Jessica Rules the Dark Side Cover!

 Heya! I read 'Awakened'...
 and ohmigod!!
 Jack died... then Zoey's mum died right when she realized the truth... and now Heath's gonna be some friggin' darkness vessel thingee.
 So now I read the Forbidden Game Trilogy by L.J. Smith, and I am addicted to it! I am currently starting #2, 'The Chase'.
 And guess what? My town is having the 1st annual "24 hour physical activity day". And part of it is called "Pink in the Rink", some kind of fundraiser for breast cancer reasearch being hosted by the hockey team.
 Well guess what? When I went to skating practice today... the rink was actually pink. Like, the ICE WAS LITTERATELY PINK.
 Very distracting, skating on it.
 I'm also performing for it. :)
 So I was online and OMG!! Cover for 'Jessica Rules the Dark Side'!!!!!
Although I don't really like this cover much. The other one is much better. But still!!!
 One thing; is that Jessica on the cover or her birth mum? Personally, I think it's her birth mum.



 Anyways, Bye!

The Mortal Instruments Quotes

 

Clare's books are so funny with brilliant quotes. Here are just some of my favs-
"I Dont want to grow up, i want to be an angst ridden teenager who cant confront his own inner demons and takes it out verbally on other people instead" (Jace)

"When life gives you lemons, make lemonade, and then throw it in the
face of the person who gave you the lemons until they give you the
oranges you originally asked for" (Jace)

Jace - "So it's true. You can walk in sunlight"
"I thought perhaps it might have worn off'
Simon - "If i feel the urge to burst into flames, I'll let you know."

It says 'Shadowhunters; looking better in black than the window of our enemies since 1234." [Jace]

"...at least you don't have to worry about rejection, Jace Wayland."
"Not necessarily. I turn myself down occasionally, just to keep it interesting." said Jace.

Jace: A Diary with no drawings of me in it? Where are the torrid fantasies? The romance covers?

"You know, when most girls say they want a big rock, they don't mean, you know, literally a big rock."

"Hi, I'm one of the knife carrying hooligans you met last night in Pandemonium? I'm afraid I made a bad impression and was hoping you'd give me a change to make it up to....-" Simon

"It's the mortal Cup, Jace, not the Mortal Toilet bowl." Said Isabelle, " Are we done now? Can we go?"


The cuckoo bird," she said. "You see, cuckoos are parasites. They lay their eggs in other birds' nests. When the egg hatches, the baby cuckoo pushes the other baby birds out of the nest. The poor parent birds work themselves to death trying to find enough food to feed the enormous cuckoo child who has murdered their babies and taken their places."
"Enormous?" said Jace. "Did you just call me fat?"
"It was an analogy."
"I am not fat."
-- Jace and the Inquisitor


"Is this the part where you start tearing off strips of your shirt to bind my wounds?"
"If you wanted me to rip my clothes off, you should have just asked."
--Clary and Jace

Isabelle looked dubious. "Mom and dad won't be pleased if they find out."
"That you freed a possible criminal by trading away your brother to a warlock who looks like a gay Sonic the Hedgehog and dresses like the Child Catcher from 'Chitty Chitty Bang Bang'?" Simon inquired. "No, probably not."

"Meanwhile," Simon added, "I wanted to tell you that lately I've been cross-dressing. Also, I'm sleeping with your mom. I thought you should know."

"There is no pretending," Jace said with absolute clarity. "I love you, and I will love you until I die, and if there's a life after that, I'll love you then."

"...Have you fallen in love with the wrong person yet?'
Jace said, "Unfortunately, Lady of the Haven, my one true love remains myself."
"At least," she said, "you don't have to worry about rejection, Jace Wayland."
"Not necessarily. I turn myself down occasionally, just to keep it interesting."

"...in fact, don't touch any of my weapons without my permission.'
"Well, there goes my plan for selling them all on ebay," Clary muttered.
"Selling them on what?"
Clary smiled blandly at him, "A mythical place of great magical power."

"Well, you'll have to wait till tomorrow. I'm out of commission." (he points to his shirt) "Look. Jammies."

Isabelle: Investigation?Now we're detectives? Maybe we should all have some code names.
Jace: Good Idea, I shall be Baron Hotschaft Von Hugenstein.

