Clockwork Prince (Infernal Devices Series #2) by Cassandra Clare

ATTENTION CITY FANS! Those of you that read Cassandra Clare's spin off, well the latest book just hit the shelf! The Clockwork Prince is the second book and I started reading it this morning.


"In the magical underworld of Victorian London, Tessa Gray has at last found safety with the Shadowhunters. But that safety proves fleeting when rogue forces in the Clave plot to see her protector, Charlotte, replaced as head of the Institute. If Charlotte loses her position, Tessa will be out on the street—and easy prey for the mysterious Magister, who wants to use Tessa’s powers for his own dark ends.
With the help of the handsome, self-destructive Will and the fiercely devoted Jem, Tessa discovers that the Magister’s war on the Shadowhunters is deeply personal. He blames them for a long-ago tragedy that shattered his life. To unravel the secrets of the past, the trio journeys from mist-shrouded Yorkshire to a manor house that holds untold horrors, from the slums of London to an enchanted ballroom where Tessa discovers that the truth of her parentage is more sinister than she had imagined. When they encounter a clockwork demon bearing a warning for Will, they realize that the Magister himself knows their every move—and that one of their own has betrayed them.
Tessa finds her heart drawn more and more to Jem, though her longing for Will, despite his dark moods, continues to unsettle her. But something is changing in Will—the wall he has built around himself is crumbling. Could finding the Magister free Will from his secrets and give Tessa the answers about who she is and what she was born to do?
As their dangerous search for the Magister and the truth leads the friends into peril, Tessa learns that when love and lies are mixed, they can corrupt even the purest heart."







I really recommend this series!

Breaking Dawn: Yay or Nay Beware Spoilers!

Hey Guys! Yesterday I went and saw Breaking Dawn Part 1 with my best friend and I have to say over all, I liked it. They did a descent job. However there were a few things that I didn't like, along with some things that I thought were so good!

Bad:
-I felt like the movie was on fast forward. One minute they are getting married, then they are on a plane home. . I feel like they skipped a lot, like:
-The dream Bella has about the baby. They changed it to an insecure dream about Edward. She has never been insecure about Edward and her being together. maybe about whether or not she deserved him, but never if they were meant to be. at least I don't think so.
-I didn't like how they made Edward angry with Bella about her being pregnant. He was always supportive and never left her side. I did NOT like how they portrayed him. Also, He yelled at her! Not cool!!
-I didn't like how they skipped the first part of the book. Like the flashbacks and the car. Or the meadow, or her seeing the dress for the first time.
-I'm not really sure how I feel about Jacob's imprinting scene. I like how he explained what was happening, but I don't know, maybe they could have showed it better? I don't really know how they would, but it was ok.

Good:
-there were a lot of funny parts. I loved, loved, loved, loved the wedding, but I wish it were longer! I also loved the toasting. That was soooo funny! and I loved how Alice was yelling at everyone while they were setting up.
-I thought Bella's wedding dress, and shoes, and make up and hair, all of that was perfect! That's how I pictured her.
-I loved seeing Stephenie Meyer in the wedding. If I was her, I would want to see the most important and special part of my story coming to life. I would be like she was writing it all over again. I'm sure she pictured herself there while she sat at home in a world of her creation. And if she ever reads this, I want to say thank you to her. she has inspired thousands of people including me, and made a story we all love!
-I loved the music. I'm listening to the soundtrack as I type this and it makes me feel. . .I don't know, but the music is perfect with the movie and just as a collection of music. Summit did a great job!
-I liked how they showed the venom spreading through Bella. That was really creative and I think helped people who had never read the books realize what was happening.
-I think the actors did a way better job in this movie. Its about time!
-I loved how they made Bella look when she was pregnant. I loved that scene where Rose is helping her in the bathroom and you see Edward just broken looking at her broken body. The look on his face and on Bella's face...it was a great scene. My heart hurt for both of them.
-finally, I loved loved the scene where Edward hears the baby for the first time. !! So sweet!

Right now that's really all I can think of. I really did like it! If I was to critical, I'm not trying to be. I can't wait till the last part and I'm going to be sad when it's over. I can't wait to see what Stephenie is going to do after this. Hopefully we can expect something new from her. If you haven't seen it yet, GO SEE IT! Leave your comments below!

