The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Winning will make you famous.
Losing means certain death.
In a dark vision of the near future, a terrifying reality TV show is taking place. Twelve boys and twelve girls are forced to appear in a live event called the Hunger Games. There is only one rule: kill or be killed.
When sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen steps forward to take her sister's place in the games, she sees it as a death sentence. But Katniss has been close to death before. For her, survival is second nature.
My Review : A fucking mazing
This is one of the most realistic and amazing books i have read in such a long time ( besides the fault in our stars and the perks of being a wallflower)
let me start by saying this being my second Dystopian novel first was divergent but i love that book but had some issues with it but luckily this book i did not.
So many don't like this trilogy because it's kids killing kids but i disagree. i have found it to be very gripping and i couldn't stop reading for a minute. Katniss Everdeen is such a kick-ass main character that i loved so much. i do understand why so many people dislike the movie directed by Gray Ross but i loved it they did change a few things but the changes they did do are okay with me.
overall I highly Recommend this book to anyone who likes dystopian novels 5/5 stars highly loved this action packed futuristic world.

Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare
Magic is dangerous but love is more dangerous still.
When sixteen-year-old Tessa Gray crosses the ocean to find her brother, her destination is England, the time is the reign of Queen Victoria, and something terrifying is waiting for her in London's Downworld, where vampires, warlocks and other supernatural folk stalk the gaslit streets. Only the Shadowhunters, warriors dedicated to ridding the world of demons, keep order amidst the chaos.
Kidnapped by the mysterious Dark Sisters, members of a secret organization called The Pandemonium Club, Tessa soon learns that she herself is a Downworlder with a rare ability: the power to transform, at will, into another person. What’s more, the Magister, the shadowy figure who runs the Club, will stop at nothing to claim Tessa's power for his own.
Friendless and hunted, Tessa takes refuge with the Shadowhunters of the London Institute, who swear to find her brother if she will use her power to help them. She soon finds herself fascinated by and torn between two best friends: James, whose fragile beauty hides a deadly secret, and blue-eyed Will, whose caustic wit and volatile moods keep everyone in his life at arm's length . . . everyone, that is, but Tessa. As their search draws them deep into the heart of an arcane plot that threatens to destroy the Shadowhunters, Tessa realizes that she may need to choose between saving her brother and helping her new friends save the world. . . . and that love may be the most dangerous magic of all.
My Review : Cassandra Clare does it again....... 5/5 Stars...
okay guys let me tell you that the Mortal Instrument series by Cassandra Clare is my favorite series of all time. so when i found out there was a prequel series called the infernal devices. i jumped on amazon to get it and i was so not disappointed in the least with this book. Clockwork Angel is the first book in this series. so this book follow Tessa Grey who moves to find her brother to live with him well let just say that is not exactly what does down.
instead Tessa is kidnapped by two ladies called the Dark sisters, who claim her brother send them to take Tessa throughout the city of London. instead we find out that The dark sister are in fact warlocks who work for the mystery man known as the Magister who wants to marry Tessa for some unknown reason. soon later Tessa is saved by the shadowhunter who protect the world from demons and Tessa is allowed to say at the London Institute and learns that she is in fact a downworlder with a power no one has ever seen before the power to turn herself into another person which i think is just awesome just saying.
things get really intense when we find out that a man knows as Mortmain who seems to know more of shadowhunter world that he should sense he is in fact a mundane and that he is responsible for these clockwork creates that are not make by heaven or hell which is scare indeed to the Shadowhunters.
over all i very much enjoyed this book Cassandra Clare has such a way of writing that i was blown away at like every other chapter. there are lots of twists in the mortal instruments series but the ones in clockwork angel i was sitting there thinking WTF.............. where in the hell did that come from.................
but yes i really really really enjoyed this book i really loved that it look place in 1878 in the Victorian London time period totally awesome.... 5/5 stars :D

Ali's Pretty Little Lies by Sara Shepard
Before there was A, there was Alison DiLaurentis. Boys wanted to date her, girls wanted to be her, and somebody wanted her dead. . . .
It's the end of seventh grade, and Alison DiLaurentis and her friends are the girls of Rosewood Day. Ali runs her clique with an iron fist, and she's got enough dirt on Hanna, Emily, Aria, and Spencer to keep them in line. But Ali's hiding a dark secret of her own, something so huge it would destroy everything if it ever got out. She's desperate to keep the perfect life she's worked so hard to build, but in Rosewood deadly secrets have deadly consequences. . . .
Set in the weeks leading up to Ali's murder, this special Pretty Little Liars tale is told by the prettiest little liar of all: Ali herself. For the first time ever, we see how the mystery began . . . and how Alison DiLaurentis's life ended.
My Review : SARA SHEPARD CANNOT WRITE A BAD BOOK, THIS BOOK BLEW ME WAY.... 5/5 Stars
okay i have not read a pretty little liars book in 9 months. so when i got to get Ali's pretty little lies i was so happy. yes people have told me to have read the first 8 books first but to me i don't think you have to do that. but i would say you should read the first 5 books first so you can get some history and back story on the 5 main characters.
this book is by far the best pretty little liars book i have read to date. This book is about Alison and Courtney DiLaurentis who are twins and when Courtney takes ali's place as the new Alison Dilaurentis lets just say things get well very intense. i really liked this book because it was a prequel to the 17 other PLL novels. and we got to see how the friendships between the four girls where formed and we got to also get inside Alison's head for the first time ever. over all i freaking loved this book and wish she would write another prequel someday 5/5 starts really really enjoyed :D

Purification by Dejana Vuletic
Time is running out. One of the Medallions is still missing, and now Blake is in the hands of Prince Balthazar, wasting away in a prison cell until the day he'll be sacrificed to bring Lord Orion back to life. Dessa Calder is dead, and the Keepers have lost all hope.
Except McKenna. Determined to rescue her best friend and fulfill a destiny her mother left unfinished, McKenna takes on a greater challenge than she bargained for. The powers that once belonged to Dessa have somehow transferred to McKenna, giving her the power to set right everything her enemies have destroyed.
But being a Keeper isn't that easy, especially when you aren't sure you can completely trust the people who claim to be your friends
My Review : THIS IS WHAT I CALL A GROUND BREAKING FINALE 5/5 STARS GO READ THIS BOOK RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!
Okay so after waiting about a year for the final book of the keeper of light trilogy let me just say this book was totally worth the year long wait. Purification by Dejana Vuletic it diffidently the best book out of the trilogy. we open with totally horror with the truth of dessa death which totally broke my heart into a million pieces. everyone feels the impact of sadness loss pain and heart acne. when you read this book and you see how completely heart broken Chris is when he see Dessa's cold stone broken bloody body i had to just stop reading and cry for like 30 minutes because this is a character we have been with for 2 books and have really gotten to know over the course of this story. Purification is also the most painful book in the trilogy to read because all of out beloved characters fall victim to pain, loss and utter tragedy because losing dessa to me felt like it changed these characters it make them really see who who they were and it make them so much stronger and more powerful people. this book has one of the biggest twists and turns that i have ever read it a book before. i wont completely tell you what's it's about in detail but i'll say it is connected to Balthazar. this is also my favorite book in the trilogy and when i got to the end i so did not want it to end and i am very glad with the end the story came to a very beautiful end and we got to experience such a beautiful story from start to finish. thank you so much dejana for not only writing this story but for creating such heart felt characters that i will read and reread or years to come once again thank you so much.....
