March Wrap-up!!

So this has been a pretty crappy month for me...My bird died, my cat died and my other cat got sick (she's doing better now)...and the books...meh. I only finished two books this month and started another one...

A Clash of Kings by George R. R. Martin:  So, I started this book in February, but I finished it in the second week of March..I think? This book too me forever to read, not because it is a hefty book, but because there wasn't as much action in it as there was in A Game of Thrones. But it was still really good. I think I gave it 3.5 or 4 stars? I am hoping the next book it better. I want more action!! \>w</

Allegiant by Veronica Roth:  Then I started this book....I didn't really know what to expect from this book. A lot of people hated it because of the ending and a lot of people enjoyed it. Now..I didn't really mind the ending...it was the rest of the book that sucked. NOTHING FRIGGEN HAPPENED!!!!!!!! I was so bloody bored, that by the time the book was done and shiz was going down, I didn't really care....I was just glad it was done....-_____- That's no bueno. I think I gave it 3 stars...but I think I might change it to 2...

I am only 3 chapters into this book, Beyonders: A World Without Heroes by Brandon Mull and I'm not really sure how I am feeling about it so far...it's....a very odd book so far. Very. Odd. And very describe-y. Not a huge fan of that...but it's just getting started, so I'm going to give it a chance still.

Well, That's all...a very short wrap-up. My TBR is coming up very soon and a book haul. Also, a very special (to me, at least) VHS haul! All of them are in Korean!~ WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!! And no. I don't speak Korean. XD

Bye my loveys!~ <3 Chuu!~

A Clash of Kings! Review!! FINALLY!!!!

*4/5 Stars*

 

I FINISHED THIS!!! I feel so accomplished!! >w<  Because this is a difficult book to explain and the second book in a series, I'm not going to put the synopsis up and I'm going to keep this spoiler free. Just my thoughts!~

I must say, this book was only going to get 3 stars...but it did pick up a bit at the end. This book has 969 pages (without all the added stuff, which makes it 1,009) and I think the last...300 were good? I thought it was a lot of talking and not really any moving. The battle scenes were a bit of a jumble, but I suppose if you were actually involved in these battles, it would probably feel the way it was written. New characters were highlighted, such as Davos and Theon Greyjoy, and we got to meet both Stannis and Renly Baratheon, and new places needed to be described, so that got to be a bit...annoying. But necessary...I suppose.

Once things picked up....holy shit balls Batman! So much magic!! Dark magic, mostly and it made my head explode a bit. But I really liked it. I really love magic in fantasy novels, especially if it is dark and a bit unexpected. It was definitely unexpected. I really enjoyed Arya and Bran's chapters. Daenerys, Jon and Tyrion are my other favorites, but Jon's chapters were a bit meh Dany's were too few and Tyrion's were too many, so that's a bit of a bummer.

All in all, it was a pretty good book. It could have been better, but I think it was a good addition to the series. ^^ Also, I really love when books (and movies) mention the name of the book/series in the book. They mentioned 'a song of ice and fire' and I laughed. XD

Anyways, I am taking a bit of a break from this series. A Storm of Swords is bigger than this one, and my hands are screaming right now...so I'll wait. ^^'''

This is book 5/10 for my fantasy book challenge!! I'm half way there!!!
I have also read 7/25 books for my bookish challenge!~ Weeeeee!! I has feel accomplished!! XD

Until next time!!

Momesy!~

February Wrap up and Friday Reads (2/28/14)

This month has been hit and miss when it comes to reading. I read 3 (and got halfway through #4) books this month and 2 of them were not very good....*Sigh* What a downer....Ah well...Let's get into it.

City of Bones by Cassandra Clare: This is the first book I read this month,  and as much as I wanted to like it, is as much as I hated it....I have never face-palmed so many times while reading a book in my entire life...I was so fed up with it, I skimmed the ending. I will not be purchasing the next book....and personally I don't know if I even want to check it out at the library....Such a failure...-____-

Daughter of Oreveille by Tricia Ballad: I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway and I was excited to read it....but then I started reading it and I was sooooooooooooo frustrated with it that I couldn't even finish it. There was no plot, I didn't care about the characters and I just had no idea what was doin'...Bah! (I DNF'd it)

Crown of Midnight by Sarah J Maas: FINALLY!!! A GOOD FRIGGEN BOOK!!!! I have been fan-raging about this book (it's a step up from fan-girling XD) since I finished it. I need Heir of Fire ASAP!!! *dies*

A Clash of Kings by George R. R. Martin: I am still reading this book....GAH! I am about 53% done, so that's cool..but I have a ways to go still. It is starting to get good (I might have said that last time..?) so hopefully I can get through the rest of it quickly. I already have 3 books picked out for March, and I want to get to those ASAP!

Well that's all for now!~ I'll see ya'll in a few for my March TBR!
Peace out chickadees!
