Brain Jack by Brian Falkner - 3 Stars

It was hard to get into in the beginning but after about 100pgs it got better. I was not expecting who Blue was. I was like 'WHAT!!!. That was a surprise and then aftrer that everything was cute.*

February Wrap-Up

All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven - 2 stars

I got a Kindle which I love so much and I bought some books

Movies I watched
Horns - It was funny because of the awkward parts but it didn't have that same dark vibe has the book. And they changed a lot of parts and changed some characters parts too. 

Judas Kiss (2011) - I don't what to say about this. I just watched it because of this one actor. It was okay but at the same time I didn't get it and think it could of been done differently.

Chronicle (2012) - This was a re-watch and it is an amazing movie. 

The Maze Runner (2014) - Another re-watch, mostly because of the boys :) but also because I wanted to re fresh my mind on what happened. I'm going to read the book sometime this year. And I can't wait for the next movie.

Commitment (2013) - This is a Korean film I watched on netflix. Yes, I love watching action foreign films. Its about this 19 year old boy who takes a spying mission to free his sister and then things happen, he becomes a traitor and his government tries to kill him. It was really good and sad. 

The Amazing Spider-Man (2012) and The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014) - They was okay. I actually liked the story line for this one then the original Spider-Man. 

Shows I watch
The 100 - I love this show and it just keeps getting better with every episode

Agent Carter - It was alright, the story/plot was kinda boring. Love Peggy but I can't wait to see Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The Flash - A new favorite.

Gotham - It's ok but its pretty boring. 

Eye Candy - So far it's boring and they keep focusing on other things besides the person who is stalking her. But I will contiune to watch because I want to see where this goes and who is the person.

Cat Fish: The TV Show - I have been watching some old epsiodes and those just made me want to watch the new season, which started on wednesday.

September Wrap-Up

This month was dissapointing for the reading part. In the beginning of the month I finished two books, thought I was on a roll but it went down hill. I didn't read anything else. Last week I did start Hero by Perry Moore. Got 100 pages in and then I stopped because I wasn't in the mood to read it. Last night I started Seconds: A Graphic Novel by Bryan Lee O'Malley. That will be included in my october wrap-up.
