A Poem: The Sea

The Sea

The deep sea can sparkle like a gem,

It can be calm, with whirling eddies,

But the sea can also cause mayhem,

The sea is large, it will not empty.


The sea can be colorful,

Different colors or hues, 

The sea’s colors are wonderful,

Aqua, turquoise, indigo blues.


Full of different creatures,

Possibly ones we’ve never seen,

With a camera, the scenery, it captures,

Seafoam blue or seafoam green.



Stretching far across the horizon,

More farther than anyone dreams,

It’s then that I am enlightened,

That the world is bigger than it seems.

Review of 'The Inheritance Games' by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Image
Premise: Avery Grambs has a plan for a better future: survive high school, win a scholarship, and get out. But her fortunes change in an instant when billionaire Tobias Hawthorne dies and leaves Avery virtually his entire fortune. The catch? Avery has no idea why -- or even who Tobias Hawthorne is. To receive her inheritance, Avery must move into sprawling, secret passage-filled Hawthorne House, where every room bears the old man's touch -- and his love of puzzles, riddles, and codes. Unfortunately for Avery, Hawthorne House is also occupied by the family that Tobias Hawthorne just dispossessed. This includes the four Hawthorne grandsons: dangerous, magnetic, brilliant boys who grew up with every expectation that one day, they would inherit billions. Heir apparent Grayson Hawthorne is convinced that Avery must be a conwoman, and he's determined to take her down. His brother, Jameson, views her as their grandfather's last hurrah: a twisted riddle, a puzzle to be solved. Caug...

Premise: If you ain't scared, you ain't human. When Thomas wakes up in a lift, the only thing he can remember is his name. He's surrounded by strangers - boys whose memories are also gone. Nice to meet ya, shank. Welcome to the Glade. Outside the towering stone walls that surround the Glade is a limitless, ever-changing maze. It's the only way out - and no one's ever made it through alive. Everything is going to change. Then a girl arrives. The first girl ever. And the message she delivers is terrifying. Remember. Survive. Run. Review: You’ve probably heard of the Maze Runner, considering it’s a well known novel. In fact, it's up there with all the other popular series’.  [see: Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, the Hunger Games, Divergent, the Mortal Instruments, etc.]  (That is subjective, of course) This has been on my tbr list for a while, and I finally got the chance to read it. Here’s what I thought! Writing Quality/Style: On the positive side, Dashner’s writin...

Book Review of 'Scythe' by Neal Shusterman

Image
Premise: Thou shalt kill. A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery. Humanity has conquered all those things, and has even conquered death. Now scythes are the only ones who can end life—and they are commanded to do so, in order to keep the size of the population under control. Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe—a role that neither wants. These teens must master the “art” of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own. Original and Mystifying This book is a dystopian novel, taking place many years into the far future. The Internet is an all-powerful sentient being called the Thunderhead, who governs the people.

There is no more hunger. There is no more poverty. If someone gets injured or even killed, they get taken to a revival center, where...
