The Perks of Being a Wallflower REVIEW +

by Stephen Chbosky

Paperback, 213 pages

Published February 1st 1999 by MTV Books and Pocket Books

 Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor.

Let's begin with some thoughtful quotes.

“I think that if I ever have kids, and they are upset, I won't tell them that people are starving in China or anything like that because it wouldn't change the fact that they were upset. And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn't really change the fact that you have what you have.”

“I would die for you. But I won't live for you.”

“So, I guess we are who we are for alot of reasons. And maybe we'll never know most of them. But even if we don't have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them.”

Those are just some things that came up in the book that made me stop, put the book down and just reflect. Stephen has the most brilliant brain, he seems to hold the answer to all of lifes question, his characters are well thought, and nothing that happens in the book happens without a reason. every chapter makes you just crawl under the blankets.

Chbosky seems like a person that studies everything around him, he describes relationships and put things into words in such a beautiful way, 

Patrick to Charlie “He's a wallflower. You see things. You keep quiet about them. And you understand.” that is the way I would like to describe Stephen Chbosky.

You see, nothing really BAAAM happened in this book. Charlie was just living his life as well as he could. But he saw everything in a different way, and he was very honest in his letters, which made everything that happen't in the book quite interesting because Charlie was a real thinker. He got upset a lot, he cried, he loved, he was humble, and he put other people first. always first. 
We got to see the world from a thinkers eyes. 

but the best thing was that I truly felt like I was in Charlies head. Chbosky can do that to you, he knows the power words beholds.

The thing with Charlie is that you never know where he will end up.
He does and says the unexpected thing, but the more you think about the more logical his actions become. 
Charlie thinks so much that his own thughts kind of takes over him.
This could be really scary, Charlie would say things that would make you close to tears, and not just him, but all the other characters were just as beautifully written. Every character was so unique, I came to really like Patrick because of his mental power. He didn't take crap, but in the end we are all human and a human can only bear as much as a human can bear.

Ruby Red / RubinRöd REVIEW +

  B Wahlströms

I maj 1976 förändras Ruby Winters värld för alltid. Det är mörka tider i det vackra och segregerade Sydafrika. Snart ska de svarta i Soweto resa sig mot apartheidregimens styre och landet färgas rött av blod. 
Ruby går sitt sista år i skolan och känner sig allt mer utanför. På grund av föräldrarnas ständiga rädsla för att bli arresterade får hon inte ta med vänner hem, och hon har tidigt lärt sig att inte dela sina tankar och känslor med någon. Tills hon träffar Johann 
Han är afrikaans (Rubys familj är av engelsk börd), hans far tillhör den styrande eliten och Ruby märker snart att fördomar frodas även hos hennes föräldrar och deras vänner. 
Men hon kan inte motstå den första kärleken, som förutom pirrande lycka också för med sig misstänksamhet, hemligheter och fara. 
Samtidigt gömmer sig konstnären och ANC-medlemmen Julian hos familjen. Han målar det hårda livet i Soweto och starka känslor som hat och ilska, men också kärlek. Julian visar Ruby livets alla färger, men hans kritiska tavlor försätter honom i fara. Protesterna i Johannesburg skördar många offer och världen blir aldrig den samma. 

Helt ärligt trodde jag att jag höll i en barnbok när jag tog upp denna bok. glad framsida med fina färger och blommor, 200 sidor kort berättelse, hur hemsk kan den vara liksom?
Mycket visade det sig. Den kunde vara mycket hemsk.
Sydafrika under den här tiden var ingen lätt tid för svarta människor. Man jagades och dödades för sin hudfärg, man såg på svarta som man ser på en hund - någon som man lär upp att stå och sitta. Att föja order.

Julian. han har fått kämpa sedan han var liten, han har fått leva i skuggan av världens orättvisa, och han visade denna orättvisa för andra genom sin konst. Mot slutet såg man att ingenting kunde ändra på det han faktiskt stod för - rättvisa. han höll lika hårt om sina penslar som han höll om vapen när det behövdes. Han bidade sin tid, han visste när han skulle kämpa. Julian kämpade för rättvisa. Hur mycket berömmelse han än fick glömde han aldrig vart han kom ifrån.

