My Big Surprise

Well last night I got a HUGE surprise. I knew that my dad's friend was making a bookshelf for me but I wasn't for sure when he would be done. Turns out he was done yesterday and when I got back home from some errands they were there caring it into my room! I was so excited because my books have been stacked on my floor for a long time and now they have a nice home. So this is the picture of my books on their nice new shelf!

And I already have it almost all the way filled. Looks like I'll need another one soon or move some books back into my night stand where they were, either way there is still room so that mean more books!

Happy Reading  :]

                The Mediator (#5) Haunted

                     By Meg Cabot

I was sitting there cursing Paul Slater - not  to mention Jimmy Choo - for all I was worth  when I heard Jesse utter a curse that, even though it was in Spanish, burned my ears.

It was so like Jake to bring home a haunted guest.

Going Too Far

 Title: Going Too Far

Author: Jennifer Echols

Publisher: PocketBooks/ MTV Books

Pages: 256

Obtained: Bought

Rating: 5/5

All Meg has ever wanted is to get away. Away from high school. Away from her backwater town. Away from her parents who seem determined to keep her imprisoned in their dead-end lives. But one crazy evening involving a dare and forbidden railroad tracks, she goes way too far...and almost doesn't make it back.
John made a choice to stay. To enforce the rules. To serve and protect. He has nothing but contempt for what he sees as childish rebellion, and he wants to teach Meg a lesson she won't soon forget. But Meg pushes him to the limit by questioning everything he learned at the police academy. And when he pushes back, demanding to know why she won't be tied down, they will drive each other to the edge -- and over....



I loved this book so much. I Loved the romance between Meg and John. How their love seemed so forbidden and yet you wanted them to take it to the next level. This book is not all about romance, it's about something bigger, well that's what I think but I can't tell you because it would spoil a major part in the book. I love the way Jennifer writes, it's so well put together and keeps you wanting more. I can't wait to read another one of her books.

I'm sucker for romance and like I said before Meg, and John had it. Meg seems like she just keeps egging John on and that what makes you want more. Meg, well she's a little crazy and John, well he's strict and strun so it makes them total oppostite from each other yet so perfect for each other.

If you haven't read this book yet YOU MUST. It is one of the best books I have ever read, and that's saying alot! I'm still thinking about it and I finished reading it almost 2 weeks ago. I keep wanting to know what's going to happen next. In a way I think it would make a great movie but I don't want them to ruin such a great book.

Happy Reading :}

Fighting The Cold

Hey everyone I know that this week I haven't done ANYTHING with the blog (which makes me sad ) but that is because I have been  sick all week. But I do have some exciting stuff to show so hopefully next week I'm back on my feet :}

Waiting on Wednsday (Wow) (2)

Waiting on Wednsday is hosted by Jill @ breaking the spine

Waiting on Wednseday is where we share upcoming books that we're excited for.

Here is my book that I can't wait for.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Title: Bumped

Author: Megan McCafferty

Published By : Balzer + Bray

Release Date: April 26th 2011

 

When a virus makes everyone over the age of eighteen infertile, would-be parents are forced to pay teen girls to conceive and give birth to their children, making teens the most prized members of society.

Sixteen-year-old identical twins Melody and Harmony were separated at birth and had never met until the day Harmony shows up on Melody’s doorstep. Until now, the twins have followed completely opposite paths. Melody has scored an enviable conception contract with a couple called the Jaydens. While they are searching for the perfect partner for Melody to bump with, she is fighting her attraction to her best friend Zen, who is way too short for the job.

Harmony has spent her whole life in religious Goodside, preparing to be a wife and mother. She believes her calling is to bring Melody back to Goodside and convince her that “pregging” for profit is a sin. But Harmony has secrets of her own that she is running from.

When Melody is finally matched with the world-famous, genetically flawless Jondoe, both girls’ lives are changed forever. A case of mistaken identity takes them on a journey neither could have ever imagined, one that makes Melody and Harmony realize they have so much more than just DNA in common

 

I can't wait for this book to come out because I think it sounds really cool. Plus must YA books don't usually talk about teens getting or being pregant and here is a book that takes it to that level, well so it sounds. It just sound like a really interesting book to me. And I have never really heard of a book that sounds like this one, and that is pretty much why it is my WoW of this week.    :}

 Plus for some reason I'm on this dystopian genres kick right now, seeing as a finished The Hunger Games trilogy last month I've gotten into that genre of book.

