"Right, of course. But you keep the promise anyway. That's what love is. Love is keeping the promise anyway.”
I LOVE YOU AUGUSTUS WATERS! :D
"Augustus," I said.
"I am," he said. He was staring at me, and I could see the corners of his eyes crinkling. "I'm in love with you, and I'm not in the business of denying myself the simple pleasure of saying true things. I'm in love with you, and I know that love is just a shout into the void, and that oblivion is inevitable, and that we're all doomed and that there will come a day when all our labor has been returned to dust, and I know the sun will swallow the only earth we'll ever have, and I am in love with you.”
The Fault in Our Stars by John GreenMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
If I could only give this a thousand and million of stars, why not for this great book. :)
Oh, I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH. IT MADE ME CRY, MADE ME FEEL GIDDY, MADE ME LAUGH, and EVERYTHING.
I just can't explain my feelings for this book, if I am going to describe all of this, it's going to be all the synonyms of awesomeness. I am speechless. I am in love with this book.
Truly amazing.
Page Turner.
Full of surprises.
New fictional crush: Augustus Waters. :">
Thanks awesome John Green! Your books are so great, just like you! :)

Easy by Tammara WebberMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was an Easy read. As Easy as it'll get you in through the story.
4.5 stars for this book. I don't know what to say. I just can't get out of my mind thinking about this book. It was told beautifully and creatively. It'll teach you a lot of things, especially for girls about self-defence, love, and true friendship.
I thought, this will about Easy - falling in love with a guy you barely know. But it isn't, it has a way of surprising you that the title of this book is not what you really think of.
Jacqueline. J. Ms. Wallace. You pissed me at times, especially when you didn't tell them about that Buck issue. When I though you will let him on your room. Uggghhh. But I love you, because you didn't hold back the pain you felt with Kennedy. You did the things that you need to do to achieve your dreams and defend yourself. You're just so strong.
I love Lucas. His secrets that he kept. The way he defended Jacqueline, all throughout the story. The way he made her feel safe everytime. He was so hardworking, responsible, and YUMMY. Haha. He's just an almost-perfect boyfriend for most of the girls. But I hate it when he didn't trust Jacqueline in her secrets, but there's a reason. And that reason is J will be the one to found out.
Landon.. Oh. I didn't realise he's Lucas until they sent more of their emails. He's so intelligent, talented, unlike Lucas - at first. But those things proves that we can't always judge anything on the outside.
The Jacqueline and Erin friendship was awesome. I loved it. Erin didn't even tried to ditch J, even though she's not that famous on their school. I love how Erin defended her from Chaze, because of Buck. She chose friendship before boyfriend.
Benji was also a fun character. I like him that he's gay and he was the one who told J about Lucas as the tutor. He was just a happy person - for me. :)
Kennedy, isn't a perfect boyfriend, but a formal boyfriend. I hate how he always debates. and flirts. Yes.
So, cheers to Tammara Webber for this awesome book. Thanks for sharing your imagination with us. *hugs*

So I'm still wondering, what to buy...
To Be Honest by P.J. YoungMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Disclaimer: The copy of this book (in ebook format) was given to me free of charge in exchange for an honest review.
This book, is just so sweet. You can gain knowledge whilst reading this book that you can apply in your daily life. I love this, because it has a touch of "french words" that I love to learn. :)
I didn't intend to read To Be Honest because I'm not familiar with it, to be honest. To be honest, I was bewildered because the copy of the book was given to me for free (imagine, I didn't need to pay for this.), as I read the synopsis of the book, it seemed interesting so I gave it a go.
To Be Honest by Polly J. Young, is a light, fun, sweet, and short read. This is about, family, friends, love, and other relationships that you will encounter through your entire high school life. It keeps confusing me at times, but as I go on through the story, it is worth the confusion.
I just love Lisi, that she idolises Miss Mint, but Miss Mint was actually like her who tells lies most of the time. She has her flaws, but still she can carry it and just have fun. To be honest, I love them both, even though at times they have fights because of lying, they still managed to get through with the situation and get back in their real lives.
Lisi's friends, was so adorable, especially Josh, who has a lot of responsibilities and problems but still he was able cope up with those. He's just so lovable. :")
But I was left hanging in the end, because I have no idea what happened to the characters. Yeah really, I want to know what happened to all of them. (will this have a sequel?)
To be honest, I just had a hang-over from this book, because I keep using "To be honest" here. haha. :)
I recommend this to all who loves to read short novels and a light and fun read. :
To Be Honest, Merci P.J. Young

