THERE WERE SO MANY CUTE GUYS UGH

MAL’S LITTLE SPEECH AT THE END OF THE BOOK THOUGH OMFG I DIED

The part right before they kissed for the first time?? or when? lol, but I loved that moment asdjksj.

One of the best books I've read this year so far tbh, I can't wait for the sequel (june 4 come faster!!!). It was really good. The plot and the characters were amazing. And I completely loved the world Leigh created. And man, that plot twist, I almost died and of course it still hurts :(

Even though The Darkling is evil and I should hate him, I just can't omfg, I love him (sorry, it's impossible for me not to love him!), he was my favorite character, I just wish we could see more of him, though. There's something fascinating about him that makes you love him, idk.

And Alina was so great, she's so badass and I just loved her. And I grew to really like Mal (at first it was just like "okay") but he's so nice, there were moments I hated him for being so cold to Alina but I loved their relationship <3 

And maybe I'm crazy but I still ship Alina and The Darkling a little bit, OKAY SORRY, YOU CAN SLAP ME NOW.

Another character I really liked was Genya, even though at the end I don't have very clear (and neither does Alina lol) if she was truly Alina's friend... but yeah, I loved her.

Gah, I know The Darkling didn't die at the end of the book, but if he does die in the last one, I WILL START A RIOT. Sorry but my favorite characters are not allowed to die. Nope.

(Not including Bloodlines because if I did, all of my answers would be different!)

haha, I was debating whether or not to tag you ‘cause I was like “she’s probably gonna get tagged 50 billion times”, but then I was like oh well, I’ll do it anyway. You’re welcome :)

You're lucky I like you. LOL

* There are too many questions to answer and i don't want to fill everyones dash so ill post my own 11 questions and tag people.

1. Favourite book series?

2. What author do you think is underrated and what author do you think is overrated?

3. Do you have a book you are embarrassed to tell your fellow book worms that you have read and quite possibly enjoyed?

4. What is your take on the e-reader vs physical book debate?

5. Favourite classic?

6. What popular book or book series makes you feel like you are the last person to read it?

7. When in a bookstore do you find yourself judging other people based on the books they have in their hands?

8. What do you think about older people reading YA?

9. Do you have a problem with people who give links to free books?

10. What is the weirdest place you have read a book in?

11. You’re in a dinner with five characters and an author. Choose a character who you’d like to be alone with, one to be your best friend, one to say beautiful words during the toast, one to cook and a villain to spice things up. And the author can be your favourite one, or the one you must hate, so you could express your hate to him/her. (**I stole this from takenbyabook because it was such a good question)

Another one huh. You’re doing something right when you get people all fired up. They spent time and effort sending you all of these notes. They couldn’t get you out of their minds and just HAD to send you something. As far as I’m concerned, you win.

Well I actually turned anon off for a few days at the suggestion of someone but I just turned it on a couple of hours ago and look what I got.

we should all just have a les mis party and not invite these peasants. (but seriously, these anons are ridiculous and you really don’t deserve all the crap you’re getting about it.)

Party at my blog!!!!

It’s okay, /I/ love your blog!

Rule 1 - Post the rules.

Rule 2 - Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post and then make 11 new ones.

Rule 3 - Tag 11 people and link them to your post.

Rule 4 - Let them know you have tagged them

Questions:

1) If you could transplant yourself into any book you’ve read, what would it be?

Maren: I think this is the most difficult question on the list, and my responses will probably change as I read different books, but for today I'll say the hospital ward from It's Kind of A Funny Story because it seemed like such a place of healing for Craig, and I could use a little bit of that.

Nicole: I'm with M on this one, because of the book I'm reading I'm going to say the Argo II from Mark of Athena.

2) If you could travel to one place in the entire world, where would you go?

Maren: Right now, I'd probably say Montana to visit Nicole.

Nicole: Upstate NY. Or Illinois.

3) Favorite restaurant?

Maren: There's this place in my hometown called the Red Dove Tavern and they make the best food, the best cocktails, and have the best wine selection. It's also a nostalgia thing-- my parents took me there a lot, so I have fond memories.

Nicole: I'm with M on this one too. I love the Dove. Even if I don't go there for the food it's enough to go there for the specialty drinks.

4) What’s your worst fear?

Maren: HEIGHTS. *shudders*

Nicole: I think M is lying on this one because I've seen her freak over bats in our room. Mine is snakes. I can't even look at one on tv without getting nightmares.

5) You can only watch one Tv show for the rest of your life. Which one will it be?

Maren: Antiques Roadshow. I love the stories.

Nicole: Discovery Channel.

6) Have you ever broken any bones? If so, how?

Maren: I have broken both my wrists twice. Mostly because I fall down a lot. I was a clumsy child and I have grown into a clumsy adult. Once, I had both my wrists broken at the same time from two different falls. Sigh.

Nicole: Actually, no, but I did have a spinal fusion when I was 12.

7) Hoards of zombies are chasing you. Whats your preferred weapon?

Maren: A katana (Japanese samurai sword), a la Tom Imura from Rot & Ruin.

Nicole: Some sort of stick to beat them down with?

8) Would you rather be a cyborg or a werewolf?

Maren: A werewolf!!

Nicole: Werewolf, all the way.

9) You’re thrown into the Hunger Games. What’s your strategy?

Maren: Hmm... mix of Thresh and Foxface. I'd do what Thresh did first, running into my comfortable habitat, and making it work by myself for as long as I was able. Then I'd pull a Foxface and start following other tributes and yanking their food. I'd study up on my poisonous plants though.

Nicole: Hunt, hide, and let the others kill themselves off.

10) Would you rather be able to be invisible or be able to fly?

Maren: I'd rather be invisible. Please see my biggest fear (above).

Nicole: Invisibility, I think.

11) And the most pressing question of all: How many slices of meat do you put on your sandwich?

Maren: At least three. Otherwise the meat to bread ratio is all off. If the sandwich only consists of meat and bread, then probably up to five slices. If there are other things on the sandwich, not as much meat is required.

Nicole: Depends on the sandwich. You want the meat to bread ratio just right. If it's two normal slices of bread I'll typically go with two slices of meat (preferably turkey).
