TROLL PRINCESS

2011-06-07T12:25:00.000-07:00

Switched (Trylle Trilogy, Book 1) - the first book in the Trylle Trilogy...

When Wendy Everly was six years old, her mother was convinced she was a monster and tried to kill her. It isn't until eleven years later that Wendy discovers her mother might have been right.

With the help of Finn Holmes, Wendy finds herself in a world she never knew existed - a world both beautiful and frightening, and Wendy's not sure she wants to be a part of it.

This is the first book I bought when I got my Kindle 3G, Free 3G + Wi-Fi, 3G Works Globally, Graphite, 6" Display with New E Ink Pearl Technology. It was ranked number 1 and it was a 99 cent book.

Its about a girl who's mother tried to girl her on her birthday. After that her and her brother started living with her aunt. There is a new boy at school and it always seems like he is watching her. He's really mysterious and definitely hot. One day she hears noises outside her window and goes down and is attacked by these people. Turns out she is the princess of the Trylle and she needs to return home. When she gets to the kingdom she finds out that it is huge. The Trylle switch their babies when they are first born with a human baby so that when the humans will give the Trylle infant money and then they can give the money to the Trylle community. Hard concept but i hope you understand it. Wendy has a hard time living without her brother and wants him to be there with her.

The entire story is pretty much a love story but Wendy has a hard time getting along with her mother because she doesnt think that her mom likes her. Finn likes her but he always puts his loyalty towards the kingdom and keeping Wendy safe that he wont risk being with her. The entire book you want her to just be with Finn

What happens and who does she end up with find out from the next Trylle Trilogy blog.

Matched
by: Ally Condie
Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows he is her ideal mate . . . until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black. The Society tells her it's a glitch, a rare malfunction, and that she should focus on the happy life she's destined to lead with Xander. But Cassia can't stop thinking about Ky, and as they slowly fall in love, Cassia begins to doubt the Society's infallibility and is faced with an impossible choice: between Xander and Ky, between the only life she's known and a path that no one else has dared to follow.

I read this book a while ago so I thought that I could just give a quick review on what I thought about it. It’s about a girl named Cassia and where she lives everything is decided for her, what she eats, what she wears, where she works, and worst of all who she marries. So when the day comes for Cassia to get matched she is really excited because she has waited for this day her whole life. On the day of her banquet she is matched with her best friend Xavier and she couldn’t be happier. When she finally gets around to looking at the chip card that tells her more about Xavier another person also pops up its her friend Ky.

Basically Cassia starts to develop feelings for Ky but she is not supposed to because she is matched with Xavier. It’s pretty much melts down to Cassia wanting to be with Ky.

When I was reading the book I thought it was a good book however thinking about it right now I’m starting to think that maybe it wasn’t the best books. However the is a second book Crossed (Matched) is coming out in November and I will still read it because I feel like I should read it. You know what I mean?

Bridesmaids

2011-06-04T15:29:00.000-07:00

SO FUNNY

I just went and saw the new comedy Bridesmaids and it was really funny. Not going to lie when I first saw the trailer it didn’t think that it was going to be an amazing movie but then more and more people were seeing it and saying that it was really funny I just had to see it for myself. The only thing was that I was kind of expecting it to be pee your pants funny because everyone was building it up so much so I think I was a little over prepared for the comedy. But just want to say that if you haven’t seen it you should definitely get out there and see it.

The Summer I Turned Pretty

2011-06-04T08:17:00.000-07:00

Belly measures her life in summers. Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August. Winters are simply a time to count the weeks until the next summer, a place away from the beach house, away from Susannah, and most importantly, away from Jeremiah and Conrad. They are the boys that Belly has known since her very first summer--they have been her brother figures, her crushes, and everything in between. But one summer, one terrible and wonderful summer, the more everything changes, the more it all ends up just the way it should have been all along.

Well first off I would like to say how lucky Belly is to be with two hot guys all summer like am I right ladies?

Belly has been going away every summer since she was born to the cottage on the beach. Also ever since she was young she has been in love with the bad boy Conrad. Conrad is the kind of guy you love to hate in books but are never real in the real world because if they are bad in the real world they tend to be total druggies. ANYWAYS he is hot you can just tell the way that Belly describes him. As for Belly she has been going through some awkward stages in her life until she got taller lost the baby fat and got pretty! YAY for her. Now she has to get through the summer because this may be the last time she has the chance to make Conrad fall in love with her.

So when the guys find out that she has turned hot they can’t believe it Conrad and his brother Jeremiah have been family friends forever because their mother (Susannah) has been best friends with Belly’s mom (Laurel) for a very long time. Susannah has been like a second mom to Belly and has always been there for her.

