OK, asta da veste!  Din Academia Vampirilor am citit doar primul si al doilea volum, care m-au impresionat si mi-au placut mult mult mult.
   Ma mir ca cei de la Leda s-au decis in sfarsit sa publice aceasta serie in editie de chiosc. Oricum, la cat de groase sunt cartile, vor avea ceva de lucru. Oricum, bravo lor! Si eu voi incepe sa cumpar, dar asta de pe la volumul 4 incolo.



   Pana atunci, uitati:

 VAMPIRE ACADEMY RULES!

Am castigat aceasta carte pe blogul Walking on letters, in cadrul concursului de fideliatate. Inca de la inceput am fost putin sceptica, mai ales pentru ca nu tind sa ma iau dupa toate recenziile minunate,ci si dupa descrierea romanului, pe care cel putin nu m-a atras de loc. 

  Max este o fata ce poate fi numita oricum, numai obisnuita nu. Ea si cei 5 prieteni ai ei au fost candva inchisi in "Scoala", unloc groaznic unde erau facute experimente pe ei. Cu timpul, ei au evadat, ajutati de un doctor care i-a ingrijit, si pe care l-au considerat ca un tata. Ei bine, acea persoana i-a abandonat si acum traiesc singuri in pustietate. Cei cinci copii incredibili, cu super-puteri, nu numai ca trebuie sa se confrunte cu problemele unei vieti traita de unii singuri, dar mai au pe cap si niste Vanatori. 

    Se nareaza la persoana I si gandurile lui Max sunt exprimate coerent, nu sunt deloc plictisitoare, iar ritmul cartii este alert. Extrem de alert. Ei, cei 5 super copii nu sunt chiar atat de neajutorati, deoarece in urma experimetelor, au ajuns sa aibe aripi, oase usoare precum de pasare, putere adevarata, si mai mult: fiecare tinde sa mai aibe un har. 
  
    Micuta Angel este persoana cea mai apropiata a lui Max, care pe langa aripi, mai si citeste gandurile. Angel este rapita. Acum, mi-a placut ca povestean nu s-a limitat la nararea din perspectiva curajoasei Max, ba chiar s-a ramificat in mult mai multe fire narative. 
     Max, alaturi de Fang si Nudge pleaca in cautarea ei, in vreme de Iggy si Gasman raman acasa. Probleme? Mari de tot. Primii trei trebuie sa se intoarca la scoala, si asta le evoca amintiri urate, iar in plus ceilalalti doi sunt atacati de Vanatori. M-au uimit ideile celor doi, avand in vedere sclipirea lui Iggy, care e orb, si Gasman, ce are 8 ani. 

     Calatoria lor este total electrizanta. Mi-a placut la nebunie. Nu m-am plictisit nicio clipa. Nici macar perna tare nu m-a mai incomodat.
Max invata sa aibe incredere si in altii decat Stol, iar echipa formata de cei 5 copii este super tare! Si mai este si o subtila poveste de dragoste...
      Mi-a placut "Maximum Ride". Titlul este chiar numele protagonistei, curajoasa, inteligenta si altruista Max.

     Si sa va mai dau cateva indicii peste care veti da citind cartea: dand la o parte Scoala si Institutul, veti vedea dificultatii unei vieti pe fuga, super-puteri, probleme in gasirea identitatii-parinti, motive si mult mult suspans.
     Nu mi-a placut sfarsitul pentru ca m-a lasat in suspans. Nu pot decat sa astept continuarea cu sufletul la gura. Nu regret nicio clipa ca m-am apucat sa citesc "Maximum Ride". James Patterson se pricepe, nu gluma :)
Acum serios:mi-ar fi placut sa fie mai dezvoltata poveste de dragoste. *

 Laura was so sweet an se gaved me an interview. Check it out:

1.      I know that this is the question that every writer hates, but everyone always asks: How do you get inspired? From where do you get your ideas?


