Book Review: Paranormalcy by Kiersten White

Paranormalcy (Paranormalcy, #1)Evie’s always thought of herself as a normal teenager, even though she works for the International Paranormal Containment Agency, her ex-boyfriend is a faerie, she’s falling for a shape-shifter, and she’s the only person who can see through paranormals’ glamours.
But Evie’s about to realize that she may very well be at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising destruction to all paranormal creatures.
So much for normal. - from Goodreads.com

There was so much about this novel that I loved. I loved the characters, the world that Kiersten White has created, and the writing style. Basically, everything about it was awesome.

First, I loved Evie. I knew from the first chapter that I would really enjoy reading about her. Her voice was just how you'd imagine a teenager would write a book, and I couldn't stop reading. She was strong and independent,  and the kind of character you could quite happily be best friends with. She's everything that you would want a teenager to be, sarcastic, funny, and just down right likeable.

The book was action-packed and full of suspense, keeping you turning pages and always on the edge of your seat. The emotions of the characters were easy to feel, and you couldn't help but feel their pain, or their happiness. The book was just a fun, original story, and I loved it. I recommend it to everyone!

I give it 5 feet!

  1. Hi Bella, Happy New Year!
    I'm so glad you liked PARANORMALCY too! And wouldn't Evie be a great real-life friend? If nothing else, maybe she'd let us borrow that pink dress of hers :D

Book Blogger Hop #4

It's that time again, for the Book Blogger Hop, hosted by Jennifer at Crazy For Books! It gives bloggers a chance to hop around and find some awesome new blogs to follow! I frequently find new books that I need to read, and it's a great way to make new friends! Click the link above to sign up! =] Where is your favourite place to read? Curled up on the sofa, in bed, in the garden? My answer: My favourite place to read is in the corner of our corner sofa in the living room, when my brother is playing the Xbox, because then, I can block out the sounds of him blowing things up and just get lost in a book. I can't read there though if the TV's on, as I'll just end up watching the programme instead! I also like reading in bed, but sometimes I'll find myself drifting off, so I don't read there very often!

Book Review: The Scorpio Races by Maggie Stiefvater

Title:  The Scorpio Races  Author:  Maggie Stiefvater Series:  Standalone Pages:  404 Publisher:  Scholastic Date of Publication:  25th October 2011 Source:  Publisher* Synopsis from Goodreads: It happens at the start of every November: the Scorpio Races. Riders attempt to keep hold of their water horses long enough to make it to the finish line. Some riders live. Others die. At age nineteen, Sean Kendrick is the returning champion. He is a young man of few words, and if he has any fears, he keeps them buried deep, where no one else can see them. Puck Connolly is different. She never meant to ride in the Scorpio Races. But fate hasn’t given her much of a chance. So she enters the competition — the first girl ever to do so. She is in no way prepared for what is going to happen. My Thoughts: I was really excited to read The Scorpio Races . I'm a huge fan of Maggie Stiefvater, and I've read all her previous books apart from Balla...
