if i think about the hunger games in peeta's perspective i WILL start sobbing
#imagine you're a boy who's going to die. you're in love with the girl you've been watching from afar. you know your fate.#you just want to help her‚ but then there's the announcement and she's here in front of you‚ kissing you‚ risking her life for you and you#think‚ i could live and i could love. you think she loves you when she hands you the berries‚ when she puts them in her mouth.#then you both survive and you go back home and nothing is real anymore. you have nothing. no family. no friends. no love. just an empty#house. a drunk for a neighbor. the love of your life walking into somebody else's arms. you think‚ i survived the games. i could survive#this. and you also think‚ i should've bit down on those berries‚ should've felt the juice burst before i died.#and then the third quarter quell announcement rings in your ears and you think‚ she will live and i will die as i should have in the first#place. the girl you love kisses you on the beach and somewhere you heart stirs and your mind revolts and you savor every touch she has ever#given to you‚ in front of the cameras and off. because you are a tribute and you are always being watched and snow's presence looms and#you think‚ i know she cares. but you get taken. you get drugged. you get tortured‚ your mind altered. the girl is a mutt‚ a murderer. she's#everything you despise‚ your mind stirs. your heart revolts. you gain more awareness but cannot distinguish reality from fiction and you#have never known katniss' love. the war ends. you heal. you come home. you plant primrose for her. years down the line‚ you grow in love#more than you thought possible. but some days‚ you cannot tell fiction from reality so you ask the love of your life‚ you love me.#real or not real? and she says‚ real‚ and kisses you.#and you sigh and kiss her back and revel in this. a home. a life. a love.#lit#the hunger games#everlark#otp: real or not real?#katniss everdeen#peeta mellark#text#tais toi lys#thgpost

Review: Karthik Delivers
Karthik Raghavan is good at remembering things. Like his bike routes. Or all the reasons he likes Juhi Shah—even if she doesn’t even know he exists. It doesn’t help that she seems to have a crush on his arch nemesis, Jacob Donnell, whose only job is to humiliate Karthik (and get his name wrong). Then Karthik’s luck changes when he secretly agrees to be in a play about the famous musician, Leonard…

Odd one Out by Quinton Skinner
Tumblr media
Title: Odd One Out Author: Quinton Skinner Series: N/A Number of Pages: 307 Genre: Family Life Fiction Publisher: Prospect Park Books Date of Original Publication: May 30, 2017 ISBN: 978-1938849954
Getting them knocked out of the park this month. Read this one quite fast. Honestly regret reading this one.
Odd One Out by Quinton Skinner was a story of a family going through a divorce and the outcome ten years later. The story shows the affects from multiple families’ point of view over two different time periods.
I’m from Minnesota and still live in Minnesota. I actually live two small towns over from where the author lives. I bought this book in Barnes & Nobles at the Maplewood Mall in Maplewood, MN. It was on the shelf designated for staff picks. I like MN based books and thought it was great that a staff member had recommended it. Unfortunately the book being MN based was really the only good thing I have to say about the book. I liked the first half of the book when they were kids. But the second half of the book I honestly disliked.
This book really doesn’t have anything happy about it. Not even the ending. The first half of the book was entertaining and comical. The second half of the book was like an airplane trying to land and missing its landing gear every time. There’s no real resolution for every issue the family member has and there’s no real point to the book. You find out in the end, why the beginning events of the book happened. But all the rest in the middle is pretty much pointless. Just a bunch of events written to fill gaps. Was very disappointed.
 ★ Wouldn’t recommend.

Been thinking about how Donnie and Leo’s insecurities juxtapose each other.
Donnie is insecure about his place in the family, but confident in who he is outside of it.
Leo is secure about being a part of the family, but thinks he’s nothing outside of it.
I think it’s a very interesting comparison that reflects their respective personalities, Donnie’s “Will all I have to offer be enough?” versus Leo’s “Do I even have anything else to offer?”

Review: Real, Not Perfect
Tessa has lived a trouble-free life as the only child of two loving parents–she is well-liked, gets straight As, is on the competitive swim team, and is active in her church youth group. It’s a pretty perfect life! That is, until she comes home from swim practice one day to find that her parents are divorcing. Along with that, her BFF has moved to Florida, and Tessa gets stuck in Intro to…

Out Now - Silence the Past: Gary L. Kreigh
Out Now – Silence the Past: Gary L. Kreigh
This cosy murder mystery grabbed my attention because of its unique theme and the author’s strong voice. With his usual insight, Kreigh explores how the ‘sins of our forefathers’ can affect their descendants, using ordinary people as his subjects and all wrapped up in a mystery with plenty of twists to keep you guessing. Who stands to gain from a notorious past? When the daughter of a board…
