Fellow bloggers,
Sorry i haven't blogged in a while, i haven't finished Torment yet and unfortunately i don't think it will be the next one i will review, it will more than likely be Kiss Me Deadly (a gift from my best friend) or Water for Elephants.
This is going to be a different kind of post, this is a sum up of 2010. Well personally its been the hardest year that i have lived through, with the cons outmatching the pros but i still grabbed life by the horns and lived in the moment, took life step by step if you get me.
Book wise, my favourite read of this year has to be Dark Visions, my review is here just below this. And my favourite new release had to be PC and Kirsten Cast's latest House of Night book Burned, what a beautiful read.
Movie wise, my favourite release of 2010 had to be Eclipse, me being a massive Twilighter :D. Seriously those of you who haven't seen it, should be shot. My least favourite movie of the year has to be Knight and Day, it just didn;t seem like it had that big of a point.
Music wise, 2010 was huge, with all the new artists coming out and old resurfacing. Now i will say in advance i am a Bieber hater, i bet there's a lot of 12-13year old girls shouting at their screens but girls, i dislike him with a passion. My favourite new artist this year has to be Ellie Goulding. What a beautiful voice. My favourite album has to be The Wanted, come on have ye heard it :O wow its brilliant. And for my song choice Ellie Goulding hits home again with her cover of Sir Elton John's Your Song, beautifully sung Ellie :).
Well bloggers that was my favourites and not so favourites of 2010. i hope ye're all going to ring in 2011. The things i'm looking forward to are
Books= PC and Kirsten Cast - Awakened.
Angie Sage - Darke
RJ Anderson - Arrow
Becca Fitzpatrick - Crescendo
Movies= Water for Elephants
Breaking dawn Part 1
Harry Potter part 2
So Happy New Year bloggers stay safe and dance the night away

Review: Dark Visions by L.J Smith
Blurb
Kaitlyn Fairchild has always felt like an outsider in her small hometown. Her haunting eyes and prophetic drawings have earned her a reputation as a witch. But Kait's not a witch: She's a psychic. Tired of being shunned, Kait accepts an invitation to attend the Zetes Institute, where she can have a fresh start and study with other psychic teens.
Learning to hone her abilities with four other gifted students, Kait discovers the intensity of her power -- and the joy of having true friends. But those friendships quickly become complicated when Kait finds herself torn between two irresistible guys. Rob is kind and athletic, and heals people with his good energy. Gabriel is aggressive and mysterious, a telepath concealing his true nature as a psychic vampire, feeding off of others' life energy. Together, Rob and Gabriel's opposing forces threaten the group's stability.
Then one of the experiments traps the five teens in a psychic link. A link that threatens their sanity and their lives. And Kaitlyn must decide whom to trust...and whom to love.
Hello readers :)
Well here is my second book review. **Warning** - There are spoilers* okay now that that's sorted out onto the actual review, As i said this review is Dark Visions by L.J. Smith. Dark Visions follows 5 physic gifted teens. Kaitlyn, Rob, Anna, Lewis and Gabriel. These five have been taken from all over America and put into an institution that will both help there academic and mainly physic abilities. But when the five are caught in a telepathic web, they're minds are linked and not one of them knows how to break it. But after some research they find a way, but soon wish they hadn't.
As their quest takes them to Canada and back with enemies on thier tails and an old race's tales to help them. The five are in life threatening danger. Will their quest come up fatal or will they find a way to break their web?
Well in my opinion this book is an outstanding read. Proper page turning and there is the scare element of this novel too. The start kind of drags on, but seriously, keep reading it takes a little while to get into it but it's WELL worth it. The centre in my opinion is the best, the group travels to Canada to find 'the people of the crystal,' which they think might help them. But when they reach the people of the crystal, Gabriel -the reason for the telepathic web- betrays the group and turns to the side of their enemies. Gabriel now wants to kill them. But when Kait returns to the institute undercover, a full on war breaks out.
Along the journey secrets are revealed on the little saying the front of the book comes into play, 'not all vampires need blood,'

Review : Hush Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick
Dear my beautiful readers,
I finally finished Hush Hush and my, oh my what a read. Readers I would highly recommend this to everyone who wants a read that you can't put down.
Now on to my review,
Hush Hush's general plot is that teenager Nora Grey was never looking for romance or love or even lust. But when a boy who has been in Biology with her all year has now been seated next to her. This has sparked up an attraction that was never meant to be.
After a string of near fatal incidents Nora is worried, shook up and down right confused. She no longer knows who she can trust. Scarily Patch is everywhere Nora is. She doesn't know whether to stay in Patch's life or to run away like the coward she thinks she is.
Nora seems to be stuck in a place that has both Immortals and those that have Fallen. When a decision erouses Nora must make a decision and the wrong one might just cost her her life.
~ ~ ~
As i said before my lovely detailed general analysis this is a beautiful read. In my opinion there were only tiny faults, faults that were confusing and down right pointless. But nevertheless the genius that is Becca Fitzpatrick gave us an inspiring and altogether a very wonderful book.
With each page i turned i found out another detail and by the end it all clicked, everything ! sure there were details that didn't make sense until the second and even third read, but i will tell you keep reading it, it is amazing!
So here's my rating;
4/5 :D
Oh this might be handy to know, it's very hard to get a full score from me ;)
