My reading lately

I have posted a new poem before this post of my review! I said I would tell about the books and movies I watch and here we go!

I'll start with the books I've read so far this year.  I read Karen Moning's Fever series, and I must say out of all the hype I heard about it, I wasn't a big fan! I give it about a 2.5 out of 5.  Why you may ask? Because I believe the characters could of been more involved, and it felt she tried to drag it out, so make a longer series.  Instead making each book a bit smaller and more entertaining.  I did like the unique way of adding the Irish folklore in it, but it could of been done a lot better.  It just seemed like she tried to hard.  Plus her main character I thought she made way to stupid, to the point I skimmed over some of the chapters because I couldn't stand the stupidity of the main character. 

After reading all five of those I read Stephen King's The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon.  That was a 4 out of 5.  I liked the whole story of the girl lost and how she begins to lose her mind but stays with it.  I also liked the whole creepy feeling the book gave me.  But then near the end it makes you wonder what was really there, or if it was all in her head?  It was a good book, I think you guys will enjoy it!

Then I've read Dan Simmon's Children of the Night and OMG! A fricken 10 of a book! I loved everything about it! The whole original story line tied into Romanian history, and with a whole new twist on the vampire thing.  OMG what a awesome book! Plus you end up loving the characters, and I actually read this book slower then most cause I didn't want it to end.  And Dan Simmons I think could give Stephen King a run for his money, because when he is describing things, it doesn't feel dragged out.  That may be because he doesn't try so hard to put a picture in your head.  Instead it's like reading a picture, or watching a movie.  Just an awesome book all around. 

I have read a lot of books lately and some I cannot remember the titles unfortunately :/ I'm sorry guys, but I will write them down and post them as I read.  Maybe soon I'll be writing about movies as well.  Idk yet, movies I don't think count as an articulate form.  I shall post again soon! Enjoy my other blogs as well :)
