About the book:(from Goodreads)
It seems too good to be true. After centuries of bitter strife and fatal treachery, the seven powers dividing the land have decimated one another into an uneasy truce. Or so it appears. . . . With the death of the monstrous King Joffrey, Cersei is ruling as regent in King’s Landing. Robb Stark’s demise has broken the back of the Northern rebels, and his siblings are scattered throughout the kingdom like seeds on barren soil. Few legitimate claims to the once desperately sought Iron Throne still exist—or they are held in hands too weak or too distant to wield them effectively. The war, which raged out of control for so long, has burned itself out.(more)


My Review: 4 out of 5 stars

"He's so Tyrell he pisses rose water" ~Cersei

I love John Lee's voice! so nice & beautiful such great variety!BRILLIANT!

Wh:oa the changed of POVs is a total game changer! and more new characters.Some back stories and flash backs also love stories.Some parts that's quite boring but everything's pretty much interesting!

Podrick's so funny & very much confused whether to call Brienne My Lady or Sir.Oh boy! :))))

Still lots of deaths and unexpected scenes.Revenge better served cold pwahaha!

I wished there's more arya scenes >.< I'm always looking forward to that :Oh my!.And Sansa I hope she could count herself lucky she's somewhat way better off.

Cersei definitely thinks she's like her father perhaps even better without a cock haha!

When Sir Jamie & Cersei's scenes clash it's so funny going through Jamie as Tyrions words seems to echo inside his head for screwing. Although he still thinks of such unlikelyhood.

OMG! I'm so freakin excited for book 5 what's happening on the otherside?! XD

Videos

I think I still got a lot of travel vlogs and all sorts of things in my memory card stashed somewhere that I haven't compiled yet like my trip to San Francisco zoo aww..well I'll try to get into it during my freetime as I'm almost done clearing unwanted/unnecessary clips that I got into my phone and camera's life/POV oh dear so that's what its like being an inanimate object haha! Anyway,I just thought I'd post an update.How you doin? :D

City of Ashes by Cassandra Clare

:Oh dear! I love the cover but I'm not really sure where the story is going since a lot of things happened in book 1 D:

Eona by Alison Goodman

About the book:(from Goodreads)Of the five contenders for power, one is dead, another in disfavor, and still the wars rage as alliances are made and broken. Joffrey sits on the Iron Throne, the uneasy ruler of of the Seven Kingdoms. His most bitter rival, Lord Stannis, stands defeated and disgraced, victim of the sorceress who holds him in her thrall. Young Robb still rules the North from the fortress of Riverrun. Meanwhile, making her way across a blood-drenched continent is the exiled queen, Daenerys, mistress of the only three dragons still left in the world. And as opposing forces maneuver for the final showdown, an army of barbaric wildlings arrives from the outermost limits of civilization, accompanied by a horde of mythical Others—a supernatural army of the living dead whose animated corpses are unstoppable. As the future of the land hangs in the balance, no one will rest until the Seven Kingdoms have exploded in a veritable storm of swords...(more)


My Review: 4 out of 5 stars

I really like roy avers voice also the shift of characters POVs I'm really surprised :0

In half a heart beat a lot of people died.SEVEN BLOODY HELLS!

Valar morghulis!

That moment when I realized Daenerys is one of the most kickass female fictional character. I wanna learn & speak valyrian! Dracarys!

Everything sounds so convincing I don't know which one/who to believe anymore.There's no safe place or when you think you are..it ends there.

Well at least Sansa got a bit of character development and Arya seems to be everywhere.Jon Snow don't know anything you bastard! Yngritte gets on my nerves saying the same old lines over and over why can't she just say it instead of saying "you don't know anything Jon Snow" ugh
Jaimie looks like a changed man I mean like holy sheeeet I can't believe they actually did that to him.I'd like to ship Brienne of Tarth & him (Jaimie) so weird I know but it might actually work. XD

Sam the slayer Gods be good!

There are a lot of things going on and moving about in this book it's absolutely wonderful! George RR Martin made killing off characters looked flawless!

Book 1's in 12 series

A pile of books I never thought I could have but did accumulate over time so crazy I know!

The Maze Runner by James Dashner

The Hundred thousand kingdoms by N.K Jemisin

this looks quite magical & action pack!

Evermore by Alyson Noel

oh this looks really good or so at least that's what I got from the synopsis (I got a box set for a bargain!) can't pass that XD

                                           Here, There Be Dragons by James A. Owen

there's this time I got so obsess into dragons that I just bought them haha! I'm missing book 2 & the last from this series.The cover of each book looks divine!

