What are blogs?

All right i will be the first to admit that i'm pretty to new to this whole blog thing, brand new actually. I accidently made this when i trued to sign up for my cousins website blog thing. I'm pretty sure most people come and post their whole life and what they ate and who they talked to, not that im hating... you know what never mind i'm hating. Maybe by writing this i'm proving myself to be just as shallow as they are but who cares. I mean i'm pretty sure i could live my life without knowing what someone ate for breakfast, but maybe thats just me. you know what now that i'm started let me just get all of this internet posting stuff off my chest. I hate that some people find it necessary to tell the world every little detail about them selves. I mean i honestly do'nt care at all if some one looked at her, or if he's sitting on a couch, or if she's buying a dress for prom. I mean people get over yourselves! And i hate that people are just constantly updating their status, in a relationship, just broke up, single. I mean dude if your that concerned about who your dating then you have some serious issues you need to work out. Anyways i went completely off topic. I just wanted to put it out there that i have no idea what im doing so dont judge my sad little blog thing that no one will ever see.

The Hunger Games

Wow! This book did something to me, I'm not a sentimental person but this story is a part of me now. I read the book because i recognized the author and it was on a reading list. Once i picked it up it was almost physically painful to put it back down. The emotions created by the breathtaking words of Suzanne Collins were the result of her mastery and her truly magnificent voice. The main protagonist Katniss was truly a work of art and my absolute favorite character to date, she even beat out Snape ( Harry Potter).  Her anguish, and struggle between staying herself or letting the games alter her forever, and indecision between Peeta and Gale provided a suspense i almost couldnt handle. On that note i would like to bring in the topic of Gale and Peeta who in my opinion destroy Edward and Jacob (No offense intended). Gale is the stoic best friend who would understand her completely and fan the flames of her personality and ideas. Peeta is the paragon of everything she subconsciously desires to be and the balance to her passion and rage. I also think that Haymitch and Cinna are characters that deserve to be in some hall of fame. I love how Haymitch is the bad ass drunk mentor and Cinna is the quiet rebel who creates a legacy through clothes. Prim and Rue are also not to be forgotten, both girls bring the softness that's necessary to counter the hardness of the novel. Alright i'm going way out there now. Bottom Line if you have any taste left in you after reading twilight i recommend reading this book it opens up a whole new genre that beats the cliche love story that seems to be everywhere

Divergent

Divergent was one of the absolute best books about a dystopian society! I was in complete ecstasy the entire time I was reading it. The main protagonist Tris is one of the best book characters i've ever read about it (and i've read alot of books). The fact that she was just a normal girl made her more amazing in my opinion. She was tough, and stubborn, and vulnerable in an endearing sort of way. Her passion to remain strong and become a member of Dauntless was inspirational; and her cunning made her all the more bad a** I would have loved to receive more insight on her past and why being a part of Abnegation was so hard for her. The way she developed throughout the book supported the, shall we say flavor of the book. And don't even get me started on Four! He brought the mystery, sexiness, and inner turmoil that the book needed to  go a little deeper. I love how throughout the book he remained true to his own character and managed to help develop Tris' as well.This book definitely did not disappoint and i would recommend it to anyone who is sick of the vampire sucking romance's that seem to be taking over the book stores.
