Hey everyone! It’s been such a long time since I’ve done a movie review! Sunday night, I had the pleasure of seeing my first 3D movie. The movie also happened to be Star Wars VII or Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

This was my first 3D movie as well as my first Star Wars movie. I know, I know, I should’ve watched the others so I knew what was going on blah blah blah. O f course, I didn’t. There was some new characters and a seriously bada** protagonist named Rey. I can’t spoil anything but she does some amazing things and kicks some butt.

Movie Trailer:

This is what I would (a.k.a. Google) calls the official trailer. I recommend watching it if you haven’t so you can see a bit of what the movies like. If you’ve seen this several times, you can watch it again of course xD

My Rating and Thoughts:

My Rating: 8/10 stars

IMDb Rating: 8.7/10 stars

My reactions and thoughts in Star Wars memes and more memes:

That’s my review of Star Wars VII! I definitely recommend this movie! I rated it 8/10 because I’m not into Sci-Fi or else it would’ve gotten a 10/10 or even 11/10.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned for more movie reviews next year XD

Are you going to see the movie? Let me know! If you’ve already seen it, let me know what you thought. No matter what, NO SPOILERS! I don’t want to ruin anyone’s movie experience.

Book Traveling Thursdays (#1)

December 24, 2015December 24, 20151 Comment

Hey everyone! It’s Thursday and that means it’s time for my very first Book Traveling Thursdays! It’s also Christmas Eve!! This weekly meme was created by Catia @ The Girl Who Read Too Much and Danielle @ Danielle’s Book Blog. You should definitely go check out their amazing blogs! The goal of this meme is to share the covers of a book related to this week’s theme, which you can find at the Goodreads Group. You indicate the original cover, the one of your country, and your favorite and least favorite.

This week’s theme is “It’s Christmas Eve!! Choose a book that occurs in Christmas/Holiday season.” This is a bit of a hard one but because I wanted to start this meme so badly, I chose Harry Potter and Goblet of Fire. I know, I know, this is not a Christmassy book but some of the story does happen during the holiday season.

Original Cover:

Cover From My Country (U.S.)

The original and the one for the U.S. look exactly the same.

Favorite Cover(s):

818068 Raincoast books edition 2004

1605607 Spanish

I of course, also like the original.

The Spanish one is beautiful and has a lot of detail.

Least Favorite Cover(s):

German

7979788 Bloomsbury edition 2010

1079278 Dutch

101551 French

My least favorite has to be the Dutch cover. It is part of the story but isn’t what the overall book is about.

I absolutely love this meme and will be doing it as much as possible.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned for more Book Traveling Thursdays!

All I Want For Christmas Book Tag!!

December 24, 20158 Comments

Hey everyone! I’m so excited that it’s almost Christmas! That’s one of the reasons why I’m going to be doing another Christmas book tag. A special thanks to @Catia. You definitely should check out her amazing blog! Today I am doing the All I Want For Christmas Book Tag.

1) What fictional character do you want Santa to leave under your Christmas tree?

There are several answers to this but I’m going to say Ron Weasley! He is my book crush. I don’t care what happens, I still love him xD

2) Character Do You Want to Kiss Under the Mistletoe?

Shoot! I should’ve saved Ron for this one. Just kidding 😀 I’m going to say either Harry Potter or.. Jake from the Phantom Stallion series.

Me If I met Harry or Jake XD

3) You write your Christmas list for Santa, What are 5 books on it?

Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone illustrated edition
Carry On by Rainbow Rowell
Just My Rotten Luck by James Patterson and Chris G.
I Funny TV by James Patterson and Chris G.
Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell

4) It’s Secret Santa at Hogwarts. What do you most want to receive?

I’m going to say chocolate covered frogs or every flavor beans!

5) You get to spend the day with the characters and movie adaption actors from one fandom. What do you pick?

I of course pick the Harry Potter fandom! It would be so amazing to meet all of the book characters as well as the movie actors. That day would be full of some serious fangirling!

6) What fictional animal would you like to replace Rudolph and be able to meet on your roof?

This definitely wouldn’t go well but it would be pretty cool to meet Stitch! Even if he went absolutely crazy, I’m sure Santa and his Christmas spirit would be able to keep him in check!
