5 tips on How To Start Reading More for the New Years

Hello Beautiful People,

I have heard many people saying that they want to start reading more and at starters, they do, but that only lasted a few weeks. Some would say they "weren't born to read" while some would say that they simply have no time. But what I think is that you don't find the time to read, you simply make the time to read. Reading can be fun and enjoyable, trust me on this one.

Here are some tips to get started on reading for the new years.

1 . Don't be ashamed.

Sometimes, people don't intend to read because it's not "cool" You know whats not cool? Not been able to experience the world and the magic books brings. Its like taking you to a whole new world , escaping the reality.

John Green said, "Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself.” 

2. Get a library card

Once you are committed to go to a public library, borrow one or two books.  I find that when you borrow a book, you are more likely to read it then when you buy them. This is because library has due dates for you to return the books you borrowed. Thus this makes you set a goal or a deadline. You will have to train yourself to read the book before the deadline while buying them you won't feel the need to do pretty much anything at all.

3. Join a book clubs

Book clubs usually helps you with understanding the story more in general. So when you join and participate in one, you are most likely to read the book before hand so you don't feel lost or left out.. If you don't know where to find a book club, check the local library, there will be book clubs and book evens where readers gather together to share their thoughts.

4. Find your interest

You cant be reading a book you have totally no interest in. It's like reading History textbook. Unless you like it then read it otherwise, don't waste your time. I find that when I am interested in one specific type of book, I could inhale it in one sitting. But if the book isn't my type of genre then you will find the book lying round my room for a week ! Thus, discover and explore different variety of genre, then decide what you like best and which you are most interested in.

5. Sign up for Audio Book !

Audio Book is basically a book but instead of reading it to yourself, someone else it reading it to you and the best part is, you only have to listen. I find it helpful to have audio book when your have a busy schedule. You could listen to the book while you get ready for work in the morning, you could listen to the book while you make dinner for your family, and you could even listen to it through your phone when you are driving and stuck in horrifying traffic. Its a good and easy way to get a head start in dipping yourself into the world of books. I will link the audio book website at the side bars so feel free to check that out !


These are my 5 tips on How To Start Reading More for the New Years ! I hope you enjoy and find this a little helpful. If you have more tips and tricks, comment below or send me a Tweet !

Never Fade || Book Review

Never Fade Book Review

Ruby was working with the devil the last time we saw her. She erased Liam's memories of her in order to keep him safe. She killed and destroy for the devil to seek freedom but was freedom worth the risk?

Ruby was a leader of a small ground of 4. There's Visa, Jude and Nico. Visa was a Blue. Jude was Yellow and Nico was a green that as a pretty darn amzing skill in computer. On one mission, her mentor asked her to save Prisoner 27. They were trained not to ask question and just do as they say. Learning that the prison was about to blow up, Ruby didn't follow the order to stay in the prison. She got out and when she was free, she saw him, Prisoner 27, Liam's brother, Cole.

She couldn't believe her eyes, someone such like Liam but so much different as well. She saved him and brought him in. After the explosion was over, Cole secretly asked Ruby for help. The devil of the system was trying to find a intel drive that Cole stole from the laburatory. He claims that it contains knowledge of the cure. A cure to their difference, a cure to make all the greens, blues, yellows, oranges, and reds equal. Despite the good news, the intel drive wasn't with Cole, when the police came for him, he left it in his jacket and the worst part was, Liam has the jacket. Ruby's brain screamed at her and her heart yelled back. She didn't want to face him but she has to save him. She agreed to help Cole, only if he agreed that Liam would be left untouched.

Ruby escaped the system to finished what Cole started. However, she wasn't alone in this mission. Jude and Visa came along. No matter how much she didn't want them too, she knew they were better with her outside the system then to be inside. Her first guess on where Liam would be was his parent's house. She knocked on the door and a familiar face came by, Chubs. He was shot, bleed and dead but now he was standing in front of her, well and fit. She told Chubs about the intel drive and they went to find Liam together, knowing that it wasn't safe anymore to stay in the house. 

Things got worst on the road, they got captured by a group of Blues. The leader, Knox, tortured the kids he capture. If they are useful, they are allow to hunt and get rewarded but if they are too weak and too powerless, they starve and die in disease. When Ruby and the other got caught, they would not help Knox so he sent to a room filled with trapped kids. In the room, kids were skinny, weak, sick and dying. In the center of the room, lies a man, just about Ruby's age, lying on the floor, sick, his face was familiar, when he turned, Ruby held her breath. Liam.

