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 .

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

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?

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 .

Book Review: the body finder Kimberly derting

The Body Finder (The Body Finder, #1)The Body Finder by Kimberly Derting
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

September 6 -September 30
Summary – Violet Ambrose is grappling with two major issues: Jay Heaton and her morbid secret ability. While the sixteen-year-old is confused by her new feelings for her best friend since childhood, she is more disturbed by her “power” to sense dead bodies—or at least those that have been murdered. Since she was a little girl, she has felt the echoes that the dead leave behind in the world… and the imprints that attach to their killers.

Violet has never considered her strange talent to be a gift; it mostly just led her to find the dead birds her cat had tired of playing with. But now that a serial killer has begun terrorizing her small town, and the echoes of the local girls he’s claimed haunt her daily, she realizes she might be the only person who can stop him.

Despite his fierce protectiveness over her, Jay reluctantly agrees to help Violet on her quest to find the murderer—and Violet is unnerved to find herself hoping that Jay’s intentions are much more than friendly. But even as she’s falling intensely in love, Violet is getting closer and closer to discovering a killer… and becoming his prey herself.

Review – Violet has this gift she can find dead bodies she gets a feeling it could be a taste or a smell she got the gift from her grandmother and the people who kill have that Ecco on them when violet was eight she found a dead body years later she is living with this secret the only people who know are her mom dad aunt and uncle and her best friend Jay who she now has feelings for he sort of changed from they guy she’s known for years he’s starting change into a guy and the girls at school are starting to notice also . When celebrating the last day of summer Jay Chelsea And violet go to the lake and while Jay and violet are out on the lake violet sense’s something a dead girl violet freaked she was unsettled cause the only way for violet to be okay after is for the body to be buried . There is a dance coming up and violet really wants Jay to ask her but Grady asks her and Jay is going with Lissie a popular girl . More girls are going missing and being killed so violet decides she wants to find this killer and asks Jay to come with her and he does even though he doesn’t agree with it when they go to the mall she senses something but it was nothing Jay freaks and avoids her but Grady starts giving her more than friendly attention and violet and her friends all go to a party Grady ends up assaulting Violet Jay steps in and takes violet home or tries to violet was pissed Jay had been avoiding her but she ends up letting him and he kisses her and there they cross the line from friend to more and then another girl goes missing a girl from the party so violet joins the search party and finds him the guy killing and she is so happy that he is going to be rotting in jail her Jay are officially dating and there going to the dance together violet thinks that she is safe so she goes for a run until she sense’s someone fallowing her no not fallowing hunting her the killer the other guy was the partner but Jay finds her before he does so Jay and violet go to the dance and then he’s there the killer and he’s a cop that is sick and he almost kills violet and Jay finds them violet hits the guy with her crutch and they run but the guy shoots Jay but just barley grazes him and her uncle kills the guy this book was crazy with romance and mystery and seeing the point of view of the killer was interesting and creepy loved it .

Favorite quotes –
Jay decided that it was his turn to gloat . You pined for me he asked stupid grin and all. Violet hit him on the arm shut up ! She shook her head I’m pretty sure she was talking about you anyway.

“I was just waiting for you to want me as much as I wanted you.” His words were quiet but carried one hell of an impact. “I knew we were going to be together; it was just a matter of time. I kept hoping that you would figure it out. But for a smart girl, you’re a little dense, Vi. I kept bringing up Lissie Adams, and showing you the notes she was leaving me, hoping that you’d get pissed enough to finally admit how you felt about me.”
―The Body Finder

“He loved her.
Jay Heaton, her best friend since childhood was in love with her. He didn’t say it but she knew that it was true.
And the part that really freaked her out, the part that caught her completely off guard, is that he wasn’t alone. Because even though she’d been denying it for a long, long time, it had always been there… waiting beneath the surface of their friendship. And now that it was out there was no going back.
And it was so weird to even be thinking it but…… she was in love with him too.”

Book Review: fangirl rainbow rowell

FangirlFangirl by Rainbow Rowell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Read from Sep 22- 25

Summary -n Rainbow Rowell’s Fangirl, Cath is a Simon Snow fan. Okay, the whole world is a Simon Snow fan, but for Cath, being a fan is her life—and she’s really good at it. She and her twin sister, Wren, ensconced themselves in the Simon Snow series when they were just kids; it’s what got them through their mother leaving.

