Review: Until Friday Night

Until Friday Night Until Friday Night by Abbi Glines
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

*sob*


. Aunt Coralee: In life we often have to make decisions that aren’t easy. But it doesn’t mean they aren’t right.

Maggie: But what if they’re wrong?

Aunt Coralee: fate steps in and fixes things. You just have to trust it.


It’s not TFIOS but yeah, when you know there’s a character that is going to die, it hard not to think of it. Well, on UFN it’s not the lover that is going to die.

I think this is an another side of Abbi Glines I never seen (well in this case, read) before.

#MUSTREAD



*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.


• It was very raw and honest. And it has so much angst that it’s hard not to affect me. And I think, you’re THAT numb if you don’t.

• As bad as it sounds. I just want to end his suffering, because I really do feel it. I kept on wishing please, please, please.
It’s just that I don’t want the people in our house see/hear me crying.

• It’s kinda weird that the first part was very slow paced and then... suddenly I was turning the last page.

• It’s also weird that TFIOS had a huge impact on me. UGH! Even there’s no connection or whatsoever.

Review: The Lies About Truth

The Lies About Truth The Lies About Truth by Courtney C. Stevens
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 Stars!
Lies. Lies. Lies.Lies. Lies.

But here’s some truth… this book is really good.

I’m impressed.


*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.

• Ha! I’m back with Project–Read–YAContemporary–Novels. *eye roll* Yes I just made that up… like a minute ago.

• I love the cover… but you have to admit… the guys there are older than the characters by much much.

• I don’t know what is wrong with me. When I read… for example, a Romance book that is written by one of my fave author sometimes I ended up disappointed. So I don’t know why I evade reading YAC… when they are this good.

• OR MAYBE, HarperCollins just happen to have an amazing collection.

• The Truth About Lies is a story of four friends grieving from the lost of their dearest friend/brother.
Sadie, Max, Grey and Gina. They are less than a month away from the one-year anniversary of Trent death. A death caused by an accident which they are all in.
What really happened that day?

• They met again… talked about that night.
That’s when they discovered the secrets, the lies and everything.
Now… they are on the ‘mission’ on making memories

Review: The Copper Gauntlet

The Copper Gauntlet The Copper Gauntlet by Holly Black
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 stars!!!



description

“The end is closer than you think, Makar.” –Warren


Yeah!
Cassandra Clare and Holly Black did not disappoint!

5 STARS B****es! SO GOOD! I LOVE IT!


*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.

• The Copper Gauntlet is more adventurous than The Iron Trial. I liked that they went outside the Magisterium. (I know it’s against the rules.) I also this one is more fun.

• My only gripe on this book is that it’s too short… I mean much as I love it, I kinda wanted. I waited a year. Duh!

• I wish there’s more of the Copper Year thingies. I love their studies on The Iron Trial; it’s one of my favorite.

• I also love that I got to know more of the main characters, the world and wonders of Magisterium, which I think is cool.

• The last part… it was almost like the first one. You gotta step it up.
But ‘THE HEAD’ thingy, damn, that was so effing creepy as hell…

• The Copper Gauntlet did not remind me of Harry Potter any more.
And I realized that after I finished it. Kudos for that! *thumbs up*

• But the thing is this series is definitely going to be on my every year’s TO-READ list.

• And I really do wish it was longer…

Review: Queen of Shadows

Queen of Shadows Queen of Shadows by Sarah J. Maas
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

4 STARS!!!
I did not enjoyed reading Queen of Shadows that much.
Why? WHY? F***ING WHY?!
I’m still heartbroken.
Chaol & Celaena are really done. And I am so fucking done. UGH!
It’s like I want to cry over it but I am beyond pissed off.
I lost hope… I’m went in a bad mood and I really hate Aelin.


*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.

• She’s Aelin now… and well I really hate typing her name… I always get the spelling wrong.
*eye roll*

• I don’t know if it’s just me or I just really hate the idea of Chaol is being replaced. Do you guys love Aelin & Rowan romance thingy? As much I love Rowan and his thingy… *giggle*…I don’t see or feel any chemistry. I’m sorry. It’s like Jamie & Cersei Lannister. I think Sarah J Mas is trying really hard to pair the two of them. And I think I will never be okay with it.

