    Lux #5

    Author: Jennifer L. Armentrout

    Genre: Freaking Grand

    It ended. Oh My…

    No more Daemon Black… yes, that was basically my only thought in a loop. But like everything, life goes on if not ask Katy. I must say she redeemed herself to me on this last book. She pulled together.

    Jennifer Armentrout, you are a genius. I don’t know what it was in this book (maybe an unknown visual hypnosis) but I was hooked no matter where I looked. All I have to say to this author is: Thank You.

    I’m going to assume you have read the book if not, what are you waiting for? Although if you haven’t read ANY of the Lux Novels then by all the baby aliens everywhere please start, it would be worth your time.

  • Fallen

    Fallen

    Author: Lauren Kate

     Genre: Young-Adult, Fantasy, Romance, Paranormal.

     Fallen… Fallen…. I have only read the first book and even when the first chapters were unable to capture me and hold me hostage. I knew there was something good in that book, I could feel it so I kept on reading, despite all odds by the time I got to Daniel being DANIEL, I simply said: there it is! I knew it was worth it.

  • The Time Traveler’s Wife

    The Time Traveler’s Wife

    Author: Audrey Niffenegger

     This one is difficult for me… because I could write only a couple of words and be done with it. Such as: I love this book or I like the movie.

    The problem comes to whether you have read the book or watched the movie at some point. I think I’ll go with: This might Contain Spoilers, if you read something you don’t know don’t blame me. You’ve been warned!

  • The Time Weaver

    The Time Weaver

    Drákon #5

    By Shana Abé

    If I’m to be honest, I did not have my hopes up for this one. There! I admit it.

    That being said, I can now tell you all that I was: so freaking wrong. That book is great, I do not know how Shana did it but The Time Weaver managed to capture my attention like the other ones did not, except for The Smoke Thief, which is book 1 in the Drákon world, TTW being the last statement.

    I won’t say much because this one I really do not want to say a thing, I want all to read it. I recommend it completely, of course maybe you’ll like to read the first 4 books to know what the heck is going on or at least have some idea. I’m telling you I read them all, and I had a difficult time catching up.

  • Drákon Series

    Drákon Series

    Author: Shana Abé

    Genre: Fantasy. Romance. Paranormal. Historical

    I decided to make these entries by book, why? Because they are all different, at least in character. They all have a different set of characters as the main protagonists, so this is the best way of explaining each one, also each book is great and unique; even, if they all talk about Drákon they still differ in some aspects.

    I might add that they all follow a story, I have yet to read the 5th book but as far as I can tell they all have good stories, plots. Let us start with the first four books in this series.

  • The Mortal Instruments

    The Mortal Instruments

    Author: Cassandra Clare

    Genre: Fantasy, Urban, YA, Supernatural

    Where to begin? Once upon a time, oh wait! That’s not it.

    The Mortal Instruments, these books were first recommended by a friend a long long time ago, I didn’t listen to his recommendations not in the slightest, he even sent me the books (Yes Ebook reader here, in case you didn’t know), I was like “Yes, I’ll read them” and then I would add a muttered: Someday.

    I was so mistaken then, The Mortal Instruments are great, please do not let the movie trick you, they gave it a good try with that and we fans hope they do better with the TV Series, the movie has three great things: Jamie Campbell Bower, Jonathan Rhys Meyer, Aidan Turner. Oh! Make that 4 things with Lena Headey. So yes, it could have been awesome if they had known who would be watching the movie. Done with that. The rest of the actors were alright too but the books are so much better, really done now. The so-called review starts now.

  • The Vampire Diaries Series

    The Vampire Diaries Series

    by L.J. Smith

    Genres: Vampires. Fantasy. Romance. Drama. Young Adult (sort of).

    How a true “teenage” vampire should act…

    I read these books I think a year or so after the Twilight Saga, I cannot recall actually, it was after Twilight, I know that much and boy! Did it open my eyes, of course so it had Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice but that book is a different type of history and drama in a more adult and sometimes creepier way.

    Now, this story about vampires is really something else, after the first two books you really begin to wonder if you will finish the whole thing, it happened to me but there was just something about it that kept me there, I continued reading and reading and then I was in the final books and could not believe how it started and where it had led, pretty interesting way of making the reader be immerse into the story.

    Alright, let’s begin.

    Idhun’s Memories

    The Idhún’s Memories (The Idhun Chronicles)

    Books in this Trilogy: La Resistencia, Triada, Panteón

    Author: Laura Gallego García

    Genre: Fantasy, drama, teen, YA, paranormal, awesome

    Greatest Spanish book ever!!! Did you notice the 3 exclamations points? Exactly, it is that good.

    My favourite book or one of my favourites in the fantasy department. It tops up with Harry Potter, The Dark Artifices, and Drakon Series, not in what happens but in what they make you think and feel, in the sense of reading a great book.

    I was going to describe some of the creatures in the books, but it may take some of the excitement out of reading it; when I first read it, I didn’t know a thing about it, only that it was fantasy and that was one of the best things and worst thing that could have happened to me.

    Hush Hush Saga

    Book: Hush Hush

    By Becca Fitzpatrick

    I Love Patch

    That is it, that is all I have to say, Not! Lol, actually I spent like a week or so thinking of Patch Cipriano after I was done with the saga; I was/am so smitten, captivated and all of that, I don’t know what it is about Patch I just know that I find him breath-taking and one of the best male characters.
