Hex Hall

Title: Hex Hall (Hex Hall, #1)
Author: Rachel Hawkins
Ratings: 5/5 Stars

Synopsis:
Three years ago, Sophie Mercer discovered that she was a witch. It's gotten her into a few scrapes. Her non-gifted mother has been as supportive as possible, consulting Sophie's estranged father--an elusive European warlock--only when necessary. But when Sophie attracts too much human attention for a prom-night spell gone horribly wrong, it's her dad who decides her punishment: exile to Hex Hall, an isolated reform school for wayward Prodigium, a.k.a. witches, faeries, and shapeshifters.
By the end of her first day among fellow freak-teens, Sophie has quite a scorecard: three powerful enemies who look like supermodels, a futile crush on a gorgeous warlock, a creepy tagalong ghost, and a new roommate who happens to be the most hated person and only vampire student on campus. Worse, Sophie soon learns that a mysterious predator has been attacking students, and her only friend is the number-one suspect.
As a series of blood-curdling mysteries starts to converge, Sophie prepares for the biggest threat of all: an ancient secret society determined to destroy all Prodigium, especially her.

My Thoughts:
This book is the the first book in the Hex Hall series by Rachel Hawkins. It starts off with a girl named Sophie who gets in trouble for casting a love spell that goes horribly wrong and gets her sent to a school called Hex Hall for kids who get in trouble for using there magic publicly. From there on, she finds herself having a few enemies and has to figure out a way to help her friend of a crime she's accused of and to learn about who she truly is.

This was the best witch book I have ever read! Besides Harry Potter of course. LOL This book had one adventure after another and kept me wanting more. Page after page something different had occurred, which always kept me in suspense. I loved the characters. Sophie was amazing, I really liked her character. Archer?! What the frickin' heck!!!! I really like him, even though so and so happened. (not going to spoil it). And the ending, with Alice....Whoa! And the ending with Sophie on the last page....Whoa!

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. It was fun and definitely a page turner! Recommend to everyone. Can't wait to read Demonglass..

Musing Monday (11/28)

 Musing Monday is Hosted by: Should Be Reading

Will you be buying books for the holidays this year? If so, to whom and why?



 
 -I think I might be buy books for the holidays. My niece is really starting to get into reading books. She turned 11 and has been reading The Diary of A Wimpy Kid series. She really like those books. She wants to read the Percy Jackson series, which is funny to me because I've read all the books in that series and I'm 21.

Also my friend has gotten into reading and has asked me do I know any great books to read...Well of course I do! So I just might Surprise her for the holidays.

Books Most People Have Read but i Still Have Not!

Okay this is a list of books that most people I know have already read or have been read that i have not....
I know, I suck!
But I'm slowly making my way to them.....



 

Shatter Me

Title: Shatter Me
Author: Tahereh Mafi
Ratings: 4/5 Stars

Synopsis:
 Juliette hasn't touched anyone in exactly 264 days.
 
The last time she did, it was an accident, but The Reestablishment locked her up for murder. No one knows why Juliette's touch is fatal. As long as she doesn't hurt anyone else, no one really cares. The world is too busy crumbling to pieces to pay attention to a 17-year-old girl. Diseases are destroying the population, food is hard to find, birds don't fly anymore, and the clouds are the wrong color.

The Reestablishment said their way was the only way to fix things, so they threw Juliette in a cell. Now so many people are dead that the survivors are whispering war-- and The Reestablishment has changed its mind. Maybe Juliette is more than a tortured soul stuffed into a poisonous body. Maybe she's exactly what they need right now. 

Juliette has to make a choice: Be a weapon. Or be a warrior

My Thoughts:
This book was about a girl named Juliette who has been institutionalized for a gift she has, the ability to kill a person with a touch of her hand. She meets a guy named Adam and together they try to survive together from the Warner and his troops.

This book was great. I really enjoyed it. In the beginning, the book started off a tad bit slow for me, but not in a way where it was boring, just slow with no action. But that's about the only thing that i didn't about the book. Now on with the good. This book was written so well. I found it interesting the back story of Juliette's past, the negligence of her parents who did not want her and of the world itself, who saw her as a freak who is dangerous to everyone. Adam's past was difficult as well. You get some insight to who they where before and why they act the way they do in the present.

The romance of this book was one of my favorite things about the book. The way Juliette and Adam connect with each other and the bond and love that they share, is truly amazing. Not much combat/action in this book but when it happened it was written out well, another thing i loved with this book. The end was my favorite, when they met the organization Omega Point. You guys will have to read the book to know what I'm talking about.

But overall I loved this book! I recommend it to everyone. It's a fun and quick read. You really get drawn into the story with the character!

