Review: Cress

Cress Cress by Marissa Meyer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Edit: I made some Lunar Chronicles fan art that you can see at the bottom of this review! :)

Me upon finishing this book:

Oh yes.

This is a five star all right.

Wowwww so much stuff happened in this book like wooaahh. Since it took me a while to read this, (because of school and work, not because it wasn't amaze) thinking back on what happened at the beginning feels like sooooooo long ago. Like, whoa, that happened? Like, recently? Welp.

Anyway, WHAT ARE ALL THE GREAT THINGS YOU WANT IN A GOOD BOOK? Action? Check. Awesome story line? Check. Funny dialogue? Check. Amazing and well developed characters? Check. A beautiful cover? Check. What ever else I can't think of? Check. Check. Check. and Check. What more is there to say? Any faults I found? Well since Wolf is my bae it was pretty shit that he was being so mopey for a great part of the book, but by the end he was less emo, so that resolved itself a bit.

BUT OH MY GOD. This might be a spoiler so lemme just slap on a quick spoilery tag: (view spoiler) I am #excite for Winter! Before finishing this book I admit I wasn't really that excited for Winter. I know, I suck. I was just reaally excited for Fairest to come out. Gotta know all that backstory NAM SAYIN?

So yeah, can't wait for Winter or Fairest. Super glad we're getting two books this year. :D Or would it be a book and a half, because I don't know if Fairest counts as a whole book? Who knows? Who cares? BRING ON THE LUNAR CHRONICLES!!!


Here's some fan art I made! ❤ ❤ ❤

Review: 寄宿学校のジュリエット(3)

寄宿学校のジュリエット(3) by 金田陽介 My rating: 5 of 5 stars Brb, crying. Not actually, though. Like, I didn’t shed any actual tears or even get close to it, it’s just that this series… is so good . The romance between Romeo and Juliet is still weirdly innocent, but the actual story is so engrossing and entertaining. It also seems like almost literally every single character is complex and interesting and multi-layered. (Only the background characters like Maru’s lackeys are undeveloped, but honestly they really don’t need any development anyway.) The relationships between characters keep getting more and more complex, and the situations that the characters have to deal with are also super juicy. This is such an addicting series. My initial problem with Romeo and Juliet’s relationship was that it seemed pretty unhealthy and one-sided to me. Later, I found it very weird how sexually immature they both are, and how un-intimate their relationship is. What is interest...

Review: Bitter Witness: Otto Dix and the Great War

Bitter Witness: Otto Dix and the Great War by Linda F. McGreevy My rating: 0 of 5 stars This is a very unique and interesting academic text. There are no other examinations of the German artist Otto Dix, his war experience, and his war-related art that are quite as in-depth as this one, while also covering a wide range of different aspects and angles of not only the artist's story, but also the Great War's. I used this as a source for a University research essay I wrote on the effects of Dix's war experience on the creation and effects of his painting Skat Players (1920). I was very late in starting my research so I unfortunately had to stick to only reading the information I could use for my own examination, rather than being able to devour this book in its entirety. However, the library requires this book be returned at the end of January of next year, so I have some time now to actually finish this book since the semester has finished...

Review: Spells & Sleeping Bags

Spells & Sleeping Bags by Sarah Mlynowski My rating: 3 of 5 stars This book was infuriating. Miri was super annoying during book 2, but she started this book off with some funny burns toward Rachel which made me think maybe she would be better in this book. Ha. No. She wasn’t. Miri. Oh Miri Miri Miri. So dumb. And it was annoying how it seemed like she didn’t even learn anything from the last book. She’s still all about saving the world and whatnot and being a dumbass. And she talked about poofing up money to help her help people, which is extremely illogical because she knows that poofing up money means she’s stealing money from somewhere else. Way to “help” out the world you fucking idiot. For the majority of this book I reckon she was under some kind of “emotion amplifying” spell but honestly that’s no excuse since she’s still her dumbass self. (view spoiler) [Her figuring out that Fake Rachel wasn’t real Rachel was nice and all but felt a bit...
