Hey guys!
My exams are over and now I get to relax and read for 2 weeks until next semester! I've already finished The Secret Hour (Midnighters Book 1) by Scott Westerfeld and that was really really good! I loved it!!
I've got under 1000 pages left in The Stand now! I'm finally making some progress in that thing! :)
I've got quite a few books I've borrowed from people for over the holidays, so for me it's going to be non-stop reading! I'll be happy if I at least finish The Stand, cause that's a damn long book!
Have you guys got any books for over your holidays?
16 days to go till mine end, and they've only just started... *angrily shakes fist at Victorian Education Department cause they suck*
Until next time,
Byeeee!

Exams!!
Hey guys!
I have mid-year exams next week! They start on Friday and I'm freaking out! I've got so much revision to do, but I think I'll do alright, well fingers crossed!
My maths is all done and dusted, I've finished my revision on that, and for English, I'm reading Montana 1948 again for the essay we have to do on it in the exam. German is pretty good, although there's still heaps to do, Art sucks and there's is so much still to do on that, Visual Communication is fine (it's one of those subjects you can just go in and wing it!), and Economics... Well there's a lot of revision there!
The one's I have on Friday are English and Vis-Comm, so i'll be okay, but that weekend is going to be me locked in my room revising! It's not terribly appealing, as I would just like to be reading that whole time, but I have to do it...
My Netball team has gone undefeated all season so far! Today we won 26-7 and it was so much better because that team is really mean so we got 'em!
Anyways, I've got some studying to do!
Bye!

Days of Blood and Starlight By Laini Taylor
I read this when it just came out, and absolutely loved it.
Karou is discovering more about her old self, Madrigal. We find out that Karou has left Prague, and Kaz is taking advantage of the situation, trying to get as much publicity as he can get over what had happened on the bridge. Karou can no longer trust Akiva and becomes a resurrectionist just as Brimstone was, as well as her former-self.
It was written in such a realistic way, and the betrayal that Karou just can't forgive Akiva for, no matter how much she wants to, is so fun to read, and yet so heart-breaking. You hear about their previous love-life and you just want to scream, KISS AND MAKE-UP ALREADY!! AHH! You want them to and you can feel they're being pulled together again, but Karou suddenly says to herself, he killed my family, and you know there's this nagging voice saying, he didn't want to, he didn't know they weren't monsters. But no. and it makes me sad!
I thought it was fantastically written, with an equally wonderful storyline as the first one, and I love it! So much!
