Pretty Little LiarsFor a while now, I’ve seen commercials on ABC Family about a new TV show this summer, The Pretty Little Liars. To me, it looks pretty good. Also, I know it’s a book series. I was wondering if anyone has read it, and if you think I should read the books or not. I don’t know much about what the whole plot is about, but I think someone dies, right? Haha.
What’s your opinion on the Pretty little Liars? Are the books good? Do you think the TV show is going to be even worth watching? Tell me what you think!
(I know I’m a little behind but,) OMG. ohmygod. That is all I have to say about the season finale of Vampire Diaries! The whole episode was completely shocking and unbelievable. Each commercial break left you hanging and anticipating what was going to happen next, (thank God I had it recorded on DVR).
Throughout the episode, there were many deaths, and most of them were vampires. Also, Bonnie, Elena’s best friend threatens Stefan. Elena’s brother, Jeremy takes a huge risk that could change his life forever if it works out, and if this go bad, that might be the last thing he ever does. Many secrets are revealed. And the ending of the episode was a complete cliffhanger! You will not believe who shows up… I can’t wait until the next season!
I’m going to miss my weekly dose of the Salvatore brothers. Mostly Damon. He’s my favorite. But I will miss Stefan…A little.
Keep me posted if you hear anything about the next season! Also, tell me what you thought about the season finale!
Hahaha. That is right, zero stars. Dear John was probably one of the worst books I have ever picked up. No joke. I couldn’t even make it to chapter three. I know what you might be thinking; that I’m not giving the book a chance and blah, blah, blah. But too bad. I started to read this book unsure if I would even like it at all, actually I was kind of certain I wouldn’t love it. I can’t stand cliché and predictable stories like this one. They bother me immensely. I mean, c’mon, be original! It’s not that hard!
But anyway, the beginning of Dear John was SO boring. I swear I was forcing myself to read the first chapter. Not one thing made me want to keep reading. So, I stopped reading. I didn’t even finish the book. Yes, that bothers me that I didn’t finish it, but I am not going to force and torture myself to try to read it.
Tell me what you think! Did you like Dear John? Hate it? Is the movie any good? Leave your comments.
(Oh, and I won’t be reading any other Nicholas Sparks books!)
Zoë’s life is crashing down around her. Her mom is dying of cancer, her only best friend is moving far away, and he dad is never home and barely says anything to her. She’s by herself most of the time, and she has learned to take care of herself.
Simon hates who he is and hates his past. He hates his older brother, who is frozen in time as a young child vampire, who turned him into what he is. He just wants someone, anyone, to love him and to love.
When Simon and Zoë both meet, both of their lives change forever and nothing will be the same. Will their love last? Or will Christopher finally get the best of his fellow vampire brother?
At first, I wasn’t sure if I would like this book. I thought it would be a really pointless vampire romance novel, but it turned out to be exactly the opposite! Annette Curtis Klause is an amazing writer. She intertwined the complicated teenage life with the life of a true vampire; true vampire as in pale skin, burned by sun, afraid of crucifixes and running water. All that good stuff packed into one, with a completely unexpected, heart wrenching ending.

This book picks up right after Zoey and everyone else banishes Kalona and Neferet from Tulsa. In the beginning, Zoey is filled with angst and confusion, (which kind of gets annoying after a while, just to let you know.) Memories from Zoey’s past life as A-ya, the woman created to trap Kalona thousands of years ago, flood her memories and dreams. And Kalona is also trying to use Zoey and convince her that he is not evil, he is only evil with Neferet and he can be good with her, by getting into her dreams.
Throughout this book, the point of view switches to Stevie Rae, and she gets really annoying. Like truthfully, I found myself not even wanting to read anymore because the couple chapters she had annoyed and bored me so much.
Anyway, all this crazy stuff goes down in the end of the book, and it changes everything. The ending itself was confusing, and a definite cliff-hanger. If the Casts didn’t have this ending to tempted, I truthfully wouldn’t read the next book, Burned. I wasn’t too impressed with Tempted.
This TV show is based on the series of books by L.J. Smith. Seriously, I tried reading the first book to the Vampire Diaries, and I couldn’t even get into it. It was kind of boring, and I really don’t like Smith’s writing that much. (And I don’t understand the order of the books, because they all have three parts or whatever. Could someone explain that to me?) But, besides that, I am obsessed with the TV show!
The main character, Elena Gilbert, (played by Nina Dobrev) is torn between two vampire brothers, Stefan (Paul Wesley) and Damon Salvatore (Ian Somerhalder). I know this might seem kind of cliché, but that isn’t what the whole series is about. Basically, the main controversy is between Stefan and Damon because in the past, they both loved the same girl, Katherine Pierce, who turned them into vampires. Weirdly enough, Elena looks exactly like Katherine. I don’t understand that, and hopefully they’ll explain that soon.
There are a lot of other main plot points, like how vampires in the city of Mystic Falls, Virginia, date very far back. There are a lot of vampire fights, surprising moments, and huge cliffhangers! I love this show.
I’m super sad though, because the first season finale is May 13th, 2010. I will be waiting for it to come back!!

Max and the flock are in trouble again. Angel says Fang will be the first to die. Soon. And after meeting Dr. Hans in Africa, Max left right away. Something just wasn’t right about that guy. Dr. Hans introduced Max to her “perfect other half”. Another human-bird hybrid named Dylan. How could Dylan be her perfect other half when she had Fang? And are Dr. Hans and Dylan just a part of the plot to kill Fang?
Whoa, okay…what happened? This book was actually somewhat…good.
That’s right. FANG actually had a plot, unlike the fourth and fifth book in this series, The Final Warning and MAX. The only thing I couldn’t stand whatsoever about this book was the “romance” part to it. Okay. I understand if Max and Fang like each other. Whatever. But I don’t think anyone can find their “soul mate” at fifteen. Like really? That’s kind of corny and unrealistic. And it kind of got annoying how Max being with Fang was basically the whole point of the book and the other characters just got shoved to the side, fought some Erasers and got tested on. But hey – this book at least had a plot.
Excited for the next one? I sure don’t know.
The Forest of Hands and Teeth house the most disgusting and deadliest things, the Unconsecrated, who are basically walking dead people. Zombies. And all they want to do is Infect more people, devour more flesh.
All Mary wants is the love she lost. Being recently orphaned, abandoned by her brother, and being rejected for marriage; she has no other choices. She joins the Sisterhood. She still hopes for life beyond the gates surrounding her village.
Then, something totally unexpected throws Mary’s world into chaos. She has to choose. She has to choose between her hopes and dreams, the ones she loves and the ones who love her. Between her village and the world beyond the gates. She still hopes.
How can you hope when every day, you wake up to nothing but death surrounding you?
Wow, all I have to say is wow. At first, I didn’t expect this book to be good at all. When I first started reading this, I thought this book was going to be about a girl becoming a nun-type woman of the Sisterhood while moping around about her life. But it turned out to awesome! I love The Forest of Hands and Teeth, the idea of the zombie people, and I can’t wait to read the next book!
