Ruins Review

Ruins is the third and final installment in the Partials Sequence by Dan Wells. The genres are sci-fi and dystopian.

"Kira, Samm, and Marcus fight to prevent a final war between Partials and humans in the gripping final installment in the Partials Sequence, a series that combines the thrilling action ofThe Hunger Games with the provocative themes of Blade Runnerand The Stand.

There is no avoiding it—the war to decide the fate of both humans and Partials is at hand. Both sides hold in their possession a weapon that could destroy the other, and Kira Walker has precious little time to prevent that from happening. She has one chance to save both species and the world with them, but it will only come at great personal cost."~Goodreads

First of all, I can't believe I'm done with the series. Wow. It was a wonderful last book. Sure, there is a short story but it's not the same as a 400 page book.(Why is it called a sequence when it's basically a trilogy?)

While there are some parts of the book that had happened differently, at the same time I like the way they turned out. Some of the things were still easy to guess, but that's okay since it wasn't the whole book. My otp happened which I was so excited about because I spent the whole first book wanting to ship them. I like the other person more as a best friend. I know this is really bad but I'm actually glad one character died. S/he wasn't my favorite-- far from it actually-- but I didn't despise them either.

I almost would like to know what happens after the ending just to answer some of my questions, but at least my imagination will get to work. And I have  question I want a character to answer: WHY? Since what they did made only some sense.

My favorite quote paraphrased because I already returned Ruins- If you want to survive in this world you need to stop asking why we work together and just start doing it.

Would I recommend this series? Yes, yes, and yes. I loved it that much.

The Sword of Summer Review

Image
The Sword of Summer  is the first book in the Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard series, written by Rick Riordan. The genre is mythology. "Magnus Chase has always been a troubled kid. Since his mother’s mysterious death, he’s lived alone on the streets of Boston, surviving by his wits, keeping one step ahead of the police and the truant officers. One day, he’s tracked down by a man he’s never met—a man his mother claimed was dangerous. The man tells him an impossible secret: Magnus is the son of a Norse god. The Viking myths are true. The gods of Asgard are preparing for war. Trolls, giants and worse monsters are stirring for doomsday. To prevent Ragnarok, Magnus must search the Nine Worlds for a weapon that has been lost for thousands of years. When an attack by fire giants forces him to choose between his own safety and the lives of hundreds of innocents, Magnus makes a fatal decision. Sometimes, the only way to start a new life is to die . . ."~ Goodreads As

Harry Potter Book Tag

Today I'm going to be doing the Harry Potter Book Tag. I love the series and this tag is amazing. The spell images were created by Beatrice over at Dreamland Book Blog . Without further ado, let's get started. I would personally like to rewrite the ending to Uncle Tom's Cabin . It's not my favorite book, though some of Stowe's arguments were interesting. But I didn't like how one of the events happened at the end; it seemed unrealistic. So many. Percy Jackson for  starters. However, the prize for this one is going to Maze of Bones . I was initially against reading the series, but then I read the first book. From then on I flew threw the first two series and read several of the other books as well. Happy memories. From: Percy Jackson: Camp Half-Blood Confidential. It's out already, but I really would like to have it so I can read it. (Hopefully there's some jokes.) I'm going to use the word killer in the sense it means awesome.

Wordy Wednesday (#6)

Wordy Wednesday is a meme that focuses on expanding vocabulary for aspiring writers or even finding out new words. All that is required is coming up with a word and its definition! My word for this week is opprobrium. Opprobrium - something that brings disgrace                        contempt or reproach (Merriam-Webster) Let's take the quote I used from Mulan in one of my previous memes and replace the word dishonor. Opprobrium on you! Opprobrium on your cow! This will forever be one of the best quotes. If you participate make sure to leave a link down below so I can check your post out.
