Quote
That was my goth stage where I decided I’d never get the girl of my dreams  because of my scars. Not to mention the hairstyle . But then she slammed a door handle into my gut. And when a girl does that to a boy, it means she likes him.

Book Review: is everyone hanging out without me Mindy kaling

Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? (And Other Concerns)Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me? by Mindy Kaling
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Mindy Kaling has lived many lives: the obedient child of immigrant professionals, a timid chubster afraid of her own bike, a Ben Affleck–impersonating Off-Broadway performer and playwright, and, finally, a comedy writer and actress prone to starting fights with her friends and coworkers with the sentence “Can I just say one last thing about this, and then I swear I’ll shut up about it?”

Perhaps you want to know what Mindy thinks makes a great best friend (someone who will fill your prescription in the middle of the night), or what makes a great guy (one who is aware of all elderly people in any room at any time and acts accordingly), or what is the perfect amount of fame (so famous you can never get convicted of murder in a court of law), or how to maintain a trim figure (you will not find that information in these pages). If so, you’ve come to the right book, mostly!

In Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?, Mindy invites readers on a tour of her life and her unscientific observations on romance, friendship, and Hollywood, with several conveniently placed stopping points for you to run errands and make phone calls. Mindy Kaling really is just a Girl Next Door—not so much literally anywhere in the continental United States, but definitely if you live in India or Sri Lanka.

I don’t read books like this like ever but I love mindy as a person and her show the mindy project this book made me laugh I have so many lines highlighted they made me laugh I watch mindy’s show the mindy project and she is exactly as funny in written form I feel like I can relate to her being a curvy girl myself and being made fun of harsh right or when she hit her best friend in a production she was doing she gives you a great laugh I’d say if your going to read this read it with the audio book it’s so much better mindy is an awesome person she talks how she got to write for the tv show the office it’s one of those books you can read and say can I be best friends with her .

favorite quotes

“Teenage girls, please don’t worry about being super popular in high school, or being the best actress in high school, or the best athlete. Not only do people not care about any of that the second you graduate, but when you get older, if you reference your successes in high school too much, it actually makes you look kind of pitiful, like some babbling old Tennessee Williams character with nothing else going on in her current life. What I’ve noticed is that almost no one who was a big star in high school is also big star later in life. For us overlooked kids, it’s so wonderfully fair.”

There are many teenage vampire books you could have purchased instead. I’m grateful you made this choice.”

Book Review: city of fallen angels Cassandra Clare

City of Fallen Angels (The Mortal Instruments, #4)City of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

summary- The Mortal War is over, and sixteen-year-old Clary Fray is back home in New York, excited about all the possibilities before her. She’s training to become a Shadowhunter and to use her unique power. Her mother is getting married to the love of her life. Downworlders and Shadowhunters are at peace at last. And – most importantly of all – she can finally call Jace her boyfriend.

But nothing comes without a price.

Someone is murdering Shadowhunters who used to be in Valentine’s Circle, provoking tensions between Downworlders and Shadowhunters that could lead to a second bloody war. Clary’s best friend, Simon, can’t help her. His mother just found out that he’s a vampire and now he’s homeless. Everywhere he turns, someone wants him on their side – along with the power of the curse that’s wrecking his life. And they’re willing to do anything to get what they want. At the same time he’s dating two beautiful, dangerous girls – neither of whom knows about the other one.

When Jace begins to pull away from Clary without explaining why, she is forced to delve into the heart of a mystery whose solution reveals her worst nightmare: She herself has set in motion a terrible chain of events that could lead to her losing everything she loves. Even Jace.

Love. Blood. Betrayal. Revenge. The stakes are higher than ever in City of Fallen Angels

