This is the great thing about a book blog one you can share your love of books two you can rant about a book and the people who read that certain rant understand it so with that i think you saw this coming i shall rant a bit about this book now this book was awesometastic(i know that is not a word)but the end was just so frustrating SPOILER ALERT i was so angry that after all calla has done for shay he still left her there i know from the little conversation she over heard that he will be back but to leave her there then the second side of it who exactly is shay and are his ``powers`` and who really are the searchers to be honest when they found out that the keepers were not to be trusted i thought they would go to the searchers for help but they didn't so im pretty sure there nice i just wish shay would have explained to the searchers how much calla did i would bet that the searchers would have let her stay END OF SPOILER

so now onto the review nightshade was a great book and was really easy to get pulled into and hard to stop reading and daydreaming about in this book romance action and life were perfectly balanced even though this series was about werewolves personally i thought that with all the other plots going on that if they took out the werewolves and replaced them with something else the story would be as good it really was a great read very well written and good for lots of various group of ages so a 13 year old would love it but so would someone a lot older too so here is my final word on this book and a little tip if you start this book make sure you have a lot of time to read because it is hard to put down and i would recommend you to. read despite all the great things about this book (sorry i said my last word guess i have more to say )it does not make my top 10 because at some points it was a little slow so for my final final note read it i really think paranormal lovers and or romance lovers and or mystery book lovers will devour this book if your all three of those kind of book lovers well good look

p.s this is the flower called nightshade isn`t it beauiful

sea change by aimee friedman

 Sea Change by Aimee Friedman

 official resume :Sixteen-year-old Miranda Merchant is great at science--and not so great with boys. After a major drama with her boyfriend and (now ex) best friend, she is happy to spend the summer on small, mysterious Selkie Island, helping her mother sort out her late grandmother's estate. Then, Miranda finds new friends and an island with a mysterious, mystical history, presenting her with facts that her logical, scientific mind can't make sense of. She also meets Leo, who challenges everything she thought she knew about boys, friendship...and reality. Is Leo hiding something? Or is he something she could've never imagined? Then, Miranda finds new friends and an island with a mysterious, mystical history, presenting her with facts that her logical, scientific mind can't make sense of. She also meets Leo, who challenges everything she thought she knew about boys, friendship...and reality. Is Leo hiding something? Or is he something she could've never imagined?

my resume:

 miranda is a very rational so when she is sent to selkie island  and stuff start to get weird she has to  make sens of every thing going on (but the story is much more complex than that)

 _________________________________

Sea change was a griping book filled with romance i loved how the town had it`s mysteries but it wasn`t ones that make you say come on get to the point the secrets add to the plot and though you do want to know what this secret is you can still read on calmly whitout it bugging you there was all the elements of a fantasy present for a ya novel most probably derected to girls hot guys,mysterie magic both unreal an real(as in the magic of love....i know kinda cheesy but still it`s true)and rivals once i finished this book the first thing that popped in my mind was no there has to be a sequel so you know by that that it was a teriific book another fact that i found really interesting was that the island was seperated in two parts not only in the mental sense as in there was a invisible line but in the physical sense too there were different categories kind of like royalty and peasants .

I really liked how the author made us discover the character and how she made the character understand herself so she found out who she really was and her beliefs in life at the same time we did it makes it better to follow the story and really makes you feel for the characters

to conclude a good book 4-stars on 5 a must read and if your a fan of romance ,the paranormal,and life in general you will devour this book

iron daughter by julie kagawa

Iron Daughter by Julie Kagawa

official resume:Half Summer faery princess, half human, Meghan has never fit in anywhere. Deserted by the Winter prince she thought loved her, she is prisoner to the Winter faery queen. As war looms between Summer and Winter, Meghan knows that the real danger comes from the Iron fey—ironbound faeries that only she and her absent prince have seen. But no one believes her.Worse, Meghan's own fey powers have been cut off. She's stuck in Faery with only her wits for help. Trusting anyone would be foolish. Trusting a seeming traitor could be deadly. But even as she grows a backbone of iron, Meghan can't help but hear the whispers of longing in her all-too-human heart.

