The Hunger Games

Recently I got a early Easter gift - two books from The Hunger Games trilogy: The Hunger Games and Catching Fire. I read both of them in just few days and I can't wait to read the last one. I really love first two books, I've heard many great things about them and now I can say that all the compliments are justified. I love the story and I love the characters, the books are very interesting and I enjoyed reading it.  At the very beginning I was wondering how will everything go down because I was 100% spoiler free but it didn't take long to get completely into it. After I was done with The Hunger Games I waited few days and then started  reading Catching Fire. But when I had it in my hands I couldn't put the book down. I must admit that when I finished the first book I was little bit skeptical  if the second book is necessary  because I have a feeling that everything has to have sequels these days. So I had no idea what will second book be about and how will the story go on, after only few pages of Catching Fire I could easily see how wrong I was. I think that maybe I like Catching Fire even more then The Hunger Games. Mostly because the plot was very interesting, unpredictable and you never knew who is the person to trust. Also I liked new characters. 

Now I can't wait to read Mockingjay, hopefully they will translate it to Croatian very soon. I could probably find English version somewhere online but I'm not into e-books at all. I would rather wait for real thing, I just hope that I won't have to wait for long.

Right after I finished reading The Hunger Games I went to see the movie. All I can say after seeing the movie is that I'm really disappointed. I know, I know... the book is always better but I didn't even had high expectation and still... Everything was so much better in my mind. They changed so many things and left out many great parts from the book. The good thing about the movie were actors and I liked how they shown the Districts and Capitol...everything else not so much. If you have seen the movie tell me what you think about it? I really want to know how you feel about it :)

Did you read the books, if you did tell my your opinion and i f you thinking about reading the books go for it!

Today I'm in a mood for another little bit of everything post... 

Yesterday I got a early Easter gift: first two books from The Hunger Games trilogy. I can't wait to start reading it, hopefully I will like it and it will be as good as everyone say it is.Third book is not translated to Croatian yet, I hope it will be soon.

The book I'm reading right now is Winter Garden by  Kristin Hannah, right now I'm somewhere in the middle and I really love it. The story is about a two sisters Meredith and Nina who live totally different lifes but after a while and some tragic events they have common goal: find out the truth about their mother's life. Their mother Anya is a cold woman and both Nina and Meredith had to learn to live with it but then suddenly they realize that maybe there is a lot more about their mother that they don't know... 

Now when I'm talking about books I can mention another one: Lucy In The Sky by Paige Toon. This is a chick lit and very relaxing book. It is about a girl Lucy who is torn between two choices: Sidney or London...Nathan or James...I wasn't amazed by this book but I definitely like it.

New Essence range came into my local drugstore and all bought was eyeshadow brush. There were few more products that caught my attention but maybe some other time. Beside the eyeshadow brush I have one nail polish from new range, but I will show it to you in a few days. Here is a closer look at the brush. Looks really good, I tried today just a little bit and it for now it is great.

My boyfriend came from Germany the other day and look what he brought me!!! Let's just say that he knows me very well...

Yeey for P2 nail polishes and for my first Misslyn polish! Can't wait to try them all! I don't know where to start, if you have any suggestions just let me know!

At the end of this post I have little announcement: I decided that in next month I will not buy nail polishes. The reason why I'm telling you about it is to make it "official" because now I really have to go with it. I got too many nail polishes lately and it is really time to calm down little bit. I already had one month of absence, it was December 2011 and it was successful. Do you have to control yourself when it comes to nail polishes, makeup, clothes...? 

Written by Cecelia Ahern

You have probably heard for at least one Cecelia Ahern book, maybe without even knowing. Some of you have probably read one, or two Ahern's books. I know you have heard for this movie:

P.S. I love you

Beautiful story about love, death and how to deal with loss. Bestseller P.S. I  love you is first Cecelia Ahern's book and very popular movie with the same name is based on it. Few years ago I saw the movie and I loved it so much that I decided that I have to get the book and read it. The book is different then a movie, the book is more emotional and more realistic. The movie is amazing too but they changed more then few things from the book. I don't mind the changes because I look at it as two separate things. It seams to me that for the move scriptwriters took only a basic idea from the book and did something which will make us sad but also entertainment us. A lot of my friends dislike one or another. Usually those who read the book first don't like the movie and vice versa. I love them both and I recommend it to anyone. 

"P.S. I love you" wasn't the first Cecelia Ahern's book I read.  After seeing the movie I was talking to my friend about it and she told me about the book called "Where rainbows end" also written by Ahern. The concept of the book is little bit different, the book contains letters, emails, sms, chats between characters. Different than usual but very interesting. The plot is easy going and fun, it fallows main characters Rosie and Alex since the were kids until the grow old. Great story about life, love and friendship. 

My favorite book from four that I read is "If you could see my now". All I can say is that this is wonderful, wonderful book, beautiful magical story...believe me when I tell you that after this you will at least for a moment believe that imaginary friends do exist!

Last but now least is the "Thanks for the memories". Another amazing story and great idea from Cecelia Ahern. Two people, two apart lives that come across...plus little bit of magic!

Have you read some of these books? What do you think about them?
