Started reading Losing Hope by Colleen Hoover

Hello Bookies,

I finally have my hands on this book and I have to be honest, I kind of forgot about it. I've read Hopeless way before I started this blog, so I have no notes to go on when it comes to refreshing my memory on what happened in the book. I don't even know what this book is about because it has been so long. But I'm going to read it and hope that I can learn something. Sorry that this post wasn't longer. Wish me luck when it comes to this adventure.

So until next time...

Manga post #21

Hello Bookies,

I just got my next batch of mangas and I'm ready for the adventures to begin. I'm pretty sure I will be working on the series I have for a while. I know one is still on going and one is really long. I'm not sure about the third one though. I guess I will just have to find out.

How this manga start is kind of like a recap on how the first volume ended. Which is nice because that way you aren't completely lost on all that is going on if you take a long break. The only downside to this is it feels like you are repeating yourself. Like you want to skip over it because you read all of it before. Anyways, the battle with Titans continue and everyone has to figure out a way to get more gas before they all die. They eventually figure it all out, discover a new Titan, and everyone gets a shock of their life. That is all I can say because the whole volume is just about the Titan invasion in the wall. Hopefully I can say more in the next volume. But so far I'm enjoying the series. I enjoyed the anime for what I was able to watch. I can't even remember where I watched it to begin with, maybe Netflix. I don't know, but it is still nice to be able to read all that is going on in the series. I'm just wondering what will happen in the next volume.

The battle between Luffy and big bad fishman is still underway. Luffy does a few things that make you question but he eventually pulls through and wins the battle. Everyone is happy in the village that Nami is from because they are free from the fishmen. Anyways, Nami now becomes part of the crew and they are on their way to their next adventure. But before they go to the Grand Line, they make a small stop. They relax a bit and walk around town. There is a few differences to how they played out the town in the anime then they did in the manga. They obviously have to stretch it out in the anime so they can fit a certain time frame. So the manga doesn't have this big cooking competition with Sanji that pretty much filled a whole episode of the anime. There are others but the anime pretty much follows the manga pretty well. Captain smoker is starting to show up and that is pretty interesting. I look forward to more adventures that this series holds. I got pretty far in the anime so it is nice to see how different it is from the manga.

This is the point where I see a big difference in the anime versus the manga. Another example of them stretching out the timeline to fit a certain time frame. In the anime they try different things to find Sasuke but they all fail. In the manga, they don't do any of that. Naruto feels bad that he couldn't keep his promise and then heads out to train for three years. The story pretty much ends there. But what I like the most about this volume is that they bring in a little back story with Kakashi. He is one of my favorite characters, so seeing how he was able to get his eye was pretty interesting. I know the next volume will take place after the five years of training. I really wish that the author gave us some more episodes with the training that Naruto did during these three years. But beggars can't be choosers. I look forward to the next volume and reading more of the adventures. I know I missed a whole lot at this point when I was watching the anime. So it is really nice to be able to read all that I missed and I can get the story that everyone keeps talking about. Now I'm not so lost.

So until next time...

Finished reading Found

Hey there Bookies,

I just finished the book and I'm slowly trying to come back to reality. A whole lot happens in the book with lots of twists being thrown around. Like so much happens that I can't even tell you anything about the book because it will just ruin everything. All I can say is that it was very hard for me to put down the book at this point and I'm kind of sad that there isn't more. I want to know more about Luther (Mikey's enemy), what will happen to Troy, and Mikey's dad. There is so many unanswered questions and no more books. Which kind of sucks. Either way, go check out the series. It's pretty good and you will be begging for more just like me. Sorry I couldn't say more. If you read the book, you will understand.

So until next time...

Halfway through Found

Hey there Bookies,

Sorry for not posting for a while. The holidays came up quick and I had to focus on that for a little bit. So when Christmas is around the corner, I will be busy with all of that as well. Anyways, I can't remember all that I told you about the book so far.  So if some of this is a recap from the last post, you're welcome. Anyways, Mikey convinced his uncle to dig up his father, only to prove that he was alive. But something is weird. His father was apparently cremated and then placed in a casket. Not sure why you would do that, but it kind of feels like someone is trying to hide something. Anyways, Mikey is more confused as he goes home and starts basketball practice. Things end up being weird there as well. One player supposedly moved and another one failed a drug test. The one that failed the drug test says that he was framed and asks Mikey to help him out in clearing his name. Also Mikey finds out that Ema has somewhat a boyfriend that she met online. But I guess he goes missing and it is their next mission to figure out what happened to him. The are slowly making progress in all of the mysteries they are investigating. It is just a matter of time until we see which one gets solved first.

So until next time...

Started reading Found by Harlan Coben

Hello Bookies,

Still have sprained finger, but I'm still typing about the latest book I'm reading. Well, I haven't started reading it yet. This is the last book in a series that I started reading a while back before I started this blog. I know this for sure because I tried to find the author in my already read list and found nothing. So I don't remember much because it has been so long. I'm hoping reading this book will make me remember all that has happened. If not, it looks like I will be rereading this series.

So until next time....

Almost done reading Wild Crush

Hey there Bookies,

I'm still adjusting on how to type with nine fingers that the full ten. It's not easy and I tend to forget. Anyways enough of about my finger and more on the reason you are here. Turns out I did review the first book and I read what I said about the book. So I'm not as confused but I would have done fine if I didn't read my notes either. Anyways,the story is about the good for nothing Vic. Well, he isn't really good for nothing, but he has the reputation because of the fact that he isn't afraid to fight for what he thinks is right. Like beating a guy up because he ended up hitting a girl. If you ask me, we need more guys like Vic where I am from. He is in love with his best friend's girlfriend, but being the loyal friend that he is, he won't touch her. And then this is where things start getting annoying for me. Monika, aka Vic's crush, knows that something is up with her boyfriend. But she just plays it off most of the book. Willing to lie and play the games to keep her boyfriend's image as the star student. At some point something happens and she feels like the secrets she is holding are a huge weight on her shoulders. All the while Vic thinks he killed his best friend. My thought is instead of keeping the secret, put Vic's mind at ease and tell him the truth. She doesn't have to tell anyone. But I really feel like Vic should know. I'm hoping it will happen soon, so that way Vic can feel like he deserves to have a better life than what he was told he was going to have. Anyways, I have a bit of a ways to go until I'm officially done with the book. I might post when I finish, I might now. I haven't decided yet. But if I don't, you guys should go check out the series and give the author some love. The book is really good along with the series. I highly recommend it.

So until next time...

Started reading Wild Crush by Simone Elkeles

Hey there Bookies,

I've been getting a lot do lately now that I have a little more time on my hands. I'm still not supposed to be typing, but I will rest my finger once I'm done with this post. Maybe. Anyways, I own the first book of this series and I read it a while back before I even started this blog. I think. But I don't remember anything from the first book because it has been so long. The think I like about these books is that you actually don't have to read the previous books in order to understand what is going on. Even though it does help in some areas. I have no idea what this book is going to be about. I'm just in it for the adventure it holds for me. Like I haven't even started it yet, but I'm ready for the emotional rollercoaster it is about to put me on. Wish me luck guys.

So until next time....
