Page Turning Tuesday: Allegiant by Veronica Roth

As I write this review, it has been at least around an hour that I finished reading Allegiant by Veronica Roth. If I had two words to describe this book, it would be, heart and breaking. When I got around to the end, I was close to crying during French class, that's how intense this book was.

Oh, you thought I was going to tell you what happened? AHAHA. No. You need to buy the book, read it, and roll on the floor crying like the rest of us!

Allegiant marks the finale of the Divergent series. Allegiant shows whether civilization will make it or break it, and I cannot tell you ANYTHING.

If you've never heard of Divergent, you can click here to see my Divergent review! If you've been a fan of Divergent for a while, feel free to respond in the comments on your opinion on the book. I may not be able to tell any spoilers, but YOU can *hint hint*

Now that I finally can settle down and re-read Catching Fire before the movie, I'll most likely finish the book in five or six days and start reading another book. OR, I will be spamming you with my Percy Jackson fanfiction until you get tired of it and I start obsessing over a new series (not going to happen in a LOOOONG while)

But I shouldn't stray to other book subjects (super ADD, hello!) Like I said, tell me your opinion on Allegiant. Did you cry? Did you immediately go on Tumblr and cry? Did you roll all over on the floor and cry? You CANNOT tell me you DID NOT CRY. If you didn't cry, then I will slap you with a fish O:
Also, if the world of Divergent was real, which faction would you be in? Do you support the faction system or no? In my opinion, I think I can kick butt being a Dauntless member.

Last but not least, I give this book 5 nerdy cats simply because it almost made me cry during class. You KNOW when a book is good when you want to cry in the middle of a inappropriate atmopshere.
 
Since it's National Novel Writing Month, I am open on recieving any fanfictions on Twitter! Just tweet me the link to your fanfiction on Twitter (@BookwormMari) and I'll be more than happy to retweet or make a personal tweet about it! It must not involve adult or sexual content. And if I have enough time, I'll probably read it!
That's all for this post! I'll see you around! :)

In Recent News...

Okay, I know in August I promised to continue working on this blog. Unfortunately, I've been very busy with school and extra activities to remember. But I PROMISE, like I swear on the River Styx, that I will work on this blog and make it become as known as I want it to be.

So, in the month of October, two books released, House of Hades by Rick Riordan and Allegiant by Veronica Roth. I've managed to read House of Hades within three days and obsess my feels over Tumblr. I am currently reading Allegiant and I am mad at myself for that because I should've finished it by the end of October by now. It's November. I should be re-reading Catching Fire, preparing for the movie!

I will eventually post my House of Hades review within the next incoming weeks. Most likely after I finish reading Allegiant and roll around in my feels.

Not only have I been reading, but I've also been writing. Yesiree! I've joined Wattpad and I've been writing a Percy Jackson fanfiction myself. If you want to check out what I've written so far, click here. And speaking of writing, it's National Novel Writing Month! Is anybody going to submit a novel? Originally, I was planning to, but I decided to leave it for next year. That'll give me enough time to think up an idea and write down and proof read the entire thing. If you haven't heard of about NaNoWriMo, then check it out here!

Also, if you're a HUGE Percy Jackson fan and you have a Tumblr, consider following me. My blog's name is Aphrodite's Mark, and it's at a steady pace when it comes to gaining followers. My ask box is open to anybody and I am willing to response as long as it's not hate mail.
And I plan on making a Facebook page for this blog. But that's in the distant future, when I have the storm around me soothed down.

And last but not least, GoodReads is having the annual GoodReads Choice awards. Click here to check it and out and vote! There's many categories, but one book to pick for each one of them. Did your favorite book make it in the nominations?

That's basically it for this post! Keep your eyes peeled for a review (hopefully) next week! I am making it my goal to finish reading Allegiant this week! I've been very lazy with my reading schedules!
