Non-list Issue

WHAT THE HECK!!!!! Dimitri is a Strigoi???? Are you freakin' kidding me???!!!! This is awful!!! I finally finished the book a few nights ago and I'm mad. I'm mad at EVERYTHING. So Rose and Dimitri have this amazing time when she goes all psycho. Whatever, that was like my favorite part. Then the Strigoi attack and again whatever. Christian is amazing in that by the way. I loved how he used his element. It was GREAT!! The next morning they attack them and that's when everything sucks. What the hell did Richelle Mead do that to Dimitri for??? HUH? Rose had everything worked out: graduate, become Lissa's guardian, live at the Royal Court, and get to see Dimitri all the time. What the hell. Then poor Dimitri gets carried away and now Rose is running away AGAIN. She's not graduating, she's not going to be a guardian. OH MY GOSH. THAT'S AWFUL!!! Now Lissa won't have a guardian like Rose and they probably won't let Rose become a guardian if/when she kills Dimitri. Oh my gosh and she has to kill him. That part freaked me out the most. Wow this book just made me absolutely emotional!!! UGH!! I hate it and love it at the same time!!! For those of you who don't read Vampire Academy, then you won't get this. I'm sorry for all the random thoughts and rants, but I mean SERIOUSLY. THIS IS AWFUL!!!!! NOO!!!!!

Today I decided to add Christian. It took me awhile to realize this, but I really do now. Just the way he is is admirable. He is very protective, and yet doesn't think he is worthy enough to be a boyfriend. All he wants to do is love this one girl enough and have her trust him with her whole heart. He doesn't realize it, but Lissa really does love him with everything she has. If you haven't yet figured it out, I'm talking about Christian from the Vampire Academy novels. It took me awhile to actually like him. He is a pretty big jerk to Rose, but in Shadow Kiss, he really shows his true colors. He actually is jealous of Rose, but honestly a good person. The only reason people don't like him that much is due to the fact that his parents were bad people. I don't think that's fair and neither does Lissa or Rose. He is also jealous of Adrian since he is a spirit user and so is Lissa, so they spend a lot of time together figuring out their power [if you don't know what I'm talking about, it's cuz you haven't read the book. also i don't really feel like explaining the whole entire power thing since it's complicated and the book would explain it much better]. I'm sorry I can't really eloborate more, but I'm at school, and I'm like really bored, so this was just a quick note entry to jot down. So remember this: Christian Ozera is DEFINATELY a good person. Don't judge him because of his parents and read Shadow Kiss since it is amazing, but also really sad =]

P.S.- To the real Christian~
I'm sorry if this one isn't all that great. It was just something quick to write down and I was given a whole class period to do nothing since tons of people are helping hand out Christmas trees. I also want to know if you thought at all that this entry was about you! =P
P.P.S.~ I LOVE DIMITRI!! Seriously, after reading this book, even though his fate is doomed, he is one of the best guys ever.

I just totally remembered something. How could I not have written about Ian from the Host? I'm a total Stephenie Meyer fan and I forgot him! What is wrong with me?? =]
Mmmmk well today, our little addition is Ian. Ian is someone who loves unconditionally. It all started with a spirit or soul named Wanderer. Wanderer's soul was put in a human girl's body. Soon, Wanderer found out that she could still hear Melanie, the girl who's body Wanderer inhabits, even though that part of her mind was supposed to be dead. So basically Melanie, the real owner of the body, was still present mentally and would yell at Wanderer and stuff because she took her body. Eventually, Wanderer begins to see how what the souls are doing is wrong (killing off humans and embeding a soul in them). She feels bad for Melanie and they start to cooperate with each other. Melanie then tells Wanderer about a secret cave that her uncle built in case something like this ever happened. She remembered the coded directions and led Wanderer there.
Wanderer is in a rude awakening when she is taken to the caves. When a soul is in a human body, the body's eyes have a silver ring around the pupil. That is how they can tell the difference of who is who. They sort of beat Wanderer up and take her down to the cave after they find her wandering in the desert. Before Wanderer even started this journey, Melanie showed her images from the past, which were of her younger brother, Jamie and her boyfriend, Jared. So when Wanderer saw Jared, her body yearned for him. It wasn't her fault. It was just the body's natural reaction. Jared then swears he hates her etc, but inside you know he's hurting, seeing the woman he loved's body inhabited by a soul.
Then there's Ian. Ian's older brother hates Wanderer, but Ian loves her. Ian doesn't love Melanie's body, but the soul living inside of it. He loves the creature that Wanderer is.
In the book, he states that he loves her, not the body she is in, but her for who she is. Now that is the beautiful thing about him. And when Wanderer has to be taken out, he gets to hold her and he even tells her that she's beautiful (if you haven't read the book, then you won't know what I'm talking about).
Here's a quote:
"She is. Melanie is a very pretty girl. Even beautiful. But pretty as she is, she's a stranger to me. She's not the one I care about." ~Ian O'Shea
So what team are you on? Team Howe (Jared)? or Team O'Shea (Ian)?
I'm team O'Shea and those of you who don't know how to answer, that's because you didn't read the book. You can't even say Team Howe since I didn't really post anything about him =P

