Allegiant Movie Review (Caution, May Contain Unplanned Spoilers)

Hey y'all! So earlier this week I went with my brother to see the third installment of Veronica Roth's Divergent movie adaptation Allegiant. I was a big fan of the first two movies and thought the directors and the writers did a pretty decent job sticking to the books. However, I was incredibly disappointed with this movie. While the graphics and acting were pretty good, the script failed to follow the book. For those of you who have read the series, you know that the third book had a pretty distinct ending. There is a MAJOR MAJOR MAJOR plot point that is left out of the movie. Now I won't give details for fear of spoiling, but those of you who've read, you know what detail I am referring to. Now this could mean that the movie franchise is not over and they plan on making a fourth movie in which they will include this massive detail, however such a movie has not been announced to my knowledge. Allegiant (The movie) felt really awkward at the end. It was very much unresolved and that's why I feel that maybe they aren't done with the movies yet. However where they stopped the movie . . .there's not much else left of the book to tell. What I mean is that there isn't enough left of the book to fill a fourth movie. Overall, I left the theater very unhappy and disappointed.

Let me know what you all think of the movie!

Enjoy!

Finally! Its Here!

Hey y'all! Sorry this post is so late, but better late than never I guess!

This last week, on March 8th, Cassandra Claire's latest novel hit the shelves! Lady Midnight is the first in a new spin off series called Dark Artifices which is similar to the Infernal Devices spinoff only set much later and in Los Angeles rather than England. How far are y'all? I am several hundred pages in and it is AMAZING. I must also thank Cassandra Claire for giving us not a measly 300 pages, but nearly 700 PAGES! It makes the wait that much more worth it!

the Sunset Strip to the enchanted sea that pounds the beaches of Santa Monica. If only her heart didn't lead her in treacherous directions…
Making things even more complicated, Julian's brother Mark—who was captured by the faeries five years ago—has been returned as a bargaining chip. The faeries are desperate to find out who is murdering their kind—and they need the Shadowhunters' help to do it. But time works differently in faerie, so Mark has barely aged and doesn't recognize his family. Can he ever truly return to them? Will the faeries really allow it?Glitz, glamours, and Shadowhunters abound in this heartrending opening to Cassandra Clare's Dark Artifices series." (B&N.com)
