Four Books I Recently Got in the Mail That Caused Me to Scream

Image
Over the course of my life, books have always been a central part. This could be due to my mom being an advocate for reading or due to the several packages of books that come to my house at random times of the week. Every time a package appears on my doorstep, I squeal. My family says I outright scream bloody murder, but I think I just squeal loudly every time I see a shiny new book come into my hungry arms. Due to my past, I have followed my mom's footsteps and have been stacking my shelves with tons of books. Thanks to Tynga at Tynga's Reviews  who hosts Stacking the Shelves, all the bookworms, that turn into bookdragons later in life, have the ability to share their recent book mail. Today, as it is Saturday, I am sharing the four books I have gotten within the past month, which hopefully will make Four wish that he had some Dauntless cake. Let's get into destroying some perfectly good packaging! 1. The War Outside by Monica Hesse I am working with the people...

Book Review: City of Bones by Cassandra Clare | My Baby Has Sprout Wings Once Again

Image

It's also her first encounter with Jace, a Shadowhunter who looks a little like an angel and acts a lot like a jerk. Within twenty-four hours Clary is pulled into Jace's world with a vengeance, when her mother disappears and Clary herself is attacked by a demon. But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know.....

A Poem of Gratitude for Books: Ten Reasons Why I Always Return

Image
Dear books whose spines have cracked from countless pages turned, for the novels whose covers were folded and worn, for the scenes captivating enough to be performed, and for the stories and endings I will faithfully mourn. Nothing is better said than the ten reasons why I faithfully return to the stories with tens of thousands of words. Firstly, a long-awaited escape from my world to others is mine to yearn. But, this is second to the witty banter and tension between lustful characters and ruling lords.   Thirdly, the diversity in characters, personalities, and conflicts inspire me daily To be courageous, authentic, and honorably sarcastic in every way. Fourth, magnificently designed book covers and sprayed edges are great to display, But the familiar smell of libraries and well-read books are still triumphant without further say. Moreover, an author's recipes for controlled disasters may coax me to resist slumbers. Perfect deliveries of slow-burn romances and cliffhangers fuel be...
