book #10

So first off the numbers are so ridiculously wrong. The last one was 16ish books in one post minus the ones I already wrote about. Also, the drop down, you've already written this, helpful thing said #7 and then #9. So either the computer is fucking up or I've fucked up. I prefer to blame the computer.

Secondly, this actually about three books, just to confuse you further. I know it's a pic of one book but it's the Evernight series, right? named after the first book. So three books. Evernight, Stargazer and Hourglass. By Claudia Grey. Grandmother dearest bought me the third one so I felt compelled to read them all again.

The first reading is SO MUCH BETTER. Especially in the first one, about half way through you feel the need to actually yell WTF??!?!?!?! YOU TOTALLY GOT ME. But in the second reading you're like... I'm such an idiot for not realising. How did I not see that? Fuck. This is technically at least my third reading of the first one, but besides the point.

This series actually shits me. The guy and the girl are hopelessly in love, living in completely separate worlds but determined to make it work. ERGH. In my opinion relationships are made out of convenience in most circumstances. You're not going to go out of your way to date someone who wants to murder you're parents. Long distance at that. Did I mention that I'm really not a romantic??

There's another book, to be released next year. The third book was a slight cliff hanger but I was too busy yelling internally "FUCKING WHAT?? THATS ACTUALLY BEYOND STUPID. WHY WOULD YOU WRITE THAT?". So yeah. Great series. Nah, I just hate the direction it took. And the main character's sappiness. Which is another way of saying I just hate the main character and the story line. Hmph.

Ok. The HOLY SHIT I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING writing style. That I am quite a fan of. I am slightly convinced that I might be the only one who didn't see it though. Which is sad but there you go. I'm going to stop repeating myself now.

3 1/2 stars! yeah cool. I'm reading Harry Potter now. It's still pretty awesome, the 50th-ish time. I got called Harry on the train by some lads who hit on me and then tried to convince me to read the sports news in the paper instead. They said some other terrifying stuff but it shouldn't really be repeated. Ever. Oh, the exciting life I lead...

PS technically the author has some other name. Claudia Grey isn't her real name. My question is: If you went to the effort of putting a fake name on the cover of your book, would you tell everyone your real name at the end of the book? I'd think not.