Liam was sick and got caught for a week or two. Ruby was furious and went to destroy Knox. Knox knew Ruby was coming so he declare a challenge for Ruby and Visa. They were going to fight, not against each other but against someone, something, a Red. The Red, was big in size and had yellow teeth, chained up like an animal. Whenever they tried to hurt him, he burn them. Ruby knew there wasn't a way to win this by force, so she reach into his mind. She saw the Red's pass, Masson, was his name, she saw what a normal life he had before this and she saw what horrible things they had done to him, treating him as an animal. Using Ruby's powers, she talked to the Red with her mind and Masson turned against Knox, killing him in the process. 

When Liam got better, he remembered, he remember Ruby and the love he had for her. No power is greater then true love. Ruby now had the intel drive and was debating on weather to go back to the system and give it to Cole, or disappear with Liam. She knew her duties and she knew she would never forgive herself knowing that there was a cure but too selfish to share. When she was going back to the system, she fell into Clancy's maze. He wanted the intel drive he wanted to cure. But not to use it , to destroy it. It was an insult to him that they were finding the cure to take away their ability, they powers, and there identities. The leader of the cure investigation, was a Professor and she was Clancy's mother.  

The cure was destroyed and the system collapsed, exploded from a boom. Number of kids were trap in it, including 15 year old Jude. Ruby's heart shatter into pieces for he was like her little brother. When they think things could finally end, it got worst. Now, they have to start over again but Cole as leader. Now, they won't hide underground but go up front to destroy the government. Now they won't hold back their powers.

Bitterblue || Book Review

Bitterblue Book Review 

This book is about Bitterblue becoming a queen she never wants to be. She was blinded by her nobles and her advisers that her kingdom was safe and had moved on from the pass. But little did she know. One day she sneak out and found a group a nice people. She create a new identity and tried to help them with their problems. Those people, Teddy and Saf, were trying to save the kingdom, repair what Leck had done and recover what was destroyed. But something was always chasing after them. Someone was always hunting them down, burning their houses and destroying the ones who seek the truth.

Bitterblue, Po, and Katsa search deep into the mystery and found nothing. Each turn was a dead end. Bitterblue learnt not to trust anyone because the closer she gets to someone the higher risk she face. Saf and Bitterblue got closer together and Bitterblue was deciding to tell Saf her true identity, his queen. But she suffer from dilemma. Once Saf knew, they had a large argument which sentence Saf to death. Luckily Saf could hide and had Bitterblue covering for him. Together, Po Katsa and some of Bitterblue most trusted friends help her relive the truth of what her father, Leck had done to the kingdom. Leck's death doesn't not break the compulsion but ignite it. In the end, Bitterblue found out that it was her noblest, her advisers and even her most trusted friend, Tield that had been responsible for all the murder, burning houses and kidnaps. Bitterblue learnt that it wasn't entirely their fault, it was a way for them to forget and heal from the pass and when someone tried to bring it back to live, they got triggered. They kill people who tried to learn the truth of the cruel past. The truth about them. Leck did not cut all the animals and the little girls. Leck watches as he forces his advisers, his nobles to do the dirty work themselves. The advisers and nobles were compelled and forced to cut, to rape, to torture the weak.

Bitterblue wanted to start her kingdom fresh by not covering up the pass but learn from it and heal every edge of the kingdom that Leck had destroy. Bitterblue character had definitely grown and became stronger through the whole series. This book is easy to read, and very exciting as well. What I love most is that it has a lot of mysteries and trilled that really draws you in to the book and makes you wanting more.

Top 5 Myth from Childhood

Hello Beautiful People!

Do you remember some of the things we 90s kids do as a believe? Here are some top 5 myth that we thought were or still is true.

1. Counting 1 to 100 when we can't fall asleep.

I remember when I just could not go to bed, my dad would ask me to count 1-100. But guys, the thing is, it doesn't work this way. Sleeping was meant for our brains to rest and shut down from thinking after the whole day of work. Yes I know there is REMS and Dream modes but those come naturally, when you count 1 to 100, then you are basically forcing your brain to think and come up with the next number. The reason why we do fall asleep after counting is because you give up and just decide to shut your eyes and go to bed. End of story.

2. You use your whole brain 

I have read that if you are right handed, you use your left brain, and if you're left handed you use your right brain. Its not true! Every part of your brain works.Its just that when doing different activities, different parts of your brain get trigger to function. Say if you are walking, the center of your brain functions. When you are seeing things, the front part of your brain awakes. When you are memorizing stuff, your right side of the brain moves it's gear. So we do use all of our brains, congratulation !

3. Counting till ten will calm you down when you are angry at someone.

When you are angry, just be angry, counting till ten just make you feel annoyed and eventually over power the anger emotions. But psychologically, it doesn't work. We human are meant to feel things. Let say you are happy, you don't count to ten to stop being happen so why do you want ti count to ten when angry? Be angry and be what your mind whats to feel. The more you go against it the more you will think about it and the more you over think it. So stop counting to 10, you will just annoy your brain.

