A Clash of Kings (A Song of Ice and Fire #2) by George R.R. Martin

(Click the link for more info.)

Review:
I love the character, Arya Stark; she is so feisty. I see that she have change a lot through her journey, from good to worse. No matter how much she really want to go home, she still keep surviving until she heard about Winterfell and her little brothers. She heard from the man who took over the castle saying that Winterfell was already token by the Greyjoy, but she doesn’t know about that and her little brothers is dead. She was lost for words, she just doesn’t know what to do, but the only thing she can do is keep on surviving.
            I don’t about this character, Sansa. On Book #1, all she cares about is Joffery and want to marry him and so on. But in this book, it is different, like you see another side of her. Sansa doesn’t want to marry Joffery for he is the king. He had tortured her and embarrasses her in front of all those people who had witnessed some of the action. I understand that Sansa would rather be at home in Winterfell then in King’s Landing. She has to do what she command and be the stupid girl to Joffery and his mother Cersei. She really wants to go home and be with her family in Winterfell so desperately, but it is hard for her to go through this and accept the hard path. Sansa really want Joffery dead, because what he has done to her.
            Tyrion is a smart Lannister. I like him better out of all the Lannister, because the other Lannister are for freaking awful and cold-hearted. He would do anything to protect Shae no matter what and also he know he is playing his sister, Cersei, game.
            I really adore Bran Stark, he is also my favorite character. I think is kind of cool that he is some kind of warg, if I spell that correctly. Him and his direwolf, Summer, are really connected.
            I love Jon Stark, he is one of my favorite character and love his direwolf as well. Jon are similar to Bran, because they both have dream along with their direwolf. Ghost is really something. I don’t mind having him as my pet.
            Catelyn is in a bad shape with her life. Her life is falling apart; all she ever wanted was her family back together in her arms. She really misses her late husband Ned Stark who was beheaded by King Joffery the asshole.
            I don’t know much about Davos, his character is kind of okay but when you read his point of view you will understand why he don’t like the Red Lady and why he sometime fear Stannis.
            I love Danys, she have change a lot and starting to become more as a woman for her people. She knows what she wants and doesn’t want. She doesn’t take anything for a fool. Her dragons will protect no matter what happen to her.

'Til We Meet Again by Stacey Kennedy

(Click the picture for more info.)

Review:
I pretty much have to said that I like this short story. It is pretty interesting for me to read this short story and kind of amazed by it. I didn't expect that a character would have sex with a ghost who had been dead during the Civil War. Also, I didn't expect that the ghost were a virgin and now he isn't. The reason why he is still is because he have never have the pleasure with women, all he focus on was war and he regret it for not to get to experience it.

Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin

Review:
I have always read this book and finally I did for my class. My class is all about Game of Thrones's philosophy stuff. I am not much a philosophy person, but I took it anyway. The class was kinda okay, but I like to read my book to know what happen and stuff. I'm kinda behind with my class but I will catch up with my reading. 
This book have so many details then the tv show. I finish watching season 1 along with this book to see if some of it similar and some of it are and other aren't. My favorite 3 character from this book would have to be Arya Stark, Jon Snow, and Danys the Mother of Dragons. 
Arya Stark is more of like a tomboy, she want to do what man can do instead of woman. Because to her what women do is boring, all they do is act all ladylike, sew, and so on. Arya want to learn to fight with her Needle, which she got a gift hrom her bastard brother Jon Snow. She rather not called him bastard but a brother. Them two have so much on common and they're both alike.
Jon Snow, in my opinion is so handsome. I jus love his character in this book. He is not immature, he is kind of more likely wise. He know what right from wrong, and he really care about his brothers and sisters, especially his sister Arya. Them two can really connected a lot. Jon hate when someone called him bastard, because of his father Ned Stark. But he got use to it all thank to Tyrion Lannister the Imp.
I love Danys, she is like so amazing and yet so young. I like reading her story, because she show as a strong woman not a weak woman. She keep getting stronger almost everyday no matter what is happening to her. The only person that I really hate was her brother, touching her body and stuff which is not appropriate. I feel like I want to punch this guy in the face but lucky Danys finally did it. She finally stand up for herself and let her late husband kill him with a hot molten gold for a crown on his head. That part was so surreal and crazy at the same time.I'm just proud that this character prove everyone that women are not weal, they are strong and can do anything that they put their mind into it.

The Vampire Hunter's Daughter Part 1 by Jennifer Malone Wright

(Click the picture for more info.)

Review:
This short story is not bad. I can't imagine myself if I have a side of the family who is a vampire and I didn't know nothing about it. I think is would be kind of weird if I just found that my father is a vampire and he has been looking for for years and next thing you know his crew kill off the mother who gave birth to you and trying to protect you all these years. I don't mind reading part 2.

The Summons: A Goblin King Prequel by Shona Husk

Review: 
This prequel is not bad at all, but I want to know more along this story. I can't imagine that I summon the King Goblin if my life were in danger. Eliza summoned Roan, who is the Goblin King, to take her away from there. The way Eliza describe him saying that he is hot, I would rather see that myself. 

Fifty Shades of Grey by E. L. James

Review: 
I borrow this book from my college friend and i have her other 2 series. Boy oh boy. This book is really good in some kind of dirty way. I didn't expect this book would be so much sex. I like Ana, she is a good character, she want to fall in love with this guy name Christian who is a bad ass. But this Christian guy is not bad looking the way the author describe him. I have never met anyone who have a grey eyes and who is all about the BDSM. That a huge no no for me. The ending was a little confusing, but stupid at the same time. I mean I don't understand why Christian won't love her, it is obvious that some people who have witness them two and know they're in madly in love. Why Christian can't keep his eyes off her? Why saying that this have never have to him before and she is the first? Why tell Ana that she put some kind of spells? Earth to Christian, you still have feeling for Ana and you just don't want to admit it. The only thing I am still waiting is the movie. I have got to see this movie and see if is compare to the book I just finish read. I hope the movie is good as the book is.
