ideas

So I had some ideas for themed days i don't know if its the lack of sleep or what but i think these sound pretty good. Easy Monday's where i will post up reviews to some romantic comedies. The reason for calling it easy Monday is because romantic comedies are nice, funny, and easy to read books on a Monday when everybody is tired and wishing we didn't have to go back to school/work or whatever. weirdo Wednesday's a day to review sci-fi, paranormal or anything out of this world. Now the only question is if i will be able to keep up with these themed days hopefully i will and i will start on the September 7 till then i will post what i have read and whine about my life =). Oh and i am almost done with Blood Promise.

followers!

Alright people i need to get some more followers! so i say that if i can at least double my following i will put up a contest this week or next. Not sure what the grand prize will be but a couple of people will get chosen at random to get some free books as well so please refer people and lets get this blog thing going.

Dead Girls Don't Write Letters


Okay so have I finished reading Dead Girls don't Write Letters by Gail Giles. Apparently the book is a sequel to Shattering Glass which i did not find out till i had started reading. surprinsingly though i was not confused at all, it could be a stand alone book and i would completely get the story. so now I have to read Shattering Glass but i can' t till i fininsh blood promise. Okay back to DGDWL it was a really good book i kind of identified with sunny, sometimes we can get overshadowed by our older siblings accomplishments, although not to the extreme where i would hate my sibling like sunny. She is just fourteen years old and feels like she doesnt belong not even with her own family it was bad enough when her older sister was around and her parents were just falling all over themselves to give her what she wanted but now with jazz dead then not dead things can't get worse. Right? wrong they can because this back from the dead jazz is not jazz. i give it a 4/5.

Pages(description)

Okay so i just realized that some people who come on here have no idea what my pages blogs are about so i have been trying to write a book on and off for the last two years and i finally have some stuff that i haven't ripped, erased or destroyed. So that's what those blog posts are about. I don't even know what i want to do with my writing but i do want to share it with anybody who will read it.


Basically the story is about a teenage girl who lost her best friend to a drunk driving accident but that friend was the drunk driver. Now Elizabeth lives with the guilt of her best friends death in an effort to forget she leaves all her problems when she moves to a new city but soon learns that you cant really escape your past.

told in alternating points of view with Sam who became an orphan at the age of two, no that's not true but it might as well be with the attention his dad gives him ever since his mom left them, life changed, at first it was nothing but soon it became his dad drowning his sorrows with alcohol and Sam just doing everything to not care just plain acting out till he went too far.



okay so thats it in a nutshell. please comment on this just to let me know if it sucks or i should keep going. Thanks.

Greetings people of earth

Okay so I have been very out of touch with everything especially my world of books but starting today I'm going to change that. I haven't read anything lately due to school starting up and well ITS THE FIRST WEEK OF SCHOOL! What kind of monsters are these school people to make us be at school so early. Don't get me wrong i love Pi's(not the eating kind) and history but it would be so much better to learn at a more reasonable hour. But alas i am going way off the point of this blog entry and that point is that starting this weekend I will start reviewing books, I got two new ones today so watch for those to be here tommorow...and that's about it. Please comment or whatever so that i know im not talking?writing? to myself.

pages part 2

When we arrived at school my mom asked.
“Do you want me to go in with you and help you get settled?” she asked hopefully.
“No mom I’m fine I will see you afterschool.” I said quicklyMy mom was very protective after these last couple of weeks since I was released from the hospital. Our relationship wasn’t the same either but that is how I liked it I didn’t want her attention anymore I didn’t deserve it. So I took a deep breath and readied myself to enter the devils lair


so come on if anybody reads this please comment here, message me on PI or on B&N

buzzzzzzzzzzzz!

Well I didn’t get to post my review or anything yesterday but do not fear I will today.
Alrighty, then! So I recently bought Spin Control and Do-Over by Niki Burnham. They are both sequels to the book royally jacked. And are romantic comedies (I need a light read sometimes) anyways they aren’t really deep books but they are an easy and funny read. So for those who haven’t read the first book this here is small description of the book form the back flap

Valerie's life is pretty good. While she's not the most popular girl in school, she does have decent grades, great friends, and a potential boyfriend. All a girl could want.
Then her mother announces that (1) she's gay, and (2) she's leaving Valerie's dad for her girlfriend. Not what Valerie envisioned for her future. And just when Valerie is getting over this bombshell, her father tells her he's gotten a new job as protocol chief for the royal family of some obscure European country.
Valerie's world has come unglued. She can either stay in Virginia with her mom and her über-organized, veggie-burger-eating girlfriend, or go with her dad, leaving everything she knows for some place she's never heard of. Valerie opts to go, and quickly discovers that it was a mistake — until she meets the prince, and all bets are off!

If you liked the first one might as well read the next two if not I give them a 3 out of 5.

Ch.1
First day of junior year, my parents were waiting downstairs to take me to hell A.K.A. high school. I looked out the window before heading out, to see whether or not i needed a sweater and the answer was yes. Here in the middle of nowhere USA the weather was like a pregnant woman her moods constantly changing. One day it could be so hot i needed shorts the next so cold I needed thermals to keep me warm. Right now it looked like this lady was about to cry so I grabbed a jacket and went to the car.
My parents were staring.
"what?" i snapped
They just turned around and drove.I couldnt blame them for not being used to my new wardrobe it was a drastic change from what I used to wear at my old high school, but that seemed like a whole other world from the one i was in now. My clothes consisted of black...and more black but just my clothes no makeup or cosmetics i don't believe in looking better by torturing animals plus not covering up my face was the least i deserved for what had happened last spring.



okay thats it for now please comment even if you dont like it. THANKS

Novice

Okay so aside from trying to review books i will also be posting chapters to a story i have been trying to write.It is currently untitled.

Hard Love

so I've recently read this very good book called Hard love. It's about a teenage boy who is basically a loner except for his one friend. He writes free magazines and loves one in particular. he decides to try and find the author and when he does a friendship grows but for him its more than that even though she is gay and has told him so many times. This is a great book for anybody who has gone through a liking my best friend phase, or just want to read about friendship and when that line blurs, and of course unrequited love.
I definitely recommend this book.

to blog or not to blog?

So the answer is yes i will blog. Basically i read a lot of books so why not share my opinions with the world right?of course I'm right. So every time i finish a new book i will write a short review and advice people on whether its good enough to go out and get.