"Jesus!" Luke exclaimed.
"Actually, it's just me," said Simon. "Although I've been told the resemblance is startling."

Jace: Do you remember back at the hotel when you promised that if we lived, you’d get dressed up in a nurse’s outfit and give me a sponge bath?
Clary: It was Simon who promised you the sponge bath.
Simon: As soon as I’m back on my feet, handsome.
Jace: I knew we should have left you a rat.


"Ridiculous isn't it? We would have never all fit."
(after jace and clary have their 'moment' and go to clary's room and see simon)

"One of the Silent Brothers is here to see you. Hodge sent me to wake you up. Actually, he offered to wake you up himself, but since it's five a.m., I figured you'd be less cranky if you had something nice to look at." Jace
"Meaning you?" Clary
"What else?" Jace

"I am a man" he told her, "and men do not consume pink beverages. Get thee gone woman, and bring me something brown."

"No, I'm just a very naughty boy. I do all sorts of bad things. I kick kittens. I make rude gestures at nuns."

Onto Awakened!

 I have finished 'Burned' , and it was a pretty good book. I haven't read House of Night in a long time tho, so I had a little trouble getting into it at first. But great book!
 Now I'm reading 'Awakened' , as I bought it 40% off! MWA HA HA!
 I'm listening to 'One Man Drinking Games' by Mayday Parade. Great Band.
 And here we have the complete first chapter of 'City of Fallen Angels'!


 So yah, I havven't really got much to say....

 Quote from Jace in 'The Mortal Instruments':
 "I am a man" he told her, "and men do not consume pink beverages. Get thee gone woman, and bring me something brown."

Done Nightfall

 Heya y'all,
 I finished Nightfall from the Vampire Diaries, and... wow. L.J. Smith is an insanely good writer. In a good way. :)
So now Elena, Matt, and of course, Damon, are going on a roadtrip to rescue Stefan. Well, I must say, that should be interesting. ;)
 As soon as I can get to the library I'll be grabbing 'Shadow Souls' off the shelve!

 So now I am FIANALLY reading Burned, and Zoey has a shattered soul. Will she come back from the Other Side? What will Stevie Rae do with the Raven Mocker that she is sorta in love with? And Dallas? Aphrodite too. Her loyalty is rough.
 We just gotta read!
 Yeah, and I got 'The Forbidden Game' trilogy book from Zellers yesterday!! 25% off than from Coles, plus ma SPC card, it only cost $9.91 compared to $13.99!
 Now, I seriously gotta stop buying books until 'City of Fallen Angels' comes out. REALLY. XD

P.S.
 Covers for Bloodlines and Thirst No. 4!

I'm Back On!

 Yes, I haven't been on in forever. I've been busy.
 But in that time span I delisiously gobbled up some books! First of all, I re-read 'City of Glass', and I must say, it was so much more beautiful than I remembered. The love between Jace and Clary is just... amazing. Beautiful. All of the stars.
 Re-reading this series has given me oppertunity to remember alot more things, and to see more details than before. Just... wow.

 I also gobbled up 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' and 'Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban'. (I do not know if I spelled that right.) In a matter of two days. I couldn't stop reading them! They're really quite different than other books, and I love them!

 So lately I've been reading:
 The Vampire Diaries Return: Nightfall

 And I must say; isn't Elena just gorgeous on this cover? I really hated the vampire one of her on the last two books in one. Like seriously, I keep looking and admiring the cover when I'm not reading it.
 Although at the beginning of the book, Elena was a little bit... yeah. A new born child. Which I really loved, Stefan and her like that.
 And I hate Damon so damn fucking much. He should just screw himself.




OMG!!! I've been on the library list FOREVER waiting for House of Night's 'Burned', and I fianally got it!!! MWA HAHA!!!
 Then of course, I can read 'Awakened' right after that, as I got it for 40% off at Superstore. (Go grocery stores that sell cheaper than the bookstore! Yipee!)
 I recommend that. Before buying from the bookstore, trying looking at places like Walmart, Zellers, or Superstore. Well, I think Superstore and Zellers are canadian... so some of you... err...never mind! Just look for good deals!