Eragon by Christopher Paolini

I saw the movie it was ok though some say it's inaccurate so I'm definitely checking the book out I'm not sure if they're making any  movie part 2

Foundling by D.M Cornish

Series of Questions

Yes that’s some of it and the answers to all that are really simple which is family,fate,destiny,friends,something new,a taste of adventure because of all that I’ve met people that became part of me intentionally or not I believed a part them exists within me and I in them things and experiences in life that can’t be bought  yes they’re all PRICELESS.I posted this because I know I’m not the only one feeling the same way as I always thought I did..We’re not alone,speak now!stand up! Write or type anything,jot down those flights of ideas,nonchalant gibberish thoughts, I would like to always remember this part of my life wherein I would just indulge and see where I go as I wake up to nightmares,daydreams,reality, what I’ve been through, done that, a box full of sunshine,darkness and inspiration  I could open up and recall Oh so that’s what it’s like way back hmm..I never thought of it that way especially some crisis that existed to other s that are non-existent to some part of my life hmmm those type of things.

About the book:(from Goodreads)
Time is out of joint. The summer of peace and plenty, ten years long, is drawing to a close, and the harsh, chill winter approaches like an angry beast. Two great leaders—Lord Eddard Stark and Robert Baratheon—who held sway over and age of enforced peace are dead...victims of royal treachery. Now, from the ancient citadel of Dragonstone to the forbidding shores of Winterfell, chaos reigns, as pretenders to the Iron Throne of the Seven Kingdoms prepare to stake their claims through tempest, turmoil, and war.(more)

My Review: 3 out of 5 stars

I tuned in all the way to the audiobook read by Roy Dotrice it was a bit weird & I still got confused with his voice the way he delivered his lines since I got used to GOT read by Roy Avers but it was ok and tolerable.

There's lots of planning,death,backstabbing,blackmagic,tricks,bits of action here & there.Darkness & well I didn't expect Freedom but it was really nice also the great escape was a great treat.

I'm so proud of myself *pats back* I never thought I could get into this book/series and a lot characters POVs. I'm completely at awe due to a lot of additional and awesome appearances of other characters in the story they definitely add a lot of flavor,characteristic,resistance and more epic details. Some of my favorite new characters in this book The Reed siblings they're so nice & embraced their God given gift & talent WOW!

and oh Renly I knew it! Rainbow knights eh? ;) I just hope he stick to the rule in ascension.

The Hound surprised me :O

So proud of the Stark house.STAY STRONG!

New Characters I love to hate Melisandre I don't know whether she's up to good or bad or completely manipulative.I just hope Stanis stands up for himself.

About the HBO TV SERIES, well there's quite a lot of variation in season 2 & 3 mix in this but it's all good although I thought that season 3 will be about book 5 but it's still early for that.I'm looking forward to all of these things.

His honour weighs him down at court where a true man does what he will, not what he must … and a dead enemy is a thing of beauty.The old gods have no power in the south, Stark’s family is split and there is treachery at court.(more)

My Review: 4.5 out of 5 stars

It took me awhile to finish this..I dropped and picked it up multiple times for there are some things that just bore me and can't visualize at times.I watched the HBO tv series that's now been going for their 3rd season which is fantastic!hooray! this truly helped me a lot they're quite faithful to the book. That's why I decided to listen to this again to clear my confusion.At first like I said I found it boring but then as I tune in for more ,listened to it patiently whenever I got freetime or if I'd like to go handsfree from reading (multi tasking) I appreciated the very essence of audiobook read by Roy Avers it was really nice...I like his voice.

I found myself rooting for some characters like Arya,Jon,Daenerys & Tyrion.This is also the first time the word Bastard enlightened me in a whole new different level (well I never thought of it that way but when I thought about it some more I guess Mr. Martin was right afterall haha I'll never think of that word the same way ever again!)

My favorite character by far is Arya I like her a lot I definitely saw some of myself in her growing up.The gender bender aspect caught me by surprise..sad & nice at the same time.My least favorite is Sansa typical princess and love blind to Joffrey I don't think it's even love in the first place since they're so young perhaps a puppy love ( or like a wolf to a lion love haha)she's nice & courteous though I sense there's something brewing inside of her like the Lannisters.I despise Joffrey the first time I encountered his character he's such a spoiled brat rotten to the core!.Cersei,is also one of the characters I love to hate with a passion and don't let me start about little finger ugh such guy.

The dire wolves OMG! I love them so so much.Very Adorable & fearsome!

The house banners & sayings/quote/oath some are creatively made that sometimes completely sum up or at least you'll get the idea how the rest of the houses are.

I never thought and I feared for Eddard's life also for his beloved family they're so nice.I understand why he has done it although I prefer otherwise & as the story progress it shocked me for such revelations,lies & deceit.OMG! The Game of thrones is definitely the perfect title for this book.

Connection

We haven't talked for ages
although we're both a phone call or message away
one day for sure we'll manage to catch up

Let's try to sync our schedule perhaps?
have coffee,eat out,laugh,chat til dawn
like the good old days

Reminiscing,
playing video games,
and music is what we do best.
just to name a few loads of things we both like and love.

It's always a pleasure to see you
Whenever chance we got
At least we're not at all completely blank
not an inch bit  of awkward but more of childish and foolish mayhaps
