My Favorite Golden Globes 2014 Moments

2014 golden globes

Have you seen the 2014 Golden Globes awards? Or rather the question is WHY HAVEN'T YOU SEEN THE GOLDEN GLOBES YET?

Everyone loves the Golden Globes, and we all kind of question why other awards shows can't be like the Golden Globes - because face it other awards shows (not naming any shows here!) are just lame. Or maybe the proper question is - why can't Tina Fey and Amy Poelher host EVERY awards show and why can't Jennifer Lawrence win every award in every awards show?

Ok, now that I'm reading that paragraph it all feels like an awards show tongue twister, with all the times I've used 'awards show' in a sentence.

Anyway, since I just adore the Golden Globes, I think it is apt to share my favorite moments of this wonderful, wonderful awards show! (There I said it again)

JENNIFER LAWRENCE!!!!


BOOK IN REVIEW: Cursed Hearts by Light and Lowell

beryl



Title: Cursed Hearts ( A Crossroads Novel) 
Author: Light and Lowell
PDF: 446 Pages 
Genre: YA, Romance, Paranormal
Rating: 3.5/5 

Received a free copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.

Cursed Hearts by Light and Lowell is like a magical love story with witches, werewolves, vampires and many more. For me, it's a good book to read if you just want to relax and get lost with what you are reading. 

Pros: 
The book was a very, very interesting read and takes you to a place that you would never want to leave. The characters weren't perfect and had problems that you could relate to. It isn't all about the love story and the couple's relationship development but also about family, loss, standing up for yourself, sexuality. As the book progresses, the writing steadily gets better. Also, there are a lot of twists and turns that would leave you hanging on to Light and Lowell's every word. I felt a sense of lost when the book ended because I didn't want it to end. I just wanted to keep reading and reading the same book over and over again. It's interesting, curious, fresh, and definitely not your cliché bella-edward-jacob love story. I love how Light and Lowell thought about the plot since it's really complex.

Title: Pigments of My Imagination
Author: Angela Kulig
Publisher: Green Envy Press
Publication Date: September 23, 2013
Epub: 826 pages
Source: RC
Rating: 3.5/5 stars

Pigments of My Imagination is about Lucia, an artist prodigy who is about to enter her new school at Bayside Academy. Yet even if others would be thrilled to be at one of the most prestigious and advanced art schools, Lucia is nothing but bothered, as she has always felt as if she knows people (déjàvu, she has always dismissed it), and it has become even worse when she arrives at her new school. Her mother would send her to psychologists and after each session, she would feel better, not knowing that her memories are being repressed. Yet, Lucia still has an empty feeling, as if she has to remember something but can't - until she meets Leo. And then we find out that Lucia and Leo are two lovers, part of the Soul Painters, a group of artists who have been reincarnated over and over again. And Lucia finds out that she has started a war several lifetimes ago, and it will never end until she does something about it. 

Pigments of my Imagination was definitely a fascinating read. I found Angela Kulig's writing so vivid and real. She was able to paint the setting quite so remarkably I could imagine the story play out in my head. The premise of POMI is very interesting and unique. For one, it's a reincarnation plot which has been done over and over again. But on the other hand, it uses art as the central key to the story. It is not just about fates, harpies and all sorts of magical creatures but it also talks about art and its beauty or curses. It's unlike any book I've ever read. At first I thought it to be a Mortal Instruments/Twilight crossover, but surprisingly it is actually very very different although some elements were similar. It didn't dwell much on the romance between Lucia or Leo, and the approach wasn't melodramatic with the story - though there were some melodramatic revelations.
