The tag

I decided to do the bookish identity tag, because reasons.
This tag was created by LittleBookOwl, BenjaminofTomes and Katytastic on youtube.
Here's the original video:


Now on to the questions!

What dystopian/fantastical world would you live in?

Most worlds in books are dangerous, but I think I would love to live in Middle Earth because elves and hobbits and awesomeness!

Who would your partner be?

This is a really hard question! There are soo many characters that I love and I would, basically, do, but I think I'd go with Cricket from Lola and the Boy Next Door. He's just adorable and I love him.

Who would be your godly mother/father? [Percy Jackson]

I took this quiz and it said that my mother is Aphrodite. I ain't even mad! If I chose my godparent myself, I would've gone with Athens.

Would you be a downworlder or nephilim? [Shadowhunter world]

I'd be a downworlder, a vampire to be more exact, because Simon. <3

Which house would you be in? [Harry Potter]

Pottermore sorted me in Ravenclaw which makes me a very proud one :D

Which faction would you be in? [Divergent]

Took the quiz from The Path to Allegiant thingie and I got Erudite. I would go in Amity tho, because I don't think I would be able to withstand the amount of things I would have to learn.

What would be your daemon [Northern Lights]

I haven't read the book series or know anything about it, but I took this quiz which I don't think is very accurate, and it gave me squirrel. Oh well.

I don't know who to tag because I have no friends *cries*, but if you see this and wanna do it, go ahead! And link them to me because I would love to read them! Not even kidding! I love this tag! 

K. Bye.
Di.

Top 5 to read in the Christmas season

Christmas is coming! In two months and one day, but the yule tide has already made it's way into my heart, thus making me feel the need to write this post.

1. Let It Snow by Maureen Johnson, Lauren Myracle and John Green

This book is about three love stories happening around Christmas. If you tell me this isn't enough to make you read this in the christmas season, I don't know what will!













2. Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling

Every time I think of Christmas I think of fairy tales for some reason and that's why I think Christmas is the pest time to read Harry Potter by the fire with a mug of hot chocolate/tea/wine (I don't recommend the last one). So I think, even if you read just one book from the series this coming season, that you will feel better and more whole. Because the birth of Jesus was not enough!











3. The Tales of Beedle the Bard by J.K. Rowling

I think this is one of the most perfect Christmas books to read! They are brilliant and you can finish this book in about an hour, even less! I hope that in 50 years this book will be the same as tales of the Grimm brothers are right now, known by everyone. Oh, wait, THAT'S HARRY POTTER!












4. The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien

You might see a pattern here *sighs* but this book is really good and when I read it I felt like I read it at Christmas time. If you love hobbits and magic and gnomes and awesomeness (and thilbo) you should totally read this book around Christmas time. I hope I will.












5. Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins

LEVEL UP! So, this book is so fucking good! And I don't necessarily think this is better to read this season, but I do. Everything that has to do with contemporary-fluffy-adorable-romance should be read this season because if will increase the level of fluffiness in your soul.












So this has been it! I hope you enjoyed my recommendations!
Thank you for visiting my blog <3
Goodbye,
Di.

Open letter to Veronica Roth

(if you haven't read Allegiant, you shouldn't read this)

Dear Veronica Roth,

I've read all your books. I love all your books. You are one of the most brilliant author out there. And I hope you read this one day, because it would mean a lot to me, not in an attention-seeking type of meaning, but in an actual deep meaning because your books made me feel things. I don't know how you do it, but you turned your last book in something more heart wrenching than a book by John Green (I know they're different genres, but yours made me leak like a freaking faucet for an hour!).
I know people will hate on you, especially the fangirls, for doing what you did in Allegiant. I don't hate you, and never will. You have every right to do what you did. You are the God of this story, to put it this way. I know you wanted Divergent to stand out from any other dystopian novel. I understand. I don't know necessarily what the purpose of this letter is, but mostly, I want you to know that I understand. I deeply, truly understand.
It broke my heart into tiny pieces when I read that scene and everything following. From before that, I started tearing up and when that happened, I started truly crying. Every time I remember her last thoughts or the way he reacted I feel a pressure in my chest, where my heart is. And then the tears come kicking and screaming to come out.
If any of your readers stumble upon this, I hope they understand and they don't hate you. You are a very talented and intelligent and really awesome (because adjectives) writer and I hope books will come spilling from you from now on.

Love,
Di, from Romania.

P.S.: Not even my cats can help me with my mourning.

Updates and things

The updates part: You may or may not have noticed that I haven't been posting as frequently as I used to. It's not like I've been posting a lot before, but I sure was posting at least once every other week.
Here's the reason of my absence: I started school last month. And I'm in my last year of highschool and I have lots of things to do: I have to write a thesis thingie from which I will get a diploma that I finished music school; I have a huge exam at the end of the school year that will decide my whole future, somehow. I'll sit exams for Romanian, English, Computer Technology, History and Philosophy. I have to study a lot only for Romanian, History and Philosophy, and they're kinda hard.
Also, I didn't write because I didn't know what to write about and, even if I have some books I have to review. I just didn't feel like it.
And now to the things part:
I made myself a program thingie for the books I read next. I just finished City of Glass, which was amazing, and I'll follow the program from now on, until I finish all the books I'm planing to read.
Henceforth, the list!

Before finishing City of Glass, I planned to read this right after it. I already read some from it and I cannot wait to get back into it.

Allegiant is coming out in two weeks and 3 days, what else of a reason would I have?

This comes in a week and something after Allegiant. I need comforting after it.

The movie comes out in November, and I won't be reading Catching Fire before the movie comes out because I'll judge the hell out of it and I'll end up probably hating it. It's also been about a year since I finished the series and I really want to reread it. I don't remember anything!

I'll have to read Catching Fire after the movie comes out. Yup.

So here ends my list! After reading these books, I'll probably be kinda sad, but I'll have to go with it. And keep on reading.

I have to go now. I missed posting and this post might just be rubbish and I don't care! I know I ramble a lot, but I still don't know what people are expecting of me to write or what's right or what's wrong to write to write on a blog like mine.

Goodbye,
D.