I always have a lot of fun writing fantasy. I love asking those 'what if' questions and building worlds around the answers.

For THE HALLOWED ONES, I was wondering who would be best-equipped to survive a large-scale disaster. It occurred to me that the Amish would be uniquely equipped to survive. They are incredibly self-sufficient and are not dependent upon things we take for granted in our world, things like electricity and cars.

I live not too far from a large Amish settlement. When I was a child, my parents would take me to visit, and I was fascinated by a world very different than the one I lived in. I'd see Amish girls my age over the fence and wonder what their lives were like.

2.      What did you always want to be? How do you decided to be a writer? At what age do you decided you want to be a writer?

I've always been scribbling, since I was old enough to hold a crayon. I didn't believe, until recently, that other people would want to read what I wrote. It's incredibly exciting to hear from folks who've enjoyed the stories I tell. 

I work at a library now. I have, at various times, worked in criminal justice, in information technology, and in government. Dreams change, but writing has always been with me.

3.      How do you keep on staying motivated? I know that to write a book it`s a really hard work,so how could you continue this work?

I do my best to keep a writing calendar and to commit to writing a certain number of words a day. Otherwise, I tend to procrastinate. If I don't set deadlines for myself, I would never finish a book.

4.      I know that THE HALLOWED ONES is a great story, so how do you decided you want to write fantasy? When did you begun to write this book? In what year did you begun and how long this book take to be write?

It took me a few months. I started on it during National Novel Writing month in 2010, which always serves as a kick in the pants to get moving on a project!

5.      THE HALLOWED ONES have extraordinary characters. Where do you start a book, with plot, characters or dialogue?

I'm a plotter. I like to have the skeleton of a story mapped out before I begin - the blank page scares me! If I have the bones of the story created, then the writing is just a matter of adding flesh to the skeleton.

6.      Where do you write? Do you write with music, or do you have something that help you to have imagination?

My favorite place to write is out on the patio, where I can hear the frogs and the crickets. I can't write very fast or well in front of the television.I have to really shut the door on distractions to get focus. I can't write very well in coffee shops or around other people.

7.      How was your life 13 years? Did you keep a diary? It was a special notebook or just an ordinary notebook? You decorated it, or you have draws in it? How was the cover?

I did keep lots of notebooks and diaries.  They were just ordinary spiral-bound notebooks, like the kind I had in school. But I kept them hidden in the bottom of a drawer and did decorate them with stickers.

8.      What books did you read between 12-18 years? What was your favorite?

I read all the fantasy books I could get my hands on. My all-time favorite is Robin McKinley's THE HERO AND THE CROWN. I read it when I was a pre-teen, and fell in love with fantasy ever after. It was the first book I'd read that had a female protagonist who slew her own dragons. I was hooked. I've read it at least a dozen times, and always see something new and brilliant in it.

9.      Do you like your new writer life? Is it beautiful, or how much did your life changed from the moment you published THE HALLOWED ONES?

Life is pretty much the same for me as it was before - I still have the same job, working at the library, and live in the same place. But I'm very proud and happy to see the book in print - that made all the difference.

10.  What advice do you have for teen writers?

Stick with it. I really suggest that writers try National Novel Writing Month at least once - it really develops the habit of writing every day.

11.  When is your birthday? And how old are you?

I am older than most pixies, but younger than most dragons.  ;-)

12.  What is your favorite quote?

"No matter where you go, there you are." It's from an old movie called THE ADVENTURES OF BUCKAROO BANZAI.

Thank you very much, you are incredible! What message do you have for your fans from Romania?
Thank you  so much for interviewing me, and I'm thrilled to have fans in Romania! It's been such a pleasure to meet you and your readers!

 Mi-am cumparat "Pe cuvant de spioana" impreuna cu revista Bravo Girl si am citit-o repede-repede. Eram foarte curioasa in privinta aventurilor lui Cammie, super spioana ce are rolul principal in poveste. Ei bine, nu am fost, din fericire, dezamagita, ba din contra, romanul mi s-a parut inca si mai bun decat "Daca ti-as spune ca te iubesc, ar trebui sa te omor".



