Writer's block?

So it has been ages since my last review..
Yeah, yeah I'll stop with the dramatics now, it has been two-three weeks and it's not a big deal. Yet it is. See the problem is that's how long I have gone without reading a book and it doesn't sit well with me. I lose myself when I am not reading. "Fuel to my soul" kinda thing.

It isn't like I haven't touched a book at all or anything, because who am I kidding, I can't survive like that. I am still stuck on Emma! It is so frustrating that I can't finish that book, I just can't. Done with half of it but can't bring myself to be done with it. It is true, language of that era was very twisted, like the words are all strung together and no one says what they mean. You have to read a line twice to get the underlying meaning.

I mean I love, LOVE,  Pride and Prejudice  but now I feel it is solely for Mr. Darcy. He is the best male character written in history and my #1 Fictional Boyfriend. Yes, there is something inherently romantic about the way he and Miss Bennett talk, but that romanticism is seriously missing in Emma. The focus is on gossips and frills and set-ups and overall very boring which is why I haven't finished it yet. I have sworn not to read another book till I am done with this. And to add to my motivation is the fact that I have ordered the first and second part of ~ The Song of Ice and Fire, which I unfortunately haven't read yet and can't wait to.
Yayie!
Go Amazon!

Back to my books

So long peeps

Xoxo

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Book Review: Leah On The Offbeat

You know it is a good book when it ends up schooling you. I am too old to read high school drama anymore but seeing people rave about Simon vs The Homosapiens Agenda and Leah On The Offbeat, I finally gave LOTO a try. And boy am I glad. Initially sceptical, because the writing style is aimed at teenagers, the first few chapters were a bit difficult to get through. I found the language exceedingly plain, it was overall too kiddish.  It was when the characters developed in the next few chapters, that I was hooked. I have yet to read such great character development in a high school book.  Let's start off with Leah. She is your average protagonist -  angry at the world, a broken family, overthinking things, overweight, smart, the only difference, she isn't lonely. She has a lot of friends. Oh and the fact that she is bi, secretly. As we delve further into the book, her layers peel off. She is in love with a girl who is dating her best friend who happens to be a guy.

Are We Better Than This?

Children near trashcans jumping in joy, You see them playing, Do you see the hunger in their eyes? A woman on the street Walking fast at night, Was she out partying or working How is either of the two an invite? There is fear in every corner Suppression in shadows Filth on the road, Careless storms behind closed doors. Not for you though, You only saw what you wanted to see - The world as it should be. - PS