De karaktärerna som berörde mig allra mest var utan tvekan Rubys föräldrar. Vilken kämparglöd de två hade! De var två vita människor, rika och väl uppsatta som kämpade för de svartas rättigheter. De har allt, stort hus, berömelse, en älskad dotter, pengar, kärlek, och de väljer att kasta bort allt av betydelse för att låta de svarta få sin rättivsa. De såg människorna för deras inre och inte deras yttre. Jag ser upp till dem. I en värld där du blir stämplad vid födseln som talar om vilka förmåner du kommer ha i livet på grund av din hudfärg kan det inte vara lätt att stå för sin åsikt. De inte bara stod för sin åsikt utan de AGERADE också. 

Den här boken speglade verkligheten för endast 30 år sedan. Den här bokens budskap var tydlig - det är inte hudfärgen som avgör vem du är som person, det är insidan. Vi fick lära känna en kille som var släkt med en nazist-kramare. gör detta honom till Hitler älskare? Vi fick lära känna en svart man som togs under en vits familjs vingar som gav honom ett liv i bekvämligheter. Gjorde detta att han glömde bort vart han kom ifrån? Nej. Vi fick lära känna en familj som kunde leva i lyx om de bara valde att blunda för de svartas verklghet. gjorde de det? - Nej.
5/5

Hardcover, 224 pages

Published by Penguin Books (first published 2007)

In Ruby Winters' world, colour opens some doors and slams others shut. Her opulent Johannesburg neighbourhood is a far cry from the streets of Soweto where anger and hatred simmer under the surface. Ruby can't resist the blue-eyed Afrikaans boy who brings her the exciting rush of first love, but whose presence brings hushed whispers and disapproving glances. She might not see race, colour or creed—but it seems everybody else does. This dazzling novel will entrance teenage and adult readers alike.

Quite honestly, I thought I was holding in a children's book when I picked up this book. happy face with beautiful colors and flowers, 200-page short story, how horrible can it be like?

Very it turned out. It could be very horrible.

South Africa during this time was not an easy time for black people. They were hunted and killed for their skin color, they saw the black people the way you see a dog - someone who can teach up to stand and sit. For following orders.

Julian. He has been fighting since he was little, he has been living in the shadow of the world's injustice, and he showed this injustice to others through their art. Towards the end you could see that nothing could change what he actually stood for - justice. He held a brush as he held on weapons when needed. He bided his time, he knew when he would fight. Julian fought for justice. How much fame he got, he never forgot where he came from.

The characters that touched me most was undoubtedly Ruby's parents. What a fighting spirit, the two had! They were two white people, rich and well established that fought for the rights of blacks. They have everything, great house, praise coming, a beloved daughter, money, love, and they choose to throw away everything of importance to let the blacks get their justice. They saw people for their internal and not their appearance. I look up to them. In a world where you get stamped at birth that tells what benefits you will have in life because of your skin color, it may not be easy to stand up for their opinion. They not only represented their opinion but they ACTED also.

This book reflected the reality of only 30 years ago. This book's message was clear - it is not skin color that determines who you are as a person, it's inside. We got to know a guy who was related to a Nazi-hugger. this makes him the Hitler lover? We got to know a black man who was in a white family's wings that gave him a life of comfort. Did this mean that he forgot where he came from? No. We got to know a family that could live in luxury if they just chose to ignore the blacks reality. did they do it? - No.

5/5

Clockwork Princess (The Infernal Devices #3)

By Cassandra Clare

Hardcover, 568 pages

Published March 19th 2013 by Margaret K. McElderry Books

click here to read a review of infernal devices #1

Danger and betrayal, secrets and enchantment in the breathtaking conclusion to the Infernal Devices trilogy. 

