did you guys know that when you are in bed at night time, you can turn on a lamp, put a really soft blanket around your shoulders and read your book?? and sometimes it will rain??? did you know that???? the wonders of this life do not cease!

[snowflakesbooklr]

no offense but reading is literally the cure to brain rot and there’s no work around to reading books

[snowflakesbooklr]

The books are Pride and Prejudice (I have one tab at "not handsome enough to tempt". That's all the annotations in there) and The Hobbit (and the LOTR series to do next)

I haven't really annotated books before (I grew up thinking it's a crime to even use a pencil in books)

I have two of my favourite books and I'd love to annotate them,, can anyone help tell me what I should look out for and annotate?

Wings of Starlight - Allison Shaft

My rating - 5 stars

This book was beautifully written from start to finish. Obviously the nostalgia that's tied to me having watched the movies as a kid also plays a big part in my enjoyment of the book. The showcasing of forbidden romance, of reading what happened to the couple from opposite sides of the border (tinkerbell - secret of the wings) was impeccable. I don't want to post any spoilers because I feel this book is an amazing read and I'd like everyone to experience it on their own, so my review is obviously going to be pretty short. I'll just let you know that I definitely cried while reading this, and it was for more than one reason.

Thinking about the Holmes story where a blind girl goes to him and is like "My fiancé is missing and he kept telling me the week leading up to his disappearance that he would always love me and come back for me,were anything to happen so I think he knew he was in trouble and I love him so much and I'm going to wait for him but I'd like to find him faster,ya know?" And Holmes figures out that it was this girl's parents to scam her out of money she was owed from an estate which she gave to them because she was still living at home,which she wouldn't be if she ever married,so her step father PRETENDED TO DATE HER for MONTHS to keep her from ever getting engaged to a real person and when Holmes finds out he confronts this man and this man is like "Well,you caught me! But it wasn't illegal:) so:)" and Holmes is like "No,but it was sickening and cruel and if she had a brother or good male friend he should post you up and whip you but she doesn't." And the man is like "No,she doesn't." And does the Victorian version of sticking his tongue out and Holmes is like "Well,I guess I'll do then!" And HE PULLS OUT HIS HUNTING WHIP.

Me as I start reading Divine Rivals AFTER Ruthless Vows

[snowflakesbooklr]

I read the whole book, Divine Rivals, then naturally I always tell someone about it and we freaking out over a great book together.

I have no idea what the hell shesbtalking about, and I wonder if I hallucinated reading the book. How do I not remember anything of that?

Anyways. She starts giving me a summary of the second part of the duology. And I am filled with utter, bone chilling horror. *THAT* is the book i read!!!!

J. R. R. Tolkien: no, my books aren't about the war I experienced. It's just a story

J. R. R. Tolkien's works: you cannot go home, war ends entire bloodlines, you are mourning the death of your brother alone, you dug into the earth and permanently scored the land, you cannot explain what you have been through, you cannot go home, "that wound will never fully heal. He will carry it the rest of his life", leaving the women behind does not save them, the young die first, you cannot go home, the parent will bury their child, you have lost the wives and you will never connect with them again, "how shall any tower withstand such numbers and such reckless hate?", you are not the same, you cannot go home, you can never go home, your father will only side with those he sees as worthy bloodlines and you cannot change his mind, it is more meaningful Not to kill, sometimes your sacrifice accomplishes nothing, you cannot go home

I thought it would be a good idea to continue reading in the car and now this is me at lunch with my family

my sister just started The Lost Hero and asked me "who the fuck is Jason and why can't he remember anything?"

Some of my rants while reading Reckless

What do you mean the King never wanted Kitt to be the king? He's the fucking king, he can change the heir if he wants. Everyone was okay with him getting rid of half the population, but when it comes to his sons he suddenly had no choice?

And Kitt STILL isn't ready to be king? What has he been learning and training for all these years??? How to be an asshole?

Why the hell is her lips already blue if she's been drawing for all of TWO FUCKING SECONDS? Cmon Lauren. And she's drowning but doesn't flail or even attempt to stay afloat? But the ahole who's after her starts drowning and she magically learns how to dive and swim? God give me strength to deal with this.

"I'll dance for us both" "I'll swim for us both" "I'll stain my soul enough for both of us" bitch you are literally dragging her to her DEATH SENTENCE

Yes Kai, what an amazing idea. Let's wait until we are on the border of the country to decide you love her enough to let her go. That would've been helpful FIFTY FUCKING CHAPTERS AGO. Of course you guys are going to be caught, what the hell were you expecting???

Kitt you are so wise (sarcastic). Yes, when your cousin came and told you it's time to step up and do your kingly duties, they 100 percent meant you should marry the girl you sent your brother to kill. Obviously. She couldn't have meant that you should, i dunno, lead the country?

Real talk, did all of Kais men and the resistance die because you were tired of writing anything other than forced banter? "I hate you" "I love you" "don't look at me like this" "I'm jealous of your secret dead baby sister" it makes me nauseous

Reckless - Lauren Roberts

My rating: .5 stars

From the first page, the format of the family tree is very confusing.

The plot is all over the place, and simultaneously going nowhere. I had some hope this would be better than Powerless, but somehow it got worse. It stills tells us what happens, instead of showing it.

What happened to the characters from book 1? Jax got dropped, he's mentioned twice in the entire book. And Blair won the trials, now what? It's all irrelevant??

Kai needs to make up his mind. You cannot love someone as much as he says and also want to drag her to her death. Kitt is just annoying to me.

I genuinely believed anyone could be a writer until i read this book, and now I appreciate good books that much more.

This book was sadly a disappointment from start to finish. There were so many love confessions and fights along the way, just for her to become the kings bride?

I think Lauren needs to hire an editor, a GOOD one. Maybe this book is an acceptable first draft but it's definitely not fit to be published. I volunteer as her editor and if the next book is like this or worse somehow, I will do the world a favour and burn it.