• Well, let’s put aside my gripes. The things happened are actually good.
So many things… and I can’t wait on what is going to happen next.
DAMN! I can’t even think of a scenario that… I can be excited for the months I am going to wait for the next book. And I really love that about how it ended.

• AND #SPOILERALERT Arobyn fucking Hamel is dead! YESSS! One of the best news in FICTION WORLD. *thumbs up*

• Oh yeah! I almost forgot.
Dorian and that freaky Manon. Hmmm…
WHAT NOW?
ME = VOMITING

• Speaking of Dorian… and the thing happened on the previous book. The collar thingy, damn I thought he’s going to be the most evil thing and then…
I kinda wanted more of that. Yes I don’t want the collar on him but… what now?
WHO IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT ‘EVIL’?

• *fingers crossed*
I think/ the next book will be years after this one.

Review: Dirty Promises

Dirty Promises Dirty Promises by Karina Halle
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

And the worst part was, as much as I was falling out of love … I still loved him something terrible.
Love was a terrible thing.


OhMyGod!

THAT IS IT?! NO MORE JAVIER BERNAL?!

Honestly, I am not satisfied AT ALL.

Don’t get me wrong, I love the book so much. But this one is full of violence, gore and etc.
I want to see the soft… softer & romantic side of Javier Bernal. I miss that… very much.


*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.

• There is this scene that I am not going to forget anytime soon. DAMN!
O.O
He made her shorter than him because she said men shorter than her is not her type.
I mean… he used a machete. O.O
It’s giving me chills.

• It was scarier than most Horror books. It’s not a Horror book but it was horrifying enough to be one. You don’t want be on Javier Bernal’s bad side.

• I hate Esteban… who doesn’t?
And then he and Luisa… *vomit* *vomit* *vomit*

• I want more… I’m not satisfied… I want a REAL ending.

Walk on Earth a Stranger by Rae Carson [ARC REVIEW]

Walk on Earth a Stranger Walk on Earth a Stranger by Rae Carson
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When I reached the last page…
It’s so weird… I felt triumphant… successful… it’s like I accomplished something that is so big.
So cool!
It was like I was with them throughout their journey, not as reader but as a character.


*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.


• It has this “something” you are always looking on a book.

• I’m not sure if there’s going to be a sequel… but I kinda like it how it is.
I’m thinking of something that might happen if there’s a sequel… I just can’t.
The best thing about this is the “journey” to the gold rush.

• This one is a must read I recommend it to everyone. You’re going to love it as much as I did. *thumbs up.

• Reading Walk on Earth a Stranger is an experience. Don’t miss it!

• PS: In wish my ARC has a map. *grin*

• PSS: I wrote this review after I finished reading it. So I just saw on goodreads that it’s going to be a Trilogy.

The Fate of Ten by Pittacus Lore [REVIEW]

The Fate of Ten by Pittacus Lore
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

“I’m not putting myself before the whole world, John. I wanted to see a future where Setrákus Ra is killed, no matter the consequences.
I wanted to see a future where someone has the guts to do what needs to be done.”
–Ellla


OHEMGEE!

WHAT THE F JUST HAPPENED?

SHE’S DEAD?!

FOR REAL?

*gasp*

WOOH! YAY!

*MC’s Corner*
Note: Spoilers.
• I mean… I’m not a big fan of her, even if she dead it’s not that big deal for me. *shrug*
Well… just don’t make ‘him’ go berserk.
I do feel like, in some way that she is kinda hindrance to what the Garde’s mission. Its better this way.

• And then it turns out she just passed out. #notreallydead

• Setrákus Ra… I’M NOT SO SURE IS HE TOO IS DEAD.
DUH! There’s another book coming… it can’t not have a villain.

• Speaking of the next book. How many months are going to wait exactly? UGH!
Damn Pittacus Lore’s cliff–effing –hangers.

• Pittacus Lore–THE CHARACTER NOT THE AUTHOR.
OH MY GOD!
I LOVE THAT PART!

• And the war is like… starting to be real. Though I wish Pittacus Lore, the author, will make it bloodier. You know? The gorier the more fun. #BLOODTHIRSTYME

• I kinda wish that Mark had powers/Legacies too, like Sam. Lucky Sam.

• John’s Legacy–YES! I knew he’s more than just that. *thumbs up* I approved.

• *crossed fingers*
I hope that the whole gang will finally REALLY meet.
