Tome Topple

Update
Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson
Page:288
Chapter: 18

Thoughts:

  • The magic with the swallowing metals is really cool.  I like how were learning with Vin in the story.
  • I wonder if Mare really did betray Kelsier?  Maybe she was manipulated by the Lord Rule?
  • Vin's trust issues drive me crazy, but I get why she has them. She wants to trust people, but cannot thanks to her brother's "teachings".
  • I still predict that Lord Elend is going to be a love interest, but I also think Lestibournes likes Vin as well.
  • The father/daughter bond between Kelsier and Vin is one of my favorite tropes.

Daughter of the Forest by Juliet Marillier
Page: 270
Chapter: Eight

Thoughts:
  • I know the grudge between Sorcha's kingdom and the Britons has been going on for years, but its unfair that Sorcha is being judge by her family!  Guilty by association.  Red's mom doesn't even know her!  She just assumes!
  • I'm nervous that Sorcha won't get to her brothers on time.  I wonder if Sorcha's half brother will be a threat in Son of Shadows?
  • Is Simon dead?

Beginnings of Sarah J. Maas Collection

Here is my copy of the first two books in Throne of Glass; Throne of Glass and Crown of Midnight.  I hope to get the third one, Heir of Fire for Christmas.  I'm loving the series so far.  Team Chaol!!!  But I like Dorian too, just not as Celaena's lover, but her good friend. I got both of these from BooksaMillion. Add caption I got this one at Barnes & Noble, but I will wait to finish it before I buy or ask for Court of Mist and Fury.  I'm hoping by then it will be in paperback, which I prefer since I take books with me wherever I go.

Top 5 Wednesday: Freebie

Top 5 Characters I Want to be Best Friends I decided for my Freebie to choose from one of the topic suggestions.   I don’t know if any of these characters would want to be friends with me Lol, but I like them and would love to be friends with them. 1.     Sansa Stark from The Song of Ice and Fire series by George RR Martin.   I admit, at first, I didn’t like Sansa didn’t appreciate how she treated Arya, but as the story goes on I have come feel sorry for her and fall for her character.   She goes through so much hell and survives so much trauma, and she needs a friend she can trust.   She also needs a friend who genuinely wants to be that, a friend, and she’s a sweet person, despite her attitude in the beginning. 2.     I would just love to be part of this friend group: Cinder, Scarlet, Cress, and Winter from The Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer.   All these girls are really cool and would be fun to hang out with. 3.     Alice Cullen from Twilight by Stephanie Meyer.   She’s

Top 5 Polarizing Books

Twilight by Stephanie Meyer.  A lot of people in my generation can't stand this book, because they have realized how flawed this story is, and I get the dislike, I do.  As we get older we begin to see how bad a lot of YA like this can be, but I have a soft spot for this series.  This was the second series that I got into hardcore, the first series being Harry Potter, and I was one of those people who went through the vampire phase.  This was also the second series I got into that my mom liked too, and I am always trying to find ones that both me and my mom can enjoy. A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas.  I know a lot of people don't like this one, especially since the second one came out, and I have not read the second one so my opinion might change.  I loved the this book.  If it's a Beauty and the Beast retelling I'm going to be interested.  This retelling was done really well in my opinion.  I'll probably get mad at Tamlin like everybody else as a I r
