Dusty Reads is a Tuesday meme that I found at Ya-aholic.com and was originally started
at Xpressoreads.com.
This is a meme where I intend to showcase a book that has been on my
shelf for a while and haven’t got to yet.
If you have read this or have heard of this book, I would love to hear
your comments on whether you like it or
not, or have heard great things about it.
This
week, my Dusty Read is:
Jamie Carpenter's life
will never be the same. His father is dead, his mother is missing, and
he was just rescued by an enormous man named Frankenstein. Jamie is
brought to Department 19, where he is pulled into a secret organization
responsible for policing the supernatural, founded more than a century
ago by Abraham Van Helsing and the other survivors of Dracula. Aided by
Frankenstein's monster, a beautiful vampire girl with her own agenda,
and the members of the agency, Jamie must attempt to save his mother
from a terrifyingly powerful vampire.
Department 19 takes us through history, across Europe, and beyond - from the cobbled streets of Victorian London to prohibition-era New York, from the icy wastes of Arctic Russia to the treacherous mountains of Transylvania. Part modern thriller, part classic horror, it's packed with mystery, mayhem, and a level of suspense that makes a Darren Shan novel look like a romantic comedy

I read this book this year and ended up enjoying it. I was a little intimidated by it's length and military speak but glad I picked it up. I just recently picked up the 2nd book.
