This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten Books That Will Make You Cry

Okay lets just say that this week was pretty easy. I am a very emotional person, so even something little makes me cry. These are in particular order.

1. The Hunger Games Trio by Suzanne Collins: I cried a little in each book, gosh they were just all emotional. All the deaths. I could not hold the tears in at all.

2. The Harry Potter Series by J.K Rowling: I just, I don’t know how to explain how much these book effected me. I mostly cried from books 4-7 just because all of those, close to heart deaths. I pretty much cried nearly throughout the whole Deathly Hallows.

3. Frostbite, Shadow Kiss, Blood Promise by Richelle Mead: The emotions that pulled at my heart through these books, gosh. I don’t want to spoil anything for anyone so I can’t really go into depth. Just read and find out .

4. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green: Okay I pretty much cried like a baby from Amsterdam to the end. I have no idea how I am going to last the movie.

5. Pushing the Limits by Katie McGarry: There was certain moments in this books that just brought tears to my eyes.

6. Looking for Alaska by John Green: John Green again you just want to rip our my heart and step on it over and over again

7. Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson: This book was just so emotional and heart wrenching

8. Pawn by Aimee Carter: I am not really sure what about this books made me tear up but it did.

9. Rapture by Lauren Kate: The ending gosh just so beautiful.

10. Tape by Steven Camden: Tape was very moving and brought tears to my eyes

So that’s my Top Ten for this book. Did any of these book make you cry? What books made you cry?

Top Ten Worlds I’d Never Want To Live

Jan 28, 2014

This week was somewhat hard. Some worlds just come to my mind so quick, but then other times I had to really think about it. As you will see most of the worlds included are Dystopian. These are in no particular order. (Click on the covers for reviews that I have done for some of the books)

1. Panem: The Hunger Games by Suzzane Collins – Who would want to live in a world where you could go into a game where you could die. Where if you were born, into a less fortunate district, you are living on nothing. Where you are controlled by people, that get everything. Not Me, Thank you.

2. Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi – everything about this world is scary, where ever you live. Just in different ways.

3. Harry Potter: War Time by J.K Rowling – I love the world that J.K created but not during the war with Voldemort. I would not want everyday fearing for the worst. Worry about my friends and family. If it’s after the war then hell yeah would love to live there.

4. Delirum by Lauren Oliver – A world without love, no thank you.

5. City of Chicago: Divergent by Veronica Roth – I am pretty sure if I lived in this world, I would be a Divergent, so I don’t think that’s the best for me. And to say that I am very strong options on things so I don’t think that’s the best.

6. Westeros: Song and Fire and Ice by George R.R. Martin – A world where you have no idea who you can trust, don’t know who is good, who is bad, where everyone you love could die. A world where manipulation is okay, where you are forced into marriage. I think maybe because I know that things like this somewhat, happen in history makes it that much worse.

7. Australia: Tomorrow when the War Began by John Marsden – Gosh, imagine just going away for a few days and coming back to everything not the way that is it was before. I think because I live in Australia, it makes it that more surreal.

8. During the War: Angel by L.A Weatherly – A War where Angel’s hurt humans, they are horrible and just run the world and more are coming.

9. AngelFall by Susan Ee – Another world where Angel’s are terrifying as hell. Where they have taken over.

So that’s my list, how do you feel about these worlds? What are some worlds you would not want to live in?

Top Ten Things On My Reading Wishlist

Jan 20, 2014

This week’s Top Ten Tuesday is: Top Ten Eight Things On My Reading Wishlist (if you could make authors write about these things you would.) These are in no Particular order and they are for mostly YA authors.

1.I wish for… More YA thriller – I am really liking thriller novels at the moment after reading Psycho Inside Me but there isn’t that much, in young adult novels so I would love some more.

2. I wish for…More books based around Greek Mythology – I love Greek Mythology alot, I would love for more YA novels to be based on it, just all about the Greek Gods, the demi gods, all the monsters. Pretty awesome if I say so myself.

3. I wish for… More novels about magic – I love magic and everything about it, so some more novels that incorporate magic is pretty awesome. I know there is a bit already out, but i want more like Harry Potter if you get what I mean.

4. I wish for… More Male character leads – yes there is a few but not many. It’s different and nice having someone other then a female as our main character.

5. I wish for… More books set in Australia – There is countless books set in America and i am just sick of reading about the same place over and over again. I live in Australia and I have only read 1 book that is set in Australia it was so awesome, I knew the places that were being talked about and i wasn’t as lost

6. I wish for… Books set around the war time – I am always intrigued about books set around war, and I would love see more set around of times of real wars.

7. I wish for… Less love triangles – I hate love triangles, the annoy me and get me so angry, so do many other things check out some here. Sometimes i don’t read a book because I know it has a love triangle in it. They just out me so off.

8. I wish for… More books set in Medieval Times – Something about this time era pulls me in. I am not sure to what it is. Maybe because ‘magic’ was around in these times and just the clothes worn, knights, kings, queens etc I just love it.
