What Elements Matter in a Book?

January 23, 2014

There are some elements in books that are so important to me, they form the foundation of whether or not I enjoy reading a particular book.

GOLDEN by Jessi Kirby

January 22, 2014

GOLDEN by Jessi KirbyGolden left me a little torn. On one hand, I really enjoyed it but on the other, it left me feeling unmoved. The prose was beautiful. The introspectiveness of it pulled me right in when I opened the book and read the first few pages.

DARK STAR (The Rosie Black Chronicles #3) by Lara Morgan

January 20, 2014

DARK STAR (The Rosie Black Chronicles #3) by Lara MorganAfter I was done reading Dark Star, I was pretty satisfied with how the trilogy ended. While I didn’t yearn for another book to extend the series, I didn’t wish for less either. Three books for this trilogy was the perfect number to build up the story and to wrap it up in the end.

Retrospect #3: January 19th

January 19, 2014

I dip-dyed my hair! Successfully. Myself! Hah. I first dip-dyed my virgin hair last month with the help of my sister but I didn’t buy a strong enough bleach, so my hair wasn’t light enough for the colour to show all that much.

EQUINOX (The Rosie Black Chronicles #2) by Lara Morgan

January 18, 2014

EQUINOX (The Rosie Black Chronicles #2) by Lara MorganEquinox continues right there where Genesis left off. True to all the twists and turns encountered in the first book of the trilogy, this book serves up many surprises. In the same vain, it was also confusing. Once again, questions spring to mind about who belongs to Helios, who belongs to the Senate and who is following Riley. With all the double crossing and switching sides business, I do recommend reading the books one after the other instead of waiting it out and forgetting about the plot altogether.