Thankful

Hey everyone! I hope your holidays have been great! I've been doing a lot of thinking, about what I have to be thankful for, and I realized I have a lot. I just wanted to thank all of you that read this blog. I was looking at my stats page out of curiosity just now and I am amazed how much it has grown over the last few years. I honestly didn't think anyone ever visited this site, and I was just putting myself out there for the world to see, just taking up space in the cyber world. Just posting useless things that no one really cares about. But obviously some one cares. I realize now that I need to post things more often. I need to be as dedicated as I sometimes like to think I am. Does that make sense? Anyways, Thank you, to all those who support this page. It means more than you can know.
Please, Enjoy!

The Music Box

Hey guys! I hope everyone's thanksgivings were great! I was working on the High School Romance page today and as I was writing, I Incorporated a song into the story. I realize it is in the Breaking Dawn movie, but I thought it fit well with my story too. If you read the Romance page it is in chapters 14 and 15. If it is annoying too you . . .sorry lol it does play twice because I want it to repeat while you read. I did that while I typed and I feel like it just helps the story. So Enjoy!

The Best Of Me by Nicholas Sparks

ATTENTION SPARKS FANS: Nicholas has released another book called The Best Of Me. I haven't read it yet but here's what its about:

'In the spring of 1984, high school students Amanda Collier and Dawson Cole fell deeply, irrevocably in love. Though they were from opposite sides of the tracks, their love for one another seemed to defy the realities of life in the small town of Oriental, North Carolina. But as the summer of their senior year came to a close, unforeseen events would tear the young couple apart, setting them on radically divergent paths.Now, twenty-five years later, Amanda and Dawson are summoned back to Oriental for the funeral of Tuck Hostetler, the mentor who once gave shelter to their high school romance. Neither has lived the life they imagined . . . and neither can forget the passionate first love that forever changed their lives. As Amanda and Dawson carry out the instructions Tuck left behind for them, they realize that everything they thought they knew -- about Tuck, about themselves, and about the dreams they held dear -- was not as it seemed. Forced to confront painful memories, the two former lovers will discover undeniable truths about the choices they have made. And in the course of a single, searing weekend, they will ask of the living, and the dead: Can love truly rewrite the past?'

Enjoy!

Matched by Allie Condie

The next book my book group is reading is called Matched by Allie Condie. Its another dystopian novel and I have heard good things. This is a little about it.

"Cassia has always trusted the Society to make the right choices for her: what to read, what to watch, what to believe. So when Xander's face appears on-screen at her Matching ceremony, Cassia knows with complete certainty that he is her ideal mate... until she sees Ky Markham's face flash for an instant before the screen fades to black. "

I plan on starting it tonight. The second book just came out and it is called Crossed. Check these out!

Incarceron by Catherine Fisher

I just finished this book last night and it was not what I expected. Its about a two worlds. One is called the Outside and the other is the Prison or Incarceron. Claudia, a the warden of the prison's, daughter, is completely horrified because she has to marry the queen's horrible son. She wants to find a way out. Her original betrothed was said to have died in an accident. When she finds out that he may be alive, she does everything she can to find out more. But she thinks he's inside the prison. I have heard rumors that this book will be a movie and Claudia will be Emma Watson from Harry Potter and Finn, or Giles will be Taylor Launtner from Twilight. These seem like great picks to me. This book wasn't one of my favorites but it was still interesting to read. Check it out! And if you are interested in more, read the sequel, Sapphique.

I'm really excited for the movie and plan on seeing it several times. I will post a review after!
(I don't know how many of these are legit. . .but I googled 'breaking dawn movie posters' and this is what came up. . .)

#11 On Summer Reading List

Hey everyone! Yesterday I finished that Nightshade book by Andrea Cremer. It was number 11 on the list. I didn't realize when I started it that it was a series. . . so beware that this book does leave off with a cliff hanger. The good news is that the first two books are out. The conclusion is to hit shelves in January. The second book is called Wolfsbane.

