Chaos rises by Melinda Brasher

(4/5) stars 

for summary click here






*i received a copy from the author for an honest review* 

okay so i just woke up my guilty pleasure milk tea in hand and i open my email and what do i find an author contacted me...and then i found out that i didn't contacted her on blog tour she's the one who did and i'm like *victory dance*...and then i have to replay so i try to lose the fangirl mode to seem more sophisticated.
mrs. malinda was nice enough to  contact me and send me a copy and she even complimented my blog review which means so much to me!

are you bored out of your mind yet?....
okay on to the review shall we?

Chaos rises is a quick read companion novel to Far-Knowing (summary here

so i start reading.
.
.

"oh this is interesting!"
.
.
..
.
.
.
.

.

The end.


"what?!"














"no!"
"no you're not over yet, no"
"no you can't be over not so soon !"
"but..but..i wanna know more!"

*5 mins after processing that it really is over* 



i never thought that i would feel connected to the characters in a 10 pages quick read but Chaos rises proved me wrong. 

this book is not something i would have read but lately all i want is to vary my genres a bit so this book came at the right time and it didn't disappoint

i really like this book and Far-knowing is defiantly going on my to-read list.


Question of the day :

do you read or write short stories?

Marcelo in the real world by Francisco X. stork

(5/5) stars 

my first hard cover book :')

click here for the book's summary.


you know those books that when you're reading you don't hear a thing around you ? those books that you just know you gonna love. you know what you'll rate it and what you'll say after words from the first 50 pages.

this is the kind of thing that happened to me in this book

Okay so let me start by saying : 

why the HELL is this book not famous ??!



nothing annoys me more than finishing a book and loving it and then open good reads and see how under ratted it is it's so dis pointing ! this book is just plain perfect all the characters are so real and even the ones that only showed up once you feel like you know everything about them.


So Marcelo is the most adorable boy i have ever SEEN ! 

“Boy, you really break things down, don't you?''

"Some say it is an illness.''(< -Marcelo)

''We should all be so ill.” 


first the way he talks about him self in the third person i found really adorable idk exactly why but i loved it. some books try to make a character innocent and end up making a: clumsy , stupid , dork needing a wake up slap across the face....but Marcelo however is the exact opposite he's : the nicest , most adorable person ever..that makes you feel like slapping yourself because you're should be as kind as him...

"then why with Marcelo?" -Marcelo

"I don't know. Do you always ask so many questions? it just seems okay, that's all" -jasmine 

"maybe Jasmine doesn't see Marcelo as a man." -Marcelo


I just love reading about illnesses and conditions that idk about  it's like seeing a world through someone else's eyes.

i really recommend this book and I hate how underrated it is i never read any books about autism before so that was a great as a first book about the subject. 

i can totally see my self rereading this book.


“The right note sounds right and the wrong note sounds 

wrong.” 



this review is way shorter then i planned but when i love a book so much i end up not knowing what to say to describe how much i love it and i end up with a short review 
when you find a short review it doesn't mean i don't love it!

see you soon :3 !


Question of the day:

what would you do if you knew someone just like Marcelo in real life?

Water for elephants by sara gruen



(5/5) stars 

the book's summary




so my information about circus are very limited as the last time i actually went was when i was 5 years old and i don't remember a thing. so all my information where based on movies (if u count dumbo as a source of info.)...and water for elephants changed that completely.


to be honest at first the book wasn't the  grab-it-every-chance-i-get kind of book because all i said was "i won't like this book" until i actually believed it but after a while i felt my self liking the book and it's like i'm actually living with them. you know those movies that when they are scared you're scared ,when they're screaming you scream inside (or in my case outside) ? will that what water for elephants did. 


all i thought about when i thought about the circus is that it's such an easy job u get money for doing something you love which isn't even tiring i didn't know the hardship that they face. and that apparently no job is easy in this world 


i really loved this book all the characters are so real and it's actually my second book with a boy as the protagonist and i loved this one more. i like seeing the view point of a boy (even if the author is actually a girl)


i really recommend this book to anyone i was actually looking and trying to vary the genres that i read a bit and water for elephants didn't disappoint...so yeah go pick it up and don't go the easy way and watch the movie every bookaholic knows that the movie is never as good as the book......i actually became interested in elephants too


and here's magic by cold play because it always reminds me of the book !




Question of the day:
have you read this book ? what do you think about the movie adaption?
