Not to fear! The mortal instruments are here!

A lot of people have been a little sad about the fact the Mortal Instruments trilogy has ended. Therefore you won't hear about Alec, Isabella, Simon, Clary or even Jace! (It's okay put the tissue away!). But it seems like Ms.Clare is not done with her writing! In an e-mail she revealed that she might like to do a spin off with her characters.

MD: Hello Ms. Clare!

Of course I read the Mortal Instruments series (I very much enjoyed it) and I am of course saddened to know the series has ended but I would like to know, in your imagination what would happen later on in the lives of Clary and Jace? Or Isbella, Simon and Alec and Magnus?

Thanks!

CC: think, since I have not totally ruled out ever writing about any of these characters again in future, that it's better if my speculations about their possible futures stays private for now. Cassie

Fan girl screams can begin now :D

To Swoon or not to Swoon? That is the question!

I finished Swoon a little while ago I am a bit flustered by the whole book. I thought Nina did a fairly good job on the writing but it seemed a bit lacking. Parts of the book were hard to understand and it was hard to get attached to the characters because the story made most of them seem quite shallow. I also couldn't really get attached to the protagonist Dice. There wasn't much we actually got to find out about her, all I knew was that her cousin is Pen, she likes to sing, she has (possibly) black hair and she moved from New York. Relating to the characters was pretty hard I guess.

Personally it also seemed as if the author, Nina Malkin at times, became lazy with her writing and decided to skip some passages. I definitely thought the book's plot had so much potential to be great but I was left unsatisfied at the end. What did you guys think of the book and its ending? My favorite part in the book was when Sin was with Marsh's father, fighting. And he said something like ''Mofo bit me'' something close to that though. I laughed for a little while during that part :)

But that was pretty much it. I also didn't understand how Pen could also be in love with Sin. If she did, wouldn't she hold a grudge or at least fight for Sin? Not everything added up. I need more explanations! To Swoon or not to Swoon? That is the question, but I'm going to have to say Not to Swoon. The ending just...ended...without anything really big happening. And I also think that there should be an epilogue. And I actually started to hate Sin after I found out he ''Fornicated'' with Pen and then in the scene where Pen's little brothers act like sheriffs and he spanks Dice...
But on the upside, I liked the lyrics to the song :D
Roll the dice (clever)

So my fellow bloggers, the answer to this question which is vital to our life, a necessity that we cannot live without a- okay I'll just say Pass. Not to swoon. The plot was very intriguing but didn't do much for me in the end :I

The blog is taking air!

My blog is taking off, after the summer vacation actually finished I actually started updating and working on the layout. Pretty soon, I hope to have a logo to go with that banner up there *points up*
And now I'm actually feeling pretty confident about that and I really think this going to work. Keep reading the moody teenager :D thanks (that's pretty much everything I wanted to say).

Is this book worth your buck: House of night

Ever since the popular Vampire phase hit teens (some could say Twilight is to blame) vampire novels have been grossing in huge amounts of revenue. But a book that is new to some has been gaining a lot of attention from teens. The House of night.

From the publisher: The House of Night series is set in a world very much like our own, except in 16-year-old Zoey Redbird''s world, vampyres have always existed.In this first book in the series, Zoey enters the House of Night, a school where, after having undergone the Change, she will train to become an adult vampire--that is, if she makes it through the Change.Not all of those who are chosen do.It''s tough to begin a new life, away from her parents and friends, and on top of that, Zoey finds she is no average fledgling.She has been Marked as special by the vampyre Goddess, Nyx.But she is not the only fledgling at the House of Night with special powers.When she discovers that the leader of the Dark Daughters, the school''s most elite club, is misusing her Goddess-given gifts, Zoey must look deep within herself for the courage to embrace her destiny--with a little help from her new vampyre friends.

