I'm HERE, YOU'RE HERE, LET'S TALK BOOKS!!

I'm feeling a complete and TOTAL WITHDRAWAL!!!!! You ask why? I'll tell you why. Because I just finished the book "Hush, Hush" by Becca Fitzpatrick. (THERE ARE SPOILERS IN THIS BLOG!!!)I can't believe that i waited so long to read that book. I am so tempted to re-read it again tonight. I am seriously considering it. It's completely and utterly amazing, there is no reason that anyone wouldn't read it, unless they're allergic to amazing. I can not get over the fact that Patch is so amazing and sexy (I can't think of any other synonyms for amazing). His sarcastic remarks complete the most perfect personality. AND the fact that he falls in love with her is just...okay I really can't think of any words so let me describe how I felt when reading: HAHAHAH OHMYGOSH...hehehe ahhhh ahaha ohmygosh so cute!!!!.....yes. that was me, by myself in my room, laughing at 2:30 AM reading this book. I could not believe how much I could fall in love with a character AGAIN, after being totally in love with Jace, Edward, Damon, Stefan, and a bunch of others (I thought my heart couldn't handle any more love!!!). I bookmark quotes that I love in books with little arrow stickers, and I had so many in this book, and some of them were because the scene was way too good to forget!!!!! I've been thinking about the book all day since I finished it, and it was so good that I keep getting butterflies when i think about it.
I'm listening to "Heaven Can Wait" by We the Kings, and it's making me feel like I should probably go re-read "Hush, Hush". Don't ask why. I have no clue. But the song makes me remember the book lol
Here's a synopsis from BarnesandNoble.com:

For Nora Grey, romance was not part of the plan. She's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how much her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch came along.
With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Nora is drawn to him against her better judgment.
But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure who to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is, and to know more about her than her closest friends. She can't decide whether she should fall into his arms or run and hide. And when she tries to seek some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel.
For Nora is right in the middle of an ancient battle between the immortal and those that have fallen - and, when it comes to choosing sides, the wrong choice will cost her life.

5/5 stars doesn't even cut it. This book gets 11/5 stars!!!!It's too much of an amazing book, not to spread the love. So all of you out there who have read the book pass on the word. Tell all your friends to read it, and your boyfriends, and whoever you see at the grocery store. I'm completely serious. lol

Swoon by Nina Malkin


Hello fellow readers!!!
I am completely aware that I brag about every single book I blog about. I'm fickle, so what? right? I just simply love almost every book I read. 
Anyway, the past few days I have been reading Swoon by Nina Malkin and I am completely blown away. I was expecting a lot when I first started reading the book because it was suggested to me with such high honors, yet I am always skeptical when picking up a book (though they always turn out well, go figure ). I was shocked when I found out how amazing the book was. A little different than the other books I've read, in that it was more mature. I warn you it's inappropriate for younger teens and children. Yet that doesn't take away it's wow factors. The dialogue, and Sin himself, was enough to keep me reading---if the plot didn't do the trick. I highly recommend reading this book. It has many reviews if you'd like to check them out. Here is also an excerpt from BarnesandNoble.com: 

Torn from her native New York City and dumped in the land of cookie-cutter preps, Candice is resigned to accept her posh, dull fate. Nothing even happens in Swoon, Connecticut...until Dice's perfect, privileged cousin Penelope nearly dies in a fall from an old tree and her spirit interwines with that of a ghost. His name? Sinclair Youngblood Powers. His mission? Revenge and while Pen is obvious to the possession, Dice is all too aware of Sin. She's intesely drawn to him—but not at all crazy abolut the havoc he's wreaking.
Determined to exorcise the demon, Dice accidentally sets Sin loose, gives him flesh, makes him formidable. Now she must destroy an even more potent—and irresistible—adversary before the whole town succumbs to Sin's will. Only trouble is, she's in love with him.
What do you do when the boy of your dreams is too bad to be true?

 I definitely would give Swoon 5/5 stars!!! I really liked the way the book took place in two time periods, it was such an interesting style to me. The ending, although left me hanging with SOOOOO many questions, only has me wanting so much more.  With an ending like this one, you won't be able to stop yourself from guessing what happens next.
Anyway, I highly recommend this book, it's amazing!

About Me

My photo
I am the Book Genie!! I love reading with all of my heart, (I'm a little dramatic sometimes) and it's an obsession I have to live with. New titles on the teen novel shelves makes my heart beat faster. I've read many books, and I've developed a love for all different types of them. I love making websites and animations, but most of all I love making movies. I want to pursue a career in the movie making industry later on in life. I would also love to start writing novels and screenplays. My family is the most important part about me, because they have taught me everything I know. My pets are also important to me, as are all the animals we feed and save.
