ANIMAL FARM

ANIMAL FARM by George Orwell 144 pp. Penguin Group. £8.99. (Ages 13 and up) ISBN 9780141182704 Rating: ? Stars     This book is set in a future when animals are much cleverer than now. And because of their cleverness, the pigs started a revolution against the humans. Pigs could speak fluently in English unlike the other animals, and that gave them the power to be leaders. But, the story that follows only happened a few years after that...     Their first leader, Old Major, was kind and fair who knew animals should be equal.

Snowball was admired because he came up with a clever idea to build windmill. Sn...

Top Ten Best Book Covers of 2012



Today is day two of my most favourite week of the book blogging community- the Top Ten lists of 2012! This year's Top Ten of 2012 is hosted by Lisa from A Life Bound By Books, Jessica from Confessions of a Bookaholic, Jaime from Two Chicks on Books, Mindy from Magical Urban Fantasy Reads, and Rachel from Fiktshun!

Admittedly I had a lot of trouble coming up with what I consider to be the Top Ten Book Covers of 2012 (for some reason I can't think of a single cover that has really BLOWN me away, unlike in previous years)- therefore I decided to change things up a bit and make today's topic The Top Ten Book Covers of Books I've Read in 2012.

*In no particular order*

1. "Easy" by Tammara Webber: If anyone knows this cover model or a guy like him feel free to send him my way!

2. "Fated" by Alyson Noel: While I wasn't an uber fan of this book I will keep it on my shelf solely for the cover.

3. "Illuminate" by Aimee Agresti: I am a sucker for anything fallen angel related, therefore this is right up my alley!

4. "The Immortal Rules" by Julie Kagawa: I don't know what it is about this cover, but I just really like it. I'm sad to see that it has had a cover update.

5. "The Pledge" by Kimberly Derting: Two words. Lady Gaga-ish. That is all.

6. "The Friday Society" by Adrienne Kress: This is perhaps the most applicable cover I have ever seen before. Aside from that I love how fun and lighthearted it is!

7. "Angelfall" by Susan Ee: See comment for book 3. I legitimately want a gigantic poster of this cover.  Oh, hell. Maybe even a tattoo. 

8. "Defiance" by C.J. Redwine: It was almost entirely the cover of this book that convinced me to request it to review. This cover is full of WIN. 

9. "Revived" by Cat Patrick: In all honesty I have little to no idea how this cover relates to the book, but I really don't care! I just really love the seafoam-ish colour and the colour variations. 

10. "The Diviners" by Libba Bray: I love that this cover is quite like anything else in the world of YA.

CITY OF FALLEN ANGLES

CITY OF FALLEN ANGLES The Mortal Instruments Book 4 by Cassandra Clare 480 pp. Margaret K. McElderry Books. $13.99. (Ages 13 and up) ISBN 9781481455992 Rating: 4 Stars   This book is a start of an new adventure. The enemy has lost and a new one rises. I think it is a good idea the author made a new enemy. Now the book wont end!   I don't like how the author divides the book into many parts. It makes me think its a very large book and sometimes I get bored. It makes the book seems like a very very big book. And most pages are wasted for the page to say a new part and also the quote/poem the author has made.   In a new story there will be new characters. The villain in the book has lost now if the next villain will be bigger new characters will come. The are new characters now like Mia, Jorgan and other characters.   I don't like the part when a partner does not let the other one go in a fight because they don't want to lose them. Its like making a...