Tessa Gray should be happy - aren't all brides happy?
Yet as she prepares for her wedding, a net of shadows begins to tighten around the Shadowhunters of the London Institute.
A new demon appears, one linked by blood and secrecy to Mortmain, the man who plans to use his army of pitiless automatons, the Infernal Devices, to destroy the Shadowhunters. Mortmain needs only one last item to complete his plan. He needs Tessa. And Jem and Will, the boys who lay equal claim to Tessa's heart, will do anything to save her.

My facial muscles are sore after all crying, I’m not even sure I will be able to write a proper review. I have tried to write a review now 3 times but I just start crying every time.

I have begun this sentence to many times, and erased it just as many times. For once I am truly utterly, shockingly speechless. I don’t know what to write, because every English, Swedish, Spanish word I know will never be able to describe what I am thinking about this book, because this is a book that cannot be described, only felt.

I don’t know where I should begin, I am feeling so many emotions right now, I didn’t even know I could feel this many emotion’s all at once. I have never cried this hard during a book either, I cried myself to sleep yesterday. This book will dance on people’s emotions, know where to press.

This book, as you might know by now, takes place in the 1800, a time I’m pretty sure Cassandra Clare have never lived in, but yet somehow, against all odds she managed to describe it all so well. Every room, every character, every spoken word, every scenery was a masterpiece, Clare have this way of describing things that not many authors have, she uses the perfect words to describe things, no scene is the other alike, no room, no character is the other alike. Everything is special, everything is unique.

There is a love-triangle, Jem-Tessa-Will. I hate love triangles, but this was no ordinary love triangle, the love they felt for each-other were heartwarming, and yet so heart breaking. In every love triangle you ask yourself, who will she/he choose? But not in this one, because I loved each character equally much, they all deserved to be happy. I never questioned her ability to love to people at once, because I understand her. How can you not love someone who shows you such a great amount of love back?

I began to understand Will more and more, and in the end my heart was arching for him. No one thinks about it, but he has gone throe so much. A heart can only be broken so many times before it starts to build walls around itself.

It’s no secret that Jem is dying. And fast. I have loved Jem since day one, never have I “met” a kinder, loving, sweet person. He has every reason to hate life, and yet he does not. He endure it, he see the world for all the good things it has to offer him. Like Tessa.

Every character touched my heart, Tessa, Jem, Will, Sophie, Gideon, Bridget, Cicy, Gabriel, Magnus, Church, Henry, and lastly but not not least, Charlotte. Charlotte is probably a character I will look up to for a long long time. She lived in a difficult era where women didn’t have so much power. Men didn’t believe in women either. But she was so strong, she never bent down, she did what she always taught was right, she didn’t let some men hold her back. She had an admirably confidence that a lot of people lack and that is why I look up to her. Because no matter the odds she always fought back.

There wasn’t really a special part where I cried, I cried from the beginning to the end, because this book is packed with events, I’m not kidding when I say that Clare wrote a whole life story on 600 pages, and she didn’t forget a thing. It’s like I have lived a whole lifetime in 3 days. That’s the magical thing with books.

The epilogue was so incredible. I cried and laughed, and smiled, and OOOOOOOOOOH IT WAS JUST AMAZING OK!?!?!?!? It was perfect. Simply perfect.

This in no ordinary book, this is a book I will always remember, I will never forget Jem, Tessa or Will. ever.

One day I wish to find someone I would die for. Someone who will make me a better person, someone who will show me what life is about when I don’t see it myself. Someday I want to find that one person who will be more than a sibling to me; we will have a bond that is “greater than blood”. Like Jem and Will had. Someday I will find my parabatai.

-          “there is more to life than not dying”

-          “Life is a book and there are a thousand pages I have not yet read.” 

-          Endure what is unbearable, and you bear it. That is all.” 

-          “Men may be stronger, but it is women who endure.” 

