**may contain potential spoilers** As some of you may remember, I had previously posted a review on Throne of Glass on the series as a whole even though I had one book left in the series to read. I have finally gotten around to reading Kingdom of Ash  and will be laying out my opinions on this book. In the grand finale of the Throne of Glass  series, Sarah J. Maas doesn't hesitate and throws out truckloads of drama and violence. With Aelin captured and locked away by the evil Queen of the Fae, Maeve, Aelin endures countless months of suffering alone and away from her friends. Aelin will not yield to Maeve knowing that her friends would die if she did but with every passing minute, Aelin feels herself breaking from the agony. As Aelin and her friends fight for their lives in different places, they each must find the ones they can trust and fight alongside each other to fight both Maeve and Erawen, the King of the Valg in order to protect their kingdom, Erilea. Personally, I wa

Easy A, rated PG-13, starring Emma Stone and directed by Will Gluck, follows Olive Penderghast, a 17 year old high school student as she narrates the account of her pretending to loose her virginity. The movie begins with Olive lying to her best friend Rhiannon to avoid going camping with her family. Her lies escalate to the point of her lying about loosing her virginity to a college student. While Olive says this, Marianne, a prissy baptist, overhears her and begins to spread nasty rumors about her. What follows are some wacky hi-jinks, skeptical accounts of prostitution, and a lot of 80s references. My opinion: It was pretty good. If you suffer from second-hand embarrassment don't watch this movie because my gosh are the parents in this movie cringy. From the father asking his own adopted child "so where are you from originally" and the mother, when her daughter confided in her the awful bullying she had been going through, proceeded to discuss how much she got aroun

by Aditi Adve Whiplash  is a story of passion. Of what happens when your passion takes over everything in your life: your relationships, your health, every thought you have and every action you take. It is a discussion of where the line should be between working hard to achieve your dreams and your own health, and whether their should be a line at all. It is powerful, gripping, and thought provoking (plus it has a great soundtrack). The movie Whiplash  was written and directed by Damien Chazelle and scored by Justin Hurwitz. The pair are best known for creating La La land  and First Man . Whiplash  was released in 2014 and won many accolades, including multiple Academy Award wins and nominations and a Grammy nomination for Best Score. I have only seen a few clips from the movie, but when I was reading the screenplay I could not put it down. Here's a summary... Andrew Neiman is a 19-year-old jazz drummer enrolled in the best music school in the country, the (fictional) Shaffer

** potential spoilers ahead** T he Lunar Chronicles, written by Marissa Meyer, is a series that I have been re-reading lately. Before the summary, there is some basic information that one has to know.  In this story, people are able to live on the moon and these people are called Lunars and they possess a special ability called glamour which allows them to alter the bio electricity of those around them to make them see something that is not actually there (similar to an illusion). However, some Lunars are born without this skill and are deemed as shells or useless. Shells are often sent away from their families to be killed or become slaves. There is also a deadly plague called letumosis that is known to only affect Earthans. It is later revealed that letumosis was created by the Lunars to weaken Earth so that the Lunars could take it over and that the cure for letumosis was in the blood of the shells.  The story follows a young girl called Cinder, a cyborg (half machine, ha
