Five(...um, Three) Favorites #3

so...
I've not been blogging regularly, bad of me I know. Anyway here are my weekly faves...

#1 These shoes 

terrible photo I know

The best part about the shoes is that they're very inexpressive. Paperback novels cost more!

#2 Unwind

An amazingly disturbing short film by MainStay production based on an equally disturbing novel by 

Neal Shusterman. Or so I've heard. I'm not actually sure nor am I willing to find out for myself.
Anyway even though I do not want to read the book doesn't mean I don't appreciate the awesomeness of MainStay Pro.

#3 Crave by Melissa Darnell

 I'm not into witches and I'm really fed up with vampires so I wasn't looking forward to this book, this is one of the books that I have absolutely no interest in reading but loved every page of it. I can't wait for the next book!

Till next time!

To read list

1. Fifty Shades of Grey by EL James 

I was a fan of Twilight and for a time I lived and breathed Twilight fan fiction. BTW I've already read this book but skipped all the scenes that actually counts because I wanted the story. I didn't like it but I'm giving this book another chance, this time I wont skip anything.

2. Above by Leah Bobet

Its all about the cover. 

I actually have no idea what the story is about but based on the description from amazon.com its pretty promising. 

3. Covet by JR ward

I'm a huge Black Dagger Brotherhood fan and I never miss a book or a facebook update from JR Ward but for the life of me I have never read Ms. Ward's Fallen Angel series. 

I'm looking forward to reading this book. 

4. Linger  by Maggie Stiefvater

The send book of  Maggie Stiefvater's Wolf of Mercy Falls series. I liked the first book Shiver  a while back and its only now that I actually got a hold of Linger. I'm a little bit reluctant to reading this book since I think that Linger is pretty good as a stand alone novel and I'm not really interested in warewolves. I do like the characters though.

5. Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick

Someone recommended this to me. This is another one of those books that I have no idea what the story is about other than there are fallen angels in it. It does have a lot of good reviews from Amazon and Goodreads  so I think I'll like it.

So that's it for my five to read list. I don't know when I'll be able to finish reading all of this or even if I'll stick to this list but they're the only books I haven't read yet in my bookshelf and don't have the money to buy new ones.

Till next time!

Five Favorites #2

Happy Easter everyone! (Can I still say that even though its already Wednesday?)
Now theses are the things I like this week.

• Easter Angels

On Easter exactly 4:30 am, the local church held a pageant of  sorts featuring little boys and girls dressed as angels. Its actually a fund raiser where the parents of the little angels raise money for the church and the amount raised by the parent determines the ranking of the angels. Let it be known that I vehemently opposed to this but because of my aunt my sister got rope into the Easter angel fundraiser and is now utterly broke.

What I did like about it is that for the very first time I get to see my niece looking like an angel and behaving like one too instead of the human wrecking ball she normally is. 

apparently my sister cant take a decent photo.

• Wrath of the Titans

I know a lot of people bashed Clash of The Titans and Wrath of the Titans but I still like them. 

My cousin and I went to see Wrath because we get tired of watching Hunger Games over and over. We wanted to see Wrath in 3D but we run out money. Its still pretty good even without the 3D and of course Sam Worthington is HOT

• Tetris

I used to Play Tetris on my cousins gameboy when I was a kid. I was obsessed with it! To my delight there's a website that lets you play tetris for free! Heres the link Free Tetris I swear I put more hours in it than Mass Effect 3! 

• Geek and Sundry

Geek and Sundry Felicia Day's new youtube channel that has everything that geeks or those pretending to be geeks could ever want. As for me, I just adore Felicia Day

• Immortal City

Immortal City is movie and music video director Scott Speer's debut novel, where Guardian Angels save for pay and treated like Celebrities. Its a new take on the mythology and I absolutely love it. My only problem with it is that its for Young Adult so the naughtiness is kept to a minimum :(

And it has a very cool book trailer.

So that's it for my weekly likes.

Till next time!    

Book Rant!

When someone from the fb group Young Adult Reads - Discussion Group  suggested I read Switched by Amanda Hocking because its apparently really good, I did. Its about a girl who fond out that she is a changeling and the boy Finn has to take her home to her real family.

I'm a sucker for fantasy and new takes on fantasy so when the word "changeling" came up I immediately thought of elves, trolls and other mythical creatures, an epic battle between good and evil, and a journey to a magical world world...Yeah I got none of that.

Instead I an antsy teenage girl with an attitude problem who falls for a brooding mysterious guy who does nothing bit glares at her (twilight anyone?). Lest I forget there is also a pissing contest between the monarch who rules a small village and her subordinates and to top it all off there is no mystical land full of magical creatures.

Needless to say I was very disappointed.

I guess the only thing i like about this book is that it came from the library and I didn't have to buy it.

Till next time
