Sunset on the beach

Sunset on the beach

Pink blue and orange race across the sky to be the first to bleed into the crystal blue water,

Chased by the center of the universe as it begins to melt into the vast ocean,

 A wave stretches to blanket the waiting shore leaving behind  a multitude of treasures given up by the sea

Toes dig into slowly cooling Sand that was warmed from A touch by  the sun as it hung in the sky


A cool  breeze  engulfing in its intent to sooth

Seigels make themselves known  in a choreographed song and dance overhead

Salt lingering on the tongue from a kiss blessed by the Ocean


A show given by the master orchestrator.

Vampire Academy by,  Rochelle  Need

This novel is a part of the series what I personally have not finished.  This storyThe kisser
Blends   Romance two kinds of empires and action.   This series follow the girl named Rose who is a vampire and her experiences in a "

Sounds interesting right? In this scenario a kiss is not just simply a kiss. It lets The kisser experience the  thoughts and emotions of the person the kids. this of course has chaotic consequences for all parties involved.

Book Tropes part 1

 Greetings my fellow book lovers!  Today I want to talk about book tropes. A book trope is a certain scenario that can be found in numerous books. For instance I have read quite a few books where the characters take a road trip and  find romance on the journey. Now I know  with so many people writing books   there will be situations that are similar to one another.  today I want to talk about the book tropes  I have read  more than one of.  Let's jump right into it.

A  deadly touch

 Holding hands hugging and kissing are an impossibility for the characters found in the books of this particular  Book trope.   Because w .hen they touch a person it kills.  The person with the killer  Touch usually  falls prey to other  people, Becoming  a political pawn. Or it serves as a catalyst to further along the story.

 A Book  with the storyline

 Shatter me  by;   Tahareh Mafi

http://www.amazon.com/Shatter-Me-Tahereh-Mafi/dp/0062085506/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1460470564&sr=8-1&keywords=Shatter+me

 264 days that's how long Juliet has been locked up for murder. She has not been allowed physical contact with anyone since then. Her Touch is lethal. No one has been able to figure out why. And the possibility for low has been more than she dreamed.   Until a hot guy comes who works for  The establishment appears. Dare she hope for the possibility to be near someone again?

Angelic mission;

 In this trope  generally a fallen angel must come to earth to redeem himself. He or she has to save
either a single person or all of humanity. Also finding love in the process.  To go along with this there are also those books where an Angel, who is not fallen  is sent to protect a particular person weather because they hold the  Key  To something or they themselves are an angel. Who can resist that?

Words

 Words, they are the foundation of our lives. The Bible says that God spoke the world into existence.

 If they are strong enough to create the earth they must have enough power to impact our every day

life.  Not only can words hurt emotionally I think that they can shake a persons self image. Words are

so easily spoken with very little thought for their consequences. They can be used to inflict emotional

 and  psychological  harm if not used properly. The effects of which can last a lifetime.  Solution for

this unnecessary onslaught of pain. Simply consider the words that are coming out of your mouth. Do

they up lift? Can they be seen as something  constructive?  If the answer is no then just don't say

them. A lot of heart ache can be avoided by the proper usage of our words. Even if it seems as if

someone is not taking what we say to heart it's reaching them.  A kind word can be the bridge

someone needs to get from a bad day to a good one and you could be the builder of that

steppingstone.  It's a great responsibility that we have been given so let's consider our words before

we say them. We should hold ourselves accountable to what  words we speak. Let's be that healing

touch that someone might need. While words have the capacity to do great harm they also can create

great beauty. For authors and POETS  words  are the lifeblood of their craft. We can use words to

create something breathtaking like Beethoven used notes to comepose his famous fifth Symphony. Or

like the paints that Michelangelo used to create his masterpiece on the ceiling of the Sistine chapel.  

But wait! You may say, "I'm no poet I also can't write my way out of a paper bag". Don't let this hold

you back from creating your word masterpiece.  Some of the worlds most beautiful works of art are

not captured on canvas or recorded on a piece of paper. Take the beauty of a sunset with its light blue,

 oranges, and pinks. Or snow as it gently falls to the waiting blanket on the ground below.  Here one

moment and gone the next let our words be like those works of art if not touching millions then

touching just one. Out of the thousands of words we say every day we can string a handful of them

together and make a difference. Isn't it our responsibility to do so? Let us not carelessly speak words

into the universe today, but making a conscious effort to speak only the words that are life-giving.

Add to the artwork of words today and write a poem or short story. Be brave and try your hand at

writing a novel. We are all artistic and it is time we started acting like the artists we are.

In this story Anna  discovers that  she is descended from a demon
And her job is  to be a bad influence on society. She must figure out how to save humankind  and put a stop to the evil forces.

 Why was  this book so memberoble,
 One of the most memorable scenes in this book was when Anna met her dad " The Demon" for the first time.  It was sweet. I know it doesn't sound like it would be, I mean it's demon. Despite it's flaws it has earned a place on my unforgettable reads shelf.

 Delirium, by Lauren Oliver book one in the delirium series 

This book takes place in a dystopian society where love is  forbidden. Yet one girl decides to fight the system  for the right to love. 

 Why was this book so memorable?

 I will not to  tell you about  the scene because I do not want to  give  spoilers but the  Final scene in the first book of the trilogy was powerful. The entire book was powerful to me I cannot recommend this book highly enough if you haven't read it I would say.

Healer, the  sixth book in the O'Malley series by Dee  Henderson

This series  follows a family as they figure out love, faith, and find a few killers.

 Why was this book memorable?

 This story is about a girl who struggles with OCD in social anxiety. She meets a boy and a deep friendship  occurs .as their friendship deepens her grasp on reality loosens
 Once you figure out a way to keep everything in order?

 Why was this book  memorable?
 I think that  some of the  scenes that stick out to me are the ones  when The main character battles with OCD, I struggle with it myself so I could identify.

 So far my Most memorable have been of the good  variety .  Now let's talk about those books that I just couldn't get into or was turned off by.  We've all come across them.






Dark places by Gillian Flynn

 This is about a woman who is struggling with her family's murder, And her brothers corresponding conviction. Soon a family secret will come to light.

 Why does this book so memorable, in



 I did not care for her writing  style. I didn't appreciate the way she described thing.  I found myself not able to eat while I was reading her  book. Although, her story line was solid. There was also a really odd twist at the end. I could not get past her description. I almost did not finish her book

 Now we are down to the last book I want to talk about today. It is memorable for how much I did not like it. In fact, I didnt finish it and there is no way I'm to continue with the series.

Shatter me by,  Tahereh

 This book is another dystopian fantasy. It follows the life of a girl who has a touch that kills people.  Others will try to use this power for their advantage and she must figure out how to stop  them .
 Why was this booktubes so memorable











 I thoroughly did not like her writing I didn't care for the main characters in her room on the lawn at one point I thought my iPad was broken because she kept repeating herself in her dialogue. Also the love triangle was gringe  worthy.    I know that this is not a very popular opinion. However, I must stick to my guns.

 Whether I don't like these books or not. I am grateful to the authors for giving me an  experience to remember.  What are some of your most memorable read? Let me know and we can discuss. And of course as always made the pages be with you – Anna
