Delirium Series


Delirium

They say that the cure for Love will make me happy and safe forever.

And I've always believed them.

Until now.

Now everything has changed.

Now, I'd rather be infected with love for the tiniest sliver of a second than live a hundred years smothered by a lie.

Lena looks forward to receiving the government-mandated cure that prevents the delirium of love and leads to a safe, predictable, and happy life, until ninety-five days before her eighteenth birthday and her treatment, when she falls in love.







Pandemonium  

I’m pushing aside
the memory of my nightmare,
pushing aside thoughts of Alex,
pushing aside thoughts of Hana
and my old school,
push,
push,
push,
like Raven taught me to do.
The old life is dead.
But the old Lena is dead too.
I buried her.
I left her beyond a fence,
behind a wall of smoke and flame.

Lauren Oliver delivers an electrifying follow-up to her acclaimed New York Times...






Requiem

They have tried to squeeze us out, to stamp us into the past.

But we are still here.

And there are more of us every day.

Now an active member of the resistance, Lena has been transformed. The nascent rebellion that was under way in Pandemonium has ignited into an all-out revolution in Requiem, and Lena is at the center of the fight.

After rescuing Julian from a death sentence, Lena and her friends fled to the Wilds. But the Wilds are no longer a safe haven—pockets of rebellion have opened throughout the country, and the government cannot deny the existence of Invalids. Regulators now infiltrate the borderlands to stamp out the rebels, and as Lena navigates the increasingly dangerous terrain, her best friend, Hana, lives a safe, loveless life in Portland as the fiancée of the young mayor.

Maybe we are driven crazy by our feelings.

Maybe love is a disease, and we would be better off without it.

But we have chosen a different road.

And in the end, that is the point of escaping the cure: We are free to choose.

We are even free to choose the wrong thing.

Requiem is told from both Lena’s and Hana’s points of view. The two girls live side by side in a world that divides them until, at last, their stories converge.





Eii, ce parere aveti despre aceasta serie? Eu una m-am indragostit deja de ea desi nu am citit-o. Pare absolut minunata si ar fi super daca ar aparea si la noi. Si probabil ati auzit, probabil nu, dar va fi un serial pe baza acestei serii.

Book love : Tokyo Hearts

A fascinating exploration of life in modern-day Japan, TOKYO HEARTS is a poignant love story that will catapult you directly onto the fashionable streets of this nation’s capital and into the hearts of Takashi and Haruka. Takashi is a young and popular university student who has fallen in love with his stylish and sophisticated friend Haruka. She is sweet and kind and adores shopping for high-end Japanese and Western brands. Every week, they meet up in the heart of Tokyo, enjoying each other’s company, and for Takashi, life is perfect. But the path to true love is never easy. When Takashi discovers that Haruka is seeing her wealthy ex-boyfriend from Kyoto, his life begins to turn upside down. This coming of age story traces the lives of Takashi and Haruka and their friends as they deal with young love and the ups and downs of growing up in Tokyo – truly one of the most stylish, energetic and exhilarating cities in the world.


Cartea asta pare absolut minunata din doua privinte. In primul rand, povestea este absolut minunata. Adica m-am indragostit de ea numai din acest scurt rezumat. Si al doilea motiv, sunt absolut indragostita de Japonia. Iubesc tara asta, iubesc traditia lor, iubesc tot ce este legat de Japonia. Chiar si limba pe care mi-o dorescde ani de zile sa o invat. Mi-am exasperat colegii din generala cu dragostea mea nemarginita pentru aceasta tara si mai nou, si colegii de liceu stiu.

Pe locuri, fiti gata si...START!

Astazi am fost mai aeriana decat de obicei si am uitat ce zi e. Da, e 1 aprilie. Da, e luni. Da, e prima zi din saptamana altfel. Dar mai presus de toate, este prima zi a concursului de fidelitate.
Asa ca, cine doreste sa participe (nu am avut decat vreo 2-3 persoane care m-au anuntat ca se inscriu) pot sa inceapa din acest moment.
Deciii, START!

Anime #2

Credeati ca am uitat de aceasta rubrica? 
...
Da...am uitat. De fapt nu am uitat, ci mai degraba in ultimele luni nu prea m-am mai uitat la animeuri, ci la seriale :)
Oricum, astazi va voi prezenta animeul Kamisama Hajimemashita - stiu, nici eu nu pot pronunta chestia aia, desi vreau sa invat japoneza. 


Nanami Momozono is alone and homeless after her dad skips town to evade his gambling debts and the debt collectors kick her out of her apartment. So when a man she's just saved from a dog offers her his home, she jumps at the opportunity. But it turns out that his place is a shrine, and Nanami has unwittingly taken over his job as a local deity!

Nanami has all kinda of new responsibilities she doesn't understand, dangers she's unaware of, and a cranky ex-familiar who's... actually pretty hot. What's a new-fledged godling to do?

La fel ca primul anime pe care vi l-am prezentat, acesta are 13 episoade. Insa exista o diferenta (sau mai multe itre cele doua). In timp ce primul anime are la baza intreaga relatie a celor doua personaje, acesta are foarte mutla comedie. In primul este vorba de o dragoste reciproca, in timp ce in acesta este vorba de o dragoste venita din partea unei singure persoane, care abia mai tarziu va avea raspuns.

Chiar a fost amuzant, am ras cu lacrimi la toate intamplarile personajelor, si mai ales la relatia dintre Nanami, o tanara liceana, si Tomoe, un demon vulpe si cel de care se indragosteste (tipul cu urechi din imagine). In timp ce Nanami este draguta cu el (nu mereu) el o face de ras, intr-un mod amuzant pentru spectatori.

Va mai anunt ca si acesta anime are manga.

Va las mai jos si cateva AMV-uri (Anime Music Video) cu acest anime.









Music Time!

Eu personal sunt o mare fana a trupei Nickelback. Adica tipii astia au melodii absolut superbe, care contin si mesaje usor de inteles. Va voi da doua melodii care chiar sunt geniale. GE-NI-A-LE!


Cred ca pe aceasta am mai dat-o, dar tot o iubesc, hehe.
