June Releases

Flirting in Italian: Lauren Henderson
Four girls. One magical, and possibly dangerous Italian summer. Family mysteries, ancient castles, long hot nights of dancing under the stars . . . and, of course, plenty of gorgeous Italian boys!

Rapture (Fallen #4): Luaren Kate
The sky is dark with wings . . . .

Like sand in an hourglass, time is running out for Luce and Daniel. To stop Lucifer from erasing the past they must find the place where the angels fell to earth. Dark forces are after them, and Daniel doesn’t know if he can do this—live only to lose Luce again and again.

Yet together they will face an epic battle that will end with lifeless bodies . . . and angel dust. Great sacrifices are made. Hearts are destroyed. And suddenly Luce knows what must happen.

For she was meant to be with someone other than Daniel. The curse they’ve borne has always and only been about her—and the love she cast aside. The choice she makes now will be the only one that truly matters.

In the fight for Luce, who will win?

The astonishing conclusion to the FALLEN series. Heaven can’t wait any longer.

Shadow and Bone (The Grisha Trilogy #1): Leigh Bardugo
Surrounded by enemies, the once-great nation of Ravka has been torn in two by the Shadow Fold, a swath of near impenetrable darkness crawling with monsters who feast on human flesh. Now its fate may rest on the shoulders of one lonely refugee.

Alina Starkov has never been good at anything. But when her regiment is attacked on the Fold and her best friend is brutally injured, Alina reveals a dormant power that saves his life—a power that could be the key to setting her war-ravaged country free. Wrenched from everything she knows, Alina is whisked away to the royal court to be trained as a member of the Grisha, the magical elite led by the mysterious Darkling.

Yet nothing in this lavish world is what it seems. With darkness looming and an entire kingdom depending on her untamed power, Alina will have to confront the secrets of the Grisha…and the secrets of her heart.

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

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. But with forbidden romances, unexpected spirit bonds, and the threat of Strigoi moving ever closer, hiding the truth is harder than anyone thought.

Populated with new faces as well as familiar ones, Richelle Mead's breathtaking Bloodlines series explores all the friendship, romance, battles, and betrayals that made the #1 New York Times bestselling Vampire Academy series so addictive. In this second book, the drama is hotter, the romances are steamier, and the stakes are even higher.

He begs Freya to keep his presence a secret, even from their own family, but somehow the irascible Freddie is still able to conduct many affairs with the town's young lovelies from his self-imposed exile. Until he falls for the wrong girl.

While Freya tries to keep her brother from exacting revenge on the man she loves, Ingrid has her own problems. Her human boyfriend, Matt Noble, becomes entangled in a complicated investigation, and when the magical creatures at the center of it come to Ingrid for help, she has a difficult choice to make.

To top it off, a dead spirit is trying to make contact with Joanna - but does it mean to harm or warn the witches?

The spells cast by the bestselling Witches of East End continue in this bewitching follow-up that Melissa de la Cruz's many fans won't want to miss.

But Kaleb has never before been able to see time travelers, unlike many of his friends associated with the mysterious Hourglass organization. Are Kaleb's powers expanding, or is something very wrong?

Then the Hourglass is issued an ultimatum. Either they find Jack and the research he's stolen on the time gene, or time will be altered with devastating results.

Now Kaleb, Emerson, Michael, and the other Hourglass recruits have no choice but to use their unusual powers to find Jack. But where do they even start? And when? And even if they succeed, it may not be enough...

Now Elise begins to question everything about her life. Why do these guys both want her so desperately? What are the Shadows? Why does the name Charlotte inspire a terrifying familiarity? And who is Elise, really?

After weeks spent "recovering," she's back in school, fighting to stay visible to the human world, struggling to fit in with her friends and planning time alone with her new reaper boyfriend. But to earn her keep in the human world, Kaylee must reclaim stolen souls, and when her first assignment brings her face-to-face with an old foe, she knows the game has changed. Her immortal status won't keep her safe. And this time Kaylee isn't just gambling with her own life....

Endlessly (Paranormally #3): Kierstan White
Try as she might, Evie can’t seem to escape her not-so-normal past. And what was supposed to be a blissfully normal school break is ruined when a massive group of paranormals shows up at her house, claiming that Evie is the only one who can protect them from a mysterious, perilous fate.

The deadly war between the faerie courts looms ever closer. The clock is ticking on the entire paranormal world. And its future rests solely in Evie’s hands.

So much for normal.

With a perfect blend of humor and suspense, Endlessly is everything readers could dream of in a conclusion—and the unexpected twists will keep them guessing until the very last page.

Happy Belated June!!!

Sorry! I just remembered that I forgot to do the monthly releases feature! Whoops. Well, Happy June everybody! June is my favourite month out of all the other months. Why? First of all, it marks the end of another fantastic year. Second of all, it marks the beginning of summer, which is on June 21st. But what else happens on June 21st? MY BIRTHDAY OF COURSE!!! That's right, I am the supreme summer baby. Just kidding. I will be turning the big 15. YAY! So, Happy June everyone and I hope everyone has a great start to their summer!

Questions

Yeah, I know I haven't been on for along time,but it's the last month of school!!!! Finals, cleaning my locker, getting white hairs from too much studying and all that fun stuff that comes with the ending of a another year. I promise I will do a review soon, but I need to clarify something, first. Okay, so there is this Stats thing on my blog dashboard and there is a section where it shows the keywords that people type in to answer a question or something. So I was thinking if people are typing in questions they want to know, why not leave a question as a comment? I know, I sometimes don't explain the books in details, but if you have a question, just comment. I'm not gonna bite or anything, but seriously I probably can answer every question you have about a book I've read.

So do you have a question about a book? Leave a comment and I will respond in exactly 48 hours:)

City of Bones... THE MOVIE!!!

