It's time to stop whenever you feel you're not happy anymore with whenever you're doing.
When you have beautiful kids but you read disturbing books. I wanted to like this one. I really do. :( it's hard to admit that this was well written.
Nakakahiya yung mababasa mo sa loob as in kadiri talaga! Pero yun nga. Huhuhuh what a nicely written book. Shit talaga. Que horror!
What a sentimental story-line for an alien related book, clearly John has adapted too much. Got very hooked on this. :P Looking forward to reading about the others. And also, I knew something's up with Bernie Kosar. I love him. :)
Although the ending I got wasn't what I wanted still it was so beautiful. Arrrg. Heartrendingly beautiful that even though it had hurt so much all of it will be washed away with a little music. I was rooting for the end for them to play together on stage, but Ahhg. Beautiful. :) I liked Adam's POV though, but you will see points that this was created by one author, dunno if it's a good thing or not, but still. Beautiful. :)
Not finishing a book is like being a bad friend. But this is a struggle. I have seen too many cop series.
This had been on my list for a along time but upon reading the book description, it has been there ever since until I finally started.
It started interesting. How very precise a character created by the author is to be. But Gillian Flynn led me to believe what she want me to which was a good start, I almost didn't want to finish though, I was predicting what would happen and I always never get it. I almost know what will happen next but every ‘day of' was different, really far from what I was expecting.
I have to say the ending was what I wanted although it's totally crazy as in mad. Mental crazy. I wanted it to end that way but I was led to think that it won't but then Amazing Amy does it again.
I wonder how the author was able to come up with her character. Totally crazy. I love her. It must have been an extensive fun research.
But then again. How good books like this are almost wasted because of a bad start. You know. It wasn't actually too bad of a start. I watch way too much cop series.
Undoubtedly amazing. It's just a little too sad for me at this time. But greatly, this is one good book.
Lisbeth Salander is a woman who hates men who hates woman. I like this book because it was about her, she such an interesting character, there are also points that I was wishing she continue to live only a happy life. But that was only in the beginning it became a bit uninteresting when unnecessary details are being added. There are times that I do not want to read about the product the characters are eating or what they are using, thus the 4 stars.
There should be extreme punishment to crimes committed against woman. This is like a summary of what is happening to the world, it is a shame Dag and Mia died like that. And if this was a true story, I do hope Millennium publishes the book. They would really like that.
By the end, Ronald Niedermann said, “If there was one thing that Zalachenko had rummed into him, it was always to retain the ability to walk away, without sentimentality, from a situation that felt unmanageable. That as a basic rule for survival. Don't lift a finger for a lost cause.” I like that idea.
I love it and I hate it at the same time. Is that possible? Yes. Because it's Steig Larsson. >.<
Reasons I love it:
-Duh, Lisbeth Salander. She's one of my favourite female character ever. If you ask me to describe badass, I would say Lisbeth Salander.
-Berger's story got interesting when she left Mellenium and started at SMP, She knows what she wants and does it without hesitation because she is the boss. And she knows it.
-The Journalism. It's amazing how at that time, everyone is anticipating the print that is coming out. I am still happy with everyday newspaper. But you know, the internet is here so, can't complain.
-The Trial, I have waited 700 pages for it and it was all worth it. I swear I cried for a solid 5 minutes when Palmgren stood up from his wheelchair and spoke. T_T I don't want to spoil it for you but it was all worth the wait.
And I hate it because:
- All 3 books has too much explanation of everything. Description of everything, what was ordered, what was on the receipt, how it was delivered, even who delivered it. Ugh. You feel like skipping through the pages, but you do not because eventually, you are interested on how tasty that Billy's Pan pizza is. Ugh.
But still. I am glad Lisbeth had the happy ending she deserved. Long overdue. Although she still has her same ways. At she can now at least be legal to be drunk in Sweden. She earned it.
