Kaz (fantasystmuch) | 23 comments To Read! or Not to Read? That is a silly question, don't you think? OK, I've been thinking on what to do with the member's corner for quite a while now and I had an epiphany. I could put anything!! I know how smart is that? -___- anyway can someone tell how you put pictures in here? because I don't know how. -__-

Did that work? Is there a photo in this post? I am not sure since all I see now are a bunch of HTMLs. In case there is no picture, I'd like to share what I 'm currently reading, drum roll please! With All My Soul! the 7th book of the soul screamers series, by Rachel Vincent. You see people, I really like fantasy books with supernatural creature, ya know? And this book is quite different from the typical fairies , vampires and wolves but don't get me wrong, I love those too, it's just nice to read something different and bean sidhes are different, although I guess they're a kind of faerie as well?

Jon (jon17) | 372 comments It worked well :)
You can also use preview to see it before you submit. You should also link to the book with the 'add book/author' link

message 7: by Kaz (new)

Kaz (fantasystmuch) | 23 comments When people turn to fictional characters, it’s often because they want an escape. The stories of these people shelter us from the storm of our daily lives; they save us, if only for a little while. But when we really give in, become invested, let ourselves be vulnerable, something changes. We begin to feel that we know them. It’s no longer just an escape, but part of us, something that makes us who we are.

These characters teach us that incredible adversity can be overcome. That people can love each other forever. That life can be an adventure. That magic can be real. And even if these miracles have never happened to us, we begin to go through life believing that, someday, they could."

Kaz (fantasystmuch) | 23 comments I want to read a lot of books.. -_- but I can only read as much without the characters starts to jumble, so since I've finished the Soul Screamers series and I really liked the ending if only it took 7 books to finish it up but it could have been 5, and the ending would still be the same. Now I'ma start reading The Gathering are you guys familiar with it? I've read the summoning and really liked that series ^_^ What books are you reading right now? :D

Kaz (fantasystmuch) | 23 comments I'm done reading the Darkness Rising series by Kelly Armstrong, and I must say I really liked it but not as much as the Darkest Powers trilogy. I kinda liked the Necromancer bit of the Summoning, i thought that was cool. I was utterly weirded out by Maya who is a skin-walker, kinda like a warewolf only in her case she transforms into a big black cat and I was like, WHUUUUUUUUUUUT? but I did made some research in the internet and apparently skniwalkers are legit Navajo myths and some people are afraid of talking about them thinking they might be attacked.

A Skin Walker, not what I pictured whilst reading.
THIS IS WHAT I IMAGINED!

Kudos to Kelly Armstrong there ;) also I've been wondering about their Canadian jokes, since I am Asian and proud of it, is Canada really, like a kind nation? I've been hearing that from tv shows a s well, they make fun of how super kind canadians are. :)
One of the characters I liked was Daniel, :3 keeping in mind that I've always liked the "other guy" in a love triangle, you know the guy with the pure intentions and always being cast in the friend zones. I have no feelings for Rafe, I did not care for him a bit, but I liked his sister though :) In the third book, the characters from the first series made an appearance, it was really cool!!! I entered my fan girl psyche when Chloe and Derek made their presence known ^_______^
