Review: Fallen by Lauren Kate

Image
(Copy purchased by me) Summary from goodreads: "Seventeen-Year-Old Luce is a new student at Sword & Cross, an unwelcoming boarding/reform school in Savannah, Georgia. Luce’s boyfriend died under suspicious circumstances, and now she carries the guilt over his death with her as she navigates the unfriendly halls at Sword & Cross, where every student seems to have an unpleasant—even evil—history. It’s only when she sees Daniel, a gorgeous fellow student, that Luce feels there’s a reason to be here—though she doesn’t know what it is. And Daniel’s frosty cold demeanor toward her? It’s really a protective device that he’s used again . . . and again. For Daniel is a fallen angel, doomed to fall in love with the same girl every 17 years . . . and watch her die. And Luce is a fellow immortal, cursed to be reincarnated again and again as a mortal girl who has no idea of who she really is." My review: **** = 4 stars (spoiler free!) First off I must say I love the cover. ...

A little bit of everything!

Hey guys! I'm still here, just busy working and trying to figure out what's going on with college in the fall. I have been doing so much yet I feel like i've done nothing these past couple of days, where does the time go?! Anyways, don't forget to check out my contest page for my two current contests, and if I reach 100 followers I will be hosting yet another! Five more to go! On a side note, I traded in some textbooks on Amazon and I got the money in my account yesterday so of course I bought some new books. I can not wait, and to get free shipping(otherwise it would have costed 60 bucks) I have to wait like forever but i'll take it! They won't even ship out until 25th, but I have some other new books that I got from Barnes and Noble last week to hold me over. I'm currently reading Firespell and Beautiful Creatures. Yes both at the same time, i'm weird like that. Here's what I ordered: Fallen The Dark Divine - I CANNOT wait to read this, oh ...

I swear i'm still here!

Don't worry my oh so loyal followers! I haven't forgotten ye! I'm watching Robin Hood, the BBC one, it's quite good. That will explain my odd sense of language use. But I digress, there's less than a day to enter my contest . 16 more followers until a second place winner gets to go home with a brand spanking new book! *crowd explodes with cheers* And even if I don't hit 100, the winner of the contest still gets to pick out 2 books. Moving on to other schtuff ....(I promise i'm not an idiot, I know that's not how you spell "stuff" but that's how I said it when I was typing so that's how it got spelled! :) I haven't read anything because I am still anxiously awaiting new books in the mail, and nothing seems good enough to read right at this moment because I have my mind stuck on other books. I have put off reading many books from the latter half of 2009 that I am really starting to want to read right about.... now. Like The Dark D...

It's almost over!

Tomorrow is the first of my three finals. After Wednesday, I will officially be done with school(for this degree). Evenutally I will go back to school but to think having one degree down is a relief. I actually like school, well certain classes. Anyways, I have a lot of studying to do for the next three days so if you notice my absence please don't be alarmed. I will be returning. I will try to post at least once a day since the holidays are upon us and there are some things coming up I want to talk about. Enough about school, lets talk about books! My TBR list keeps growing and my read pile isn't going anywhere.... I haven't really been in the mood to read anything on my shelf except for ones i've already read. All the books I really want to read, I don't have. With Christmas right around the corner i'm hoping to get lots of new stuff, and when I say stuff I mean books. I'm excited. Here's are some books I want to read or am looking forward to rea...