    Cammie este un personaj ideal de roman pentru adolescenti. Timida, desteapta, descurcareata, totusi cu un iz de curaj si judecata, ea este un amestec intre tinerete si greutatea de a lua deciziile corecte. OK, mai pe scurt: un personaj foarte dulce, care prin naturaletea lui te face sa-l iubesti :)

    Dupa cum stiti, ea s-a despartit de Josh, primul ei iubit. Acum Academia Gallagher ascunde mai multe secrete ca niciodata, combinand furisatul pe culoare, trei fete care formeaza o exhipa imbatabila, dispozitive de ultima, daca nu chiar de generatii avansate, mult suspans si indragosteli, daca pot zice asa.
     Alaturi de Bex, Liz, si chiar si Macey, cu care se imprieteneste Cammie din ce in ce mai mult, descopera un proiect numit "Blackthorne". Ciudat, nu?

      Ele tot incearca sa afle, ce si cum, cine si ce, si fac asta prin modalitati faorte ingenioase. M-au uimi cunostintele fetelor, dar pana la urma, ele tot adolescente sunt, si duritatea si pericolul vietii de spion in devenire este mixat cu temerile si nesigurantei varstei de 16 ani.
      Cum sa va povestesc fara sa va spoiler-ez: Blackthorne, toata treaba cu el,o veti descoperi singuri. In anumite momente anticipam diverse intamplari, dar rareori se intampla ca mine. Concluzia: Ally C se pricepe sa surprinda
Operatiunea "Blackthorne" le va da peste cap, va surprinde audienta, si, ei bine, va fi o intriga superba.
       Si apoi, cand inevitabilul se produce si Cammie se intalneste din nou cu Josh si DeeDee, si apoi mai sunt o gramada de detalii...Offf, ce pot sa zic, merita. Mi s-a paut o continuare mult mai complexa, se vede evolutia personajelor, sunt surprinse in impostaze amuzante, sunt simpatice si te atasezi de ele.

     Secretele, dialogurile, profesorii, astea si toate celelalte dau un nou strat (al tortului cu etaje numit "Fetele Gallagher") caruia cireasa de pe tort il apropie de o caret superba.
      Mi-a placut. Punctul culninant a fost intr-adevar bun, mult mai reusit decat in romanul precedent. Ce sa mai tot lungim poveste, a meritat din plin 11 lei.

       V-o recomand daca aveti chef sa va relaxati cu ceva usor de citit, amuzant si plin de aventuri cu spioni si spioane. O poveste dulce si simpatica...

NOTA: 5.5

 Cat am fost plecata, desi blogul a luat o mica pauza, postasul nu! Pe langa faptul ca ma cam plictisesem la mare, ce sa zic, asta e, cand am venit am avut cateva surprize dragute.

Am primit o gramada de carti,dintre care mi-am cumparat una singura. Sa va arat:

De la Lexi George am primit o copie ARC a cartii "Demon hunting in the deep south" (Thank you sooo much Lexi! I already love this book)



Cartea ese cu autograf, pentru mine :) 

 De la editura Art, careia ii multumesc enorm pentru ocazia de a citi un roman atat de diferit si de interesant, am primit "Marele Nate" de Lincoln Pierce, pe care doar am rasfoit-o, ca si pare superba!
Mi-am cumparat impreuna cu revista Bravo Girl cartea "Pe cuvant de spioana", recenzia careia va aparea asta seara pe blog. Si care chiar a fost buna!

 Stiti ca va tot vorbeam de carti in franceza? Ei bine, am primit de la o prietena foarte apropiata urmatoarele:
  "La cliniwue de Docteur H" e un roman politist extraordinar de bun, care m-a intrigat inca de la inceput. Dupa ce recenzia lui va aparea pe blog, sper din tot sufletul sa dati si voi o sansa acestor  carti, daca nu o faceti deja.