Reading. Rereading. Hanging out in Simon Snow forums, writing Simon Snow fan fiction, dressing up like the characters for every movie premiere.

Cath’s sister has mostly grown away from fandom, but Cath can’t let go. She doesn’t want to.
Now that they’re going to college, Wren has told Cath she doesn’t want to be roommates. Cath is on her own, completely outside of her comfort zone. She’s got a surly roommate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words . . . And she can’t stop worrying about her dad, who’s loving and fragile and has never really been alone.

For Cath, the question is: Can she do this? Can she make it without Wren holding her hand? Is she ready to start living her own life? And does she even want to move on if it means leaving Simon Snow behind?

Review- This Book Is about Cath she is obsessed with Simon Snow she writes Fanfiction since forever it’s all she knows now she is going to college with her twin sister and her sister wants to not room with her and Cath is mad when she get there she meets her roommate Reagan she is kind of sour and moody and Levi he’s very smiley and happy and bubbly . Cath is Taking creative writing and is an english major (like me ) and She meets Nick and she and him are writing together and she thinks that she likes him I really see Cath in me like the awkwardness and the writing and being so into a fandom that it’s like a part of you . Cath and Nick start going to the library to write and Levi picks her up every time how sweet and Cath reads Levi her fanfiction that was so cute and then she helps him study and they end up falling asleep together and kissing and then Regan comes in and she also explains that her and Levi aren’t dating she and Levi have been broken up for awhile . Levi texts Cath to come to his party she doesn’t text back after allot of thinking she goes with Regan and when she gets there She see’s Levi kissing some girl and she storms out she doesn’t want to ever think about that again she avoids Levi until she gets a call that her dad is in the hospital and she tries to get her sister to go with her but Wren is to wrapped in her life drinking her mom back into her life and doesn’t come she reluctley calls Levi and asks him to drive her and he does and when they get there he asks why she is avoiding him and she tells him and he also tells her that the kiss didn’t mean anything like WTF Levi I love you but what are you thinking you like Cath and then she tells him to leave and to leave her alone and after time and allot of writing Simon Snow . Nick also wants to submit the story that her and he worked on and she gets no credit what an ass . so Levi comes to her door and tells her how he feels and they start dating and Oh my god Cath and Levi are adorable together she doesn’t really want him touching her but when she does she can’t stop that’s what made me laugh and Wren is in the Hospital for drinking to much and her mom is there Cath hasn’t seen her mom since she left and she doesn’t even want to see Wren when they can that is kind o messed up . So apparently Wren has a boyfriend it was the guy who threw the punch at the bar that time ( I like them together ) Wren and Cath make up . Levi and Cath are good together they’re happy oh and Nick has the guts to come to Cath and say well I need you to put your name on the story so I can win and she doesn’t I was like you go Cath . and in the end when the last Simon Snow book comes out her and Levi read together this book was amazing I loved it I would of loved more and to know where her and Levi end up but we can figure that out ourselves.
…. Christina

Favorite quotes .I don’t trust anybody . Not anybody . And the more that I care about someone , the more sure I they’re going to get tired of me and take off.

Idea … if your board and you miss me you should write some dirty fanfiction about us . you can read it to me later page

Thats the ultimate kind of broken . the kind of damage you never recover from.

Book Review: onyx Jennifer l armentrout

Onyx (Lux, #2)Onyx by Jennifer L. Armentrout
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Aug 3 – September 17
Summary – Being connected to Daemon Black sucks…

Thanks to his alien mojo, Daemon’s determined to prove what he feels for me is more than a product of our bizarro connection. So I’ve sworn him off, even though he’s running more hot than cold these days. But we’ve got bigger problems.

Something worse than the Arum has come to town…

The Department of Defense are here. If they ever find out what Daemon can do and that we’re linked, I’m a goner. So is he. And there’s this new boy in school who’s got a secret of his own. He knows what’s happened to me and he can help, but to do so, I have to lie to Daemon and stay away from him. Like that’s possible. Against all common sense, I’m falling for Daemon. Hard.

But then everything changes…

I’ve seen someone who shouldn’t be alive. And I have to tell Daemon, even though I know he’s never going to stop searching until he gets the truth. What happened to his brother? Who betrayed him? And what does the DOD want from them—from me?