So this book started out with some confusing concepts. But as you continue to read, things begin to unfold and you start to understand that world that Calla has been born into. There is a pretty intense love triangle. I personally am Team Ren, the werewolf she has been betrothed too. Calla has to make a decision between her pack, and her destined future with Ren, and a life of freedom with Shay, a human she should have never met, so saved. This book is pretty relaxed. There are some intense parts but its a pretty easy read. I would recommend it. The last book is set to come out in January.

Reading List # 9 Divergent by Veronica Roth

Hey readers! Just last night I finished the book Divergent by Veronica Roth. I have to say those of you that love the Hunger Games, you will LOVE this book. I cannot believe how amazing this is. This book is about a future America. Instead of districts, like the hunger games, the people are split into Factions. They are split based on their personality. When a child is 16, they take a test which tells them which Faction they would fit best with. But when a young girl fits into none, She has to lie to protect herself from those who would kill her. She meets a young man roughly 2 years older than herself. She learns many things she never knew about herself, her family, her new friends, and people in general. This is on of my favorite books. I know all of you will enjoy it. Look for the second book in May. Its called Insurgent.

Right now I am reading a book called Nightshade by Andrea Cremer. It is number 11 on the list. Its pretty good so far. Those of you that like mystical creatures books, especially werewolves, you would probably like this.

-Enjoy!!

I Skipped Around :/

So these last few weeks, I kind of decided to skip a few of the books on my list because I couldn't get my hands on a copy, and I read those books that I already had or I could get my hands on. The first one that I read is called The Help by Katherine Stockett. And I have to say. . .W O W. It is one of the most amazing books I have yet to read. The relationships she describes between the white community and their black help is unique and well written. The everyday things that the black community had to deal with were written in such detail and grace. It really shows you what it was like to live during that time frame. The persecution they faced was unreal, and you get a sense of their fear while you read the words on these pages. The personalities of her characters were so loveable I thought I was being told the story personally. The people, the places, the events seem to jump off the page and unfold deep within your mind. And I don't just say that because Ms. Stockett's amazing story has recently hit the big screen. It is an incredible story of life, love, fear, racial prejudices, hardships, happiness, and bonds stronger than a million steal cables. I cannot stress enough that you read this novel. I promise that the words comming out of the characters mouths, such as Aibileen and Minny, will make you feel like you are apart of the story. Their dialect is spot on and it just completes the plot line further. I cannot praise Katherine Stockett enough for her work. I loved every second she allowed me to enter the world of her creation.

The second book I read is on the list. It is number 25 and it is called Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks. I haven't finished it yet, but many of my book loving friends told me I had to read it and it was one of their favorite Sparks novels. And so far I have to agree with them. This novel is about a women who has run away from her abusive husband. She winds up living in a small city that is so off the map, she would never be found by her detective husband. She meets Alex, and small store owner and a father of two young kids. The character's pasts will touch you in ways you can't imagine. You really feel for them and their pains. I am about half way through and the drama is only starting to begin. I love how Sparks set the foundation for this novel, with the plot and the relationships within. As I read through the chapters I can feel the tension rising and the ending is sure to be chin-dropping. It is truly amazing thus far.

I hope these suggestions can be of help to those in need of new reads.

#5 On My Summer Reading List

Hey everyone. I'm sorry it has taken me so long to post. I have been dealing with some personal things and haven't had time to sit down and post anything. The next book on my list was called Night Star by Alyson Noel. It is the fifth book in the Immortals series. I have to admit I finished this book a while ago.

It was a great book with some interesting plot points. I was disappointed though, that the major problem in Ever and Damen's lives had yet to be resolved. I sort of felt like I was being strung along waiting for something major to happen. There were some minor conflicts, everyday girlfriend boyfriend things. It wasn't all that interesting to me, but I have yet to purchase the last installment. I realize this may be a harsh opinion, but to be honest, I hated New Moon, but loved the rest of the Twilight series. So this is nothing against the series as a whole. Just this particular book. I think Alyson Noel is a brilliant author and she has a lot of great ideas that she has made come alive in her previous books. I guess I was just looking for a little more action is all.