                   Going too Far

                   By Jennifer Echols

"You are not going to put her back in there," Lois said in disbelief

"Lois, I didn't pick her up for jaywalking. You're going to let her spend the night sipping Sprite and watching TV?"

It took a second to sink in. Then I screamed, "What? That cop is the Devil!"

MockingJay

Title: Mockingjay
Author: Suzanne Collins
Publsihed by: Scholastic
Source: Borrowed from libary but want to own
Rating: 5/5

Young Katniss Everdeen has survived the dreaded Hunger Games not once, but twice, but even now she can find no relief. In fact, the dangers seem to be escalating: President Snow has declared an all-out war on Katniss, her family, her friends, and all the oppressed people of District 12. The thrill-packed final installment of Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games trilogy will keep young hearts pounding.





I really really loved this book, even though I didn't want the trilogy to end I guess it had to. This book made me very emotional and that's what I loved about it. Well almost everything about it. At the end I wanted to throw the book on the ground and cry because to of my favorite characters died (but you don't know who they are ;] (winky face) so I'm technically not giving away to much). As for the ending I feel that it was okay because I've been reading what other bloggers and people have been saying about it. But in the end I feel it was a happy ending.

It was really beautifully written. and I loved all the covers, but I'm sad to see it end. The first book The Hunger Games is my favorite out of the three. If you haven't picked up this trilogy yet you need to!

WOW (Waiting on Wednseday)

This is my first waiting on Wednseday or WoW which is hosted by Jill @ breaking the spine

Waiting on Wednseday is where we share upcoming books that we're excited for.

Here is my book that I can't wait for. ( I have more than one but this one will do.)

I'll also put the book that I own that I can't wait to dig into.

Midnight (The Vampire Diaries: The Return #3)

By L.J. Smith

Published by HarperCollins
Release date: March 15th 2011

The vampire love triangle that spawned hundreds of thousands of fans-and inspired a hit television show-concludes in this powerful final volume of The Vampire Diaries. In Midnight, golden girl Elena Gilbert is back from the Dark Dimension, having successfully freed her vampire boyfriend Stefan Salvatore from imprisonment. Saving Stefan had an unlikely consequence: his vampire brother Damon Salvatore has become a mortal. While the trio reels from this latest twist, they must still deal with the demons that have taken over Elena's hometown, Fell's Church. As in every L.J. Smith novel, no matter how dark the night, there is always a happy ending. MIDNIGHT takes Elena, Stefan, and Damon to their darkest moments yet...Danger, romance, and paranormal mystery will keep readers fascinated with this captivating finale to the New York Times bestselling series.

Wow! I cannot wait till this comes out. The Vampire Diaries is one of my favorite vampire series that gets better every book. And that's why I can't wait because if you can't tell I really like theses books and I bet this one will be just as good. Plus look at the cover, in a way it's different from the others because it doesn't havea blonde girl on it or a hot vampire boy on it. It's got Bonnie on it, and come on who doesn't love that girl. So this is my WOW of the week. I will also like the title of the book to its goodreads page.

My New Plan

Hey everyone, I have come up with a new plan of action. I don't want this blog to be all book reviews. I want it to be fun and something new everytime I get the chance to post something. So my new plan is to sometimes deicate a month to one author that I like or maybe a series of books. Now this doesn't mean that I will be reading that authors books that month or week or whenever I do this. It just means that I think people should know about this author or book series. Maybe I will be reading that book or author at that time or just finished a book by them or have read it in the past.

It's just an idea I had and I think I'm going to post it soon, because I have an Author in mind.  I'm not for sure yet whether I will do a vlog or just a blog yet. It's still an idea in the making! :)

the Seventh Daughter

Tania has brought the long-lost Queen Titania back to Faerie from the Mortal World of modern London. But when they cross between the worlds, they find only devastation.
The Sorcerer King of Lyonesse -- ancient enemy of the Faerie Court -- has been released from his amber prison. As the wicked sorcerer regains his power, King Oberon, Tania's father, is imprisoned and the Faerie Court is being destroyed.
Tania and her true love, Edric, must travel the Realm to try to find and rescue King Oberon, who is their only hope for defeating the evil Sorcerer King. And Tania must prepare for battle . . . and to fight a war that she may not survive.