Inca ceva. Doar cateva Swag-uri. De la Jennifer Haymore am primit urmatoarele:
Thnank you Jen! I love them! Really cool :)

 Iar acesta este premiul meu de pe blogul "Trepassing zone":
Ei bine, am ce citi, si ma apuc de indata de recenzat! Voi ce ati mai primit?

 Pana pe data de 8 septembrie, inclusiv, voi fi plecata plecata plecata! Ultima saptamana de vacatna, din fericire ovoi petrece departe de grijile de scoala dar, din bacate si de blogusor. Cum nu il impart cu nimeni, si nu am pe cine sa las sa se ocupe de el, in timpul asta nu voi mai posta.

 Khelsey was so cute and gaved me an interview. Check it out:

I know that this is the question that every writer hates, but everyone always asks: How do you get inspired?From where do you get your ideeas?

KJ- I get most of my ideas when I am walking my dog, and in the shower.


What did you always want to be?How do you decided to be a writer?At what age do you decided you want to be a writer?

KJ- Growing up I wanted to be a police officer. I really didn’t want to be an author until 2 years ago. I was reading The Vampire Academy and thought I could do this. I was 22.

How do you keep on staying motivated?I know that to write a book its a really hard work,so how could you continue this work?

KJ- I take a lot of breaks. Sometimes the voices in my head won't talk to me, so I would read. Reading helps me when I can't write. Kallos is my largest book, about 253 pages and it took me a year to write.


I know that Acidalia is a great story, so how do you decided you want to write fantasy?When did you began to write this book?In what year did you began and how long this book take to be write?
KJ- After read Richelle Mead's series, and a bunch of other YA books I wanted to try. I have always been in love with gods and goddesses, so I wanted to write something with them in it. In January 2011 I started researching gods and goddess and began to write Kallos. Acidalia I wrote after I wrote Kallos. I sent Kallos to Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly April 17 2012. A month later I had an email saying they wanted Kallos.


Acidalia has extraordinary characters.Where do you start a book,with plot,characters or dialogue?
KJ- I let my characters speak for themselves. I know a lot of authors plan their books out, and I don’t. I like to leave it in their hands, and hope they play nice.



Where do you write?Do you write with music, or do you have something that help you to have imagination?

KJ- I write on my couch, and I write to music, I have my MP3 player's volume on the highest! Kallos and Acidalia were mostly written to 30 Seconds to Mars.


How was your life 13 years?Did you kept a diary?It was a special notebook or just an ordinary
notebook?You decorated it, or you have draws in it? How was the cover?.

KJ- At 13 I was shy and very boy crazy!! I tried to keep a diary but I couldn’t keep up with it. But it was pretty, the cover was pink with white flowers on it.


What books did you read between 12-18 years?What was your favorite?

KJ- I loved The Princess Diaries, and I just found out there are like 16 books in that series now.


Do you like your new writer life?Is it beautiful, or how much did your life changed from the moment you published Acidalia?

KJ- I love all the people I am meeting because of it. Another thing I love are the reviews!! I love knowing what people think of it. I cant wait for everyone to read Kallos.



What advice do you have for teen writers?

KJ- My advice is don’t give up, and if you love your story then keep at it. Let your friends and family read your story, and ask them what they think. I am lucky to have some amazing author friends that kept my spirits up when I sent my book in.


When is your birthday? And how old are you?

KJ- My birthday is April 17, and I am 24 years old.


What is your favorite quote?

KJ- We loved with a love that was more than love.
--Edgar Allan Poe

Thank you very much, you are incredible! What message do you have for your fans from Romania?

KJ- I hope you all enjoy Acidalia and Kallos. And thank you all for the love and email I am already getting.


