Book Maniac

I absolutely can't wait for the last book in Cassandra Clare's Dark Artifices Trilogy. The first two are AMAZING and Lord of Shadows ended on one hell of a cliffhanger. Don't read The Dark Artifices until you have read The Mortal Instruments, and preferably the prequels too. Look at this f**king beautiful cover!!! The book comes out on 04/12/18. I may cry. You don't know how much I want to put the blurb here, but it would ruin the first two Dark Artifices and The Mortal Instruments, so no luck!

All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven - a double book review! My  Parabatai , Rachel introduced me to this amazing book, and so I decided - why not review it together? I hope you enjoy this post and comment if you want to see more like this! Before we can continue, I need to warn you. There may be  spoilers.  If you want to read this book, bookmark this web page, go read it and come back! Rachel just wants to say; she's really bad at this.  I just want to say; she's not! One last thing - neither of us knew what the other one had said when we answered the questions so if our answers are similar it is just coincidence and our Parabatai bond! Who was your favourite character? Sasha AKA Book Maniac; That's like asking me who my favourite child is. The two main characters are both amazing and unique. I'm going to have to go with Finch. But wait, I loved Violet so much... Rachel; Theodore Finch How good on a scale of one to ten? Sasha; 9.9...

February prompt - RED                                                RED The first thing that comes to mind at the word red is blood. I guess that has to do with one of my favourite books RED QUEEN. Today I'm going to post a review of some books I have read with the word RED in the title. But first... More about the word red and what it means to me. "Red to call enchantment down" Never wear red with blue. Music For a while, Taylor Swift was my favourite singer. I have all her albums except Reputation. One of them is called Red.  Like many albums, this one is named after one of the songs. Listen to the track RED. CHORUS Losing him was blue like I'd never known Missing him was dark grey all alone Forgetting him was like trying to know somebody you never met But loving him was red Oh, red Burning red ...

Like a lot of books I have read recently, this book didn't draw me in at first. I found Han, one of the main male characters, a bore. But I read further and the characters developed and began to like it more. This book doesn't make my favourite books but I did like it, and will probably read the others.  Raisa was my favourite character. Times are hard in the mountain city   of Fellsmarch.   Reformed thief Han Alister will do almost anything to eke out a living for his family. The only thing of value he has is something he can't sell—the thick silver cuffs he's worn since birth. They're clearly magicked—as he grows, they grow, and he's never been able to get them off. One day, Han and his clan friend, Dancer, confront three young wizards setting fire to the sacred mountain of Hanalea. Han takes an amulet from Micah Bayar, son of the High Wizard, to keep him from using it against them. Meanwhile, Raisa ana'Marianna, princess heir of the Fells, has her own ...

Today signifies the end of my "30 Days of Poetry" challenge. While there was a poem for every day, they weren't always on time! Here is the last poem in this challenge where you are given a daily poetry prompt. I will continue posting the occasional poem though! Ice around my heart does not thaw Into the winter I withdraw Bitten hard by a snake Didn't see it for what it was. my mistake And life isn't sweet as honey It always rains and it's never sunny
