Hi Guys! Erm.... I'm not completely sure what the reaction to this will be but okay... I'm gonna do a beginning line challenge. Ok? So do a #poem, story or anything of your choice, but it MUST start with this sentence: "The misty raindrops twinkled on the window like stars in a midsummer's night sky." Just tag me in the comments and I will read every single one of them! (if and when my timetable allows it!) Rhian :-)

Book Review Title: A Monster Calls Author: Siobhan Dowd/ Patrick Ness Rating: 10/10 Ages: 10+ (theme may not be suitable for younger audiences, or anyone who has suffered similar experiences) Starting off, A Monster Calls is originally written by Siobhan Dowd, although her tragic death from cancer prevented her from finishing it. Patrick Ness was requested to take over. The book follows the #life of Connor, a boy about 12 years old, whose mother is seriously ill with cancer. Connor has very vivid nightmares about a giant monster, who visits him in his dreams and demands the 'truth' from him. The book follows Connor through his emotions at this time and what he has to deal with on a daily basis. This book is by far one of the most amazing books I have ever read in my #life. It's emotional, humorous in some places, and so beautifully written I was reaching for the tissues by the end. I would thoroughly recommend this book to anyone. The book has an opening from Patrick Ness himself, which ends with the statement, "Here's the torch me and Siobhan held together. Now go. Run with it. Make trouble." In my opinion, this is exactly what he managed to do, and pulled it off brilliantly. I can follow the emotion and feelings if the main character, as I have a family member who had cancer. This book handles the issue well, and doesn't try to sugar coat it. Definitely worth full marks!

Hmmmmm Does anyone know how many people are actually on Opuss at the moment? As in, how many people have an Opuss account.

Eeeeeek! I just went to see American Idiot the musical as a birthday present from my sis. My actual birthday isn't until Monday but today was the last day it was running. Oh my holy Jesus of suburbia. It was AMAZING. Well worth the money!!

... I'm sorry for leaving you all. GCSE's are very time consuming. Will try and come back, may post descriptions soon. :-) until then, adios!
