A Big Thank You!

Hello people of the blogging world!

Since I started this blog in May 2011 it hasn't been all that good but recently I applied to receive an ARC of Onyx by Jennifer L. Armentrout (Brilliant Author) and I was received a few emails which, I think, looked hopeful but most importantly, I got an email from Caitlin of The Cait Files who gave me many tips on how to make my blog better and they have really helped and I am prepared to start book blogging completely from the 1st of March which is World Book Day! I will reblog all of my reviews and post more reviews and join in with "In My Mailbox", "Waiting On Wednesday", "Feature & Follow", "TGIF at GReads" and some bloghops hosted by "I Am a Reader Not a Writer". I have to thank her so much and direct all of you to her blog using the button on my sidebar!! I promise you you better blogging from here on out!!

Love,

Telling a Musical Story

Hello people who are alive and awake,

My sister, Aoife, recently showed me this band, Bright Eyes. I have listened to several of their songs and they are really, really good!! It takes a few songs to get used to the singer's voice, in my opinion, but once you do it's great. One of my favourites is Bowl of Oranges.

Waiting on Wednesday

Sorry that this is late guys!!!

Waiting on Wednesday for 15/02/12

The Immortal Rules (Blood of Eden #1) by Julie Kagawa, author of The Iron Fey


Blurb:

You will kill. The only question is when. 

In the dark days since the insidious Red Lung virus decimated the human population, vampires have risen to rule the crumbling cities and suburbs. Uncontested Princes hold sway over diminished ranks of humans: their "pets." In exchange for their labor, loyalty and of course, their blood, these pets are registered, given food and shelter, permitted to survive. 

Unregistered humans cling to fringes, scavenging for survival. Allison Sekemoto and her fellow Unregistereds are hunted, not only by vampires, but by rabids, the unholy result of Red Lung-infected vampires feeding on unwary humans. One night, Allie is attacked by a pack of rabids, saved by an unlikely hero...and turned vampire. 

Uncomfortable in her undead skin, Allie falls in with a ragtag crew of humans seeking a cure, or cures: for Rabidism and for Vampirism. She's passing for human...for now. But the hunger is growing and will not be denied. Not for friendship—not even for love.


I'm really looking forward to this book as it is by one of my favourite authors, Julie Kagawa. She wrote The Iron Fey Series. They were brilliant!!

Love,

Mid-Term

Hello old chaps!

Dreadfully sorry that I haven't written in a while! My group won a dance competition today! With Thriller, LOTS of fun!! Well away from that average everyday stuff! Have any of you seen the new Hunger Games Trailer?? It's absolutely brilliant. Well done to Jennifer Laurence for playing Katniss so well!! Well, in my opinion! Here it is:


Brilliantly done. I think this might end up being one of the best book to film adaptation in a long time. A few other good book to film adaptation would be I Am Number Four (the book is by Pittacus Lore).

In other news I am hoping to start a new blog. A book blog. I haven't a clue what to call it yet. Let me know your suggestions in the comment section below. Thanks a lot guys!! And I  know that I haven't got that many readers but I still talk as if there are millions of you! I'm not strange I just think that no matter what the audience, the performance or writing should be the same. Also I have a week off school (Mid-Term) and therefore I will be posting more!! Have fun! And please let me know what you think of the new blog! It still needs a name!! My sister should also be helping, she is extremely witty so she should be a big help!! Thanks Aoife!!!!!

OVER 1000 PAGE VIEWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

People of earth, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a teenage, Irish girl who lives in a town of 20000 people. But over this blog I have reached 1000 people! That's 5% of my town!! That's a lot if you don't think anyone would even think to read your writing. It means a lot. My sister has been a big support to me. Thank you to all who have read this, told someone about it or just thought "Hey, that makes a little bit of sense! She's not insane!" when they read it (This is for people who know me personally and had no idea why I started this.) I will post a post that will tell you all and hopefully more exactly why I did start this blog. What could of possessed me? Demons, ghosts, evil spirits, computers overtaking the world? I have no idea so when you read it next week you'll only know about 5 minutes after I will. Again thank you so much!!!!!!!!!! I actually can't believe it!!!!! I'm gonna stop now. After this: YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Love,
