Chasing An-Amazing-Book Vermeer

Blue Balliett came to my school one day to speak to us about writing mystery novels. I was captivated by the way she illustrated certain details, and designed code to incase her books in. She talked of road trips and notebooks and just wow. It was amazing. I picked up her book, and you can tell instantly how much effort she put in this book.

It's kind of a children's book, but I believe it is for all ages. Exceptional Read!

Amor Deliria Nervosa and Knives!

Hey guys! If you haven't heard already, WE GOT THE FIRST STILL FOR DIVERGENT! I believe it is the scene where Four throws knives at Tris, since she took the place of Al. Here is a LINK to the article. Also the picture:

Do you recognize the style? It's okay if you don't! The creater of this long awaited picture was taken by none other than the magnificent Jaap Buitendijk. He took all the stills for the Harry Potter movies including this one:


ON THE OTHER SIDE of the Spectrum (not really) we have blog posts from Ms. Lauren Oliver, that I really enjoyed, like:

I can't wait to meet her and have her sign my book this coming Tuesday! I love you Lauren!

Largo: A Whole New Kind of Ship...

So Viria is a Fan artist for Percy Jackson and many other Fandoms. She is amazing at what she does. This is picture of Leo Valdez, our beloved elfy character, and a female version of the outstanding Argo II. I found this fan art by her and I automatically was inspired to write a Fanfiction about it. So here you go people! The first ever Largo Fanfiction! I wonder what Uncle Rick would say of this...

Jurassic Park; Book to Movie

Jurassic Park really kicked off the dinosaur world. Michael Cricton wrote of humans bringing pack long extinct dinosaurs including the T-Rex, Veliociraptor, and much more, using genetics found in Misquitos preserved by tree amber. The main characters include:

Dr. Alan Grant, a paleontologist.

Dr. Ian Malcom, a mathematician who specializes in The Chaos Theory.

Dr. Ellia Sattler, a paleobotinist.

Mr. John Hammond, the creator of the Park.


Even though the movie have noticable differences, they are both exceptional.

My Trip to the Library

It was a beautiful day...
I walked to the library, and picked some books I had put on hold. When I was walking back I decided to take a shortcut. Bad Idea. There was a snake, which I nearly stepped on, although NOT venomous (Gardner snake). Then I had a Diary of a Wimpy Kid moment finding cheese on the sidewalk. And then I partially ruined my sneakers crossing a few creeks. But then I got home and read my Maximum Ride graphic novels. The things I do for books.

I still am not fully happy about it, but I think they are sticking more to the books. I guess we will have to see on August 16th!
