I don't care what anyone says. I love Inuyasha, and I always will love Inuyasha. It was my first anime and manga, and I have never found a better story than it!

So . . .

. . . The fact that they are bringing back the anime to finish the story since the manga has ended has made me . . .

I LOVE MY LIFE!!!!!!!

Book Review: Kissed by an Angel (Trilogy)
[ Pride & Prejudice ] Keira

www.amazon.com/Kissed-Angel-Collectors-Power-Soulmates/dp/0671023462
 
An angelic romantic suspense trilogy in one volume! "Kissed by an Angel": Ivy and Tristan have the love of a lifetime--until Tristan dies in a car accident. Now Tristan returns as an angel, but Ivy is unable to feel his presence. "The Power of Love": Tristan has learned that the person responsible for the car crash is after Ivy. Can he cross the boundaries of life and death to warn Ivy that she is in trouble? "Soulmates": Tristan must rescue Ivy, but if he does so his mission will be finished and he will have to leave his true love forever.

This amazing book is written by Elizabeth Chandler, and I just finished reading it last night.

While this book is sad most of the way through, it will touch you in ways that I could only have dreamed about.  I won't deny that I cried like a baby through most of it.

I really hated the Suzanne character in the story.  I thought she was incredibly rude to her best friend that she's had since she was a child.  I could have definitely lived without her character.

A book that I would definitely recommend to someone who feels like reading a powerful romance that will stick with them after it is finished.

Book Review: The Mortal Instruments Trilogy
[ Inuyasha ] Inuyasha holding Kagome
[info]elvaria
So, I love to read, but I also love to read good books.

And I just read my new favorite book series.

It even beats out Twilight.  Yes, I said it.  I loved this series way more than Twilight.  The story had more plot, action, better romance and way more thought into it.  And it was really funny! I found myself laughing quite a few times in the story.

This series isThe Mortal Instruments trilogy.  There are three books: City of Bones, City of Ashes and City of Glass.

Oh Cassandra Clare, you are an amazing woman.

I read these three books within a span of four days, and it was probably the best four days I've had in awhile.  This book had everything -- twists, turns, unrequited love, adventure and fantasy.

Oh man, I would love, love, love to see this on film.  However, I know that the book will be way better because I know that they can't fit all the small details into a two hour movie.  But I would love to see this epic adventure come to life.

Here is a summary for the first book, City of Bones, if you are interested:

When fifteen-year-old Clary Fray heads out to the Pandemonium Club in New York City, she hardly expects to witness a murder -- much less a murder committed by three teenagers covered with strange tattoos and brandishing bizarre weapons. Clary knows she should call the police, but it's hard to explain a murder when the body disappears into thin air and the murderers are invisible to everyone but Clary.

Equally startled by her ability to see them, the murderers explain themselves as Shadowhunters: a secret tribe of warriors dedicated to ridding the earth of demons. Within twenty-four hours, Clary's mother disappears and Clary herself is almost killed by a grotesque demon.

But why would demons be interested in ordinary mundanes like Clary and her mother? And how did Clary suddenly get the Sight? The Shadowhunters would like to know....

The characters even have geeky qualities about them that make me happy (I.E. anime, manga and video games).

I definitely recommend this book! You will not regret it.

Tristan + Isolde is one of my favorite movies.  I love, love, love this movie. Here are some of my favorite scenes with some quotes from the movie.
