Taggity, tag, tag.
One of my favourite youtubers is Katytastic. I really love her videos because they're very well put together and because they're very informative and helpful.
A few videos ago, she made a tag called Yearbook Hall of Fame.
This is like a usual American Yearbook Hall of Fame, but this one is with fictional characters.
Here are the Categories:
Best Dressed:
I know that many people will say Lola from Lola and the boy next door, I would say as well, but I have a better choice. My choice is Gwendolyn from Ruby Red because I loved the costumes Lady Rossini made her. I love those old costumes a lot and also that age. It seemed so posh and stress free.
Best Eyes:
I chose Four from Divergent because he is described as a guy who has gorgeous dark blue eyes, and I've never heard of that. I love blue eyes a lot, green or gray eyes are my favourite though, and I think this was a bit of an obvious choice for me.
Best Hair:
This wasn't a very easy choice for me because I first wanted to choose Lola because I think that she had an awesome hair, but I don't quite remember how her hair looked. I chose Katniss because, seriously, her hair is awesome!
Best Couple:
My all time favourite couple is Augustus and Hazel. They're just perfect, and I love them so so much! I couldn't choose another couple, not even Gwen and Gideon, who I also adore deeply, but Augustus and Hazel are just too close to my heart.
Class Clown:
Tiny Cooper (Will Grayson, will grayson) is not the funniest person alive, He's not as funny as Fred and George, but he sure is a person who makes people laugh just by walking by!
Biggest Flirt:
I have the feeling that everyone will choose Finnick. Yup. I tried to find someone else, just to be different, but I couldn't. Yup.
Most Dramatic:
Charlotte Montrose from Ruby Red is the most dramatic person EVER! The second way to spell Charlotte is DRAMA! (yes, I do watch too much glee)
Most Musical:
Adam Wilde from If I stay and Where She Went is the perfect choice for this because not only does he know a lot about rock music, but he also knows a lot about other kinds of music. ANd I think that's really important.
Most Likely To Succeed:
Why Sherlock, you ask? Because he always succeeds in solving every case.
Valedictorian:
If you don't know why, you're stupid.
Now that I finished with this tag, I have to leave.
Goodbye!

I BOUGHT 4 BOOKS and I saw something awesome on tv
So last week I bought 4 books! And I'm very excited about them! I haven't read any of them, yet, but I'm really, really excited for them!!
These are the books! Only one of them was bought at an actual book store and is brand new.
The other two books that I bought from the second hand book store are The Adventures of Oliver Twist and a book by Agatha Christie with a name that I have not found in English. I've always wanted a book by Agatha Christie and I really loved the cover of Oliver Twist :D
I'm very sorry for the abundance of posts in the last few days, but me being in a posting mood is a rare thing.
But before I go, I wanted to give a message to every Romanian reader, so don't read if you don't know Romanian (obviously).
De azi intr-o saptamana, pe Pro tv, va fi difuzat filmul Jocurile Foamei, la ora 20, sau dupa stiri, mai exact. Sper ca veti urmari si voi filmul. Pe bune, ma bucur enorm ca il difuzeaza, socant e cine il difuzeaza, pentru ca filmul s-a lansat anul trecut, si il difuzeaza PRO TV-UL!! Ma asteptam la HBO, chiar asteptam asta, dar totusi ma bucur ca cei de la Pro tv au facut in sfarsit o alegere buna! Cea mai aiurea parte e ca v-a fi publicitate foarte des. Meh.
Anywho, now that the Romanian part is over, I have to go.
Goodbye,
J.

