good. u_u

I remember, I read the first ten pages or so. I art was really cute. I just didn't have time to finish it. Well, I know what I'm doing next time I'm in Waldebooks.