Warriors Special Edition-SkyClan's Destiny

Heya!
 So the Warriors books were a huge part of me when I was in Grade 4 and 5. Maybe even a bit of Grade 6. I LOVED them so much!
 So lately, I've been re-reading the original series when I can. It goes by fast now; but it's great. It's making me think of re-reading some other books, like Guardians of Ga'Hoole and Dear Canada.
 For Christmas I decided to ask for the new Super Edition, SkyClan's Destiny. It looked like a promising book, and it was! It also reminded me of Skyclan again. Now I think I'll read Firestar's Quest another time again.
 Well that was it, folks! I am now re-reading City of Glass.

2nd Storm Day

 Yup! School's cancelled again! :)
 LOL, though, it's supposed to be a second storm today. But so far it's just flurries. Could change any moment tho.
 This morning I got so into Thirst No.2 that I finished it. The end almost made me cry. Alisa....*sniffle*
 And Seymour too! Like, he's going to die from AIDS now! Alisa doesn't exist anymore, just a human Sita who lived a human life!
 But obviously, something's gonna happen. There's a 3rd No, for Krishina's sake! (lol, Krishina's sake XD) I still don't know if I'm going to buy it, or order from another library, cause I got the first 2 No's from the school library. Meanwhile, I'm planning on re-reading "City of Glass" a second time. I'm freshining my memory by reading the whole series before City of Fallen Angels comes out. (April 5th!! Yippee!)
 I hear that Thirst. No 3 The Eternal Dawn was just recently written, unlike the other No's. So I suppose Creatures of Forever (last book in No. 2) was supposed to be the absolute end, until Christopher Pike started writing them again recently. I've been reading some reviews on goodreads.
 The ending was a little bit forced, like some others say, on Creatures of Forever. I agree.
 But still awesome!
 Again, Christopher Pike reminds me of L.J. Smith. She too, has continued writing her books from a while back. Like seriously, Strange Fate from Night World? That finale book was supposed to come out AGES ago. Left the teens from those days wondering and complaining. And now, it comes out July, after the republication of the other books. Hmm.
 The Vampire Diaries too. She's adding new books.
 And I SO want to watch that show off of The Vampire Diaries. My friends are always freaking out over it. Apparently it's way different from the books, but still. I don't have it on my TV, so I could try the internet, but my parents would freak out.
 BTW, I have a goodreads account (i'm sure you can tell by the widgets lol) and I'm happy to talk on there.
 Anyways, I love it when school's cancelled. XD

Storm Day

Heya!
 So yah, I guess we're getting a good snow storm. School's cancelled! Yippe! Hopefully it's cancelled tomorow too.
 Just hoping!!
 Anyways, last post I said Seymour was a vamp. But I guess not. Had to read the next few pages.
 Oh, Kalika!!! Alisa, she is heartbroken.
 Anyways, I am on page 426. And now we're talking about UFO's?! Oh my. XD
 Although it seems that it's all the time that Alisa underestimates a person, and can't kill as easily. Tsk tsk.
 And now almost EVERYONE is stronger or equal to Alisa. Grr!
 Still, INSANELY awesome book. A must read.

 So am watching the Egypt rebellion, as are many others around the world. I think that Egyptians are doing the right thing, because it is THEIR country. The president shouldn't have a right, as he FAILED. He FAILED Egypt. If Egyptians say they do not want him as president, then he should leave the job. That would be the right thing to do. But of course, DICTATOR. (I like to incorperate DICKHEAD from that)
 Here is a video that really touched my heart.

And if you go WAY back in the history of comments, i had a little fight with a racist. I'm thechelsey100.

Cya!

Thirst No.2 (Phantom, Evil Thirst, Creatures of Forever) by Christopher Pike

Heya!
 So I've been real busy with skating competition and all, but I finished Thirst No. 1 and started No. 2.
 I knew that Alisa had to turn back to vampire. She couldn't live in that world being a human.
 It's so sad about Ray! And Kalika too! Alisa was so happy. I mean, I didn't like it cause she was out out her old, cool and awesome character. But she was so happy!
 And Seymour? I was going WTF when he died, like, that couldn't happen. Then, of course, I turn the page. Oh. He's a vamp now. XD
 So right now I am on page 195. The beggining of Book 2. Whoo-hoo.
 I hope she does some awesome vampire moves again!
 Yup! Great series :)

 Chelsey :)