This book was really good and I was able to read it really fast because it was so enjoyable. I recommend it for a summer read to everyone cause you never know hey this may happen to you;) The Summer I Turned Pretty

The Uglies

2011-06-04T08:00:00.000-07:00

Tally is about to turn sixteen, and she can't wait. Not for her license -- for turning pretty. In Tally's world, your sixteenth birthday brings an operation that turns you from a repellent ugly into a stunningly attractive pretty and catapults you into a high-tech paradise where your only job is to have a really great time. In just a few weeks Tally will be there.

But Tally's new friend Shay isn't sure she wants to be pretty. She'd rather risk life on the outside. When Shay runs away, Tally learns about a whole new side of the pretty world -- and it isn't very pretty. The authorities offer Tally the worst choice she can imagine: find her friend and turn her in, or never turn pretty at all. The choice Tally makes changes her world forever.

The reason that I bought this book was because I felt like I kept seeing it everywhere I go and whenever I saw it it really caught my attention. So I decided to buy the book at last!

I’m not finished the book but I thought that I could at least start with how I feel about the first chunk of the book.

The pretties have this amazing life and they get whatever they want. They have the perfect face perfect body perfect everything.

She knows this place called The Smoke and she wants to go there. Tally needs to stay though because her whole life she has wanted to turn pretty. When Shay leaves she gives Tally instructions on how to get there. I guess you can call them the police basically find out Shay has left for The Smoke they want Tally to find her and they won’t let her turn pretty until she does it. Tally has now started the journey to find her best friend so she can fulfill her dream of being pretty.Uglies (The Uglies)

The reason that i started this blog was because i always wanted to find out what other people were reading and that if they were a teen and i was also reading the book i wanted to know if they felt the same way i did about the book. Seeing as i have 0 followers i just don’t know how to get there. I want to find a way to get everyone to know about my blog so i can give people advice on whether or not a book is good.

A book that i have recently read is A Kiss In Time by Alex Flinn. Alright so here’s the thing when i was younger i really loved the Disney movies and the stories about princesses. Therefore i love what Flinn is doing with stories and making them into modern day fairy tales.

The story is like a modern day Sleeping Beauty. It’s about a girl named Talia who is a princess. She has been sleeping for 300 years because of a curse. The only way that she could be awoken is from a kiss of her true love.

One day while travelling jack comes across a beautiful castle and when he sees Talia the first thing he notices is how beautiful she is and he wants to kiss her. When he does however she is awoken and it is a huge catastrophe because everyone is really mad that she cursed the people and that they have been sleeping for so long. So Talia flees the country back to the U.S. with Jack.

Jack however finds her annoying as hell but realizes that there is something about her that is so different and that he is starting to grow feelings for her.

All around i enjoyed the book it is definitely an easy read but i do recommend this book and also any other Alex Flinn novels.A Kiss in Time

Beautiful Darkness

2011-02-02T16:41:00.000-08:00

The second book to Beautiful Creature was Beautiful Darkness. When i started reading this book i was worried that it was going to take me forever to read it because it had 503 pages and the writing wasn’t the kind of writing that was in book that you could read in half a day. When i first started reading it i was also worried because when i started them book i remember that it had been SO long since i read the first book. Like I’m talking a year ago probably. The beginning was really hard to understand because of that. The authors Kamia Garcia and Margret Stohl did a very good job of going over the details of the previous book without throwing too much information at you where you were overwhelmed. The book itself did not last long at all. It is pretty embarrassing to admit that i read this book in little over a day! It was a very good book. Throughout the book Lena, Ethan Wates girlfriend is going through a rough time deciding if she is dark or light. She believes that she is the reason that her Uncle Macon died. She thinks that the reason her uncle died was because she used his as a sacrifice to bring Ethan back to life. She pushes Ethan away and starts to hang out with her Siren cousin Ridley and the new boy John Breed. Everything begins to change and Ethan feels like he needs to change the way that things are and he is the only person that can help save Lena. With the fate of their family it was going to be hard to change her fate. I was really happy with the book and i didn’t really notice the parts that really dragged on. For someone who was not interested in the book i would be able to see how they felt that the book dragged on for some parts. The part that made me most mad was the ending. The way the book finished to legit left you hanging on the edge. The worst part is that i have to wait until fall and if i continue to read the books the 4th and I’m pretty sure final book comes out in 2012. THAT’S IN FOREVER. O well until then i keep reading. Enjoy everyone. Beautiful Darkness (Beautiful Creatures, Book 2)

2011-02-01T09:28:00.000-08:00

ive been having such a hard time sitting down and reading since i finished city of bones. the books i have picked are The Lost Saint, Beautiful Darkness, and Vampire Academy. if someone comes across this blog and has read on can you tell me which one is best. thaanks

