Quote of the Week

Reboot

Hey guys,  WoW! It's been a while since I saw this blog. Originally, I made Pages of Truth when I was a bit younger. It's both funny and embarrassing to look back at some of my old posts, but it reminded me of that spirit I once possessed. This spirit allowed me to share my passions without concern for criticism or fear of others' opinions. Like most teenagers, during this time between my first post and now, I have lost a lot of this spirit. I have felt a lot less comfortable with myself and less able to express myself in this forum. Looking back at the posts written by what seems like a different girl, I realize that I am still chasing that dream. The dream that I would be able to influence others and maybe recommend a book they loved, or share a funny meme that makes someone laugh hysterically. Since the time when I created this blog, the types of books and interests I've taken up have matured.  I feel that the person I am now is in an even better position to speak to...

Quote of the Week

Tone Deaf by Olivia Rivers

Image
Synopsis:   His world is music. Her world is silent.            Ali Collins was a child prodigy destined to become one of the greatest musicians of the twenty-first century—until she was diagnosed with a life-changing brain tumor. Now, at seventeen, Ali lives in a soundless world where she gets by with American Sign Language and lip-reading. She’s a constant disappointment to her father, a retired cop fighting his own demons, and the bruises are getting harder to hide.             When Ali accidentally wins a backstage tour with the chart-topping band Tone Deaf, she’s swept back into the world of music. Jace Beckett, the nineteen-year-old lead singer of the band, has a reputation. He’s a jerk and a player, and Ali wants nothing to do with him. But there’s more to Jace than the tabloids let on. When Jace notices Ali’s bruises and offers to help her escape to New York, Ali can’t turn down the chance at freedom and a fre...

A Court of Mist and Fury Review

Image
A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Mass My Rating: 8/10 stars Synopsis:   Feyre survived Amarantha's clutches to return to the Spring Court—but at a steep cost. Though she now has the powers of the High Fae, her heart remains human, and it can't forget the terrible deeds she performed to save Tamlin's people. Nor has Feyre forgotten her bargain with Rhysand, High Lord of the feared Night Court. As Feyre navigates its dark web of politics, passion, and dazzling power, a greater evil looms—and she might be key to stopping it. But only if she can harness her harrowing gifts, heal her fractured soul, and decide how she wishes to shape her future—and the future of a world cleaved in two. With more than a million copies sold of her beloved Throne of Glass series, Sarah J. Maas's masterful storytelling brings this second book in her seductive and action-packed series to new heights. Review:   Oh my gosh! Have you read the first book? If your answer is no... go away! ...

Red Pill? Blue Pill?

I know, two posts in one day from me is an anomaly, but I just can't help sharing this. I must admit I found this on Pinterest, so I did not create this. Just putting that out there. Protecting my interests. Disclaimer: This is not plagiarism! My question to you now is: which would you choose? In a completely hypothetical sense I would take that red pill from this person's hand and never give it back. Just want to make a note. Mom, this does not mean I am leaving you. This is hypothetical and hypothetically I would rather exist in a world where I could date Rhysand from A Court of Thorns and Roses than exist in a world where my main occupation is homework. However, I would also steal the blue pill from the person's other hand because: why not? I may still have to choose between living in a fictional world, or having characters live in mine, but I have a plan for this. PLEASE DO NOT WORRY! I HAVE A PLAN! Because: After stealing that blue pill from the person...

Who Will You Choose?

Ok I saw this and just had to share it! I know I don't have many followers on this blog, but please comment on who you would choose. 5 Characters: Jace from the Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare (because he is a "badass shadowhunter"  Rhysand from A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J Mass (because he is perfect) Wolf from the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer (not only is he part wolf, we could just feed him tomatoes and he could live off of those) Wanda from the Host by Stephenie Meyer (because someone has to be thinking about achieving peace) Adrian from Bloodlines (we need comic relief and he has spirit magic, so why not) Quotes from each character's books: Jace: Rhysand: Wolf: Wanda: Adrian:
