Passion (Fallen #3) by Lauren Kate and Canada Day

  What a delight!
 Yesterday was Canada Day! The sun shone through those dreary clouds and gave way to a nationwide celebration! To make it even more splendid, we had the lovely Duke and Duchess of Cambridge in Ottawa to highlight the fun day.
 Ah, sometime in my future I am determined to spend Canada Day in Ottawa. That'd be a real party! But yesterday, I went with my family to a nearby town that was bristliling with activity. There was a small carnival, a dog talent show, yummy treats, and several great displays of Scottish heritage. You could smell the ocean and observe as people danced in kilts and played their bagpipes.
 I went on this cool and really different ride. It's hard to explain. There is a UFO shaped machiene-room-thingy of which you go inside. around on the slanted walls, there's these mats that you just sort of lean againest. My sister and I had no idea what was going to happen, and there was nothing to hold on to, so we gripped our hands underneath the mat.Everyone else was just laying againest them.
 So. From the outside, we saw that the "UFO" spinned around, and we were like, what up with that? But on the inside, you couldn't tell at all. It had an illusion of it being on a slant and that was it.
 Now here's the cool part. The force it spinning made your body litirely stick to the mat. The force was pulling you back. And the guy in the middle, with all his controls, put a smile on and pushed the button.
 The mats went UP! We were stuck on the mats as they went up and our feet left the floor. And guess what? We didn't need to hold on! My face felt like it was being pulled back.
 So. We went up and down on this fun ride. And afterwards, I wanted to go on again, but we had to leave.
 On the way home, we stopped and had pop and chips at the beach. My sister carved a flower on a rock for me.
 Sadly, the fireworks were cancelled because of rain, but this was overall one of my best Canada Days!

 Now. Booktalk! I finished Passion. Pretty good!!!
 We stepped back in time with Luce, and watched her put the pieces together of her and Daniel's love story. She saw him in different situations with her past soul, watching him and realizing how much he suffered and how his side of the curse was worse.
 It's sad how our fun friend Bill the gargoyle was someone else all together. However, it was pretty obvious he wasn't who he seemed. He was Satan, and he is now determined to change the world's past entierely. His plan? Go back in time to when the Angels Fell from heaven. It took nine days for them to Fall. Catch them in the Fall withy announcers. Change history with them.
 And it all goes downhill from there....
 Daniel, Luce, and the other Angels have nine days to prevent this from happening. Nine days to locate the place where they Fell. Nine days to save the world.
 It's gonna be Hell.
 So! Can't wait for Rapture! :) Final book in the series.

 Right now, I have just started 'The Summoning' from the Darkest Powers Trilogy by Kelley Armstrong.

Lovely Laptop, yes yes. Also Fallen series by Lauren Kate.

 Well, it seems my just LOVELY laptop screwed up, and that's why I haven't posted for a while. I'm not going to bother going back to post about the books I read, but I read some new series like Blue Bloods and the Wicked Lovely series.
 Anyways, the other day I was so depressed. I wanted to buy all the books at the bookstore. I got pretty close to buying 3 books that were $20 worth each. But my mother pushed me back to one book.
 So what did I buy?
 'Passion', by Lauren Kate! It came out this month, and I was super excited! It is the third book in the Fallen series, which is about a fallen angel and his curse of falling in love with the same girl in all her lifetimes and watching her go up in flames every time.
 In the first book, Lucinda Price meets Daniel at Sword and Cross Academy, and falls in love with him, as she unknowingly has for all of her past lives. But insted of bursting into flames when they kiss, she lives. Something has shifted in the curse for this incarnation of Luce. She learns about Daniel being an angel, and the battles that occur between other fallen angels on Earth.
 In the second book, Luce is taken to Shoreline, a school for humans to Nephemlim to be hidden from those who want her dead. Daniel is away and fighting for her, and this saddens Luce. She learns more about the shadows that have haunted her all her life, and she realizes how many families have been hurt by her deaths her past lives. In the end, she steps dangerouly into the past, wanting to know about her past lives, despite Daniel's pleas.
 So! We find ourself with Passion. Luce is visting some of her past lives, and she has come dangerouly close to altering her future. She is accompained by a "tour guide" named Bill who has taken on the form of a gargoyle. Meanwhile, Daniel is chasing her back through her lives, but she is faster than him.
 Right now I am on page 180, and Luce is visting her funeral in Prussia, 1758. She is learning about Daniel, and how he would sleep until her soul would settle somewheres.
 Right now, the book is very interesting and sad. She has seen herself die a few times already. And so has Daniel, chasing Luce through the past.

I read CoFA...