 I was a little surprised when I noticed that "Acidalia" have only 9 pages. BTW? I got this book for review from Khelsey Jackson, and you can buy it after 15 september 2012, when is her release. 

  It was a great beginning. I noticed too that this book will have a continuation, named "Kallos". It seemed a extraordinary book. And look what: I founded out that It`s about a love triangle, with two extraordinary boys, names Ian and Sean, that she has a main character who I liked how is speaking, thinking, who makes sacrifices! 




   I can say also that this little story makes me think that the next, that I can`t wait to read, is more intresting and have more suspence, and a love of mystery. It makes me put a lot of questions!

I enjoyed the athmosphere! It was great induced. You can see the author skill.
    Definetly, I enjoyed the way that Khelsey is writing.
    Just one think I didn`t like: why only 9 pages??? I want more!


 Am inceput sa scriu o poveste pe bune pe Wattpad. Uitati descrierea:

"Jade se confrunta cu trecutul: Blake- pe care l-a iubit din tot sufletul ei si cu care a impartit mii de secrete si momente superbe a iesit din viata ei de un an in mod bizar. Cu o zi inainte sa fie ucis, Blake vine la scoala la Jade, ca si cum ar fi vrut sa-i transmita un mesaj. Intr-o lume a minciunilor, a prieteniilor misterioase, in care Jad le are pe Julie si Keisha(mai mult sau mai putin alaturi), ea trebuie sa decida daca il va da pe Blake uitarii sau va incepe sa sape in trecut si sa infrunte inamici pe masura. Doar o decizie ii poate schimba radical viata... Iar fata va afla ca nimic nu a fost vreodata de a parut sa fie, ca razbunarea este aproape, si ca greselile trecutului bantuie etern."

 Acesta este cover-ul. Bineinteles, nu este facut de mine, ci o poza de pe internet care mie mi se pare ca se potriveste perfect! 

Suna interesant?

Gasiti capitolul unu aici

OMG! O stiti? Poate o recunoasteti din serialul "Victorious", in care o joaca pe Jade-superba, gothica, matura-, Jade. De ceva vreme am inceput sa o remarc pe plan muzical. Adica, serios, ati ascultat vreo melodie cantata de ea? Daca "Givin` up" vi s-a parut prea imorala, atunci cover-ul de la "You and I", sau "Jealous Guy" sau alte melodii sunt pur si simplu superbe!

Duetul cu Ariana Grande(Cat Valentine in Victorious) mi s-a parut super !
   In plus, aspectul amandurora e de nota 10 :)

  











Acesta este cover-ul de la "You and I". Versiunea asta imi place mai mult decat aceea a lui Lady Gaga.
Am mai cautat cantece si OMG- in asta canta "Everibody`s fool" de la Evanescence pe fundal.
Si...voua cum vi se pare Liz?


On the precipice of her sixteenth birthday, the last thing lone wolf Cat Crawford wants is an extravagant gala thrown by her bubbly stepmother and well-meaning father. So even though Cat knows the family’s trip to Florence, Italy, is a peace offering, she embraces the magical city and all it offers. But when her curiosity leads her to an unusual gypsy tent, she exits . . . right into Renaissance Firenze.
Thrust into the sixteenth century armed with only a backpack full of contraband future items, Cat joins up with her ancestors, the sweet Alessandra and protective Cipriano, and soon falls for the gorgeous aspiring artist Lorenzo. But when the much-older Niccolo starts sniffing around, Cat realizes that an unwanted birthday party is nothing compared to an unwanted suitor full of creeptastic amore. My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century
Can she find her way back to modern times before her Italian adventure turns into an Italian forever?

Nu-i asa ca suna super? Plus coperta e superba :)

Inca un cantec care imi place muuult  :)


 Aceasta este prima mea postare de acest gen, asa ca fiti indulgenti! M-am apucat si eu de scris mai serios. Aceasta este un short story, insa curand voi posta putin din creatiile mele personale(care sunt lungi) si din fanficuri. Interesati?
