Song of the Lioness
Well, I’ve finished the entire quartet. I did make Joce tell me some stuff when she thought I wasn’t going to finish the series. Hah, I was undecided at that point but then I thought I might as well finish it. I WAS 50% of the way through. I preferred book two to all the other books in the series. Average rating for the series as a whole is a 3. The last book in the quartet put me at...

100 Book Challenge: Book 75 Song of the Lioness: Alanna: The First Adventure by Tamora Pierce
Both Josephine and Jess bugged me to read Tamora Pierce’s series so here I am.
I gave it a 3/5. That’s my pretty default rating. Liked it enough, I guess. To continue, at least :b. I don’t really have much of an opinion on the series yet. So we’ll see :).
Book 76 is In the...

Warriors of Ankh - Samantha Young
It’s been a while since I’ve been obsessed with a story - and suffering withdrawals cause of it.
And Warriors of Ankh by Samantha Young has done just that. I feel so lost and so incomplete :(. Emotionally, of course.
It’s hard to find stories that will pull you in so much that you wish you were a part of their world.
I’ve been rereading the entire trilogy (since...
“You know what the issue is with this world? Everyone wants some magical solution...”

Me Day
I feel like I need a complete ME week - without talking to anybody and just be in recluse. It won’t happen because a week is too long and there’s bound to be news that’ll require social interaction.
It’s probably the many withdrawals and symptoms of coming back from a Cali trip longer than 1 night. Not to mention I’m just also sick. Warriors of Ankh withdrawals....

100 book challenge: Spy Glass - Maria Snyder BOOK...
The last book of the two series I’ve been reading on. Study and Glass. They’ll stick with me for awhile since there’s been a lot of their world that’s been with me.
Book 68/100:
Spy Glass by Maria V. Snyder
Between the three books in the Glass series, I liked this the least. It’s probably the issue she had to deal with, but yeah, I definitely preferred the...

100 book challenge: Magic Study - Maria Snyder...
I read the Study & Glass series all weirdly, yes. Oh well. It happens.. to odd ones, keke. Study is the series and Glass is the spin-off. I read it like so:
Poison Study (S1)
Storm Glass (G1)
Sea Glass (G2)
Magic Study (S2)
Then, I’ll do Fire Study (S3) and then I’ll finish it with Spy Glass (G3).

Moment of Lulz
K: You mean I’m not omnipotent?
B: You’re not even semipotent.
K: Is that even a word?
A: He probably meant you’re impotent.

Cinna: I'm betting on the girl on fire.
Peeta: Yeah. She's a sharpshooter.
Gale: You go, Catnip.
Nora: I'm betting on my sexgod boyfriend.
Patch: How much you wanna bet?
Nora: My virginity.
Johanna: What?
Coach: What?
Cato: What.
Prim: I think she said five dollars.
Nora: Yeah. Totally. Five dollars it is.
Patch: I don't want your money, Angel.
Peeta: Angels have wings. Real or not real?
Katniss: Real.
Peeta: You know, if I could grow wings, I could fly. Only, human can't grow wings.
Katniss: Because humans don't need them to survive.
Peeta: Mockingjays do.
Patch: Um, excuse me, guys. I was talking...
Peeniss: Oh, sorry.
Patch: As I was saying, I don't want your money. I want—
Jesse: you and your beautiful soul. ♫

The Husher Games
Finnick: I'm sexy and you know it.
Marcie: No. I'm the sexiest human alive.
Scott: Oh, please. Have seen how perfect my body is? And you're not even human. You're a purebred—
Peeta: Did someone say bread?
Katniss: No, Peeta. He said 'purebred', not 'bread'. I'd like some of your cheese buns, though.
Marcie: Me, too. You can put your buns in my oven anytime.
Gale: No, Katniss! Drop your bow and arrow!
Marcie: What did I do?
Johanna: Just shut that hole in your face, brainless.
Finnick: Calm down, Katniss. Here, tie some knots. Oh, I almost forgot, want a sugar cube?
Vee: Me! I'd like some sugar cubes. That would go perfectly well for my diet. Did you know that sugar cubes are like, fat free?
Nora: Is there even a fat free sugar cube?
Vee: I don't know. Anyway, the first three letters in the word diet should tell you what I want it to do.
Haymitch: No. Stay alive.
Peeta: Oh, no worries, Vee. There's a fat free cake. I'll bake you one. I'll even do the frosting.
Patch: Okay. This is nonsense. Let's go play some pool. Come on, Angel.

Book 64/100: Glass: Storm Glass - Maria Snyder
I had checked this book out from the library before I got my Kindle back, but so far I’ve been reading between the two sources, haha. I don’t know why. So far I like it enough that I’ll be keeping it on my Kindle.. and my Kindle is most useful when I need to bookmark something that stood out to me or if I wanted to highlight some...

You know all the people who bitch about Kindles because they hate technology? Why do those people have tumblrs? Aren’t tumblrs possible because of technology? Shouldn’t they hate their tumblr?
and their lovely gadgets such as phones and stuff. hell, they might as well go caveman.

100 book challenge: Books 61-63
Dang, these are all series. That who knows if I’ll finish. I’ll probably read the next book in the Lux series, though. Shadows was just a prequel - a novella. But I didn’t really care for it much. So I shall judge on the official first book of the series. It IS about two different couples, albeit related and connected.
Book 61: Lux: Shadows - Jennifer Armentrout
