Gifts I Want This Christmas

This Christmas I'm super excited to be getting a lot of things that are from an anime that I love called Fairy Tail. Usually I never know what I'm going to get so I'm not as excited as I am this year. I'm getting a scarf that looks like the main character's, a necklace with the anime logo, and a sweater with the logo on it as well. I am absolutely in love with this anime and its characters so I'm really happy to be getting a scarf that looks exactly the same as Natsu's.

My Quote


I really liked and related to this quote because I don't know what I want to do with my life yet. I don't know which road I'm going to take yet but what I do know is that I want to keep all my options open and make sure I have a choice. I think the quote is right, if you don't know where your going then you can't go to the wrong place; you just have to swim with the current instead of against it.

Wildwood Dancing and Enchanted

When I finished reading wild wood dancing I made a connection with another book I had read before that was similar because both books had a lot to do with a frog that was actually a significant character in the book. In both books the main characters find a frog that can speak, in Wildwood Dancing Jena- the second oldest of five sisters finds a small cold frog as a girl and they become best friends. In the novel Enchanted, Sunday the youngest of seven sisters finds a frog named grumble while walking in the woods.

They are lots of differences between the characters but a big simularity is in both stories the girls have a frog as a companion and they eventually fall in love with the frog. In the novel Wildwood Dancing, when Jena is a little girl finds a frog half-frozen by a pond close to her home; she takes care of him and he becomes her best friend. In the book Enchanted, Sunday(as a teen) befriends a frog while walking in an enchanted forest. In both books the frog is actually a cursed boy/man. I think lots of authors use the particularly famous fairytail of the princess and the frog in their works because it adds a nice romantic ending; although some say the tale has been used so many times it's become a bit cleche.

I'll Give You My Opinion

I'll give you the sun was probably one of the best books I've read, ever. The characters had gone through lots of emotions throughout the book, and it gave a great example of how much a person can change over a long course of time. In the beginning of the story Noah is the weird, lonely, artistic twin and Jude is the sporty, cool, popular twin. The couldn't be more different, but as they meet new people and life-changing events happen they make their own choices they change themselves and totally put things upside down. A lot of good things happen, a lot of bad things happen an in the end everyone is connected in a way.

One of my favorite parts of the story is at the end when Noah and Jude realize how much they need and love each other, and they would never be complete without the other. Sometimes when you try to protect someone out of love by lying or keeping something from them, it's best if you just let it all out rather than keep it all inside until everything comes crashing down. The novel I'll Give You The Sun teaches a lot of great lessons, to tell the truth was probably one the most important, and in the end it all comes out fine.