Willow

Title: Willow
Author: Julia Hoban
Ratings: 4/5 Stars

Synopsis:
Seven months ago, on a rainy March night, sixteen year- old Willow's parents died in a horrible car accident. Willow was driving. Now her older brother barely speaks to her, her new classmates know her as the killer orphan girl, and Willow is blocking the pain by secretly cutting herself. But when one boy - one sensitive, soulful boy - discovers Willow's secret, it sparks an intense relationship that turns the "safe" world Willow has created for herself upside down.

Told in an extraordinary fresh voice, Willow is an unforgettable novel about one girl's struggle to cope with tragedy, and one boy's refusal to give up on her.

My Thoughts:
This book was about a girl name Willow who is dealing with the death of her parents and is living with her brother and his wife. Willow becomes a cutter. Not being able to deal with the emotions of her parents death.

I liked this book. I loved the way it was written. So much emotions from a young girl who has to deal with the death of her parents and on top of that dealing with issue of her staying in a new environment with her older brother, who barely speaks to her anymore. With all the bad in the book, I liked Willow and Guy's relationship. It was a breath of fresh air to see these happy moments with all the bad issues that Willow was going through.


This but was overall good. It was an opener to see the things that some people experience. Great emotion, happiness, romance. I recommend it to everyone. It was a quick read for me.

Thirteen Reasons Why

Title: Thirteen Reasons Why
Author: Jay Asher
Ratings: 5/5 Stars

Synopsis:
Clay Jensen returns home from school to find a mysterious box with his name on it lying on his porch. Inside he discovers thirteen cassette tapes recorded by Hannah Baker, his classmate and crush who committed suicide two weeks earlier. 
On tape, Hannah explains that there are thirteen reasons why she decided to end her life. Clay is one of them. If he listens, he'll find out how he made the list.
Through Hannah and Clay's dual narratives, debut author Jay Asher weaves an intricate and heartrending story of confusion and desperation that will deeply affect teen readers.


My Thoughts:
This book was about a girl name Hannah who made thirteen tapes for thirteen people that she feel play a part in her decision to commit suicide. The tapes are past along from person to person until the thirteenth person receives the tapes. This book is told from Clay's point a view, one of the people on the tapes.

This book book was truly amazing but also very sad. The things that Hannah went through to lead to her decision was awful. What came to my mind when I was reading this book was that, you never know what a person may be going through, so you need to be careful the things you say to people and how you treat them. This book made me shed a couple of tears. Especially for Clay who didn't have anything to do with her death but he had a really big crush on her but never got the chance to tell her how he felt.

This book had so many emotions running through it, I didn't know what to do with myself. But this book was written so amazingly that it blew my mind. I recommend this book to everyone, maybe 16 years and older.

Loved it!

Invasion


Title: Invasion
Author: Jon S. Lewis
Ratings: 4/5 Stars

Synopsis:

He didn't ask for the job, but now all that stands between us and chaos... is Colt

Colt McAlister was having the summer of his life. He spent his days surfing and his nights playing guitar on the beach with friends. He even met a girl and got his first car. But everything changes when his parents are killed in a freak accident.

He's forced to leave his old life behind and move to Arizona with his grandfather. The only person he knows at the new high school is a childhood friend named Dani. And Oz, a guy he's sure he's never met but who is strangely familiar.

But what if his parents' death wasn't an accident? His mother, an investigative reporter, was going to expose a secret mind-control program run by one of the world's largest companies. Before she could release the story, what if agents from Trident Biotech made sure she couldn't go public?

Vowing to uncover the truth, Colt gets drawn into a secret world of aliens, shapeshifters, flying motorcycles, and invisible gateways.

The Invasion has begun.

My Thoughts:
I got the chance to read this book, Invasion by Jon S. Lewis for free at BookSneeze.com. This book was about a boy named Colt who is set in an adventure with an Company named Trident industries, who has aliens as the board of directors which are trying to take over earth using bio chips that control the human mind. An organization known as Chaos is there to help and colt and his friends are trying to stop and alien invasion that are coming to destroy life on earth and make it there home planet.

This book was a very fun read, adventure after adventure. The characters were great. Each character had different elements that I liked. Colt was the who dealt with the loss of his parents and is trying to bring justice to the people who did it. Danielle is the smart friend, who was essential to figuring things out. Oz was the fun friend who's energetic with a sense of humor and sort of nerdy. I've never read about about aliens in this form. It was different and I liked that Lewis explained background and history of each alien or organization in a way to where people will understand what is going on in the story. The hints of romance between Colt and Lily and Oz and Danielle was nice and sweet. I wish there was more development in that area though.

But overall I thought the book was fun and I enjoyed it the story a lot.

And she believes there may be others in her small town with surprising talents.