-          “Do you even care where I’m going?” he said. “What if I were going to hell?”
“I’ve always wanted to see hell,” Cecily said. “Doesn’t everyone?

well deserved 5/5

Fire (Engelfors, #2)

By Mats Strandberg and Sara Bergmark Elfgren
publ: Hammer

The Chosen Ones are about to start their second year in senior high school. The whole summer break they have held their breaths waiting for the demons' next move. But the threat shows up from another direction, somewhere they could never have foreseen. It becomes more and more obvious that something is very, very wrong in Engelsfors. The past is woven together with the present. The living meet the dead. The Chosen Ones are tied even closer together and are once again reminded that magic cannot ease unhappy love or mend broken hearts...

I’m still trying to figure out how to speak properly. Or even how to think coherently would be a good start.  I have no Idea where to begin. Let’s begin from the beginning.

This is the second book in the Engelfors trilogy.

I never read books written by Swedish authors because I don’t like to read books that take place in towns I grew up in etc., but I had to make an exception when it came to this trilogy because never had a book gotten so much attention from everyone, young old, in this country.

And I was slapped in the face with a big “amazing book” hand.

The second book was no different. Only this time the hand was stronger that slapped me.

To say that this book was amazing wouldn’t do this book fair, because it was so much more than that. This book was mind-blowingly utterly perfect.

These teenagers are no special. They struggle with finding themselves, they struggle with real family issues a lot of people out there can relate to and they are all under the different facades they have put up insecure. They are lost in the long tunnel we call life, but at the same time they learn the importance in having close relationship with people they can trust.  

Minoo, Vanessa, Anna-Karin, Ida, and Linnea are all so different from each other, but they love each other no matter what.

They are ordinary teenagers with the world on their shoulders. Literally.

One of my favorite characters apart from the main characters has to be Viktor. I’m not going to tell exactly WHO he was, but I really understand him. I do.

To sum things up, I loved this book. It was phenomenal. Other witch book will have to make a run for their money because the Engelfors trilogy is here to stay.

Books vs Movies (okey, books will always win but we have to keep things feisty

and then we have the movies coming up next year like Vampire Academy (or blood sisters as they like to call it, and mockingjay (one of my fav books!), and DIVERGENT (im jumping up and down writing Divergent) and Delirium ( i haven't even read it yet but im super excited)

all this awesome books, I can't even begin with describing how awesome this movie year is gonna be, Im doing my best seperating the books from the movies so I don't get disappointed which is surprisingly easy since I don't quite even remember any details from the three most exciting movies coming up this year. All I remember is that I gave the book 5 stars and I don't give away 5 stars that easily. except for Catching Fire. I hated that book. but I think I will love the movie. 

I don't know what you guys are saving money for, but im saving up for cinema tickets.

REVIEW: The Future of Us

By Jay Asher and Carolyn Mackler

It's 1996, and Josh and Emma have been neighbors their whole lives. They've been best friends almost as long - at least, up until last November, when Josh did something that changed everything. Things have been weird between them ever since, but when Josh's family gets a free AOL CD in the mail, his mom makes him bring it over so that Emma can install it on her new computer. When they sign on, they're automatically logged onto their Facebook pages. But Facebook hasn't been invented yet. And they're looking at themselves fifteen years in the future.

By refreshing their pages, they learn that making different decisions now will affect the outcome of their lives later. And as they grapple with the ups and downs of what their futures hold, they're forced to confront what they're doing right - and wrong - in the present.

FACEBOOK THE YEAR I WAS BORN, OMG!

This was one of those books you didn't like, nor dislike, but you kept reading it because, why not? 

Emma annoyed the crap out of me more and more, she was so ignorant!

Josh was ok, I felt like I didn’t get to know him that much..

The story overall was good, it was interesting in a very weird way, it was quite different from other books, because of the whole Facebook aspect. I got to know how kids lived on “my year” it was exciting, because to be honest, It felt a bit like the 70’tis with all the walkman stuff, and the way the girls talked, like they were some underdogs who couldn’t even lift a milk pack, my god.

