The Light Meets the Dark

Hello

Hi people! I decided I better post something on my blog already. :D So I figured I would give you a little update on life over here!! :)

First of all I got a skateboard!!! It is really cool! I have been practicing a bit on it and have made a little progress. Cool graphics, agreed?

I am reading The Haunted Mesa by Louis L'Amour. It is going pretty slow and I haven't even read it in a while. *shrugs* I guess I need a change of scenery, so I might start reading something else. Lately I have not watched any new movies. I have just watched a few Dragons Race to the Edge episodes, and some other "already been watched" movies. :D We have been working on cleaning and fixing houses, so I earned some money. Yay for me! :D I am seriously playing Hill Climb on my friends phone while I write this post. Sorry......That was a very distracted thought. Anyways.............I really just ran out of things to say. Time for some inspiration. *starts playing Hill Climb* I just made wacky cake with fudge frosting (if you don't know what that is a feel sorry for you) I'm not really a big fan of baking, but around here no one bakes so if I want dessert I have to make it myself. But don't get me wrong, my moms and amazing baker she just doesn't bake very much. Speaking of.......*runs off to get some cake* Yummm!! Distracted again. Hmmmnmmm.........What else has been going on......I drew some new pictures for The Ilyon fan art contest. In fact I will (eventually) be putting some of my drawing on my blog, so stay tuned for that. I added a few new books to my bookshelf....Well tons of new books. My shelf is now completely full. Yep lots of books. I don't want to list all of them so I'll just list a few of the best ones.
Dare and Deliver by Tricia Mingerink. The Homlanders series by Andrew Klavan. I got the rest of The Binding of the Blades series by L.B. Graham. (I did a bookshelf tour on my blog a while back) Halfblood by Jaye L. Knight. I got like over 20 Louis L'Amour. Defier and Sparrow by Mandy Fender. And lots and lots more. I should do another bookshelf tour in pictures, because I also got rid of a lot of books. I will be doing a book haul in pictures pretty soon and posting some stuff on my arts and projects so stay tuned for that. :)

Review for Deliver

Like......WOW!!! This book. Is. AMAZING!!!!!! It was so awesome to get back into the world of Acktar, and read about all my favorite characters again. Leith, and Renna, and MARTYN!!!! He is like, super awesome! :D OK, Martyn is now one my favorite character ever. Anyways enough about how much I loved this book. Here's a little about the book. The war in Acktar is over, for some it is a time to restart, for others they are lost. Martyn only knew life as a blade, and is struggling with guilt. Leith spent most of his life as a blade, and doesn't know what to do with his life. Others are struggling with fear and anger. How will the new Acktar fare? The only way to fond out is to read this super amazing book! :D There is nothing I did not like about this book. It's just full of adventure and action. Martyns AWESOME!!! :D I know I already said that. I am really sad that the series is ended. :( But it had a good satisfying ending. :) I would recommend it to ages 13-14-up. THIS BOOK IS AMAZING!!!!!! EVERYONE SHOULD READ IT. YOU ARE MISSING OUT IF YOU DON'T. BE SURE TO START WITH THE FIRST BOOK, IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY READ THEM. NOW GO READ!!!!!

Deliver

Here I am again to tell you more about the recently released book, Deliver, book four in The Blades of Acktar series by Tricia Mingerink!

About the book

Can something broken ever heal?

Martyn is broken. After torturing his best friend, he doesn’t belong anywhere in Acktar. No matter how far he runs, he can’t lose his guilt.

Leith is broken. While healing from the torture he received at Nalgar Castle, he struggles to find his new role. But can a Blade ever outrun his past?

The country is broken. Bitterness divides town against town, neighbor against neighbor. What will it take to deliver Acktar from itself?

They face their hardest battle yet. Peace.
