The Kane Chronicles Book 3 The Serpent's Shadow review

Hello my kittens~~
I've been reading my favourite author's books
back to back cause Rick Riordan is just that awesome!!!
Anyways~
Today's post is the review of the Last book in the Kane Chronicles

which was a bit sad cause it was supposed to be a 5 book series
but Rick Riordan decided not to do that
which I think it's a good idea because the main story ended beautifully
it's better to die a hero than live long enough to see yourself become the villain XD
He did however say that there is a possibility 
that he might write about the Kanes in the future *fingers crossed~~*
Also another sad note, is that 
I got the Hardcover the moment it came out
*I just got around to reading it sue me!*
which doesn't include the Son of Sobek crossover between Percy Jackson and the Olympian
and the Kane Chronicles which is killing me!! 
I can easily get the digital copy but I hate reading digital books...
So I might go and buy the paperback just to read the Son of Sobek XD


Anyways let's get to the book, 
as a known fact of Rick Riordan he writes his books so that 
it's physically impossible for you to put it down
because it's so well written and so action packed that you need to know what happens next
in this book it roughly picks up where it left off in the last one 
Here you get a deeper look at the struggle the main characters go through
I mean come on!
being a teenager is hard enough!
but being a teenager who is a training magician who has to find a way
to kill the big bad thing that's going to destroy the world
while not having that much help from anyone and problems with a love-life
that's got to give you a major headache!
I completely enjoyed this book
it had so many points where I laughed and so many where I almost cried
it's a fantastic ending *for now as stated in the chapters' list*
and it always keeps you guessing~
Also I completely love the Percy Jackson world references~~
it's sooooooo awesome!!
Considering I'm a fan of both series 
I kinda fangirl a bit everytime I read a reference~~

As always Rick Riordan gets nothing less 
than a 5/5 
although I should give him a lower score so he should continue the series XD
but oh well...

These are my thoughts about the book which I finished it in less than a week of reading~~
My next on the reading list is the Assassin's Creed Secret Crusade
I'm going to have to spend a one on one with Altair....
*I don't like the dude very much...*

Anyways I hope you enjoyed this post~~

Thanx for reading and stay tuned for the next post~~
Love and Kisses to All~~ <3

Sophomore Year begins

Hello everyone~~
I know long time no post,
Buuuuut~
there's a good reason, I've been burning stuff ^w^
OK not literary, it's for a scientific experiment I swear...

So basically this year I started driving to my university alone, which is on it's own is really stressful...
 I'm not a bad driver, but the streets are over crowded, it takes forever to reach my Uni
and some awful drivers always causing problems....

Anyway moving on...
this semester I have four labs, which means I slave in one class for three hours
depending on the instructor,
 Like in the chemistry lab we got to burn magnesium, till it turned white
Above is the burner thingie, it makes a pop sound when you turn it on, quite scary.... 

 You can see the magnesium ribbon is still burning in the pic, it looked sooo cute, turning from a silvery colored long ribbon into a beautiful and white thingie you see <3
Here when it has completely cooled down, it has the most awful smell when you drop some water on it, and some parts break off and turn green *didn't take a pic, cause I forgot~*
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Putting happy moments aside, I have tons of material to cover!!!!
I have two books and 5 notepads and a few I didn't get yet, 
That basically mean I have no life this semester....


Yup all of these books are meant to be studied.... except for the Marine Biology book, it's for light reading *Harry Potter reference <3*  


This however is the novel I'm currently reading,  excuse the bad flash, it's 'Dark Fire' by C.J. Sansom
I really love it~~  it's set in London in the 1540s, it's very well written and I can barely stop reading it~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Books aside, I will go over how I spend five days a week, and how little life I have....
three days a week I wake up at 6:45 am and get ready for my first class, 
I come home at................ 5:00pm.....
and I come back exhausted with no energy to go online... *explaining the lack of blogging...*

the rest of the week I wake up the same time, but come home earlier... 
Oh and not to forget, the scorching weather, no autumn for us.....
And I can't have a life this semester....

Well that's pretty much it for my rant~ 
I needed to get it of my chest~


Thanx for reading~  and see you on the next post~
Love & Kisses to all <3
