April Favorites
Hi guys! Here are the things I loved this month. It's a short list, consisting of books I consider as my summer reads, music, and a game app. Cheers!
BOOKS
THIS BOOK. THIS BOOK. OMFG THIS BOOK. I was really excited when I finally got a copy of this book because I absolutely love The Infernal Devices. Clockwork Princess is the last book of the TID trilogy and I must say, Cassandra Clare did a fantastic job in writing and ending this series. I loved how everything fell into place, loved the twists and surprises, absolutely loved all Will/Tessa scenes (#TeamWill forever), loved the new characters; everything was just mind blowing.
I read Cara Lynn Shultz' novels, Spellbound and Spellcaster, right after I finished Clockwork Angel. Not gonna lie, the covers got me (plus the fact that these books have high ratings in goodreads.com). I'm glad I read these. These books remind me of the Hex Hall series, The Immortals series, Blue Bloods, and Fallen. The characters are funny, the time and settings are modern, the magic is hauntingly beautiful. If you're looking for a modern YA book with a hint of antique enchantment, you better read these ASAP.
I just finished Through the Ever Night last Saturday and the first thought I had was "What took me so long to read these books? These are so good!". When I started Under the Never Sky, it reminded me slightly of Ally Condie's Matched. When I read further, it reminded me of Matched and The Hunger Games, except there's no competition whatsoever, just pure survival in the wild. I liked how the books showed both the main characters' point-of-views. Some characters are easy to love, some easy to hate. The romance part was just right; it made me giggly and smiley but it was not at all cheesy and overwhelming. Ugh, I seriously can't wait for Into the Still Blue!! But for now, I'll be reading Roar and Liv, an Under the Never Sky novella.
MUSIC
FALL OUT BOY IS BAAAAAAACK!!!! Their new album is the b.o.m.b. 11 tracks of pure FOB awesomeness. My most played tracks are Alone Together, Where Did the Party Go, Rat A Tat (ft. Courtney Love), and Just One Yesterday (ft. Foxes). Loved hearing Patrick Stump's voice again.
GAME
If you're looking for a game with zombies and shooting, this game is for you. I'm addicted! Basically, you have to shoot zombies in front of your selected survivor while keeping the zombies behind you from catching up. This game makes me nervous, makes me jump, makes me scream, makes me think if I can survive a zombie apocalypse. At first, probably not. Now, maybe. Give me a crossbow maybe? Or a chainsaw? ;)
