Trailer Talk! - Divergent!

Hello!

I wasn't expecting to be doing another one of these so soon, but I don't decide when trailers get released do I. So this afternoon (UK) or this morning depending on were you live in the world. Summit released a brand spanking new, full length trailer for the hotly anticipated Divergent film!

If you have yet to see it, watch below before continuing on.

Divergent Trailer!

Tagline: One choice can transform you

You may remember how disappointed I was by the original teaser trailer that was released a couple of months back. So the question is had my opinion changed now that We've got to see a little more?

Let's jump right in!

Trailer Talk! - The Hunger Games: Catching Fire!

Hello!

It's been a while since we did a trailer talk hasn't it. And since a new and final trailer for Catching Fire was released this week, I thought why not do a trailer analysis. It's only a short minute long trailer, but boy is it action packed and probably my favourite trailer of all the ones released for this film!

If you have yet to see it, watch below before continuing on.

The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, Final Trailer!

Tagline: Remember who the enemy is. & Every revolution begins with a spark.

You'll remember my disappointment at the trailer for Divergent which was a similar length to this, well ladies and gentleman I can assure you there was no disappointment when I watched this trailer, just lots of screaming and fan girling!

Let's jump right in!

Allegiant by Veronica Roth : A Review! **WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD**

This is the review I have been dreading writing. It's the book that I spent over a year longing and waiting for. It's also the book that once the ending was spoiled it took me a week after the release date to work up the courage to read it. Now having slept on it, I feel I'm in the right frame of mind to write an honest review.

Allegiant

by

Veronica Roth

Tagline: She Must Make Her Final Choice...

For those of you who don't already know (and honestly if you don't know have you been living under a rock?) Allegiant is the third and final book in the New York Times Number 1 Best Selling Divergent Series by Veronica Roth.

DO NOT READ AFTER THE JUMP IF YOU DO NOT WANT THE BOOK TO BE SPOILED, THIS ENTIRE REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!

Top 5 Books To Movies Tag!

Hello everyone,

I am forever banging on about my all time favourites books, and my all time least favourite books. But I've never talked about this topic. Which books do I want to see become a film. Honestly I don't know why I haven't done this tag before.

Maybe it's because sometimes I worry that doing Tag posts are a little unimaginative and a bit lazy, but we're here we're doing this, I mean why wouldn't you want to know which books I would love to see on the big screen! 

I can can guarantee you that not all of my top five favourite books will be on this list because some of them just wouldn't translate well on to the big screen or so I feel. 

Speaking of things translating well on to the big screen, can we just talk for a second about how insanely excited I am to hear that there is a film version of Wicked! in the works, now that is something I would definitely line up to see!!

Books I Did Not Finish! - 09/09/2013

Hello Everyone, it is Monday and you know what that means!

It's time for another Book's I Did Not Finish. This week I am featuring a series, that I'm not sure really counts. Anyway. It's a series where as usual I freaking LOVED the first book, only to be somewhat let down by book 2. Yeah that's usually what happens. Only I know I downloaded the ebook of book 2, I remember starting it but I don't remember finishing it, and I also know I haven't read the last book, so it's getting featured, and with a little research, I'm going to try and decipher why I suddenly stopped reading book 2 and if I will continue on. So as you can tell today's instalment is slightly different form all my previous ones!

Today's book is . . . .

Matched

by

Ally Condie

Tagline: Watched By Society. Trapped By Rules. Freed By Love?

Shall we get on in to this book then? (That made no sense but let's just pretend that it did. Will you do that for me? Please?)

Let's research and discover together, if I will ever finish this series!

Trailer Talk! - Divergent!

Hello everyone happy Wednesday the week is almost over!

Today I present a trailer analysis. And it's a trailer that I have been waiting for, for a very long time. Ever since set pictures started to be released (in fact ever since I heard filming had started) The trailer I will be looking at today is.... (well you can already see in the title can't you!)

Divergent!

Now I saw this trailer on Sunday during the VMA's, and if any of you follow me on Twitter then you know that my reaction wasn't quite on the scale of what it was when I saw the new Hunger Games: Catching Fire Trailer a while back. 

Now have you watched the trailer? If not go watch it now before continuing on below!

Books I Did Not Finish! - 26/08/2013

Hi everyone, how's the bank holiday weekend going for all my British readers? And for those of you who don't have a bank holiday, I'm sorry, but have a nice day with what ever it is you have to do today!

For today's Books I did not finish post I will be featuring yet another series, I'm starting to think that I should just rename this whole segment as 'Series I Did Not Finish'. Because I don't tend to read a whole lot of standalone novels, and I'd usually try to finish reading a book if it's a standalone. But when it's part of a series, and I already don't like where the the story is heading by the end of book one, then well, I guess to me it deserves to be here.

However when it comes to this particular series, I'm probably in the minority when it comes to my opinion on this books plot.

Uglies

by 

Scott Westerfeld

Tagline: In a world of extreme beauty, anyone normal is ugly.

Okay I'm just going to get this out of the way now because it has nothing to do with why I never picked up the other books in this series. But that thing above 'UGLIES' really pisses me off. Why the need to act like it's a death match between YA dystopian books? And anyway this book is nothing like The Hunger Games, so whether Uglies came before it or not, it's not in the same league, we all know that it's only there to drag in The Hunger Games fans, so if that's you take this warning, it isn't anything like the Hunger Games so don't go into this thinking that it will be similar, the only similar thing that could been as being similar is that it is a YA dystopia. 

Rant Over. On to the review. 

Books I Did Not Finish! - 12/08/2013

Hello everyone, it's that time of week again! Welcome to another Books I Did Not Finish! The place were instead of telling you about all the books I loved I share the ones that range from disappointing me to me out right hating them!

This week the chosen book lies some where in the middle of the above statement. Why? Well this book is a sequel. A sequel to a book, I very much enjoyed, you can read the review I wrote of book one here. Sadly the sequel did not live up to my expectations and so it is with regret that I have to include it in this series.

The Elite

by

 Kiera Cass

Tagline: 35 GIRLS CAME TO THE PALACE. ONLY 6 REMAIN.

Like most people who enjoyed the first book I recognised it had it's faults, the world building wasn't great, it didn't really work as a dystopian (more on this later) and yes it was cheesy, but it was the cheesiness that made it enjoyable in it's Bachelor-esque game show plot for the Princes heart. Yet even in this the sequel The Elite some how failed.