... and it was okay.
 Now you might be saying, 'How can you call a mortal instruments book OKAY??!!' but it is my least favourite of them all. Not as beautiful.
 AND OF COURSE IT WAS A CLIFFHANGER!!! GRR!!!! Tortures me.
 But now that i own it, people are asking me to borrow it. I'm nice, 'course I said sure. :) 3 peoples on the list so far.
 So. Spoilers here:

 Ah, the two girlfriend thing was so funny with Simon. Like Clary said, he was playing with fire. If Jordan hadn't been in the story, they would've been so much more pissed at her.
 Poor Jordan. He didn't mean to bite Maia, and of course she didn't know that. She had formed a monster of Jordan in her mind, and he was never going to stop looking for her. Those two, meant for each other. It was just the whole 'you turned me into this creature and there's no going back' thing. But I think it was actually good that they both got pulled into the world of Downworlders and Shadowhunters. I mean, they were having a bad time with their human lives before, right? Although I suppose they would have just run away into the sunset if that were so. But they did meet Simon and everyone else.
 As soon as Clary pictured that rune that took her to the Church of Talto, I knew that was were Clockwork Angel was going to cross. :) Although I thought more would be revealed in this book.
 Ah... Jace and Clary making out all the time again. Good times, good times. It was pretty hot.
 Oh Isabelle... it made me so sad when she told Simon about her Father and the affair and everything else that her mother told her. She's trying to stay away from love so that her heart won't be broken like other people. I love her and Simon
 ARG what"s going on with my keys?? ok they"re not working properly as you can see> I don"t know what"s going on with them> i don"t have caps lock on!!!
 Alright, i'll try to continue best as i... HEY! they work again!!! Weird...
 ok, shake of the head, back to typing.
 I wasn't happy with Alec. Warlocks live FOREVER. Do you know how long that is? Have you lived forever? No. Of course you aren't the only one he would date. Get over it. Good thing he did in the end.
 Of course, the cliff hanger. Another thing that ruins Jace & Clary's time together. JEEZ...
 And that's my review! :)

 -Chelsey
 I am not happy I ordered Catching Fire from the library, and nobody was borrowing it when I ordered. SO WHERE IS IT??? Other than that, nothing to read that's NEW. ;(

I'm Back

Yeah, It's me! I haven't posted forever cause I didn't feel like it, and nobody was reading my blog anyways. So that's the deal. :)
 In that time though, I have read ALOT.
 Here's a list:

  

     

And I am now currently reading- *GASP* CITY OF FALLEN ANGELS!!!! YES!!! I FINALLY HAVE MY FRIGGIN HANDS ON IT!! MWA HAHA!!

 Holy crap, it's finally here. YES!!

 So I had a project this past weekened- sort out all the video tapes. Remember the big, funky video cameras we used to have, with the tapes? That was it. :)
 And my oh my, besides all the drooling and snot, wasn't I just the most adorable baby? I was sooooo cute! And funny. :)
 Then there was also my sisters. They didn't have the video camera when they were little- I was born much later than them, and they didn't get the video camera until a few years before I was born. So basicly the majority of the videos are JUST ME. (Spotlight!!!) Sorry sissys, but that's how it's done. ;D
 But the videos made me miss the family even more. One sister has moved out, the other is in university. And Mom's always at work!!
 Mom has always been there for me, putting up with me, and I love her so much. She is the light of my life. :)
 And Dad... is Dad. Once he stops being grumpy I'll love him more. XD
 I love my family so much. In fact, I'm going to write one of my sister's an e-mail right now. :)

 Cya,
 Chelsey :)

Hi

 I haven't been on in a long time.
 So I read 'The Host' by Stephenie Meyer. It was.... wow. Very creative and unique! Way differrent from Twilight.
 And I guess Steph's writing a second one too. Awesome!
 So I FIANALLY got 'Shadow Souls' and I have started it. This should be interesting, Elena, Matt, and Damon in a car to save Stefan. Wonderful mix there.

 I also got 'The Hunger Games'. It's supposed to be a really awesome series aparently.

 I've been wanting to read 'Wondrous Strange' for a while too. And guess what? Apparently it's at my library. How did I miss it???
 Nothing beats this though- 'City of Fallen Angels'. Less than a month, and OMG I'm freaking out. I still have yet to pre-order it, but I saved some Christmas money specially for this. APRIL 5 EVERYBODY!!!!

                                                                   

The Host by Stephenie Meyer

 Heya!

 I haven't been on in a while, been real busy.

 So after I finished The Forbidden Game trilogy (Which i absolutely adored!!!!) I wanted to head straight to the library for Shadow Souls! But sadly, someone has it out.... *tear*

*BEATS UP PERSON FIGURATELY!!!*

 So I didn't really know what to read, since I wasn't in the mood for Harry Potter. So I decided to try Sarah Dessen books, by reading 'Along for the Ride'. And I'm sorry, I just couldn't finish it. It was going way too slow. Plus I really hate her bitchy mother.

 I ended up bringing it back to the library, and then I got 'The Host' by Stephenie Meyer. It's really good, and I can tell some big things are going to happen!

 So yah, the provincials skating competition is being held in my hometown this weekened!!! YES!!! It's gonna be awesome!!

 Anyways, wish me luck in the competition!

 -Chelsey :)

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!

"This is bad."

"You said that already."

"It seemed worth repeating."
