Harry Potter and The Cursed Child #8

When I first heard that J.K Rowling is releasing a new harry potter book, I went crazy. But I was also scared that the story would be repetitive and Voldemort would live again in some miracle and then the whole story would be ruined. But I was wrong. It wasn’t repetitive, nor annoying (‘Cause it’s a play not a novel) IT WAS BRILLIANT.REALLY. Although it kinda reminded me of the series back to the future. (you’ll know why when you read it)

I really loved how the characters developed as they grew up and how Albus was different than his father and his sibilings. It was the good kind of difference. Cause you don’t always need to be the same as others to stand out and shine.

This book felt amazing and nostalgic. It’s just exciting to find out more of this magical world. Highly recommended  :)

The Fault In Our Stars

“The fault in our stars” tells the story of 2 young people with cancer who found love and passion during painful circumstances. This book transmits a great message to it readers, moreover it gives hope for cancer patients to find strength and encouragement and keep fighting even in the hardest times. Hazel and Augustus proved that it is possible to love with such a disease, and live between severe cancer treatments because even the smallest things in life can make you feel alive.

The story is extraordinary and unique, it is easy to read and well written. John Green never failed to amaze me with his books and way of writing actually (except for looking for Alaska haha) , I became obsessed with this story even before watching the movie and I NEVER CRIED THIS MUCH ON A BOOK I guess you will understand if you had already watched/read it.

 Highly recommended for everyone and I hope you find it as good as I did because I rate it 9 out of 10!

Me before you

Me before you

“Lou Clark knows lots of things. She knows how many footsteps there are between the bus stop and home. She knows she likes working in The Buttered Bun tea shop and she knows she might not love her boyfriend Patrick.

What Lou doesn’t know is she’s about to lose her job or that knowing what’s coming is what keeps her sane.

Will Traynor knows his motorcycle accident took away his desire to live. He knows everything feels very small and rather joyless now and he knows exactly how he’s going to put a stop to that.

What Will doesn’t know is that Lou is about to burst into his world in a riot of colour. And neither of them knows they’re going to change the other for all time.”

Me before you is one of the best books I’ve ever read. It didn’t only satisfy my inner bookworm but my personality too. It showed me that there’s always a bright side in a person, for instance; Lou didn’t give up on Will, no matter how many times he let her down or even pushed her away, she fought hard to see the good in him and yes, she made him a better person.

It also taught me to be fearless, bold and brave , to live life to the fullest and do the things we’re afraid of the most.

“You only get one life. It’s actually your duty to live it as fully as possible”

The ending was the worst part of the book, it was selfish and extremely shallow, however every page before that was really inspirational and astonishing. Jojo Moyes did a really good job with the development of the characters. But the change of the narratives every few chapter was really confusing. Overall it was a really good read, I couldn't keep my eyes off it!!!

Highly recommended, 9/10. 

The Martian

A treat for science-fiction lovers.

The Martian tells the story of a botanist and a mechanical engineer: Mark Watney , who was left behind in Mars due to a vicious sandstorm during his attempt to leave the planet with his crew-mates on a mission.  Mark survives the injuries and continues to find new ways to and communicate with earth, long enough for NASA to rescue him

Personally, I found the book utterly fascinating and gripping although it was  packed with huge amount of redundant scientific facts. The characters were really shallow and boring however, the protagonist: Mark Watney was a really funny and an amazing character throughout the book.  Especially when it came to his phenomenal way of fighting for survival.

Highly recommended for people blessed with a scientific mind.

Rate: 7 out of 10

Harry Potter

 First 5 books

The series starts with an infant called Harry Potter who was left orphaned due to the attack of a sinister villain called Voldemort. (Most wizards and witches prefer to call him “You-know-who”)  Mysteriously, harry potter had survived the attack left with only a scar and Voldemort, his power apparently broken in his attempt to kill him.  However, the headmaster of Hogwarts decided to take Harry out from the spotlight and keep him safe with the Dursleys whom are Harry’s only known living relatives left. Harry had to endure the hatred and the constant humiliation from the Dursleys, until a half giant called Hagrid appeared in their house and told harry that he’s a wizard and he had to attend to Hogwarts Witchcraft and Wizardry. And from this point forward...the story begins facing many exciting experiences with lifelong friends Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger.

The series was magically written by the pen of J.K Rowling . The characters were well developed and the plot was clever and eminently gripping. Moreover, it can be easily read by native English speakers. Contrarily, novice English speakers may experience difficulties with some words. The twists in this series amazed me unlike any other book. I really loved it that it got to the point where I couldn’t put it down for anything even while eating, studying or when I’m about to sleep.

Highly Highly HIGHLY recommended!!! If you haven’t watched it yet I prefer you read the series before watching it. Rate 10 out of 10