This is what all of those TMI (The Mortal Instruments) fans have been waiting for... City of Bones, the movie!!! Oh my God, I knew there was going to be a movie, but I haven't thought about it until my friend said it coming out next year. I was freaking out the whole weekend, jumping up and down and screaming to the top of my lungs. And if you know me, that means I'm freaking excited!!! When I got home, I quickly searched the actors. (silence). Even though I'm totally loving the idea of a movie, the actors are not making me that enthusiastic. So far, they only have Jace, Clary and I think, Isabelle. Wait, before we go into detail, I need to tell you guys something. They were supposed to start filming the movie ages ago, except the screen writer took out MAGNUS BANE! I know, big shock for me too. Good thing, many people/fans complained and they made a new script... including Magnus Bane. Whew, thank God.

Anyways, back to the actors. The actor for Clary was actually a good pick. But the one for Jace... ugh. I thought the actor would be Alex Pettyfer or even Lucas Till! But no, it was Jamie Campbell Bower. He does not resemble Jace at ALL. Oh well, we gotta pray it will still turn out to be an awesome movie. Putting Clary and Jace aside, it is rumoured that that Adelaide Kane will play Isabelle Lightwood. I gotta say, she looks perfect for the role. There isn't any say on any of the characters, but I hope Simon Lewis get's played by LOGAN LERMAN!!! I'm not in love with him or anything, but his played the main character in some of my favourite books-turned-movies. He played Percy Jackson *sigh* in, The Lightning Thief, and he played Roy Eberhardt in, Hoot. It doesn't hurt that Logan is cute too:)

Okay, so here are some pics of the actors to play in, City of Bones. And some the actors I think should be the cast!

ACTORS:

Lily Collins, who will play Clary Fray. Lily actually looks like Clary... just imagine her with red hair:)

   Jamie Campbell Bower. He does not resemble Jace. Alex Pettyfer is a better choice. But, you never know, he might be the right choice for Jace. I'm saying this cause when I was googling images, there was a photo of him looking almost like Jace. Don't know if it was edited or something like that, though.

Adelaide Kane, who is rumoured to play Isabelle Lightwood.






















That is all of the Official Cast... for now. Now, let's see who should be the cast, my version. (Though, there might the same characters from above)

Lily Collins as Clary Fray.

Alex Pettyfer as Jace Wayland.

Adelaide Kane as Isabelle Lightwood. Ashley Greene came a close second though.

Skandar Keynes as Alex Lightwood.

Logan Lerman as Simon Lewis.

Review: Taken at Dusk (Shadow Falls #3)

Author: C.C. Hunter


Genre: Romance, Supernatural


Pages: 380


Date of Release: April, 10 2012


Publisher: St. Martin's Griffin


Rating: 6/10


Summary: Kylie Galen wants the truth so badly she can taste it. The truth about who her real family is, the truth about which boy she’s meant to be with—and the truth about what her emerging powers mean. But she’s about to discover that some secrets can change your life forever…and not always for the better.

Just when she and Lucas are finally getting close, she learns that his pack has forbidden them from being together. Was it a mistake to pick him over Derek? And it’s not just romance troubling Kylie. An amnesia-stricken ghost is haunting her, delivering the frightful warning, someone lives and someone dies. As Kylie races to unravel the mystery and protect those she loves, she finally unlocks the truth about her supernatural identity, which is far different—and more astonishing—than she ever imagined. -Goodreads

All I can say is that this book is better then it's prequel, Awake at Dawn.

I'm not going to summarize this book, since all done in the summary.

First off the love triangle has gotten better, but not by much. Kylie is mostly with Lucas now, but she still wants Derek. I mean, can she not make up her mind! The good thing is that readers won't have to read all the love poop in here, because this book has improved by focusing on the many questions in this book. Like, what happened to her grandparents. In the beginning of the book, it explains Kylie seeing her grandparents and feeling so close to them. Then, *poof* they're gone! At don't ask me where they went, because the book doesn't explain it either.

The flow of this book was really choppy. For example, one moment she would be concerned for her fake grandparents and then it's all suddenly, "I have to go to the graveyard!" Doesn't explain much. The love tension between Burnett and Holiday had lessened, until Kylie caught them making out. I do not know why, Holiday keeps resisting Burnett so much! It's not going to kill her to take a risk.

One thing I liked about this book was the amnesic ghost. She led Kylie through a maze of figuring out her past and the end *spoiler* ended up being Kylie's grandmother. The ghost had a amazing story about how she died and why she left her family and son. That was the only part that made me sit up in my seat waiting to figure out Kylie's grandmother's story. Also, her story brought an insight to the next book in the series, Whispers at Moonrise.

Going back to the love problem, another thing has popped up. Apparently, Lucas's grandmother does not want Kylie to be dating Lucas. Why, you ask? Because Lucas has gome from generations of full-blood werewolves and having Kylie there will mess it all up. What more drama can add to this, my brain will explode. There are too many reasons why she shouldn't be with either Derek or Lucas, so why can't Kylie figure this out!

Finally, Kylie has kind of figured what she is... a supernatural goddess. Okay, I just made that term up because I don't even know what to call her. Kylie is like part werewolf, vampire, shapeshifter, fairy, healer and everything in between. Hope that clarifies in the next book.

One more question... will Socks ever turn back into a kitten??? I don't think he looks as cute as a skunk:( If you want to more about this series, read my review on the second book in the Shadow Falls Series here    


     Mrs. Parker glanced at Kylie. "My grandson is quite smitten with
 you."
     Smitten? Kylie didn't know people still used that word. But since
 the woman was well over a hundred, Kylie supposed it fit her vo-
cabulary.
     "Uh, I . . . like Lucas, too."
