Summary for FEATHERS

Hey ya'll! I finished FEATHERS. So here's the summary:

FEATHERS: 


I thought I was normal.
Well, as normal as you can get. I have a step brother, a blood sister, a half sister, a blood mom and a step dad.
 But otherwise than that. I thought I was normal. 
But things change.

Stacy Castle thought she was normal. But that was until she found out what she was.
Now you must try to get through this hard time in her life.
She must have self control and she must be brave. And she must not be afraid to show what she's feeling.
And she must be careful who she trusts.
And loves.

FEATHERS will be on: madisonlouisesbooks.weebly.com Dec. 14th 2011.

Review: VANISH by Sophie Jordan







WARNING: This book is the SECOND in the Firelight series, so there are SERIOUS spoilers. I have tried to warn you when they come up, but you should probably read the first book first: FIRELIGHT, by Sophie Jordan, if you don't like spoilers.


Summary from: www.goodreads.com


To save the life of the boy she loves, Jacinda did the unthinkable: She betrayed the most closely-guarded secret of her kind. Now she must return to the protection of her pride knowing she might never see Will again—and worse, that because his mind has been shaded, Will’s memories of that fateful night and why she had to flee are gone. 

Back home, Jacinda is greeted with hostility and must work to prove her loyalty for both her sake and her family’s. Among the few who will even talk to her are Cassian, the pride’s heir apparent who has always wanted her, and her sister, Tamra, who has been forever changed by a twist of fate. Jacinda knows that she should forget Will and move on—that if he managed to remember and keep his promise to find her, it would only endanger them both. Yet she clings to the hope that someday they will be together again. When the chance arrives to follow her heart, will she risk everything for love?

In bestselling author Sophie Jordan’s dramatic follow-up to Firelight, forbidden love burns brighter than ever.



Christian beilifs: ...


Other beliefs sysetms: dragons, and all there beliefs and such.


Violence:  SPOILER: Cassian and Will and Corbin fight, and he describes what happens. No blood.
SPOILER:  Jacinda and Miram get captured by hunters, and Sophie describes what Jacinda is feeling and that there bleeding, becuase they've been shot. And that she just wants to fall asleep. Nothing too extreme. And Jacinda shoots fire more than once, just saying it burns someone.


Languge:  Well, here we go... I'm not sure, but I think I read a d--n and they use h--l more than once, and Will uses the LORD's name in vain. (made me flinch, not something I like to read, EVER.)


Romance: Oh! My favorite part of the books I read. (besides the action) SPOILER, SERIOUS SPOILER, WARNING YOU, ALRIGHT, HERE WE GO, Jacinda and Cassin kiss. And somehow, people like to bite down on people's lips. Never got that, well, I've never kissed anyone, and won't be doing anything for awhile, but it still is weird. And tongues are in weird places, seriously don't understand it. Anyway, Will and Jacinda kiss, and Az kisses one of the guards to let, SPOILER, Tamra and Jacinda can get away. (the solider is older than Az, but Sophie doesn't describe anything else.)


Any other bad things: Just that, the draki have a ceremony that is like marrying, and not telling you who it is that gets it, because I don't want to ruin the ENTIRE book for you, but they just talk like their animals, like breeding and such, and how the pride, (group of draki) have to keep growing. But there's NONE of them doing it. I SWEAR there is not, if there was, I would have skipped it. Oh! And two people are in bed together, wearing clothes mind you, but I skipped through most of it, because I just don't like to read that kind of stuff. Bothers me.


Comments: That I just LOVED it. And I CANNOT wait for the third book!!! I just think Sophie did an AWESOME job, and that I'm sad I finished it already. It was awesome! I keep re-reading my favorite parts. (you know it's good, when I do that.) And that I love reading her books, because, there's not a lot of describing, which some is good, but I'm more of a dialect reader and writer. (if you've read my books, you already know this) And I think too much description will not allow you to use your imagination as much. I'm sure everyone has there own idea at what my characters look like, and it's probably different than mine. But I think it's good not to half a lot, just the basics.
Ok, you can stop listening to me ramble now...


Rating: 2 out of 5 for any age. And 5 out of 5 for AH-MAZINGNESS
Oh, and this book would probably be good for thirteen and up, depending on parents allowing. If that makes sense...hope it does. Your parents are there for you. :)

Super Saturday...(a random post)

Hey ya'll!

