The 5th Wave Review

Yet another late review, but I've been busy this week preparing for school since my vacations ends in four days. Come to think of it, my blogging is probably going to slow down a lot once school's started again. Just like last time, I will have a spoiler free part first and then go into detail in the second half. That's a spoiler warning for those of you who haven't read the 5th Wave yet and are still planning to.

Precious Stone Trilogy

This review is a bit late, but I had no computer while I was in Germany and had no private place to write a review for every single book. This overall series review is my solution. The first part will be spoilerless. The second will contain spoilers for Ruby Red, Sapphire Blue, and Emerald Green.

Insurgent movie review

I saw the Insurgent movie a couple of  weeks ago and I really enjoyed it. It's been on my to-blog list for way too long, but now, the time has come. So make yourself comfortable, because this is probably going to take a while.

General update

Since I've not posted anything for about two weeks, because I was in Germany with my family, I will tell you something about what I've done there and in the rest of my summer vacation. Sorry for my neglect - even though considering my page views, I'm practically talking to air.

When nerds go mainstream: a discussion

One Mind

I think books have many qualities that contribute to the entertainment they offer the reader. One of those things is their unpredictability. I want to discuss this part of writing here.

BEWARE: INDICATION OF SPOILERS OVER HERE. With that I mean things like: SPOILER and SPOILER died.

Movie Review Perfect Sisters

Movie: Perfect Sisters
Genres: Crime, Drama, Thriller
Director: Stanley M. Brooks
My Rating: Still not emotionally recovered

Around two days ago, I watched the movie 'Perfect Sisters' and loved it. So I thought I might as well review it for you.

The trailer says it's a horror movie. Not even close. As you know, genres are not my strongest point, but this is more of a drama than a horror movie. Yes, the drowning scene is a little disturbing, but it's not about that.

If you're interested in the real effect of alcoholism and abuse on children, you should definitely watch this movie. It's based on a true story and even though the camerawork isn't as smooth as in big Hollywood productions and sometimes the close-ups are a little weirdly timed, this is worth watching.

First Steps

Okay, I decided to start a blog and now it's finally happening. Only it's not as easy as I thought it would be. In this blog I want to freely talk about the things on my mind (which are mostly books).
Since I have no clue how you add some text to the 'about me' part, I will start with a small introduction:
