Third Post

I finished Linger, and then I read Forever, the last book of the series. I loved them. I love the characters and the plot and the drama. I cried at the end. The main characters are so sweet. They spend the first half of Forever apart from each other and its so funny to read Sam's thoughts about how much he misses Grace and how he worries about her and then switch to Grace's thoughts about how much she misses Sam and how hard she tries to get back to him. Adorable. But now I've finished that series and trying to start a new one. I checked out Uglies from the library. I've heard so many good things about it so I decided to read it. I can't really say anything about it yet because I have no idea what its about. I'll write more about it next week.

My Second Post

I finished Seraphina the day after I got it. It was really good and I just couldn't put it down. It was really well written and creative and I definitely recommend it to people who like fantasy. I don't want to give away too much of the plot so I won't say that much more about the book. Not that I really think anyone's reading this, but I don't know, maybe someone will google Seraphina because they want to learn more about it and stumble upon my blog accidentally and see my spoiler and I could totally ruin it for that person. So yeah. Anyway, now I'm reading Linger by Maggie Steifvater. It's the sequel to Shiver. It's really good. It's about werewolves. Don't worry, random googler who happened upon this blog, I'm not giving anything away. You find out about the wolves in practically the first chapter. I know that nowadays, when people mention werewolves, people instantly think of Twilight. Relax, it's nothing like Twilight. It's actually well-written, with a good plot, likable characters and no vampires. It's a love story. Anyway, the first book was great and now I'm almost halfway through the second, and loving it. The one thing I have a problem with is that the point of view will change between the main characters. In the first book, it was easier to keep track of because there were only two narrators, the main girl character, Grace, and the main werewolf, Sam. In Linger, it gets more complicated because the perspective switches between four people: Grace, Sam, Isabel and Cole. Isabel was in Shiver, but not one of the main characters like she is in this book. Cole is a new character so it was confusing at first but I'm starting to like him. I guess it's not that confusing, more like frustrating since I will get really excited about one story and then it will suddenly switch. I'm getting the hang of it though. I really recommend the series.

My first post!

I started reading this book called Seraphina by Rachel Hartman. So far, I really like it but I'm only on the 43rd page out of 451. As far as I can tell, it's about a girl named Seraphina who is a very talented musician with a very big secret. The book is set in a made up world with kings and queens and dragons. The dragons have a peace treaty with the humans but they don't trust each other. The dragons can take on human form, but they aren't anything like humans. They don't show emotion and so far, there was only one time where a dragon felt any emotion at all. The humans' feelings towards the dragons range from terrified to just plain hatred. At this point in the book, both sides are especially on edge because a human prince was killed and his head is missing. Apparently, dragons like to eat heads. It's all very interesting and intense and I can't wait to read more.