Hope this helps someone, and I hope someone shares my thoughts.

# 3 & 4 On My Summer Reading List

Ok so the third and fourth books on my list were for my honors English class in school. I had to read them this summer and do all kinds of papers on them. If you like historical fiction these are two pretty good reads. I do like historical fiction, so I enjoyed them very much. But I have to say, that I liked the Crucible by Arthur Miller a lot more.

The Crucible: The Crucible is a play written about true events that took place in Salem Massachusetts during the 16 hundreds. Its about a small village of people who lived in peace until a young girl cried Witch. From there on, if someone had a grudge against you, you would most likely be charged with witchcraft and hanged. It is a great story, and I enjoyed reading it a lot.

The Chosen: The Chosen is about two Jewish boys. They go to different Jewish synagogues and have slightly different beliefs. They hate each other until on afternoon during a ball game. They become friends soon after and this is the story of their lives, religions, and histories. This story takes place during the second world war. I liked it, but for me it was sort of a longer read.

Both of these novels are great. Check them out!

-Enjoy!

# 1 & 2 On My Reading List

So the first book on my summer reading list was Spells by Aprilynne Pike. Since I read them back to back, and on the same night I may add, I decided to combine their posts. The Wings series is an incredible series about a normal human girl who realizes that she has been sent on a journey and doesn't remember her previous life as a Faerie. She was placed in the care of two humans as an infant. Her job was to obtain the land that her former home resides on. Her task is sent spiraling out of control when she is attacked by trolls and refuses to leave her human life. She falls in love with a human boy named David not knowing that she was already in love with a Faerie boy named Tam. When she and Tam are reunited old sparks ignite. I finished reading spells and I immediately had to read the next installment, Illusions. This book is a mix of drama, love, action, and mystery. When a new faerie enters the picture, everyone has questions. It leaves of with a complete cliff hanger, and I can't wait for the next one to hit shelves.
Please read these if you like the love triangle, mixed with mystery, action, and a great story line. Mystical creatures are just an added bonus.

Sad to Report

Dear Loyal Readers:

Every night, Azalea and her eleven sisters may step through the enchanted passage in their room to dance in his silver forest.
But there is a cost.
The Keeper likes to keep things.
Azalea may not realize how tangled she is in his web until it is too late."

Dark Mirror by M. J. Putney

This book is on the reading list.
"This historical romance/fantasy novel toggles back and forth in time between the early 1800s and the beginning of WWII. It is set in the town of Lackland, home of a boarding school for wayward sons and daughters of the British aristocracy. These students are not guilty of moral turpitude, but of having the ability to practice magic, which has been outlawed. Lady Victoria has just arrived at Lackland and her only hope of returning to society rests upon whether she can learn to repress her powers forever. But Tory finds that some of the teachers and students are members of a secret magic society that meets in the tunnels under the school to practice their craft. Tory joins the group and discovers a silver mirror that whisks her to 1940. There she finds that her magic is desperately needed, as the success of the evacuation of the Allies from Dunkirk depends upon the weather being just right. Except for a few plot holes here and there, this novel is satisfyingly constructed. The romance and fantasy are nicely balanced, without one overpowering the other. Unlike many adult novels in this genre, the romance is limited to passionate embraces, which makes it appropriate for younger teen readers. The characters and plot are fairly stock but comfortably predictable, with just enough surprise to keep the reader interested. All in all, this is a solid debut YA novel for Putney and it will appeal to teen fans of both romance and fantasy."

Steel by Carrie Vaughn

While I was browsing B&N I found this book and it look great!
"It was a slender length of rusted steel, tapered to a point at one end and jagged at the other, as if it had broken. A thousand people would step over it and think it trash, but not her.
This was the tip of a rapier.
Sixteen-year-old Jill has fought in dozens of fencing tournaments, but she has never held a sharpened blade. When she finds a corroded sword piece on a Caribbean beach, she is instantly intrigued and pockets it as her own personal treasure.
The broken tip holds secrets, though, and it transports Jill through time to the deck of a pirate ship. Stranded in the past and surrounded by strangers, she is forced to sign on as crew. But a pirate's life is bloody and brief, and as Jill learns about the dark magic that brought her there, she forms a desperate scheme to get home—one that risks everything in a duel to the death with a villainous pirate captain."