 my resume : megan is living a pretty normal life except for the fact that her dad died and she now has a step dad but when a mysterious person is watching her from afar and her childhood friend becomes very protective of her she imbarks on a journey in a other world full of poeple and secrets incovered that she never new

Puck ash puck ash puck ash ahhhhh i don`t know who im voting for there both awesome this story had alot of good hype about it so i read it and fully understand the hype it`s a great book maybe not in my top ten favorite books but pretty (beaver) damn close i think in this last year i have really grown a liking to the fey and this book only adds to it i also like how the author adds a reference to Shakespeare because of puck and the fairies courts so needless to say after all that that the book was very good the plot was original in one way and not original in the other but still made you gasp with no way while reading as much as some parts were very predictable that did not affect it at all it was predictable but since other events were happening and that the story changed courses so many times it really did not matter the main character was really nice and easy to relate to but at some points the teenage attitude was a bit ridiculous but most of the time she captured it well but i think the author did a great job in writing this book and i can`t wait to read iron daughter

City of Fallen Angels is the fourth book in the bestselling series The Mortal Instruments.

“Love, blood, betrayal and revenge — the stakes are higher than ever in City of Fallen Angels. Simon Lewis is having some trouble adjusting to his new life as a vampire, especially now that he hardly sees his best friend Clary, who is caught up in training to be a Shadowhunter—and spending time with her new boyfriend Jace. Not to mention that Simon doesn’t quite know how to handle the pressure of not-quite-dating two girls at once. What’s a daylight-loving vampire to do? Simon decides he needs a break and heads out of the city—only to discover that sinister events are following him. Realizing that the war they thought they’d won might not yet be over, Simon has to call on his Shadowhunter friends to save the day — if they can put their own splintering relationships on hold long enough to rise to the challenge.”

Undine by Penni Russon

 Undine

Official resume :Undine gets along well with her unconventional mother, she adores her baby brother, and she has a devoted kindred spirit in her best friend and next-door neighbor, Trout. It's inconvenient that Trout has a sloppy crush on her, but Undine tries to overlook this. Undine is basically satisfied . . . until strange things begin happening to her.      It starts with an odd feeling, a shadow in the mirror, a whisper only Undine can hear: It's time to come home. And it builds. One hot day, when Undine imagines knitting together a few scattered clouds, she creates a massive thunderstorm.      Who is Undine? Where does her power come from? What is she meant to do? Undine needs answers to these questions, so she sets off in search of a father she'd always believed was dead and a self she's only beginning to discover. But Undine's magic is powerful, wild, and dangerous -- and her feelings as she uncovers the truth are even fiercer. Will Undinee find herself or lose herself . . . and everyone she loves?

My resume:undine has a good life a mother she loves  a baby brother she also loves and a best friend who wants to be something more but when strange feelings and things start hapening to her she starts uncovering the truth about her and the sea

 ___________________________________

the dictionary would describe undine as a mythical sea creature also know as a sea nimph(omg original way to start hit`s herself in the head) but this undine is a carasmatic girl that i enjoyed very much at some points she was extremely sweet but on the snap of a thinger she could hold dark thoughts that she isn`t able to control this was a eery good book from the very first page to the very last it is a story of mystery magic and romance and there was just enough of every aspect to make it perfectly balanced all the love interest's in the book was very well described I also enjoyed how the point of view changed but did not change continuously for example the main caracter was undine but she let you in to her friends mind maybe 6 time throwout the book to know what was really going in his head witch helped you follow and understand the story a bit more

the plot was also good i do say this in almost every review but it`s true you expected the plot to go in this direction but i went completely in the other direction the author certainly suprised you.great book worth reading

good reading