4. Dropping a penny from a tall building will kill someone.

If you were to head to the top of the Empire State Building and fling a penny down to the sidewalk below, it won’t kill anyone. Pennies are fairly lightweight at around one gram and being a flat circle doesn't bode well in terms of aerodynamics.

5. It takes seven years to digest swallowed chewing gum.

Chewing gum does not take seven years to digest. In fact, you don’t even digest it at all. Aside from a small amount of sweeteners and flavorings, there’s really not a lot inside the gum that the human body can actually break down and use. The bulk of gum is made out of rubbery polymers known as elastomers along with glycerin and vegetable oil-based ingredients to keep the gum soft and moist. Once the body has extracted what little it can from the gum, the rest is passed along as waste, just like anything else. However, that doesn't mean swallowing gum is a great idea. Swallowing large amounts of gum can cause constipation and gastrointestinal blockage that needs to be removed by a physician.


I hope you find this interesting and fun because it was sure to know the sad truth that we have had been believing. Hope you enjoy and thanks for reading !

Hugs and kisses.

We Were Liars || Book Review

We Were Liars Book Review 

We are liars. Gat, Johnny, Mirren and Cadence. they were liars. 

This story is based on Cadence point of view. Her family was the Sinclairs. There were rich, normal, perfect. They have mansions all around the world but what the Liars want most was their island. The island they play on for years since they were a kid. The island that brought them together. Mirren and Johnny were Cadence cousins and their moms were sisters. Gat was only a friend that had granted permission from their most wealthy grandpa to stay with them. Gat and Cadence then grew closer together, falling madly in love.

Suddenly, Cadence black out. She work up, feeling the burn, the pain and the missing memories. She didnt know what happened and didnt know why it happen. No one would explain, no one was there to help her remember, not even Gat. She knew she was sick, because she had to take medicine. She knew something happened because each time she looked at her mother, her aunts, there were a sign of lost hope and depression written on their face.What she dont know was why she couldnt remember and what had happen that night at the island.

Slowly, she decided that if no one would help her, she would have to help herself. She walkedpass her memories, trying to remember. Finally a glimps of hope light herspirit, she did remember.She remember fire, burning house, and the Liars planned it. She rushed to see Johnny and Mirren. They then told her the truth. During Summer, their grandpa decided to prepare his will. Each of their mother argued on how should get the most of the houses and wealth. Soon, the wealth torn the perfect family apart. The wealth burned the fuel in each of their hearts. The Liars were forced to separate and to them, as fifteen year old kids, it was the end of the world. They didn't want their moms to argue, they didnt want their grandpa to be adding oil to their burning hearts for wealth, they didn't want to leave the island. So they made a plan, a plan to destroy a house by burning it down and in hope that it will bring the family back together. For insanity could actually for once be sane. That was their thought. So one night before their flight, the visited the house on the island, they planned it all, each of them would burn of floor and gather outside. 

Cadence remembered, she remember that two naughty dogs were trapped inside, she remember calling Johnny, Mirren and her Gat. She remember the scream, the smoke, the empty pain of lost. She remembered it all. The fire did brought the family together but it broke the Liars apart. She didn't know. She didn't know that she had single handed killed her precious Liars, the one she was willing to risk anything for to stay together. Now it's all gone. The memories all came back to her and the image of Johnny, Mirren and Gat slowly faded back into thin air. 

She was broken.

but she was a Sinclair

so she was perfect

she was endure

Wow, this book-. Have you ever had this one stubborn scar, that won't disappear? or this one image of something you saw earlier that just keeps popping into your head? or a song that was stuck in you head for as long as you can possibly think of? Well, after reading this book, it is utterly unforgettable. Its like the scar willing to be seen, the image willing to be remember and a song waiting to be sung.

City Of Heavenly Fire || Book Review

City of Heavenly Fire Book Review

I cannot believe I had not made a blog post of this book. Lets say, my whole fantasy world revolves around this story. Its so complete and a serious page turner. I remember siting on my bed and reading the first chapter, the next thing I know it was noon and I was almost finished with the book. It is such a beautiful and elegant story. Clare completes her whole series so well though of that it is mind blowing.

This book is about Clary and her friends fight the greatest evil they have ever faced: Clary's own brother. Sebastian Morgenstern is on the move, systematically turning Shadowhunter against Shadowhunter. Bearing the Infernal Cup (an holly angel object), he transforms Shadowhunters into creatures out of nightmare, tearing apart families and lovers as the ranks of his Endarkened army swell. Basically, he turns good shadowhunters emotionless, and cruel. They look and feel the same to their love ones but their heart is taken and ripen from them. Not only that, demons now walk free on land and the only ones  protecting the mortal, shadowhunters, are trapped in Iris. Clare has to kill her own brother to save the whole Shadowhunter world and to set things right.

