(she's in one of those college credit programs) Anyways, this story is written in the form of a letter to him and to "them" who are her parents and the cops.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Now this book is like re-watching a train-wreck. You know that it ended badly because she's having to write this letter, but you just can't stop watching the train-wreck occur. I couldn't stop reading.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">This book made me mostly angry and sad. I should start off by saying that I disliked the main character so much (but I think that was the point), I couldn't believe that she kept all of these lies for so long. I knew that at the end he would find out the truth, but I did not expect to feel so angry and sad and upset for him. God I was so freaking heartbroken for this guy. Just the situation this girl put him in...it was odd because I didn't sympathize for the girl, at all. I feel like the guy was the victim in this. Which is a very interesting way to view this kind of situation.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">That it was written as letters was very interesting, and the story was completely fast-paced but it also felt very short.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">So overall, I disliked the girl, I wanted to slap her while reading, but the ending made me bump it up half a star. I didn't expect it to make me feel the way I did, which was mostly anger and sadness...and yes I cried...but I'm a crier so don't judge me!</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-border-horizontal-spacing: 1px; -webkit-border-vertical-spacing: 1px; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"> </span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03968495786234016263noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873810074236964822.post-23973484803246929782012-12-13T15:25:00.002-08:002012-12-13T15:58:46.316-08:00Giveaway!!

So on the 9th of December I'm going to be 21 years old! Therefore, December has to be an epic month for books too. Also, the year is soon ending and I cannot let it be "the end of the world" without reading these books! I'm only choosing books that I've been dying to read for a <u>long</u> time and that have a rating of 4 stars or higher on Goodreads. So here is the list! What do you guys think?!<br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><b>Book Review:</b> I've wanted to read this book for so long and I finally got my hands on it. I couldn't put it down and read it in a day. The story starts off fast with the first scene being the one in which she gets attacked and almost raped. The book sends a really strong message and an awareness of rape. It's a really good example of how the notion that a rapist can only be some stranger that attacks you in the dark or late at night is untrue. A rapist could be someone you know, someone at school, or work, etc. The book does a good job of making an example of this. </span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">This book is also about new beginnings and love. There of course is a "bad boy" who to me is the opposite of a bad boy. He seems to be completely perfect. I did like that the romance wasn't completely rushed and I enjoyed that they never once said " I love you". The book is through the time span of one college semester. I really enjoyed how the story developed and how it ended. This book is considered to be Mature YA or New Adult so there are some steamy sex scenes or almost sex scenes in the book. </span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03968495786234016263noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873810074236964822.post-38735709547815018802012-11-03T22:50:00.001-07:002012-11-03T22:52:34.924-07:00Book Review: Nevermore By Kelly Creagh<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="float: left; margin-right: 1em; text-align: left;"><tbody>

Steadily pulled away from her friends and her possessive boyfriend, Isobel ventures deeper and deeper into the dream world Varen has created through the pages of his notebook, a realm where the terrifying stories of Edgar Allan Poe come to life.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #181818; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #181818; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #181818; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #181818; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">As her world begins to unravel around her, Isobel discovers that dreams, like words, hold more power than she ever imagined, and that the most frightening realities are those of the mind. Now she must find a way to reach Varen before he is consumed by the shadows of his own nightmares.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #181818; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;"><br /></span></span><br />

It started off good and then I put it down for about a day. When I picked it back up the story really sped up but about the last 150 or so pages the story just went down from there. I was no longer interested in the characters or in the story. I really don't understand the hype around this book, I guess it just wasn't for me. I think there are way more interesting paranormal books out there. I gave it 3 stars, the book was just okay, I don't think I'll be reading the sequel. Nevermore may be more suited for a younger reader.</span></span>Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03968495786234016263noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3873810074236964822.post-50766051061134495352012-11-01T09:15:00.002-07:002012-11-01T09:15:29.384-07:00Followers!Just made a Followers Widget!

<strong style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;">Review:</strong> WOW I don’t even know where to start. This book was…perfect. It was just perfect. I don’t think I’ve read a book that has made me feel so much since like, The Hunger Games. Lauren Oliver is a fantastic writer. She makes her words come to life and is magnificent at painting pictures in your head and making you feel exactly what the main character Lena feels. And not only her, but what the other character’s must be feeling also. </div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 10px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;">
Pandemonium is the sequel to Delirium. Delirium is a dystopia where the government has tried to create a perfect society where love does not exist. Love or as they call it “amor deliria nervosa” is a disease. At about 18 years old you get an operation that will rid you of it. But not only of love but of mostly any feeling. You won’t be able to love or hate or feel any kind of passion. The whole concept is very weird and before you read the book you may think it’ll be very cheesy but it isn’t. Lauren Oliver writes in such a way that it’ll make sense. </div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 10px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;">
I read Delirium a couple of months ago and really enjoyed it, I feared that it’ll be almost the same as “Matched” which I really didn’t enjoy but no it wasn’t. Delerium was really good and set up the world nicely. And the end was a complete cliffhanger so I HAD to read Pandemoium. </div>
<div style="color: #444444; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', HelveticaNeue, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 10px; outline-color: initial; outline-style: none; outline-width: 0px;">
And WOW Pandemonium did not disappoint, it exceeded my expectations. This book was different then Delirium, it had so much more action in it. Right from the beginning the book started with the same momentum that Delirium left off in and it flew from there. The characters were completely amazing. Not once did the book start getting slow. The end of every chapter left me thinking “wow”. </div>

Some new character’s like Raven and Tack where great together. Lena’s mom is still so intriguing. And even though Alex was missing in this book I felt Lena’s feeling for him more than ever. But wow, Julian!! Let’s just talk about Julian, when I heard that this book was going to have a different love interest for Lena, I couldn’t see how that would work, but it did! Julian is adorable! And by the end of this book I was cheering them on so much. Till, the last thing that happened…at the end..</div>

okay in the end when it seems like everything is perfect and it feels like the calm after the storm. And you read this:</div>