AMAZING

2011-01-31T17:47:00.001-08:00

i never thought it was possible for a book to make me feel the way that City of Bones did. it was incredible the twist at the end was mouthwatering i recommend this book to EVERYONE it was soooooooooooo good. the only way that i can describe it is by extending my words to show my enthusiasm. AMAZING

addiction

2011-01-31T09:38:00.000-08:00

The series The Mortal Instruments is going to be my new addiction. I am only halfway done the book and i LOVE it. It’s so hard to put it down. The characters in this book are incredible there's Clary the main girl who feels like she has been lost her entire life until her mother goes missing and she finds Jace the shadowhunter who begins to change her world. The story has tons of action to offset the romance so it can be read by both male and female. But from a girls point of view Jace and Clary are just so adorable and you know that there is going to be something between them with the way they bicker. AHHH i love it and i can’t wait to finish it and read the next one. I ALSO heard that they are making it into a movie. Am i the only person that kind of hates to hear that? Whenever they make a book into a movie it is never as good as the book. I think that's because when you read you are allowed to let your mind wander and just let it be free. When you read you are able to make your own Edward Cullen and your own Romeo. When the movies get involved sometimes it feels like your dream is kind of shifted because they never get the characters right or they leave out the best parts. i hope they don’t totally badger this movie it has some great potential and Cassandra Clare really deserves to be praised for the good movie they can make out of it.City of Bones (Mortal Instruments)

really excited

2011-01-29T13:50:00.001-08:00

the most embarrassing thing

2011-01-28T20:14:00.001-08:00

when you go check how many profile views you had and you realize that its growing but only because you keep looking at your own profile. AWKWARD. what are the chance of someone seeing this blog haha. alright goodnight im still going to give this a try.

City of Bones

2011-01-28T20:05:00.000-08:00

I’m not that far into City of Bones by Cassandra Clare but so far it is pretty good. I like it because she met the love interest early and it doesn’t make you sit there and think when he will be here…. He seems like a pretty cute like a tough guy brings a smile to your face. I hope it continues to grow I think I will like this books. I’ve heard many people like it.City of Bones (Mortal Instruments)

new book

2011-01-28T20:01:00.002-08:00

Yeaaayy. Since i have the biggest obsession with reading books i sometimes feel the need to just buy books whenever i see the ones that i like. It’s actually a really bad obsession that has gotten out of control:p. it’s gotten to the point where my parents are like you should probably get one of those digital readers. I was the amazon one soooo bad so I’m thinking about ordering one today. The amazon is the best one i think because even though you are only able to get books from amazon i believe they have ALL the books you need so where can you go wrong.

Since I’ve been buying so many books i have had to put some books off for a while. My friend gave me the book City and Bones and I’m so happy to say I’m going to start reading it now:D

Mercy by Rebecca Lim- FINISHED

2011-01-28T20:01:00.000-08:00

I’m so happy that i was able to finish reading this book. I hate the feeling of not finishing a book even if it’s late at night and you have told you friends and boyfriend you are going to be. This was a pretty good book it wasn’t anything special and wasn’t anything like hush hush or the blue bloods series. The book is about this spirit that takes over a human’s body. They way that it is described she mostly helps saves someone’s life in every body. When she is sent to Paradise she meets a family that has lost their daughter almost two years ago her name is Lauren. Referring to herself as mercy she is able to see people’s secrets just by touching them. If their guilt is bad she can sense it. Mercy helps Laurens brother Adam seek the person that is behind the sister disappearance because they both have the aching feeling that she is still alive. It’s very mysterious and i didn’t start to realize who the abductor was until halfway through. It’s not highly recommended but is still pleasant.Mercy

Mercy by Rebecca Lim- FINISHED

2011-01-28T20:00:00.001-08:00

Since exams are done i’m sooooo excited that i have some time to read before second semester starts. I decided to read Mercy by Rebecca Lim. I’m only 75 pages into the book right now. So far it has been an alright book nothing amazing. In the beginning i found that the way that it was written was a little weird but after a couple of chapters you get used to it. I’m not going to talk about it until I’m done and I’m hoping that it will be by tomorrow some time! TTYL

Deadly Little Games

2011-01-28T19:59:00.001-08:00

so i just finished reading the book Deadly Little Games by Laure Stolarz. this is a Touch series novel. this series is about a girl that meets a boy who has just moved to her town but it is rumored that he killed his last girlfriend. you find out this is not true in the first book and you also find out many more things. right now there are only 3 books in the series. there is said to be 5 however. the fourth one is coming out in December. i thought that this book was really good. i was able to read it in less then a day. there are some parts when the lead character Camelia gets a little annoying but the book is full of suspense. it is hard to explain what the story is about since there are 2 other stories before this one. Camelia is expected to help save her boyfriends ex best friend and her own ex love interests life when she starts sculpting weird things. she ends up spending more time needed with him and her boyfriend Ben begins to worry. Ben has the power to predict when someone is in danger and has saved Camelia's life 3 times before in the previous books. without giving to much away about this book i think that it is a definite good read and highly recommend if you have some free time.Deadly Little Games: A Touch Novel