No one is who they seem. And not everyone will survive the lies…

Review – I read the first one in April and fell in love with daemon and the concept of aliens made of light .this book was amazing Daemon and Katy are connected and Daemon wants to be with Katy but Katy thinks its only cause of the connection. but there is a new guy in town his name is Blake him and Katy get along well and we learn some things about him Also we find out Blake isn’t what we think oh and Katy is mutated because daemon healed her and Blake is just like Katy . Blake starts to train Katy to use her abilities daemon doesn’t trust Blake things they discovered like Dawson daemons brother is alive and so is Beth and Beth is kind of crazy .Katy mom’s boyfriend is also Beth’s uncle WTF . and blake went crazy and handed simon over to the DOD what thats kind of crazy dee and adam came to pick up katy and well Adam died I was so sad i liked adam and dee together . After that katy and daemon finally get together i was happy but sad about Adam . will drugged Katy and put her In a cage he wants to be mutated to and so daemon kind of heals him and then Katy and daemon leave to find Dawson .but he isn’t there but when they get back he’s there at the house I was like WTF OMG I can’t wait to read the next one .

Favorite quotes
“Augustus Waters was a self-aggrandizing bastard. But we forgive him. We forgive him not because he had a heart as figuratively good as his literal one sucked, or because he knew more about how to hold a cigarette than any nonsmoker in history, or because he got eighteen years when he should’ve gotten more.’
‘Seventeen,’ Gus corrected.
‘I’m assuming you’ve got some time, you interupting bastard.
‘I’m telling you,’ Isaac continued, ‘Augustus Waters talked so much that he’d interupt you at his own funeral. And he was pretentious: Sweet Jesus Christ, that kid never took a piss without pondering the abundant metaphorical resonances of human waste production. And he was vain: I do not believe I have ever met a more physically attractive person who was more acutely aware of his own physical attractiveness.
‘But I will say this: When the scientists of the future show up at my house with robot eyes and they tell me to try them on, I will tell the scientists to screw off, because I do not want to see a world without him.’
I was kind of crying by then.”
― John Green, The Fault in Our Stars
“Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book. And then there are books like An Imperial Affliction, which you can’t tell people about, books so special and rare and yours that advertising your affection feels like betrayal”

Oh I wouldn’t mind hazel grace . It would be a privilege to have my heart broken by you. Page 176

The Cinderella story maybe my favorite it starts with this girl named Cindy and she is made fun by these girls she goes to this fairy tale lecture and then the story begins Cinderella has horrible step sisters and step mother and there is a ball and the step mother throws Cinderella into this cellar where Cinderella is surrounded by ghosts and she just wants it to stop so she sells her soul to a fairy godmother she wants to step mother and step sisters to pay for what they’ve done she goes to the ball and then she comes back the fair godmother tells her the prince is coming And what about the step sisters and mother well they are attacked and the prince and Cinderella live happy ever after. Hansel and gretel was an interesting story of a girl who runs away from her strict parents with her brother and they hitch a ride and they hear a very different story about hansel and gretel they run away and find this house and then Hasel is caged up and gretel has to do house work and as she tries to get the key she turns to this monster and well hansel ends up eaten the girl learns from they and goes home . Rumplstilsken is about a girl being pregnant and her boyfriend wants to get rid of it and she doesn’t know what to do a lady comes up to her to tell her a story when a girls father tells a king that his daughter can spin gold the girl doesn’t know what to do cause she can’t and he said he would have her killed a dwarf hears her cries and helps her but she has to give him her first born child she agrees the king ends up marring her and she has the baby boy rumplestilskin comes back and she doesn’t want to give it up so he tells her if she can guess his name she can keep her baby’s he searches high and low and finds it but on the boy’s thirteenth birthday he comes back looking different and curses the son so the girl learns children are important . Sleeping beauty this guy is told from this girl he likes to get some drugs from this guy this woman drops a story book and Brett reads it sleeping beauty is told about the curse and this servant likes her she is in a deep sleep but to be awaken the boy must truly love her or he will die so the servant goes to her and she wakes they are to be married but the princess is not into it and is with another guy and then this guy ends up dieing and the princess never is awoken again and Brett learns from that . The robber bridegroom two sisters fighting over a guy in the story is also about sisters but one sister is to get married and the other sister pushes her off the ledge and she ends up marring the prince and ends up being a meal . Legacy this one was my second favorite the story of the story book the girl finds it in this house when she is with her bother the book has power and it changes her town and finds this old guy who ends up being her brother wow .
All these stories were so cool but they were a little mature with the artwork alone all the girls breasts looked like balloons I don’t think I will be continuing with the rest of the novels