The Seventh Daughter by Frewin Jones

Publisher: Eos (HaperCollins Publishers)

Pages:324

Sourse: Bought/paperback

Rating 5/5

I really enjoy the Faeie Path series, and is also in my top 3 of Fairy books (because I have not read alot of fairy books). But besides that it really is a good book. The 3rd one has to be my favorite so far.

When you start the book you have to ge used to the lanugage they use because I would say they use Middle age or Old age English, which I feel gives charactor to the book. The book always has something going on and if you put it down, you're thinking about what is about to happen to Tania and the others next.

I'm not going to spoil it but I will say that some MAJOR things happen in this book, and one thing you won't believe it happens. But I'm not going to spoil it for you so you will have to either 1) start the series [first book is Faerie Path], 20 if you have the series keep reading and #3 [this one] won't dissapoint you, or 3) if you have this book and like the series put it some where near the top of your reading pile.

P.S. I should mention that this book was previously published as The Sorcerer King but it was republished as The Seventh Daughter.

Feast of Fools

Feast of Fools
The tenuous good-neighbor policy between the vampires and humans of Morganville is turned on its head with the arrival of bad-to-the-bone Mr. Bishop. What the ancient old-school vampire wants from the town is unthinkably sinister. It's only at a formal ball that Claire realized the elaborately evil trap Bishop has set for the warm-blooded souls of Morganville.

Feast of Fools by Rachel Caine

Publisher:  New American Library (NAL)

Age Group: Young Adult

Pages: around 209

Source: Bought

Rating: 5/5

This is the 4th book in the MorganVille Vampire Series. I really love this series and it's in the top 5 for vampire series books for me.

You are introduced to some new charactors. One being one of my new favorite charactors in this book. Myrnin, who can be alittle well mad here and ther. But I don't want to give his charactor away to much for you. This book kept you turning pages to see what happens next, and let me tell you that some big things do happen and keep happening throughout the book.

For me Feast of Fools did not have any really slow points because it picks back up where you left of f in Midnight Alley (Which I remember is where you first meet Myrnin, but he gets better in this book). And of course Feast of Fools leaves you with a cliff hanger ( I think Rachel Caine likes to do that to us in this series).

If you are a fan of the Vampire Genres, I highly suggest you read the MorganVille Vampire Series. The first is Glass House

I'm Back

Are You Alone On Purpose

Are you alone on Purpose?

by Nancy Werlin

From: Speak

204 Pages.

3.5/5

Harry and Alison are the worst of enemies. But when Harry suffers a paralyzing accident and his father, a rabbi, begins to tutor Alison's autistic twin brother for his bar mitzvah, the two begin to find comfort from each other.

This book was a quick read. I enjoyed it. The story had a good meaning to it, kind of like even if it doesn't seem like it our parents do care for us, but sometimes its hard for them to show it. This happened to Alison. She figured she had to be the good child because of her brother's disablity. Harry thinks that his dad cares nothing for him, and is crazy because he talks to his dead mom. Harry and Alison don't get along at first because Harry makes fun of Alison and her brother. But as time goes by Harry and Alison start spending more time with each other and it soon becomes more.

I said the book was good true, but for me, I started to get bored in the middle of it. True somethings were happening but for me they were going to slowly. I wanted more to come out of Harry and Alisons relationship, and Harry and his fathers relationship. True the ending was good, but the ending is when you finally get to see the side of Alison you've been wanted to see. I think this book as a good point in its plot, and it's one that i would read for a quick read. It was an okay book.

So

so everyone.... i have finished The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. Omg it its so amazing you must read it now.

image from Bing.com

     The Hunger Games is about a girl named Katniss, and she took her sister's place in whats called the Hunger Games. Which happens every year by the Capital. They do it to show the Districts who is boss is boss mostly. This book will keep you turning pages and never want to put it down. It makes you cry one moment and laugh the next.

I give it a 5/5

P.S. I hear they are going to make a movie out of it!

my first blog

well world.... this is my very first blog. If you are wondering i am mosly doing this because i was inspired by the Story Siren. I loved what she was doing and wanted to start my own. So give me a chance to figure this all out, cuz it might take me some time then i might get alittle better... hopefully.

Anyways Happy Reading