Review- The forth book in the mortal instruments was really really good so the aftermath of what happened in city of glass allot is happening Clary is training to be a shadowhunter Simon is dating isabelle and mia yeah that’s smart simon no it’s not Luke and Jocelyn are getting married that’s so cute but allot is happening shadowhunters are found dead and so is a child the shadwhunters are wondering what is going on Clary thinks she can create a rune for the dead to explain what is happening . Jace he’s having nightmares that he kills Clary that’s terrible I felt bad for him but he also wasn’t saying anything to Clary I kind of wanted to scream she’s your girlfriend tell her . Simon is in danger even though he has the the mark of caine and people turn into salt after he doesn’t know who is after him he is also approached by a vampire Camille for them to join together . Clary decided to go to this church and find out about the children that are being turned into demons like her brother and was attacked by demons isabelle came . Simon gets a new band mate Kyle and ends up rooming with him after telling his mother he’s a vampire and her freaking out . after doing a show Simon goes backstage and ends up bitting morreen also Mia and isabelle find out not good oh and Kyle is also mia ex boyfriend and his name is Jordan Kyle and he’s a werewolf and he bit mia and it was the first time he bit someone he’s was so angry with himself mia thought that he’d done it before . Jace is still having nightmares and clary thinks he needs to go to the silent brothers and finds out after that jace was brought back a demon got into his head and that’s why he’s having these nightmares . The shadowhunters catch Camille with Simon help and she only asks to speak with magnas and Alec starts to get angry finding out that camille is magnas ex and he’s dated allot . at the party Simon sees morreen who was found dead but was apparently turned into a vampire she takes Simon with him where there is a demon Lilath and she wants simon to turn Sebastian into a vampire oh and Jace is being controlled by Lilath and brings clary . Alec Isabelle Jordan and Mia go look for simon and they go look for him and notice the business card as Lilath . So simon has to bite Sebastian or clary will die so clary cuts jace’s rune and he’s back to normal simon kills lilth by stepping in his mark really killed her and in the end Sebastian wakes up wtf and is a vampire and is controlling jace no no no this book was awesome .

Favorite quotes-
But you hardly know him, she said he could be a serial killer I did have that thought . I checked the apartment out , but if he’s got a ice cooler full of arm in it I haven’t seen it yet .

Yes, she’s bleeding to death upstairs, but i thought i’d avoid telling you right away , because i like to draw the suspense out.

Remember London ? the parties at de quincey’s ? Remember Will Herondale ? I know you that boy or yours, that Lightwood. They even look alike .

but i watch my brothers give their hearts away and think don’t you know better? Hearts are breakable, “And I think even when you heal, you’re never what you were before

Book Review: the art of letting go Anna bloom

The Art of Letting Go (Uni Files #1)The Art of Letting Go by Anna Bloom
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Summary When Lilah McCannon realises at the age of twenty-five that history is going to repeat itself and she is going to become her mother—bored, drunk and wearing a twinset—there is only one thing to do: take drastic action.

Turning her back on her old life, Lilah’s plan is to enrol at university, get a degree and prove she is a grown-up.

As plans go, it is a good one. There are rules to follow: no alcohol, no cigarettes, no boys and no going home. But when Lilah meets the lead singer of a local band and finds herself unexpectedly falling in love, she realises her rules are not going to be the only things hard to keep.

With the academic year slipping by too quickly, Lilah faces a barrage of new challenges: will she ever make it up the Library stairs without having a heart attack? Can she handle a day on campus without drinking vodka? Will she ever manage to read a history book without falling asleep? And most importantly, can she become the grown-up that she desperately wants to be.
With her head and her heart pulling her in different directions can Lilah learn the hardest lesson that her first year of university has to teach her: The Art of Letting Go

Book Review: one night stand Margaret wild

One Night

One Night by Margaret Wild
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

October 2 – October 3

Summary – Gabe is the best looking guy in school—that’s why his friends send him to get girls to their party. Helen is not much to look at—that’s why her friends want her to come along. But Helen gets under Gabe’s skin in a way no other girl has.

It was one night. One night with lasting consequences. Now Helen has to decide if she wants to keep the baby—and if she should tell Gabe, who hasn’t spoken to her since their one night together.

Filled with love, fear, and the tough choices born of casual acts, One Night is a passionate and compellingly readable novel about teen life, the hardships of parenthood—and the joy and forgiveness between family and friends.

Review – one night changed everything for Helen she goes to a party and meets Gabe a player with the girls he’s known for one night stands but Helen finds out she is pregnant .she tries to tell Gabe but he doesn’t answer she leaves her house gets a job and Gabe well he’s had alot he’s been through his mom left him he has unopened letters from her . Helen has a baby boy she’s living with nice people and she finally has to tell the father and he is a good father considering he ignored Helen . Helen parents are interesting I hate her father and her mom doesn’t really have a voice I love verse books there kind of like poetry in book form this was an interesting story about a teen pregnancy it was realistic and I like that .

Quote “You’re a tough little bird, Hen. Never forget that.”
