Description: 

Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten.

Insightful, bold, irreverent, and raw, The Fault in Our Stars is award-winning author John Green's most ambitious and heartbreaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny, thrilling, and tragic business of being alive and in love.

My Thoughts: 

I liked the book, It was good, got to know a lot about cancer patients and their struggles but its not my cup of tea. I already saw the movie and liked it too, so a lot of elements were not surprising. It didn't made me cry, instead it made me confused. whether I really like it or not. I am still confused about it. I liked the humor in the book a lot more towards the end. The second half or the sad part of the book was more interesting than the starting chapters. The writer had written so many good things, I will give to him for that but as a sad love story hmmm, nope it was that appealing. It would have been better if it was not cancer, then I can digest the story-line. Definitely not reading it again but will like to quote this book, that were some damn good lines. About characters in this story I liked Gus but not Hazel. Her sense of humor is good but she is bitchy sometimes, may be some will blame it on her cancer but still one should not be that rude to her loved ones. And Gus definitely is a good book boyfriend(funny,loving,caring and understanding).
Recommended to those who like sad ,star crossed love stories.

My rating:

I give this book 3.5 stars out of 5.

Description: 

After serving out a year of hard labor in the salt mines of Endovier for her crimes, 18-year-old assassin Celaena Sardothien is dragged before the Crown Prince. Prince Dorian offers her her freedom on one condition: she must act as his champion in a competition to find a new royal assassin.

Her opponents are men-thieves and assassins and warriors from across the empire, each sponsored by a member of the king's council. If she beats her opponents in a series of eliminations, she'll serve the kingdom for four years and then be granted her freedom. Celaena finds her training sessions with the captain of the guard, Westfall, challenging and exhilirating. But she's bored stiff by court life. Things get a little more interesting when the prince starts to show interest in her... but it's the gruff Captain Westfall who seems to understand her best.

Then one of the other contestants turns up dead... quickly followed by another. Can Celaena figure out who the killer is before she becomes a victim? As the young assassin investigates, her search leads her to discover a greater destiny than she could possibly have imagined.

My Thoughts: 

After so long I am giving a book 5 star rating. That's how much I liked this book. I loved it and I am going to buy every damn book by Sarah J Mass. She is officially my new favorite author. What was I doing all these years without reading her books???.
The things I loved about book:
1) The plot
2)Main lead (Celaena)
3)lead Boys (Dorian more than Chaol)
4)The writing style of author
I am sure I am forgetting something but thats pretty much it. Basically I loved everything about this book. I liked how she a badass assassin but the same time she is girlish. Most of us are so use to badass girl character to be like male version of Batman or something where they are brooding and no fun. No, That doesnt work for me. One can be badass and girlish at the same time right?. Celaena is like that. Her self-centered, arrogant, sassy and girly behavior make her more original than all those self-righteous main lead heroins of some YA novels. One is not always perfect, some have bad habits and bad nature but the one who overcome those things and do good are more like my idols. If you are into a badass woman assassin with little bit of girl qualities then you should definitely read it.

My rating: 

I give this book 5
stars out of 5.

Description:

In the magical underworld of Victorian London, Tessa Gray has at last found safety with the Shadowhunters. But that safety proves fleeting when rogue forces in the Clave plot to see her protector, Charlotte, replaced as head of the Institute. If Charlotte loses her position, Tessa will be out on the street—and easy prey for the mysterious Magister, who wants to use Tessa’s powers for his own dark ends.

With the help of the handsome, self-destructive Will and the fiercely devoted Jem, Tessa discovers that the Magister’s war on the Shadowhunters is deeply personal. He blames them for a long-ago tragedy that shattered his life. To unravel the secrets of the past, the trio journeys from mist-shrouded Yorkshire to a manor house that holds untold horrors, from the slums of London to an enchanted ballroom where Tessa discovers that the truth of her parentage is more sinister than she had imagined. When they encounter a clockwork demon bearing a warning for Will, they realize that the Magister himself knows their every move—and that one of their own has betrayed them.

Tessa finds her heart drawn more and more to Jem, but her longing for Will, despite his dark moods, continues to unsettle her. But something is changing in Will—the wall he has built around himself is crumbling. Could finding the Magister free Will from his secrets and give Tessa the answers about who she is and what she was born to do?

As their dangerous search for the Magister and the truth leads the friends into peril, Tessa learns that when love and lies are mixed, they can corrupt even the purest heart.

My Thoughts: 

wow just Wow...Friendship, Love and Betrayal ?!!! It contains all of them. This book was like a beautiful journey. I liked the way it ended, leaving the readers to think about the book after several hours of completing it. I completed this book in afternoon and I am still thinking about what to do with me now. I can't help thinking about all the characters. Its like they have become real person... I am laughing and crying with them.
This book has left me with happy and sad thoughts at the same time. Happy for Charlotte and Henry and Sophie too. But I can't decide whether I am happy for Jem or Sad for Will.
I was team Will from starting and I am so heartbroken for her. AGGHH I really hate love triangles. But they are good to add drama in the story and because of it I also like it. Oh God what to do with me now. This book had just made the story way more interesting than it was before. I liked it better than last one. I am really looking forward to read the last book in the series.

My Thoughts:

My first book of Cassandra Clare and I am impressed. It was good read and I enjoyed the book. Even though I excepted a lot more but I guess historic genre is not my cup of tea so I am gonna read this series as fast as could so that I can read The Mortal Instruments series. But Clare wrote this one very well, I can see a lot thought was put into the book. I heard a lot about these series therefore I read them and I am not regretting it. I like the plot and characters. The start was very slow for me but I really enjoyed it after few chapters. I am sucker for fantasies and bookboyfriends who are witty. I guess I am in love with Will and I am jealous of Tessa. Anyways definitely a good book should read it. I highly recommend it if you are into historical novels.

 My rating:

 I give this book 4 stars out of 5.