I do not think these authors should write anything together again. I haven’t read anything by Mackler yet, I will someday thou. I felt that Jay’s writing sparkle wasn’t in it; could it have been Mackler holding him back?

But to be honest, I don’t regret reading this book, it wasn’t a deep book, and it wasn’t supposed to be one either, I will take what I get, and what I got was good enough.

Free Four: Tobias Tells the Story (Divergent #1.1) REVIEW

#1 New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth retells a pivotal Divergent scene (chapter 13) from Tobias's point of view. This thirteen-page scene reveals unknown facts and fascinating details about Four's character, his past, his own initiation, and his thoughts about new Dauntless initiate Tris Prior.

a short scene from the book Divergent from Four's POV. 
I think this piece really tells you how Four felt before Tris knew it herself, and it showes that this wasn't some kind of a instalove. It showed that even Four had weak points, he didn't necessary show other people, and how that could make him so smart, yet so stupid when it came to making choices.

Percy Jackson 1 - 5 REVIEW

realized that i havn't written a review about the percy jackson series! so here it goes..

By: Rick Riordan

Percy Jackson is about to be kicked out of boarding school... again. And that's the least of his troubles. Lately, mythological monsters and the gods of Mount Olympus seem to be walking straight out of the pages of Percy's Greek mythology textbook and into his life. And worse, he's angered a few of them. Zeus' master lightning bolt has been stolen, and Percy is the prime suspect.

Now Percy and his friends have just ten days to find and return Zeus' stolen property and bring peace to a warring Mount Olympus. But to succeed on his quest, Percy will have to do more than catch the true thief: he must come to terms with the father who abandoned him; solve the riddle of the Oracle, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and unravel a treachery more powerful than the gods themselves.

Percy is a twelve year old boy, goes to school, have a few friends... just a normal lifestyle. until he met's Grover, the real Grover. Percy becomes older with every book, so you really get to see him grow and get older, very andenterous in itself
this book was as much of a fantasy book as a fact book, i learned so much about greek myth's i kiiiiiiind of got obsessed with it during that month (year, i still am, but that's a secret)



The heroic son of Poseidon makes an action-packed comeback in the second must-read installment of Rick Riordan's amazing young readers series. Starring Percy Jackson, a "half blood" whose mother is human and whose father is the God of the Sea, Riordan's series combines cliffhanger adventure and Greek mythology lessons that results in true page-turners that get better with each installment. In this episode, The Sea of Monsters, Percy sets out to retrieve the Golden Fleece before his summer camp is destroyed, surpassing the first book's drama and setting the stage for more thrills to come.










When the goddess Artemis goes missing, she is believed to have been kidnapped. And now it's up to Percy and his friends to find out what happened. Who is powerful enough to kidnap a goddess? They must find Artemis before the winter solstice, when her influence on the Olympian Council could swing an important vote on the war with the titans. Not only that, but first Percy will have to solve the mystery of a rare monster that Artemis was hunting when she disappeared—a monster rumored to be so powerful it could destroy Olympus forever.













When demonic cheerleaders invade his high school, Percy Jackson hurries to Camp Half Blood, from whence he and his demigod friends set out on a quest through the Labyrinth, while the war between the Olympians and the evil Titan lord Kronos draws near.














All year the half-bloods have been preparing for battle against the Titans, knowing the odds of a victory are grim. Kronos’s army is stronger than ever, and with every god and half-blood he recruits, the evil Titan’s power only grows.

While the Olympians struggle to contain the rampaging monster Typhon, Kronos begins his advance on New York City, where Mount Olympus stands virtually unguarded. Now it’s up to Percy Jackson and an army of young demigods to stop the Lord of Time.

In this momentous final book in the New York Times best-selling series, the long-awaited prophecy surrounding Percy’s sixteenth birthday unfolds. And as the battle for Western civilization rages on the streets of Manhattan, Percy faces a terrifying suspicion that he may be fighting against his own fate.







trust me, you will love the books!