Divergent by Veronica Roth

One of my good book group friends is reading this book right now and she said its amazing. She reccomends it to everyone!
"In Beatrice Prior's dystopian Chicago, society is divided into five factions, each dedicated to the cultivation of a particular virtue—Candor (the honest), Abnegation (the selfless), Dauntless (the brave), Amity (the peaceful), and Erudite (the intelligent). On an appointed day of every year, all sixteen-year-olds must select the faction to which they will devote the rest of their lives. For Beatrice, the decision is between staying with her family and being who she really is—she can't have both. So she makes a choice that surprises everyone, including herself.
During the highly competitive initiation that follows, Beatrice renames herself Tris and struggles to determine who her friends really are—and where, exactly, a romance with a sometimes fascinating, sometimes infuriating boy fits into the life she's chosen. But Tris also has a secret, one she's kept hidden from everyone because she's been warned it can mean death. And as she discovers a growing conflict that threatens to unravel her seemingly perfect society, she also learns that her secret might help her save those she loves . . . or it might destroy her.
Debut author Veronica Roth bursts onto the literary scene with the first book in the Divergent series—dystopian thrillers filled with electrifying decisions, heartbreaking betrayals, stunning consequences, and unexpected romance.

Updates!

Hey Guys! Happy spring break and happy Easter! I recently finished reading the new installment to the Mortal Instruments series and I have to say it was amazing! The last book left so many things open and the author took the series in a whole new direction. There were many scenes that were action packed and there are new romances forming. And of course the book has left off in a major cliff hanger! There have been many speculations as to what is to come. Cross your fingers that the next books release date, which is set for May 2012, is pushed up.

Also being released this year is Clockwork Prince, the second book in the Mortal Instruments spin off series. The first one is amazing as well and a few of the characters are referenced in the City of Fallen Angels so I highly recommend reading it. (September 2011)

This past week the Twilight Saga Official Guide was released. It is about the size of Breaking Dawn but is totally STUFFED with information, pics, back stories, and more.

Here are some release dates I was able to look up:

Illusions by Aprilynne Pike, (3rd Wings book)- May 3, 2011

Everlasting by Alyson Noel (Evermore series)- June 7th, 2011

Passion by Lauren Kate (Fallen Series)- June 14, 2011

The Power of the Six by Pitticus Lore(I am number four sequel)- August 23, 2011

Clockwork Prince by Cassandra Clare(The Infernal Devices)- September 2011

City of Lost Souls by Cassandra Clare(Mortal Instruments)- May 2012

Clockwork Princess by Cassandra Clare(The Infernal Devices)- November 2012

City Of Heavenly Fire by Cassandra Clare(Mortal Instruments)- September 2013

Deadly Little Secret by Laurie Faria Stolarz

Alright Twilight Fans here is another series you will love! As a Twilight fan myself I absolutely loved these books! They are kind of similar but they have their differences too.

"A supernatural romance about a 16-year old girl's attraction to the hunky, but mysterious new guy in school, whose touch has very unnerving effects -- from the author of the bestselling Blue is for Nightmares series.

It all begins with a near-death accident. A mysterious boy saves Camelia from an out-of-control car in the school parking lot, and then speeds off on his motorcycle before she can thank him. She is left wondering who he is.
Her friends think she's overreacting, or that she needs a boyfriend, or that she should forget him. But when Ben Carter starts school in the fall, she's interested in him.
Best friend Kimmie may think that she should go back to her ex-boyfriend and good friend Matt, but Camelia can't shake the feeling that Ben is special, even if he was with his girlfriend the night she died. Scattered throughout the story are what seem to be journal entries of a boy watching Camelia. He's obviously fallen for her, but he's lying low. He is willing to do whatever it takes to get Camelia to notice him and keep her away from everyone else. From Camelia's point of view, life is increasingly more disturbing. Someone is leaving her gifts, calling her on the phone, pounding on her door, and breaking into her room. Camelia needs to know who to trust before it is too late. This is an engaging, eerie tale about the darker side of relationships—when it becomes a matter of life and death to know who your friends are. Reviewer: Aimee Cole"

