“Empire of Storms” review *NO SPOILERS*

“Empire of Storms” review *NO SPOILERS*

“Empire of Storms” by the queen herself, Sarah J Maas There are books that you ‘get into’, and then there are books that build entire worlds around you and raise characters that have personalities real enough that you feel a familiarity every time you come back to them. There are books written that terrify you to begin reading them because you can’t bear the thought of your favorite characters…

“A darker shade of magic” by V. E. Schwab   Writing The story line was great and I’m glad that the author took the time to set up all the different characters before delving into drama. Though whats the point when you kill off half of them before the books through hey? The worlds took me a little while to get into expecially since I was thinking of them as previous multdimentional novels where…

“Paper Princess’&’Broken Prince by Erin Watt   Well this certainly was not what I was not expecting. With titles like that I thought it would be super cute and Rainbow Rowell-ish but lord was I wrong. My only heads up was a mate told me it’s classified as New adult not YA and thank gosh for that warning. This book was like every stereotypical highschool poor girl \rich hot boy romance but on some…

There is no way after consecutive reading two novels without break that I am going to write any comprehensible reviews so I’m giving a quick run down on my latest book antics before I come back around when I’m of sounder mind and write good and proper reviews.   These are the list of books I’ve read since I was last lucky enough to post   The Raven Cycle Turns out I did actually end up completing…

Re birth!

I was really adamant for the first few months but we all knew that wouldn’t last. And low and behold, I dropped off for probably close to two months. Any other year this would have been fine but I set myself the ridiculous task of reading 120 books this year and I fell back too far to recover which would require literally reading one book every two days for the rest of the year. Which leaves me…

I read the first book ‘The Raven boys” by Maggie Steifvater a few years ago shortly after it came out purely based on my love for her previous series “Shiver” -The Mercy Falls Wolves – which to this day still has some of my most beloved characters(Sam and St Cole.) However the first time I read about Blue and her crazy family and the four troublesome boys I really didn’t like it. I found the story line shonky and it all a little too ‘ look at me and my crazy family, aren’t we so weird and unique.’ The talking trees also just killed it for me.

However as I mentioned in  previous post I’m saving up for my New Zealand trip (14days to go!) and all my funds are going to that, hence no new books. So time for a re read and low and behold second time around I did really like it.

Blue till wasnt a strong character in my opinion and Adams ego and pride got in the way though the poor guy is going to be screwed over romantically in the end. Gansey should just shut up and be happy with his mountains of money and Rowan seems to have a split personality. Noah was a shock but it kept it interesting and Whelk the teacher was a down right sociopath. Her family, eh not impressed but I’m assuming they will develop more in the coming books.

Basically it was a nice easy read with uncomplicated characters and a fairly straight forward plot. Which is exactly what I needed to get me back into the reading swing. Plus ofcourse I do believe this is now a completed series which is  music to any book lovers ears! And they really are the most absolutely gorgeous covers. So come Wednesday I will be driving my pretty little butt down to Dymocks with my flash new ‘gold rewards card’and buying the rest of the series to hopefully smash out befote I head off on my ski trip!

Really though aren’t they gorgeous?

“Tagging,” useless or useful?

I was never too into Instagram or Pinterest purely because I don’t think I have an overtly ‘asthetic’ lifestyle, so when I would see a photo with a solid block of tagging underneath it I thought it was the most obnoxious thing in the world. However I now have grasped that on certain social media sites like this one “tagging” the posts you create make it alot easier for people to stumble across…

Reading slump

In the last three\four weeks I have read a total of three books. That is appalling and I’m pretty disappointed because I set a 120 book challenge this year and worked so hard to keep on top of it for the first five months of the year! However as we all know when funds dry up,books stop flowing and everything comes to a grinding halt. I am off for a ski trip to New Zealand in 15 days so obviously…