So there is the summary. There are presently a bunch of little red lines indicating Vampire has been spelled wrong, yet that's the thing that's different from the book. But unfortunately, that's the only unique thing about the book. Of course the cover looks pretty cool, but you don't buy a box of chocolates for the wrapper! The plot is very intriguing and has many new things yet the story seems to go on and on and on without anything happening! But eventually, when something does happen it's way to cliché. While reading this book you could possibly feel as if your watching a brain melting teenager drama (I am a teenager, and I am saying this. There must be a problem). Also, the characters are very one dimensional and not very developed. And it pains me to say...that it seems like the authors were trying to hard to make the ending worth while, making the writing very...poor :( I actually bought the books but as I read the latest one, Hunted. I realized that it's not that great of a book. So I decided to go read some Stephen King :D

So my friends, is this book worth your book. No way Jose! But I do recommend checking it out of your local library. Checking if you like the first couple of books, then maybe thinking about making the purchase.
Thanks for reading the moody teenager blog. And stay tuned for the next Is this book worth your buck post!

The demon's lexicon

The demon's lexicon is a fantasy book created by Sarah Rees Brennan. It puts you into a world where two brothers, Nick and Alan Ryves, try to escape magic. A term used loosely in this story. Nick and Alan are always on the move with their crazy mother who is not much of a parent. Since their father was murdered at a young age they must fend for themselves. But danger is always their shadow, evil magicians are hunting the Ryves family for a charm that keeps the mother alive. But things start falling apart for the brothers when they encounter a brother and sister searching for help. The brother, Jaimie, was marked by a demon which is a sign of death that is almost impossible to erase. Then things get worse when Alan also gets marked by a demon. The only way Nick can save his bother is to kill one of the magicians that they have been hiding from for so long. Soon after their, quest to save one another begins Nick finds that Alan has not been 100% truthful to his brother. Lie after lie Nick uncovers more about his past and more about who he really is. Or rather, what he really is.


The demon's lexicon was surely a page turner for me. Once again Simon pulse has brought out a teenage fantasy that is worth the read. Of course there were moments when the book seemed to drone on but I find that the dark humor that Nick possesses was a great way to laugh. He was honestly my favorite character, the other ones seemed to happy and ignorant to appreciate, I could really relate to him. But not everyone would like this book, it would take a certain type of person, I find. The near-end of the book was a heart pounding a shock, there is a twist that changes you're whole view of the book. But I do think that the end of the book was a bit lacking. I always want to know what happens after all is said and done. A second one should definetley be made! The ketchup has done you good Ms.Brennan! (reference to the dedication)

THREE AND A HALF stars on FIVE.***

Figures I would relate most to the demon...-_-'

The Hunger games by Suzanne Collins

Review for : The Hunger games by Suzanne Collins

I recently read the Hunger games by Suzanne Collins and it was amazing. The plot was original and very interesting. I was more than satisfied when I finished reading it. To begin, the book is about the ruins of a place that was previously known as North America where lied the nation of Panem. Panem is surrounded by twelve districts where each one contributes it’s own service. And to make sure the districts are disciplined the Capitol forces them to participate in the annual Hunger games, a fight to the death between one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and sixteen from each district.

"As close to a perfect adventure novel as I've ever read"

Rick Riordan, author of The Percy Jackson series and The 39 Clues: The Maze of Bones

If chosen you must fight to the death and if you win, you bring fame, riches and honor to you’re district। When sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen’s sister Primerose is chosen to compete she cannot bear it and volunteers in her place. Katniss regards The hunger games as a death sentence but she isn’t new to fighting for her survival. When her father died she took it upon herself to care for her mother and little sister. But will the things she has learned hunting and trading be enough to win The hunger games?
"Enthralling, imaginative and creepy"

Los Angeles Times

I found The hunger games to be a nail biting, addicting and an enthralling experience. It was simple blunt but full of mystery and action. I would recommend this book to anybody, boy or girl even those who are older. It’s a great read and I cannot wait for Catching fire which comes out in September.