I don't want to spoil a lot from this book and sure not going to tell you the ending because you truly have to read it and experience it in order to understand it. The bitterness of sacrifice, the ability to gain strength from people you love, the mysteries and hided secrets, the terror of losing what you believe in. Its definitely a must read. If you read this series and loving it, you would love The Internal Devices Series as well because in the end, the two series actually join together to form one. It is utterly breath taking. Hope you enjoy this and thanks for reading !

Graceling || Book Review

Graceling Book Review

Pause, let me tell you something, I got this book at 9 am today and finished it at 3 pm. I literally inhale the whole book in one sitting. It is that good. I had not read something this beautiful since I read The Darkest Mind. Its very really and the world the author created is very complete. 

This book is about a girl named Katsa who is a Grace. A Grace is basically someone who is born with abilities and powers. They eyes are also different color from one another so it was easy to tell who was a Grace. Katsa's grace was the ability to kill. She wasn't locked up or killed simple because her uncle was the king and he intend to use her for his wars and torturing anyone who displeased him. Katsa however was apart of this Council who helps people in need. She then met Prince Po. Everything changed. Po was from another kingdom and he was graced too. He was able to read mind and sense when someone was near him. Katsa saved Po's grandfather (who was an old royal king) that was kidnapped. Katsa went against her uncle and ran away with prince Po. Now, Po and Katsa has to find the kidnapper to know the reason of the kidnapping and in order for his grandfather to be safe again. 

They travel to another kingdom and found out there was something wrong with their recent new king, Leck. Rumors tells that animals and young girls were scared and hurt without any reason. Soon the animals and the young girls would die with no explanations Po and Katsa then discovered that Leck was Graced too. He has the grace of fooling people, leading them to believe what he wants them to. Po and Katsa then had to save, Bitterblue, Leck's daughter, from her own cruel father that was hunting her to play his tricks with. In the end, Katsa was able to safe Princess Bitterblue but something happened to Po. Katsa had to leave Po behind and take Bitterblue to safe grounds. 

Tho, safe grounds weren't safe. When they got to Po's castle, expecting a shelter and some protection, Leck got there first. Leck compelled  the whole castle that he was the new king. Things weren't going as planned. Katsa tried her best not to be in Leck Grace's maze. When Leck mentioned Po, she snapped, she pulled out her blade and threw it straight and strong at Leck. Leck died and the compulsion broke off. When Katsa went to find Po again, something was off. Po was blind. But thankfully for his Grace, he need not have to see, he has his grace to sense.

World After || Book Review

World After Book Review

This is the second series of the Angelfall book and I have to say, I like the second one a little more. Its very well written and i felt that the characters grew to be more wise and mature. Another part of me was also missing Raffe and Panryn romance. This  book consist of adventures and action but still have a glitter of humor and love.

In this book, Panryn sister, Paige, turned into one of the Angel's creature where they are always hunger for human. Paige then ran away because she felt like she was a monster. Panryn think Paige was going to join the Angels but it turns out she was seeking for revenge. When the war between human and angels starts, Raffe appeared and took Panryn away from the war zone. There is a beautiful ending and I am really looking forward to a next book.

Vegan || Healthy Eats

Hello Beautiful People !

If you are know me, you know I love healthy eating and eating clean. So I had set a challenge for myself that I would start being vegan. Now hold on to your judgement about vegans not having enough protein and too many carbs. A person can be a non-vegan but still consuming too much carbohydrate and too less protein. So it's all about balancing. If you know me, I love fish and salmon and seafood and eggs so it is definitely hard to cut them all out but I am taking little steps at a time.

Here are some list of Vegan Verified foods:

Protein
Tofu
Beans
Seeds
Nuts
Lentils
Kale
Edamame

Calcium
Sunflower seeds
Sesame seeds
Soybean
Chickpeas
Tofu
Flaxseeds
Kale
Broccoli
Figs
Orange
Okra
Almonds

Iron
Kidney beans
Quinoa
Lentils
Pinto beans

And of course being vegan means unlimited about of vegetables and fruits !

What I recommend is if you still love meat and seafood then be a semi vegan. What is semi-vegan? It is being vegan most of the time but you still have exceptions and spaces to breathe. Lets say you are being vegan for breakfast and lunch but for dinner you are spending time with your family so make an exception to have some kind of non vegan food in small about. Or maybe you have been vegan for two to three days and then then you crave some omelette or salmon, I'll say, go a head.  Healthy eating is not a restriction and it definitely isn't a punishment so don't feel like you are lock up with this diet or this healthy eating lifestyle. Have fun, play around with variety of food during your healthy eating lifestyle but don't restrict yourself too much because being healthy is a journey not a destination.

hugs and kisses.
