Novel Reflection: Existence - Abbi Glines

Pagan Moore doesn't cheat Death, but instead, falls in love with him.

Seventeen year old Pagan Moore has seen souls her entire life. Once she realized the strangers she often saw walking through walls were not visible to anyone else, she started ignoring them. If she didn't let them know she could see them, then they left her alone. Until she stepped out of her car the first day of school and saw an incredibly sexy guy lounging on a picnic table, watching her with an amused smirk on his face. Problem is, she knows he's dead.

Not only does he not go away when she ignores him, but he does something none of the others have ever done. He speaks. Pagan is fascinated by the soul. What she doesn't realize is that her appointed time to die is drawing near and the wickedly beautiful soul she is falling in love with is not a soul at all.

He is Death and he's about to break all the rules.

This booking is absolutely amazing, the concept of the story is so creative who would've thought of Death falling in love. Abbi Glines has created just lovable characters and to end it off, she leaves a GINORMOUS cliff-hanger. I can't wait to start on the second book of the trilogy, LOVE IT! <3

HOLLYWOOD - JoJo :]

This is one of the most meaningful songs I've ever came across, I absolutely love it. The song is so much better than lemonade on a summer's day (LOL...what?!), it's has a very true message if you listen closely to the lyrics. It's about HOLLYWOOD... (Obviously), and how the industry is always after the next new and fresh thing. It's a non-stopping cycle of forgetting & abandoning old stars, and just chasing to keep up with the new ideas & stars or what makes for money. Also about how all the money and fame will soon fade in time and your minute of fame will just be washed away by other new and young stars. Plus in the song, JoJo uses "A Man" as a metaphor for the industry... HOLLYWOOD. SHE IS AMAZING!
Le Forever JoJo Fan.
(P.S: The song has curse words! I know! Ms.Patrice will sooo TOAST MY BACON... o.O dead meat...still an AWESOME song though LOL) =]

When My Name Was Keoko. Like? Dislike?

I really enjoyed When My Name Was Keoko, at the beginning I imagined myself boring myself to death with the book (no offense :], but really? I enjoyed this book. I liked how the author could write and create realistic problems and events, like how Tae-yul had to train in the army, or how Uncle's still gone in the ending. The book was descriptive and imaginative. I enjoyed how the author was tricking us into thinking that Tae-yul was really dead, also how Abuji and Mrs. Ahn was both in the resistance. That was really a shock. Overall, the book was great, it was captivating, and I really liked it.

Visualizing "Keoko" ;)

While I reading the novel, I visualzing the neighboorhood accountant, I saw people cheering and singing. A whole crowd screaming their heads off, celebrating the fact the Korea was finally free from the Japanese. I saw people crying and going wild, just like a riot.

5 Questions About Keoko

1. Will Tae-yul bomb one of the Japanese plane?

2. Will Tae-yul die as a kamakaze?

3. What else will Abuji do to help Tae-yul?

4. Will Tae-yul be in jail or persecuted?

5. Where exactly is Uncle or is he dead?