It's really windy here. Like a tornado could come any moment. (thankfully it's not hot enough for that)

Anyway, I spent most of my time until 10:40 sleeping. And then I got up and wrote...and wrote...watched TV...wrote...played video games...blogged. Oh, and took a walk and my hair got all messy.

I have this one song stuck in my head! It's: Teenage Daughters by Martina McBride. I like the song, just for a couple words, not bad ones, just...there's no use for them. But it's a pretty good song. It's from a real mothers point of view on teenage daughters. Here's the video:
Well....tonight, my best friend is coming over for a bit. That's gonna be fun. :)

I'm really upset that I have no book to review for you guys. Most of the books I have, are really good, and you don't have to worry about anything being bad in them. VANISH by Sophie Jordon is coming in soon. Just wish it would come in faster!! Grrrr!!


Well, I better go play some video games. ;) lol

Bye for now!!

Happy Friday!

Well, it's Friday again, and here's another looooong post about what I did. You can read it, or not. Your choice. hehe

On Monday, I didn't write my book as much because it was a busy day, and I really didn't know what to write about. But I did go to Bible Study. And that's always fun. :)

On Tuesday, I had school, and wrote more. Then, I went to C.R.Y. (Celebrate Recovery Youth) at my church and then my friend came home with me for a sleep over. And I won THE IRON KNIGHT by: Julie Kagawa.
(I was sooooo excited!! Still am...lol)

On Wens., I had more school, and I wrote more. And I went to my church again for dance, and I saw my friends and the guy I like. Which made my day better. lol.

Then, on Thursday, I had school and wrote a TON. I had a online class about space, but the guy teaching it, talked more about the Big Bang than stars. Which made me upset, because God created the earth. And I said that, but they said God couldn't be proven. And I was really upset. I even quoted Scripsure: Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning, God created the Heavens and the Earth."

And today is Friday. I have written a lot, getting closer to my first kissing scene in the book. hehe. I think you guys are going to love it!

Random fact I learned and interested me: Snake's wind pipe's are where are TONGUES would be. (I thought this was awesome.)

And as you can see, my blog is re-done. Thanks to Sophie! (read her blog here: Shutter (Blessed). Didn't she do a great job? I think so, she made my button, header and signature. :)

Hope you guys have a great rest of the day!!


 

blog post...

Hey all!

Do you like the new look? I think I'll be keeping this one for awhile. :)

Thank you Sophie for making the header for me! Make sure you check out her blog: Shutter (Blessed)

Happy Friday everyone! I'll blog more later, I have to get to school now. ;)

It's Friday...

Hiiii!

First off, there are TWO contests you can enter,  The Costume Contest and The Pirate Contest. I know some of you don't celebrate Halloween, and it's alright. I understand. So I now have TWO contest for you to enter. So good check them out!

Well, what's been happening? Well, I have started and stopped and started a new book. I just can't make up my mind!!! Hopefully this one will be better.

A Royal Mix Up will be on Write Always on Oct. 10th! I can't wait for you guys to read it! It's not the best, but hopefully you like it...

I'm just really siked for Halloween this year. I've been thinking about what I want to be for a months now. And it's gone from, Annabeth from Percy Jackson, Michael Jackson and now it's going to be a girl from the times when people would travel West.

I'm reading this book series called: LOVE COME'S SOFTLY. I'm on the 4th book now. There good Christian books. And there REALLLLY good. There by Janette Oak. You should check it out.

I just got back from dance. And we're doing the song YOUR HANDS. I'm really excited for it. But I don't acutally get how to dance it yet. It was the first practice though.

My mom and I are going to watch LOVE COMES SOFTLY the movie. (make sure you read the first two books first before watching the movie)

And as you all know, Steve Jobs, the creator of Apple, died on Wen. Did you know that he was adopted? So his mother chose life for him. And didn't get an abortion. It makes you think about all those other babies that died, and you wonder what they would have done if they had lived.

Well, I hope you guys are having a good week! Tomorrow is Saturday! My friends went to D.C for a WHOLE week and there coming back today! I can't wait to see them at church on Sunday! They said they would bring me back something. Can't wait to see what they got me. :)
