Jennifer Bosworth - Struck

Hey!

I decided to read Struck written by Jennifer Bosworth because so many people were saying it was pretty good and I wouldn't waste my time. And that is an expression I love to hear.

"Mia Price is a lightning addict. She's survived strikes, but her craving to connect to the energy in storms endangers her life and the lives of those around her.

Los Angeles, where lightning rarely strikes, is one of the few places Mia feels safe from her addiction. But when an earthwake devastes the city, her haven is transformed into a minefield of chaos and danger. The beaches become massive tent cities. Downtown is a crumbling wasteland, where a traveling party moves to a different empty building each night, the revelers drawn to the destruction by a force they cannot deny- Two warring cults rise to power, and both see Mia as the key to their opposing doomsday prophecies. They believe she has a connection to the freak electrical storm that caused the quake, and to the far devastating storm that is yet to come.

Mia wants to trust the enigmatic and aluring Jeremy when he promises to protect her, but she fears he isn't who he claims to be. In the end, the passion and power that brought them together could be their downfall. When the final disaster strikes, Mia must risk unleashing the full horror of her strenght to safe the people she loves or lose everything."


A girl who can sort of control lightnings? Hell yes I was going to read this book.
But it isn't exactly that way the book follows...

GoodReads

Hi!

I was thinking about how many post I have which are related to books. Such as such with book trailers or where I write my opinion about the last book I read at that moment.
They're quite a few. Probably more than what I think.
Thus I decided to create an account on Goodreads.


 If you don't know what Goodreads is, I'll tell you. It's a website where you sign in freely with your name, email and password, after that you select which types of books you like to read and finally, check 19 books you already read or are planning to.
If I remember clearly these are the first 3 steps.
After all that you start reviewing and enter in groups which are more appeling to you.
Basically you share your opinion and receive others that can help you decide what book to read next.

And also, it's available an app that makes everything easier to access anytime anywhere.

So far I'm really happy about my inscrition.

Rachel Bilson - Funny Or Die

Hello!

It was late but I did have discover the video of Rachel Bilson for Funny Or Die. It's hilarious! And helps if you follow Hart Of Dixie and are aware of its buzz.


I laughed pretty hard.
Who knew she could rap?

My Voice


Within this restless, hurried, modern world
We took our hearts' full pleasure - You and I,
And now the white sails of our ship are furled,
And spent the lading of our argosy.

Wherefore my cheeks before their time are wan,
For very weeping is my gladness fled,
Sorrow hath paled my lip's vermilion,
And Ruin draws the curtains of my bed.

But all this crowded life has been to thee
No more than lyre, or lute, or subtle spell
Of viols, or the music of the sea
That sleeps, a mimic echo, in the shell.

Author: Oscar Wilde

Catherine Fisher - Incarceron

Heya!

I finished Incarceron written by Catherine Fisher.

"Imagine a living prison so vast that it contains corridors and forests, cities and seas.
Imagine a prisoner with no memory, who is sure he came from Outside, even though the prison has been sealed for centuries and only one man, half real, half legend, had ever escaped.
Imagine a girl in a manor house in a society where time has been forbidden, where everyone is held in a seventeenth century world run by computers, doomed to an arranged marriage that appals her, tangled in an assassination plot she both dreads and desires.
One inside, one outside.
But both imprisoned.
Imagine a war that has hollowed the moon, seven skullrings that contain souls, a flying ship and a wall at the world's end.
Imagine the unimaginable.
Imagine Incarceron."


How does that sound to you?
Promising, right?