Tantalize by Cynthia Leitich Smith

I saw these books while browsing the B&N library. They look kind of good :)

"Are you predator or prey?
CLASSIFIED ADS: RESTAURANTS SANGUINI'S: A VERY RARE RESTAURANT IS HIRING A CHEF DE CUISINE. DINNERS ONLY.
APPLY IN PERSON BETWEEN 2:00 AND 4:00 PM.
Quincie Morris has never felt more alone. Her parents are dead, and her hybrid-werewolf first love is threatening to embark on a rite of passage that will separate them forever. Then, as she and her uncle are about to unveil their hot vampire-themed restaurant, a brutal murder leaves them scrambling for a chef. Can Quincie transform their new hire into a culinary Dark Lord before opening night? Can he wow the crowd in his fake fangs, cheap cape, and red contact lenses — or is there more to this earnest face than meets the eye? As human and preternatural forces clash, a deadly love triangle forms, and the line between predator and prey begins to blur. Who’s playing whom? And how long can Quincie play along before she loses everything? TANTALIZE marks Cynthia Leitich Smith’s delicious debut as a preeminent author of dark fantasy."

The Water Wars by Cameron Stracher

This is my current Book Group read. Its called The Water Wars by Cameron Stracher. Its a really good book but to me a little confusing. Its all about the control the governments has on the future America.

"Would you risk everything for someone you just met?"

Publishers Weekly:
Adult author Stracher (The Laws of Return) offers a bleak picture of the future in his first YA novel: fresh water has become a scarce commodity, with most people relying on meager rations of desalinated ocean water distributed by the government. Nations war over extant supplies, pirates thrive, black markets flourish, and desalination companies wield immense influence. Vera and her older brother, Will, have never known anything else. Then they met Kai, the enigmatic son of a water driller, who lives a life of paranoid luxury by comparison. When Kai is kidnapped, Will and Vera embark on a quest to rescue him, going through a series of adventures that take them far from home. Battling pirates, escaping ecoterrorists, and plunging to the heart of a corrupt conspiracy, they learn more about their world than they ever expected, including why Kai is of vital importance. Though characterizations can feel thin and some elements are hard to swallow, it's clear that Stracher has put much thought into the effects of cataclysmic water shortages. His fast-paced, nonstop thriller doesn't hold back in its portrayal of a parched, desperate world. Ages 12 up. (Jan.)"

The Dark and Hollow Places by Carrie Ryan

Listen up Carrie Ryan Fans!! The Next book in the Forest of Hands And Teeth Series comes out sometime this month! Its called The Dark and Hollow Places.

"There are many things that Annah would like to forget: the look on her sister's face before Annah left her behind in the Forest of Hands and Teeth, her first glimpse of the Horde as they swarmed the Dark City, the sear of the barbed wire that would scar her for life. But most of all, Annah would like to forget the morning Elias left her for the Recruiters.
Annah's world stopped that day, and she's been waiting for Elias to come home ever since. Somehow, without him, her life doesn't feel much different than the dead that roam the wasted city around her. Until she meets Catcher, and everything feels alive again.
But Catcher has his own secrets. Dark, terrifying truths that link him to a past Annah has longed to forget, and to a future too deadly to consider. And now it's up to Annah: can she continue to live in a world covered in the blood of the living? Or is death the only escape from the Return's destruction?"

Wake by Lisa McMann

My book group read this and they said it was really good. I didn't read it due to sexual content.

"Not all dreams are sweet.
For seventeen-year-old Janie, getting sucked into other people's dreams is getting old. Especially the falling dreams, the naked-but-nobody-notices dreams, and the sex-crazed dreams. Janie's seen enough fantasy booty to last her a lifetime.
She can't tell anybody about what she does -- they'd never believe her, or worse, they'd think she's a freak. So Janie lives on the fringe, cursed with an ability she doesn't want and can't control.
Then she falls into a gruesome nightmare, one that chills her to the bone. For the first time, Janie is more than a witness to someone else's twisted psyche. She is a participant...."
