hey guys! I’m doing a tag, which I haven’t been tagged in, but I’m still doing it anyway. But, this can either be really therapeutic, or just make me more stressed out. Since boom bloggers, bookstagramer, and BookTubers spend way more time talking about books then actually reading them.
a book that a certain friend is always telling me to read
All the girls in my algorithm group keep telling me I need to read, if we were villains, red, white, and royal blue, and the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo. I’m telling you, I’ll read them soon, I’m just not sure when.
a book that has been on your TBR for a while and still haven’t read
This is most books on my TBR, but I feel like divergent and the hunger games are the biggest one. Since i was pretty young, I was 3 HG and and seven for Divergent. But, I do own them, so hopefully I’ll get to them soon.
Abook in a series I’ve started, but haven’t finished yet
I don’t actually read a bunch of series, for this reason. But I haven’t finished The Field Party series, but Abi Glines. I’ve reading the first one, and I own the second one. Sadly, a boy in my old class ruined the books for me, since he kept making sex jokes about it.
a classic that I like the sound of, but never actually picked up
I really want to read all the brothers grim fairytales, and the dark story behind all the Disney movies
a book that everyone seems to read, but you haven’t
Some of the ones that I already said, could be used for this one, but I only ever read the first mortal instruments book.
a book that inspired a film/tv adaption that you really love, but you just haven’t read yet
I have yet to finish the princess diaries. I read the first four, but never continued.
A book bag you’ve seen all over Instagram but still haven’t picked up yet
I haven’t read Wicked king yet, but I’m am rereading the cruel prince to start the book.
I hope you enjoyed. This was really fun to do, but also kinda embarrassing that I haven’t read these popular books yet.
Hey everyone! So, this is my fourth time reading TFIOS, and I have some thoughts. I gave TFIOS 4/5 stars in the end. But, beware, THERE IS SPOILERS! But if you haven’t read this, you probably live under a rock, so proceed with caution, if you still want to read this and haven’t read it. But if you did, go ahead and hope you enjoy .
First thing first, I found hazel really annoying. She whines half of the time, and the other time she’s talking like a doctor, then the next she’s talking about how much she loves Gus. I like Gus too, but I’m not saying how much I love him every five seconds I think about him. And she’s always talking like she’s a 50 year old doctor that deals with cancer patients every single day of her young life.
Anyway, i feel like it was way to dramatic. In a way , I feel like they made Gus’s issues, to drag out longer then they needed too, but I also feel like it wasn’t enough. There was not enough of hazel’s grieving and getting over Gus. And you only really saw her cry about him dying, once when he actually died.
The romance in this book was basic. It was the romance that you see in every YA romance book. You know the typical one where they can’t get enough for each other, and had a bright future together, but some things went down, and it didn’t work out in the long run. And I feel like their relationship moved way to fast, where one minute they where friends and they next they where having sex in Amsterdam. Anyway, I do feel like Gus and Hazel had two different perspectives on the romance. I feel like hazel took everything a little to fast, but Gus just went with it to make her happy. But I do think hazel and Gus did have some feeling for each other, but it was mostly the first love syndrome for Hazel.
I feel like Gus’s cancer moved really quickly. Granted I think it was brewing before they went to Amsterdam. But I feel like the cancer was, he was fine, he went to the hospital, he was fine again, he got sicker, he puked, and then he died. And I feel John Green didn’t handle the death that greatly, with hazel not crying. But, I think it was just common sense that she cried, but it got to the point I don’t even know.
Anyway, moving on from the basic review, I have a theory, that actually makes some sense. So, we all know hazel and gus love the imperial affection, it’s want brings them together somewhat. And hazel and Gus said that the book just stoped since Anna, the main character, dies or gets to sick to write the rest of the story. So, my theory is TFIOS just ends after hazel got the note, because she died or got to sad because of Gus’s death. It’s just a theory, I’m not saying anything it true, but it does make some sense.
That’s it from me today, I hope you enjoyed, and comment if you read the book, and what you thought.
Hey guys! I’m not sure if it’s a surprise to people, but I’m a massive Disney fan. I grew up to going to Disney, being the characters for Halloween, and watching the movies and live actions. So naturally, I’ve been to the parks 10+ plus times, so i know some tips and tricks for new Disney fans.
So one of the main things that people always my family when we go to Disney, is the airport and getting from
the airport to your hotel. If you are staying at ANY Disney hotel, there is the magical express, that will take you from the airport to the hotel and vice versa. All you need is you, your magic bands, and your carryon, and of course yourself. One of the biggest mistakes that happen is people get their suitcases from the airplane, the ones they check in, and makes you miss your bus. Don’t worry, the mouse will bring your suitcase to your hotel room before you crash for the night. There also is Minnie Mouse SUV that are around the Airport and the parks for other transportation. But I haven’t gone in one yet.
Naturally the next topic should be hotels. If your a DVC member like my family, you have a home hotel. (DVC is Disney Vacation Club, and home hotel is where we bought the DVC member ship from.) We only have stayed at that hotel a once, since it’s not our favorite. Are go to are The Wilderness Lodge, the Beach Club, The Contemporary and Bay lake tower. There is different hotels for different price points, the all stars are the cheap ones, and I don’t recommend staying there in the summer cause teenage groups from other countries and they scream and sing all night. And ones like the contemporary are more expensive since it’s close to MK and you can see the fireworks and the water show.
Transportation is another big thing, because you have to get from park to park. If you stay at Contemporary, Bay lake, The Polynesian, or the Grand Floridian have the monorail to get to and from MK and Epcot. But busses to Disney springs, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom(AK.) Where if you where to stay at the Beach club you could walk to Epcot and ride a boat to HS. The busses aren’t as nice as the ones to and from the airport, but they are still pretty nice. Where if your at the Wilderness, you have to take a bus to all of them, expect MK cause you take a boat there.
One of the most important things in everyone’s daily life is food. If your a DVC member like I am, you get a quick server, sit down, and snack point. We always use our quick server and sit down for lunch and dinner, occasionally for breakfast. But for breakfast we bring cereal and oatmeal from home and just get milk from the hotel. Some of my favorite quick servers are Mexico, Be Our Guest, (you need reservations for that one,) Pinocchio’s restaurant by it’s a small world, and contempo cafe. The easiest ways to explain quick serve, it’s kinda like fast food. The sit downs are more like Sunday dinners. For sit downs, the crystal palace, Ohana, England, and Chef Mickey. And for snack points, we always get Starbucks, rice crispies, cookies, ice cream, water, turkey legs, and Pretzels.
Now Fastpasses. They are actually one of the biggest things in a trip to Disney. For us, we always do peter pans flight, the wait can get really long, the jungle cruise and pirates of the Caribbean, since those two are favorites, Spaceship earth, it gets really long too, the safari, River rapids, the mine train, all the mountains, and hunted Mansion, since those are our favorites. When you get fast passes, don’t get them for the Donald Duck ride in Mexico, finding Nemo, the land, Ariel, dumbo, the magic carpet, any musical, it’s a small world, or anything that you think would have a small wait time. You can get three per day, but if you use them up, you can get more. But you can’t get FP at AK then get more at MK.
And the last big topic is shopping. Disney springs, or formally called downtown Disney, is pretty great. They have the sone if the best shops. Definitely go to the big Disney store and the Christmas store. I love all the different countries, they are the best.
Then MK has some great ones, the emporium is really good, AK has a bunch of cute stands, and HS doesn’t have anything that great at the moment, since it’s mostly under construction.
I hope you enjoyed this. If you have anything else Disney related for a blog post, let me know in the comments.
