Page Turning Tuesday: Infinite by Jodi Meadows

DESTRUCTION
The Year of Souls begins with an earthquake—an alarming rumble from deep within the earth—and it’s only the first of greater dangers to come. The Range caldera is preparing to erupt. Ana knows that as Soul Night approaches, everything near Heart will be at risk.

FLIGHT
Ana’s exile is frightening, but it may also be fortuitous, especially if she can convince her friends to flee Heart and Range with her. They’ll go north, seeking answers and allies to stop Janan’s ascension. And with any luck, the newsouls will be safe from harm’s reach.

CHOICE
The oldsouls might have forgotten the choice they made to give themselves limitless lifetimes, but Ana knows the true cost of reincarnation. What she doesn’t know is whether she’ll have the chance to finish this one sweet life with Sam, especially if she returns to Heart to stop Janan once and for all. (via. Goodreads)

I'm here to tell you right now that Jodi Meadows is not only an amazing and nice person but she is the kind of person who has the ability to put you on the edge of your seat and make you cry tears of joy. And in case if you were wondering, yes, I did had to prevent myself from crying in class again.

I have to say that in all truth, I am sad to see the series end. Personally, I enjoyed how the books came along and especially how I was able to enjoy it. I mean, it's not every day that you randomly decide to do a read-a-thon by reading the book the first time but to win the second book out of pure luck and to be able to get an adorable bookmark made by the author herself and to enjoy sending out tweets! As a book-blogger who is still recent and trying to juggle many things, I am glad that I was able to enjoy this experience and these may be little things to many other people but to me, they're events that inspire to come back and to continue to blog despite how crazy my schedule can be. 

But, of course, that is from personal experience. I cannot promise anybody getting the same, awesome experience that I had lived through. But, I can promise you this; Jodi never fails at creating books that leave you answering questions.

I give this book 5 Nerdy Cats. I enjoyed the fact that Jodi had managed to keep you on the edge of your seat, possibly screaming for somebody not to die, and giving you an amazing and happy ending that I can say that it is hard to master, simply because it depends on how to keep the events links, and is done beautifully. I hope that in the future that Jodi will continue to write more amazing stories.

Asunder by Jodi Meadows




Three words I can say about this book. Fighting, sacrifice, and love. This book is amazing. I was wondering if Asunder is the end, but then I just realized I have the third book in my to-read list on Goodreads (dumb brunette moment)

 
This book took me a while to finish reading. No, I didn't have to force myself through the book. I had a hard to resisting on not coloring the roses on each chapter. Guess who won? I'm pretty your freaking out and being like "OH MY GOSH. YOU CAN'T WRITE IN A BOOK! D:" and I will tell you now, I couldn't help it, so now each chapter has a series of colors. Red, pink, purple, and blue. I think I liked the red roses better since I wasn't running out of ink on that pen. I'm going to post the pictures on Twitter (@BookwormMari) and let me know which colored rose you liked. 
 
I really recommend this book, and if you haven't read the first one, then um, READ IT O: For me it was unpredictable because I had so many questions unanswered from the first book. Like, will Ana become a citizen? Will she be reincarnated? Well, all I can say that she isn't a citizen still (not yet hopefully) and in the book, everybody assumes she won't be reincarnated but there's some little hope in my heart that she will.
 
So, it's obvious that I really loved this book, not because I had the opportunity to actually win a book for the first time, but also to get this awesome yarn pompom bookmark from Jodi Meadows herself (my friends loved playing with that bookmark) and she tweeted me so on that day, I was freaking out, speechless, and had a wide grin on my face. 
 
I give this book 5 Nerdy Cats. Not only because the book is super good but because I had a great experience getting it. This is one of the unforgettable moments in my life and I wanna thank Pitch Dark Books and Jodi Meadows for giving me this experience even though I never even tried to win and being the noob in the YA book blogging community.
 
Next book I will be reviewing is On Fire by Nancy Holder. No, it's not a series. It's a book based from my favorite TV show, Teen Wolf, and when I managed to get it I was like O: OMERGERD! After On Fire I will read Insurgent. Speaking of Insurgent, I think I've gotten Hunger Games and Divergent fever. I have the factions from Divergent on my lock wallpaper and a fan art drawing on Katniss on my normal wallpaper on my ipad. And also, I found a charm bracelet online that has the 5 factions. Hopefully I'll be able to get that for my birthday, (along with a Teen Wolf shirt and so many other thing majingies)

Page Turning Tuesday: Incarnate by Jodi Meadows

    The book Incarnate by Jodi Meadows was amazing. Originally, I would've read the book a few months later if I decided to read it on my own time. But Pitch Dark Days were doing a re-read of the book, so I wondered, why not? Sadly I couldn't read the entire book in one week. It took me two or three weeks due to the fact that I barely have free-time.

To be honest, from my roleplay characters (Yes, I'm a nerd), I can totally understand Ana. Incarnate for me, easily put me in her shoes. But the plot was very unpredictable. In the beginning, I thought that Ana had gained citizen rights, stayed with Sam, and was reincarnated. But I had no idea someone came back and stopped reincarnation for a few hours (I won't spoil the entire thing) But at the end of the book, Ana has gained more confidence and her enemies in the first book are gone.

I randomly won the Dark Days Incarnate contest. So they will be sending me Asunder. I love this book allot, hands down to Jodi Meadows. I can't wait to read Asunder. But for now, as I wait, I will be going back to read Divergent (I had to stop in order to read Incarnate) and if I'll write a review for Divergent also.

I give this book 5 Nerdy Cats. You'll be expecting to see 4-5 Nerdy Cats throughout my blog because most of the books I read are 4-5 Nerdy Cat worthy. I have so many books to read its ridiculous! I just got Indigo Spell (super excited) and I still need to read Insurgent, the Unearthly Series, the Shatter Me series and a few Percy Jackson books as well as almost all of Nicholas Sparks' books (Did I mention I'm a sappy romance reader also?) I'm also planning on watching Beautiful Creatures in the next few days (most likely weeks) and give you the entire series review and movie review. So basically, I have allot to read!