Tobey is the next addition to this list. He is from When It Happens by Susane Colasanti. This book is seriously one of my favorites. It's hilarious since it's told from both a boy and a girl. Tobey is just amazing though. He is a totally sensitive guy and will only have one girl: Sara. So basically the story goes through how they first got to know each other and how much Tobey already liked her. It shows how devoted he is to her from an early stage because he refuses to move on from her. His friends tell him that he can have whomever he wants and he chose her of all the other girls. Right there is a quality most guys DON'T have. He wont settle for just anyone.
Anyways, the story goes on and all is good. It's totally funny reading Tobey's thoughts as well as knowing Sara's. He's constantly making little comments in his mind about things. Here's one of my favorite little remarks he makes:
pg.60
Tobey tripped up the stairs as he tried to catch up to Sara to talk to her.
Sarah bends down to help me up. "Are you okay?" she says.
I get up quickly like it's no big deal. "Yeah, I'm fine."
"Every time I see you, you're bumping you head!"
And every time I see you, I wish my headboard was bumping against the wall. With you in my bed.
Little things like this make me crack up.
Here's some evidence he's sensitive and really does want to have a REAL relationship with Sara.
pg.86
Tobey confronts Laila to ask if she will trade partners with him since Sara is her partner and he wants to get to know Sara more.
"Why should I help you?" she says.
I try to find the right words to make her see that this has to happen. "It would give us the chance to find out if this is what I think it is."
"And what's that?"
I take a deep breath. "Something real," I say.
Isn't he so awesome? haha yeah of course he is!!

Sorry I haven't been on in a LONG time... School has me tied up and then I was trying to finish Rumors as fast as I could. For those of you that have read it, I cried at the end and got really pissed off. How could that happen to you know who?? The only reason I started that series has abruptly been taken out. I nearly decided to add Henry to the list out of pure insanity, but thankfully the sanity returned and I have now decided that I have found someone else to fill his undeserved spot.
Since the Russian Revolution destroys her life, Anna, who is a countess, flees to England with a few members of her family. Since they are poor, Anna goes to the Westerholme family and becomes a maid. A few weeks into her service, she meets the owners' son, Rupert. Rupert is unfortunately engaged, but that doesn't stop him in taking notice of the beautiful, new maid. He ends up finding himself to be falling in love with her-just the lowly housemaid. Knowing that he can't marry her, Rupert tells Anna his feelings and decides it's just better to stick with his fiance, who he is only marrying since his family is suffering financial issues.
A sudden turn of events occurs for Anna and she is rich again. The family nurse, who was given the family jewels, finally found where the family was staying and bippity boppity boo, Anna's social status had now finally returned. She was once again a RICH countess. Rupert finds this out and is outraged that Anna didn't initially tell him who she was.
Rupert is then stuck with one problem: his nightmare of a fiance. The house servants all get together and devise a plan that will make the fiance not want to marry him anymore. Their witty plan worked and they persuaded Anna to go back to the mansion to finish up the amount of work she was contracted to. Anna only agreed to going because she thought Rupert would be in India.
When she goes to serve the food, she sees Rupert and before she can escape, his eye catches her and he goes off on her etc. Then he realizes how much he loves her and how much she loves him and well there you have it. Just another happy ending.
This book is called A Countess Below Stairs and I do recommend it, although it takes a while to get into the story and is sort of hard to read because it takes place back in the early 20th century.

I don't know how many of you have read the book the Luxe or if you've read the sequel, Rumors, but they are pretty overly dramatic books. The reason I'm even bothering to read the sequel is because once I pick up a book, I can't put it down. Same goes for a series. These books are definately not my favorite, but I somewhat enjoy reading them and this is where we get the next boy who made the list.
His name is William or Will Keller. He was the coach driver for the Holland family. Can you already see the romance in this? *rolls eyes* Some stories are just SO predictable. Anyways, the year is 1899, a time where young girls married mainly for money and very few of them got to marry the man they love. Elizabeth Holland was one of these girls. She was going to have to marry Henry Schoonmaker in order to take her once wealthy family out of debut. The downside to this? She was NOT in love with the much sought after Henry, but rather the lowly coach driver, Will Keller. Will then ran away to California to get rich and told Elizabeth to come after him. Elizabeth was then torn since she still had the issue of Henry. Her "best friend" helped her fake her death and she ran away to California to find him.
So the story goes on into a bunch of tradegies and whatnot. But the fact is, Will was one of the only reasons why I still sorta like reading the story. His and Elizabeth's romance is so scandalous.... especially when they are living in California and they tell everyone they are already married. =]

And now I'm scared to finish the book since every review I've read is telling me that the ending is sad and depressing... what am I going to do?? I don't need to be depressed right now!!!