My thoughts on a lot of things (or not)
Initially I wanted to only write about the Divergent cast and about books to movies, because I have a very different opinion on books to movies than everyone else I know. However, I thought I should crumble a lot of my thoughts in just a biiig post, because making different posts for so many little things would be too much!
So the first part of this post is, obviously, the Divergent cast.
Mostly, I think the cast is very good, not perfect, but very good! My only problems are the following:
Shailene Woodley is not Tris. I've seen her in The Descendants and she was really good! I'm looking forward for the movie a lot more now!
The other thing that bothers me a bit about the cast is the fact that Theo James is a bit too old for the role. Four is 18, and Theo is 28 and he looks his age. However, I think that they will make him look younger, and also his hair will grow, which usually makes guys look younger!
The thing that bothers me the most is that Uriah won't be in the first movie. WHY, SUMMIT! WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME HATE YOU?! I mean, I understand that they need to find the best actor for the role and that they need other stuff done in the movie, but how the fuck will they introduce them in the second movie?! At least they'll have the zip-line scene in the first movie, which is a very important scene.
The last thing that doesn't really bother me, but it is a bit wrong is that Jeanine Matthews will be played by Kate Winslet. Don't make me wrong, with make up, she'll probably look meaner, but I saw the movie Hanna on tv and not only was it amazing, but Cate Blanchett played in it and that is EXACTLY how I imagined Jeanine.
I really love the rest of the cast. I think it was really well chosen, and also, the guy who will be playing Caleb is SO FUCKING CUTE! :D
The second part of this post is about my thoughts on book to movie adaptations.
Why is my opinion so different, you ask? It's because I don't take for example the movie for The Hunger Games and the book from The Hunger Games and shove them in the same pot. I take them differently. Some of you might say that this doesn't make sense, and it's true, but I can't link a movie to a book. Movies are very different from books for various reasons. One is because some things are meant to only happen in books, and it will not look as good in a movie. I had a very good example for this some time ago but I simply can't remember it, but just think about it. Probably some things that in books are considered normal and awesome, in movies they probably are just seen as cheesy.
On casting, that's a different thing. They usually cast for the lead roles people who aren't that well known, and people who are good actors. They usually don't cast people who are absolutely perfect for the role, because that's just simply impossible.
Just try to find an actor that would be the perfect Augustus Waters. I find that impossible, because he's described as a young handsome man with a "killer jawline" and with gorgeous blue eyes. Everyone, including me, wants Joshua Anthony Brand as Augustus because he actually looks a bit like an almost perfect Augustus. Why not perfect? In some pictures he looks like a sleepy puppy. I'm not sure if he can act because he's a model. I'm following him on twitter and he started reading the book which makes me really happy! Also, John Green fangirled a little bit on his tumblr about him. He would like him as Augustus but he has no say in the casting and stuff V3V
Is he super megafoxyawesomehot? But why, yes, of course he is!
Anywho, I would've liked to also write about music because it's a really important part of my life, but I'm really sick and I'm tired and my nose is full of mucus and it won't get cleaned, not even with horse radish...
Goodbye,

Calling all authors.
Hi there! :D
I'm here because I have something I would like to ask some authors that read my blog.
I would love it if any author who are willing to send me books in exchange of a review to e-mail me at dasspacegandalf@gmail.com. I am in a lack of books to read and I really want to review books.
I feel really bad for asking for this, honest, but if anyone is willing to do that, I would be forever grateful!
Thank you,
J.

Funny idea.
So I watched the most recent vlogbrothers video, which is about North Korea, and I remembered a very funny idea I had a few months ago for a (very) distopian book. It was something like this:
North Korea conquered the world and they are ruling it in tyranny and everyone hates it but the can't say a thing because of obvious reasons and some people have these secret meetings underground or something lie that to destroy and kill the leaders.
So I do believe that I'm gonna do this, but I'm not so sure. Please vote below if you want me to outline it and make a plot and EVERYTHINGGG!!!
Top 5 authors.
This lovely guy made an awesome video telling us his favourite authors ever.
So I'm going to give this a try as well!
I'm going to write about the authors that inspired me the most and the ones that made me want to read more and write more.
J.K. Rowling is the author that inspired probably most of young readers to date. When I was 15, I started reading the Harry Potter books and for about a year I only read these books.
She's the author that inspired me to start reading and to enjoy reading and also to start writing, to get up and pull out the courage and just write! She made this incredible world that made everyone try push the boundaries of imaginations and also inspired children to have an imagination, even if that sounds very strange!
This AMAZING author made me stop reading Harry Potter (and also my best friend). After a year drifting in a HP loop, I finally escaped on a fine August day when I went to my best friends' house to watch The Hunger Games, and I asked her to borrow her copy of the book. I swear that I fell in love with the book really fast! And I finished all the books in less than two weeks, which for me is kinda kewl XD
I am grateful for her work and I am very happy to have stumbled upon this amazing series!
John Green wrote my favourite book of all time, which is The Fault In Our Stars. As Jesse says in the video below, his writing is incredible! He has this kind of writing that makes you think about it all day and it's the most flow-y and poetic writing ever! He and his brother make amazing videos on youtube and I just have to say that I love them both! John writes incredible books, makes incredible videos and Hank is extremely funny and he makes incredible videos on the vlogbrothers channel and also on scishow, which si the most addicting thing on youtube!!
Kerstin Gier wrote the most amazing trilogy I've ever read. Like, ever! Her writing is SO AMAZING! She wrote a lot of books, but she also wrote one of my favourite trilogy ever, which is the Ruby Red trilogy.
I love the way she writes. It's very funny and she made me think about a lot of stuff while reading Ruby Red and the other books. She has the most amazing writing style I've ever read. I have to re-read the books as soon as I get some money and get to buy them!! I can't wait!!!
After I read the books I was left with this gigantic void in my soul. And while and after reading them I felt very inspired to read, but unfortunately, I didn't...
You may or may not recognize this as Veronica Roth. She's one of the most amazing authors at the moment. She's very young (24 yo) and she already wrote two successful books which I am very proud to have read.
She inspires a lot of people who read her blog because of her advice posts and her amazing encouragements! She is one of the most amazing writers up to date, and I'm really really happy that she brought these books to life!
I'm really happy that I shared these amazing authors with everyone, and I hope you read something by them if you didn't already!
Goodbye,
J.
