English Books: "Insurgent"

Hey there, guys! What's up?

I've been reading. Quite a lot, to tell you the truth :)

Okay, so here's my review on "Insurgent" by Veronica Roth.
This saga is pretty amazing, but I think I liked the first book best.
In this sequel, Tris and Tobias have to fly away from Erudite. They encounter the Factionless and also ally with the few Abnegation people who were left after Erudite's attack.
Tris has lost her family, except for Caleb.
They go searching for help to Amity, but will they give it to them?
In the meantime, will Tobias/Four be able to cope with his abusive father?
What's outside the fence... If it's so very important to keep it outside from Chicago?

And more importantly... Against whom is the war to be fought? The Factionless, Erudite, Abnegation, Dauntless, Amity, Candor, family or... yourself?


Nice book, you should read it :)

English Books: THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS BOOK FIVE, City of Lost Souls

Here we are again :)

I finished this fifth book on the Mortal Instruments saga almost a month ago, I don't know why I didn't write about it before... And I still have to finish "David Copperfield" and "The Lord of the Flies"... Upps `:)...
Anyway, lets hear about "City of Lost Souls".
It's a pretty nice book, I enjoyed myself a lot.

After defeating demon Lilith, Jace was nowhere to be found. Five minutes before he was there and, suddenly, puff!
Clary is exhausted, the same as Isabelle and Alec, because the Clave is centred in finding Sebastian and not Jace, though his friends are pretty sure they should look for them both in the same place.
Clary manages to get to Jace thanks to some curious situations. But he is not Jace any longer. He is a servant of evil, bound for all eternity to Sebastian.
Eventhough, Clary still thinks she can be saved but to accomplish such a thing she has to defy the Clave by not telling them that she has found Jace's location.
In the meantime, Simon and the others are also struggling through some difficulties to help her and, in addition, Jace.
Apart from the main plot, you get really interested in Simon's love life. Also Alec's.

English Books: The Host

Hey, there!!
See, guys, I fell in love with the film based on "The Host" so I ran to buy the book. I'm not used to watching the film before reading the initial artistic element but... What can I say, this time it happened that way.
Anyway, I finished it ages ago and just wanted to talk to you about it.
"Melany Strider refuses to fade away" . An alien race has invaded the Earth and  are taking for hosts the bodies of almost every human on the surface.
But some still resist. Melany belonged to them until she got caught and was given a soul, named Wanderer, to occupy her body.
Wanderer is a soul who, as her name suggests, has travelled a lot. She's been to eight planets and spent a whole life cycle of her hosts in them.
The Seekers, souls in charge to find the resistance, hope that she's able to search Melany's mind to find answers to "Where's the base of the humans?" "What do they really expect to do?" "How many?"
The thing is that they don't count with the fact that Melany might still be there.
Some humans stay inside themselves and co-exist with the souls. Not many. But it's a possibility. And, of course, the strength of Melany helps her to survive.
Oh, and this special problem grows bigger every single day because... Melany and Wanderer kinda... connect. They get to be friends. And Melany's feelings for Jared, his boyfriend, get to be shared by Wanderer.
What will this feelings take them to? Will it be their salvation... or their destruction?

Find it out by reading the book, guys. It's totally awesome. I got all sentimental when it finished, couldn't believe that was it and no more was coming. :)

I post its data, hope you manage to find it easily!! ;):