Plague

Title: Plague (Gone, #4)
Author: Michael Grant
Ratings: 5/5 Stars

Synopsis:
It's been eight months since all the adults disappeared. GONE.

They've survived hunger. They've survived lies. But the stakes keep rising, and the dystopian horror keeps building. Yet despite the simmering unrest left behind by so many battles, power struggles, and angry divides, there is a momentary calm in Perdido Beach.

But enemies in the FAYZ don't just fade away, and in the quiet, deadly things are stirring, mutating, and finding their way free. The Darkness has found its way into the mind of its Nemesis at last and is controlling it through a haze of delirium and confusion. A highly contagious, fatal illness spreads at an alarming rate. Sinister, predatory insects terrorize Perdido Beach. And Sam, Astrid, Diana, and Caine are plagued by a growing doubt that they'll escape - or even survive - life in the FAYZ. With so much turmoil surrounding them, what desperate choices will they make when it comes to saving themselves and those they love?

Plague, Michale Grant's fourth book in the bestselling Gone series, will satisfy dystopian fans of all ages.

My Thoughts:
Michael Grant your books just keep getting better and better! This book is about basically what the book is called, Plague! Plagues come to the FAYZ and the kids have to find a way for them to survive.
This book was awesome! You would think Grant couldn't top the last book, but know, he's done it again.
Let me start off saying that this book wasn't from the usual characters as much. A lot of the other characters got major play in this book. Sam had his parts, which i loved, but wish there was more of. I started not to like a couple characters in this book, Not going to name names but yeah. The action in this book, always amazing. Astrid was okay, she didn't have any major parts in this installment, not until the end. 
The end, which confused the crap outta me! Like really, i'm confused! Hope there is more explanation in the next book about that ending. 
Can't wait for Fear to be released! I highly recommend you guys check out this series..It's awesome!

The Pledge

The Pledge (The Pledge, #1)The Pledge by Kimberly Derting

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Synopsis
In the violent country of Ludania, the classes are strictly divided by the language they speak. The smallest transgression, like looking a member of a higher class in the eye while they are speaking their native tongue, results in immediate execution. Seventeen-year-old Charlaina has always been able to understand the languages of all classes, and she's spent her life trying to hide her secret. The only place she can really be free is the drug-fueled underground clubs where people go to shake off the oppressive rules of the world they live in. It's there that she meets a beautiful and mysterious boy named Max who speaks a language she's never heard before . . . and her secret is almost exposed.
Charlie is intensely attracted to Max, even though she can't be sure where his real loyalties lie. As the emergency drills give way to real crisis and the violence escalates, it becomes clear that Charlie is the key to something much bigger: her country's only chance for freedom from the terrible power of a deadly regime.


My thoughts
This book was good! It was about a country where the  different classes spoke a different language. No one was aloud to speak that class' language, but Charlie could understand all the languages. And that basically how the book begins, with Charlie struggle to keep her secret or face death by the queen.
I loved this book! It was such a quick read, i think i finished this book in a day.. I couldn't put it down. The character were great. Each and everyone of them. Charlie, of course, was tough. She didn't put up with a lot of things that most of the people did. But then we also saw those softer sides of her. Max! Loved him! Made my day when i was reading about his character. He's caring, funny, strong, and tough minded, which i like. Max and Charlie's relationship got a bit annoying at times. Sometimes it seen Charlie would try to play hard to get, which i didn't really like. But other than that i really like their relationship.
Overall, great book!

Synopsis

The second thrilling installment in Richelle Mead’s Vampire Academy spinoff series.

Tough, brainy alchemist Sydney Sage and doe-eyed Moroi princess Jill Dragomir are in hiding at a human boarding school in the sunny, glamorous world of Palm Springs, California. The students—children of the wealthy and powerful—carry on with their lives in blissful ignorance, while Sydney, Jill, Eddie and Adrian must do everything in their power to keep their secret safe.

Release Date: February 1, 2012

Synopsis:

The world has fallen in love with Nick Gautier and the Dark-Hunters. Now Nick’s saga continues in the next eagerly anticipated volume...

Go to school. Get good grades. Stay out of trouble. That’s the mandate for most kids. But Nick Gautier isn’t the average teenager. He’s a boy with a destiny not even he fully understands. And his first mandate is to stay alive while everyone, even his own father, tries to kill him.

He’s learned to annihilate zombies and raise the dead, divination and clairvoyance, so why is learning to drive such a difficulty? But that isn’t the primary skill he has to master. Survival is.

And in order to survive, his next lesson makes all the others pale in comparison. He is on the brink of becoming either the greatest hero mankind has ever known.

Or he’ll be the one who ends the world. With enemies new and old gathering forces, he will have to call on every part of himself to fight or he’ll lose everyone he cares about.

Even himself.



 Until next time!