Wanderlove by Kirsten HubbardMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
"Wanderlove: each other"
I was caught by the beauty of it's cover. and the title WANDERLOVE, made me wonder.
The moment I started reading this, I felt excitement, because wandering/travelling is what I love most - to do in the future. Whilst the word Wanderlove hasn't coming out yet, I thought it should be Wanderlust. But as I got through the story, I understood its meaning.
Every page, every chapter has it's own surprises. The book made me laugh, confused, giddy, pissed, and excited. Especially Rowan and Bria's crazy adventures, the way they pissed each other, the descriptions of the people living in the suburbs, and most especially their different kind of love story. The plot of this is just so awesome, that I want to go there at the very moment I'm reading it. I've never read a book that has the same kind of story, this just felt so real and my imagination's getting bigger and bigger as I went through.
I love the way it was told differently , I especially love the way that there are drawings in it. Oh, those drawings amazed me, like I have to tell my sister "Hey, look at this, there's a drawing." and I found my self smiling every time I'm going to see a drawing. :)
This book has taught me something, Never let the pain hold you back. It applies to me at this current phase of my life, and I'm happy I picked this book to read, because it has made me realise a lot of things and I can relate to it (except the fact that I found another love).
i hope to find my wanderlove in the future. This made me love travelling more.
thank you Kirsten Hubbard for letting me wander in your imagination through the work you've done. :)

The Sea of Tranquility by Katja MillayMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
"Your garage." were the last words of this book. And it gave me SUNSHINE
BEAUTIFULLY WRITTEN. I WILL GIVE THIS MILLION OF STARS IF I COULD. *CRIES* I'm in love with the story. Seriously, yes. and with JOSH. :"")
The book I can't put down (even if it's an ebook). Didn't feel that it's already dawn and I need to sleep. My eyes hurt, but no, I won't put it down. The book that left me hanging in the end. WHY? 58 chapters, but I NEED MORE. I WANT MORE. //3
But I really LOVE, SUPER LOVE this book, but I can't explain it in words, I just LOVE it. This is just too AWESOME. BREATH TAKING. BEAUTIFUL. And It left me speechless in the end. Oh I wish it would be longer, I want to know what happened to Nastya, I mean Emilia and Josh. Drew and Tierney. *cries*
I just can't hide my love for this book, I don't want to finish this yet, and as I'm about to reach the end, I feel sad and happy at the same time, sad because it's going to end, HAPPY because I've read the MOST AMAZING book ever. *cries*
As you eventually goes throughout the story, you'll be pissed, you'll get giddy and in-love, you'll cry and laugh, and it'll put you back into whole as you read the story. This book will definitely teach you and lets you realise something, something that you can apply in your life and share to others.
This story will always be a part of me, and I'll always remember reading this book (and I will read this book all over again..)
Thank you so much KATJA MILLAY for this wonderful work that you've done. (Can I just hug you, please?) :')

| To complete this series is one of my Christmas Wish. I only own a copy of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Goblet of Fire, and Order of the Phoenix. I hope I could buy the other four books this coming Christmas :) |

| Having a bookshelf (also an own bedroom) is one of the many dreams I have in life. I want to have a space like this at home where I can read peacefully :) |
"Book collecting is an obsession, an occupation, a disease, an addiction, a fascination, an absurdity, a fate. It is not a hobby. Those who do it must do it. Those who do not do it, think of it as a cousin of stamp collecting, a sister of the trophy cabinet, bastard of a sound bank account and a weak mind."

| I really love reading books. And those books that I've read and will read makes me feel and dream that I'm also one of the characters in the story :) |

"No relationship is perfect, ever. There are always some ways you have to bend, to compromise, to give something up in order to gain something greater…The love we have for each other is bigger than these small differences. And that’s the key. It’s like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot."
"So I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them."
"Music is a total constant. That’s why we have such a strong visceral connection to it, you know? Because a song can take you back instantly to a moment, or a place, or even a person. No matter what else has changed in your or the world, that one song says the same, just like that moment."
