To Come in the Future

Hey everyone, I just went out and bought a ton of new books. This is just a quick update to let you know what to expect in the next couple weeks. So far I plan to: - Finish the last of the Kitty Hawk books I have on me - Read the life of Pi (yes, I got the book after seeing the movie) - Finish the Maze Runner Trilogy (I probably won't do the reviews on them since they are second and third books in a series) - Read another Amazon book that I got from an amazing author - Keep making fun videos to post on the blog Halloween is at the end of the week so not much reading will be done until that is over. But look forward (hopefully) to a video of me decorating my house for the season. That's all the update I have for you now. Have a great week and Happy Reading! - K

The Maze Runner by James Dashner

Hello everyone, I hope you are having a good day. This week I read the Maze Runner, a popular book that has been made into a movie. To be honest this book has been on my shelf for over a year now and I have just not been in the mood to read it. I finally decided in an act of desperation to read it. Now that I have read it I can say that I am happy that I did. I love post apocalypse books and I love it when they have a thriller/horror sense to them. This book had all of that put together. Let me tell you a bit about the book: Thomas wakes up in a strange machine knowing nothing else besides his name. When he comes out of the box he is in he is surrounded by a couple dozen other boys all around his age (which he isn't sure how old he is to begin with). The boys don't seem surprised to see him and they try to help him cope with where he is. Though they refuse to tell him where he is or how he got there he begins to discover things on his own. This is what he learns: 1. A...

Illegally Downloading Books

Good morning everyone! I hope you are all having a great day! In the last couple days I have gone to school and finished reading a few books. But just yesterday I finished a book and suddenly had a lot of time on my hand. I wanted to do some reading but I had no book on me and there was no where near me to get a book. That is when I started thinking. I have a copy of the Mazy Runner at home, which is the next book on my list. I would love to start reading it now but I can't. But I did buy the book. Would it really be so bad to download the book on my phone considering I had already made the purchase? In that case I could start reading it on my phone and then continue reading with the actual book once I got home. Being  a good person I decided not to download the book, but it did get me thinking. Say you purchase a book but are thinking the same thing I was. Is it really bad to download the book once you have purchased the actual book as a short substitute in the time it takes y...

The World Below by Mike Phillips

Hello everyone I hope you are having a great day. I'm sorry this is coming at you later in the day than usual but I only just finished reading the book a couple minutes ago. It has taken me a while to read the book as a lot of books have lately but it isn't because I didn't like the book it is just because I have been so busy with school. I am off next week so I am hoping to get a chance to catch up on some reading then. Also, I am sure some of you are noticing that I am reading books lately that aren't very well known books. As apposed to the teen books or popular books I used to do I have been doing other types of books. This is because I think it is great to look at other books that one doesn't always see and I am always looking to help out authors when they ask me to check out their book for them.  With that out of the way let me tell you a bit about the book: A man is called to the side of the Goblin King to be hired to retrieve a sword that was stollen ...
