Team Puck/ Team Ash

So I finally read The Iron King by Julie Kagawa that it seems like EVERYONE is talking about and now and I’ve noticed that like Twilight before it there are Team Puck and Team Ash bloggers. Not quite sure why since we all know how Meghan feels about Ash but I have to admit that Puck is an extremely interesting character.

I don’t think I can actually pick a side in this argument even if I do adore Puck (no, I don’t exactly see him as Seth Green though it’s closer than anything else):

Cause I am Switzerland
The neutral starts here
I'm gray matter
Between a field of snow
And a river of sun
I'm content to be in the middle of
My two loves

Lyrics slightly adapted from Switzerland by the Bella Cullen Project

So do you have a favorite or are you just Team Grim? Oh and have you checked out this great fan video?

Here's to 3 Years!

385 reviews. That’s quite a lot huh? A little over a year! It’s actually taken me 3 years to reach that many… yep! Today’s The Movieholic and Bibliophile’s 3 year blogiversary! I still can’t believe I’ve been at this three whole years now. Blogging (sometimes even reading) and I have had our ups and downs but I seem to always come back.

I did an extensive post last year for my second blogiversary talking about some of my first reviews and commenters. I think I’ll talk a bit about some of my favorite reviews this year. One of the first was The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson which is surprising because I didn’t actually like the book all that much! Oh and my review for Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr, Wondrous Strange by Lesley Livingston, Inkheart by Cornelia Funk (I still haven’t managed to get around to finishing that story…), and the ones I did that are Wonderland related like Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass by Lewis Carroll, and The Looking Glass Wars & Seeing Redd by Frank Beddor.

Thank you again loyal readers for standing by me for so long and I love my new readers too. Here’s to many more years reviewing and blogging!

Recently I’ve been thinking of doing some re-reading of Stephen King’s books (The Stand is my favorite!) and I’d love everyone’s input about which one they’d like to see me review. Oh, and I occasionally re-read books in a series of which I have already reviewed later ones, should I go back and review the earlier ones?

Musing Monday- Favorite Genres

This week’s musing asks:

Name your top 2-3 favorite genres (the ones you read most from).

The top 3 genres I read are paranormal romance, urban fantasy, and YA. I love authors like Charlaine Harris, Laurell K. Hamilton, Kim Harrison, Rachel Caine, Kelley Armstrong, etc. If it has faeries or vampires in it, you can pretty much put me down as a fan!

Happy Father's Day!

To all good dad's everywhere:

THE IRON KING BY JULIE KAGAWA

"You really are Puck?" I said finally. The Puck? Like in the stories?
Robbie/ Puck gave a little bow. "The one and only."
