Insurgent by Veronica Roth
Come on, Insurgent,”
“What?”
“Insurgent,” he says. “Noun. A person who acts in opposition to the established authority, who is not necessarily regarded as a belligerent.” I look at Fernando. The last time I broke into a faction’s headquarters, I did it with a gun in my hand, and I left bodies behind me. I want this time to be different. I need this time to be different. “I like it,” I say.
“Insurgent. It’s perfect.”

So book two to the Divergent Series finally came out this year...i was not disappointed...the plot was action packed and intricate...the characters are really fleshed out and i love how Tris and Tobias aka Four's relationship evolved in this book...and i get to learn more how each faction interact with other factions during this very hostile times. Ms. Roth you rock!!!

I think it's Veronica not Viktoria. Pero baka ibang book naman hehhe. But if I am not mistaken, it's a book by Paolo Coelho.

Veronika took her own life but woken up in a mental facility of a doctor who saved her. Then she learned that she's ill and about to die.

Now, would it be a good news for her or would she value her life more?

I have to buy another copy of this kasi hindi na binalik ng friend ko yung book. I want to re-read this.

It's Veronika...Nakikinig kasi ako sa Spice Girls nung sinulat ko un.

Review? I'm not good in making one...

Ganito nalang...

I've only read two Coelho books—the other was The Alchemist. Sa dalawa, mas gusto ko ang Veronika. It's because I find the story and the characters fascinating...

Is it a good read? Definitely.

A Song of Ice and Fire Book 1: A Game of Thrones

The writing style was good and no lenghty narrations that will bore you to death. At first, I was taken aback with the flow of the story. But as I go on reading it, I was more compelled to read more and nibble every word of it. It is different from LOTR. The story was laid out nearly as much as possible with reality with a little touch of magic. Every character has his/her own strengths and weaknesses. You will love and hate them at the same time. You can relate with one of the characters and root for him/her. It tackles about the politics of the realm; being true to your words; about love.

Family.Duty.Honor.

Those are important and must be upheld for WINTER IS COMING.