Fictional Boyfriend #26

This post is going to be probably pretty short since this guy really doesn't turn into a sweetheart till the very end of the book. So basically, I'm just promoting the book today.
Today's book promotion =] is about Saving Juliet.
I really like this book, just like all the other books on my list. It's really unrealistic, but still fun to read since it has such a neat plot. Somehow Mimi and her costar Troy [they are both in Romeo and Juliet the play] get stuck in Romeo and Juliet and actually go back to the 1600s or whenever the story takes place. They are at first seperated and Mimi gets ushered to the Capulet house since she is still wearing her costume from the play [she went outside for a breath of fresh air during her break and Troy ended up following her- both got sent to Shakespeare's play] and Troy got sent to the Monague house since he was wearing his costume from the play. They finally find each other and go through a list of events that happen in the play. Mimi befriends Juliet and Romeo and helps get them together and it's really cool because at the end, they don't die. They actually run off together.
So back to Troy...
Troy is this big time heartthrob who was basically doing the threatre a favor by playing Romeo in the play. Naturally, he's a jerk/snob. Poor Mimi was helpless, like all other adoring fans, but didn't show that she liked him. Then this whole go-back-in-time-during-a-play thing happened and she realized that she couldn't hide her feelings and well Troy was crazy about her anyways so it's all good.
I totally recommed this book.

Fictional Boyfriend #25

Before I get to my list, I'd like to tell you a book I do NOT recommend under any circumstance. It was probably one of the WORST books I've ever read in my life and I greatly discourage any of you from wasting your time even looking at it. The book is called Bleed by Laurie Faria Stolarz. I picked up the book thinking it would be great since Laurie wrote it, but all I gained from that book was how disgusting an author can be. It was so full of disturbing things, I could barely finish it, which is saying a lot since once I begin a book, no matter how bad it is, I WILL finish it. Ugh, it was soooo bad!!!!
List time!!!
Today's addition is Stefan from The Vampire Diaries. As you may have already guessed, Stefan is a vampire who ends up falling in love with Elena, a human. These stories are actually really entertaining. The story is the coolest plot ever. It is totally bizzare and always has you guessing. I loved every part of it. The whole "bonding" thing was very interesting and just how two brothers could hate each other so much but then finally getting together to save the town from the superior power of evil. Gosh I hate Katherine [one of the characters in the story that you will find out is a total jerk and is awful and don't forget evil!]!! I was very upset with the way she acted in the 3rd installment. I was pretty happy when she died though... but then again, I didn't like that Elena died along with her.
The funny thing is, I was just rereading that part and almost started crying again! L.J. Smith just pours so much emotion into their relationship, so you are literally heartbroken when she dies. The ending is amazing though. I was crying out of sadness but soon turned that around and was crying because I was so happy! Amazing books! Lovely relationship...

Fictional Boyfriend #24

The boy who made the list today isn't really a boy and I don't really consider him a "boyfriend." He's more just listed here as an honorable mention so that society doesn't forget him. This boy's name is Jackson and he is a ghost, like many of my boys. He comes back and haunts his girlfriend, whom he loved unconditionally. Ava, his girlfriend, is totally distraught over his death [who wouldn't be?] and he ends up coming back for her. This makes it easier for her, but yet in the long run, it's bad since she can't offically get over him. He visits her in her dreams and always tells her he won't leave her, that he loves her, etc. She eventually realizes that she should probably let him go, and when she "discusses" this with Jackson, he flips out. After long persuasions, Ava convinces him to leave her and move on, and know that she will never forget him and all the rest of that sappy stuff.
The real reason why I adored I Heart You, You Haunt Me is because it is written as poetry. The whole book tells the story through poems. I love it!!

Fictional Boyfriend #23

Has anyone ever considered Voldemort to be a good boyfriend? I mean he does have a lot of power and whatnot... He was really cute until Harry distorted his face, so maybe he does belong here!! Without further ado, I will explain to you why Kieren made the list.
Kieren is a werewolf who is actually more of a shape-shifter since he can FINALLY control when he turns and when he doesn't. So we have our main character, Quincie, who is in love with our shape-shifting werewolf since middle school. He loves her too, but that one fateful day out on the train-tracks proved to pretty much destroy a romantic relationship. Kieren, then, couldn't control his outburst and accidently extended his claws and cut straight through her hand. Since then, he has always kept his distance for her. Then, a change of the story occurs and for some reason [just read it], Quincie is now a vampire. Instead of hating her, like legends always say, he gets to finally express that love for her since she is unbreakable =]. I really loved this book, at least for the most part. Oh yeah!! Hahaha the book is called Tantalize!
