Let me assure you.

I'm better now! Totally a weird funk!! I am still a kind of social outcast right now. I spent 3 hours yesterday finishing the 6th Harry Potter book. But, I am feeling fine.

I'll post again later,

I'm losing my mind.

FWI-- the big post I refer to below DOES NOT EXSIST and please IGNORE anything involving that.

Now for my title, yes, I'm losing my mind. Going crazy. Off my nut. I'm banana's, batty, berzerk, bonkers. And I'm not really sure why.

I am angry, and restless, dreading the coming week and the rest of the day.

I have been keeping a secret from you. I have been reading the Harry Potter series. (I really am losing my mind...) Anyway, I am now in the middle of the 5th book, (And it really is good...) But I think I might know the source of some of my anger (Besides the fact that I am so freaking tired!) Harry, the protagonist in the series, (Oh really Rememdyleaf? I wasn't sure since the series is named after him!) is quite angry and frustrated in this part of the book, so I think somehow, (Really, this sounds loony) Harry's feelings are channeling into me!

Bye,

Aurelia

Hey blog readers! Do you like the new stuff?????? There will be more books in the list to be read as I find more!!!

Today I am going to review Aurelia by Anne Osterlund.

Aurelia is about, (you guessed it!!!) Aurelia!!!!

Synopsis:

Aurelia is the crown princess and the protagonist of the book. The book introduces Aurelia as a stubborn and very strong character. Then Anne brings in Robert, an old classmate of Aurelia's, and a friend she hasn't seen in 4 years.

The story is centered around the attempts of murder to Aurelia. This keeps the story upbeat, and surprising.

General Review: I truly enjoyed reading Aurelia because of the interesting characters and exciting plot. I read it almost all the way through at one time and felt that that was the best way to read this kind of book. Rating 4 & 1/2 stars.

Writing Style review: The book was written in typical chapters. I would have liked something a little more interesting though. I mean, Anne could have played around with the Medieval time period or something. I don't know, just a little more pizzaz with the style would have made all the difference. 4 stars.

Writing Content Review: When I first opened Aurelia I was startled by how descriptive Anne Osterlund was. This worked both ways for the story. It was positive in the light that it gave the book more bulk, and I was able to picture the whole thing better. But still, it was also a negative element at times because 1) It distracted me from the point of the story. and 2) It made scenes that were simple and too the point long a dreary. 4 stars

Now I'm reading a bunch of things, but still, I can't wait to review something else!!!

I,Q

Wait,

Before I get started, I just want to say that I did finish Stealing Heaven and I liked it, but I cannot review it. I must leave it at that even if you think that I'm crazy.

So I recently finished I,Q: Independence Hall by Roland Smith.

Synopsis:


I,Q: Independence Hall is the first book in the I,Q trilogy, the other two (I,Q: The White House, I, Q: Kitty Hawk) All by Roland Smith.

The protagonist is a boy named Quest (Q) who is the son and step-son of rockstars Blaze Munoz and Roger Tucker. His new step-sister is Angela (Tucker)

In the beginning of the story, Q and Angela's parents are beginning their tour as the most sensational couple in the music industry. Q and Angela live in the bus with them, but their parents are jetting all over the country for T.V interviews and private concerts.

But then things change...

Plot:

The plot worked well the idea. and I don't recall seeing through it.

Characters:

I wish the characters would have been a bit more defined, they were a little wishy-washy and flimsy. That would have made the book more worth while.

Writing Style: The style was just regular chapters, but I wish Roland would have used something a little more original. Also, I wish the story had been a bit more descriptive. It was barely enough to get anything except a general picture.

Ending and Beginning: The beginning did truly grab me, and kept me pushing the whole way through the book, except the ending was quite sudden. The only thing that made it barely ok for me was the fact  that the sequel and third book are already available. If I was waiting for it for months I know I would have been sooooooo mad!

In the end I'll rate this book 4 stars, because I liked it, but the ending, style, and characters lost the 5 star.

Dear my blog.

Hey,

I'm sorry I haven't been posting, I have been avoiding my review on Stealing Heaven for a really weird reason, I can't review it!

I tried to when I first finished it, but a post just didn't work out...

I would try reading it for yourself!!

Anyway, now I'm reading I,Q by Roland Smith.

Once I finish it, I can't wait to tell ya'll!