I admit Kai had me blushing too much, I felt anxious. However, feeling the rush of that would not even compare to the tremor I felt all the those times they were talking and getting too close on the trials. I MEAN, there were sights all over the place??? I might read the next one because I'm curious what Kitt would do to Pae. If not gobble. I was not ready for a love triangle, but let's go!
Saying a lot was going on in this book is an understatement, it was slow in the beginning but I felt like it was jumping up and down for new ideas here and there. The only comfort I had from this was when they were at the study?/library? reading and doing nothing because half the time they're just running around and then we get to the ending.
I was freaking out for 5 minutes thinking if he turned to the fairy king? Did he, or did he not, I had to go to the internet and search for reasons why he would even be. Ugh. Anyway, he didn't. Turns out he now is the metaphorical king or something and is now Effy's savior. Okay.
Literally drowning in confusion,

Eleanor was so angry she made demons of her own that wanted to end her because she wanted to destroy everything else.
I think she has all the right to but it's not the right thing to do.
4.5 stars
I love this. It's funny, calming, and heartbreaking at the same time. Rachel's life was so close to home that I am so proud of her choices and decisions throughout this book.
Reread to Kashmir last December and it's still as wonderful since I read this 15 years ago.
Boy, I love this goddam book. I like how spontaneously adventurous Holden is. I love his character. How he thinks. How he asks about ducks and how he remembers that Jane keeps all her kings at the back. I hoped he would call her though, maybe he did, maybe not. I loved how this book is written like it is from one sitting. I love this quote from the book:
“What really knocks me out is a book that, when you're all done reading it, you wish the author that wrote it was a terrific friend of yours and you could call him up on the phone whenever you felt like it. That doesn't happen much, though.”
It would have been nice if I can ring J.D. Salinger and talk about his book.
And this:
“Anyway, I keep picturing all these little kids playing some game in this big field of rye and all. Thousands of little kids, and nobody's around - nobody big, I mean - except me. And I'm standing on the edge of some crazy cliff. What I have to do, I have to catch everybody if they start to go over the cliff - I mean if they're running and they don't look where they're going I have to come out from somewhere and catch them. That's all I do all day. I'd just be the catcher in the rye and all. I know it's crazy, but that's the only thing I'd really like to be.”
He wanted to save all the kids. I wish I could.
There are alot more and I do hope whoever reads this review reads the book. Please.
Please. I have been saying that a lot. And then when I read about it as it ends, I thought I was going to cry. I love old Phoebe. And Holden's hat. :) Everyone is phony to tell you the truth. But I don't think Holden is one.
I do not recommend this to anybody, this is a horrible, horrible, horrible, horrible book, it's purely about cruelty to man and woman, rape and all bad things that's disgusting. This shouldn't have been written or even thought about. I feel so bad about Beauty and felt so sorry for Prince Alexi, no one should ever experience such things. Sex is supposed to be happy, making love and all, but all ever was in this book is rape, rape, rape. I want to burn everybody in this book alive. Arrrgg! There was never a sexy time, a kilig moment about this book and I hate it that I want to erase it off my brain, wash, bleach my brain off it. I hate it, just hate it. I'm so sorry I'm hating a book too much. :(
Almost all the characters have their charm. The magic system is original and the plot is interesting. Seriously, this book is long but I am up to my feet every time there's a fight, and there is almost at least one in every chapter. I love it. I now know why Brandon Sanderson is such a goat to high-fantasy readers. I look forward to the conclusion of this series. I have high hopes, and I know I will not be disappointed.
The characters felt like they're clueless about everything except for Kelsier- which is kind of the whole plot. I did enjoy how the metal burning worked. Vin's monologue got me chocking for a minute. I will for sure pick up the next book!
It's a cozy, comforting read. <3 There are no villains, no antagonists, just vibes. I love it.
Everything Everywhere All at Once. One thing about memories is that if it comes rushing back to you, it never lies. I enjoyed this book, I didn't even notice it was coming to an end.
