I see myself like Zoe. I am a little miss bookworm but i love the Greek mythology that's why I read this. I also love archaeology like her. It's funny that Hermes is a girl in this book. And I sometimes see myself as an outcast. I mean I have friends, yeah, but I sometimes can't relate to them. I'm more like Zoe, the loner type, the I'd-rather-read-than-go-talk-about-boys type, I don't wear make ups and I rarely care about what I wear.

This is so entertaining. I imagine myself finishing this book in two days but I found myself finishing it for just a day. I can't wait read the part 2 of it. I wish I could time travel too, I'll do everything to time travel.

Hindi ko alam pero sobrang kinikilig ako habang nagbabasa nito. Oo, minsan korni pero hindi ko maikakaila na feel na feel ko ‘yung pagbabasa sa mga kakornihan ng librong ito. Nakabasa na ako ng mga similar story line, pero madalang pa din ‘yung mga kwentong lalaki ang mahiyain. Na-enjoy ko ‘yung pagkamahiyain ni Colton sa babae na halos hindi na nagsasalita at laging nakaiwas pero ang laki ng katawan niya, ay ewan. Ang tagal ko ring hindi kinikilig ng sobra sa mga binabasa ko, and this one is worth it.

This book is great! It has both life and love lessons.
I like how Jamal's character changes just because of the things that happened to him. I hate the part where he coveted his brother's wife, I mean, that's too much and I don't think he regretted doing it. He portrays most people I know, people who wants to live life to the fullest without commitments and with much money. Life isn't like that. Life isn't a game like he thinks it is.

Alicia is a strong person and weak at the same time. She's strong because she didn't blame the world for what happened to her and she's weak because she killed herself at the end, she should have just faced her problems, you know?

I hate Tammy. She should just be contented with her husband. I mean, Richie is the perfect husband, he loves her and all. Sure, he may not be good in bed but duh? it's not just all about sex. I understand she's just a person and can be tempted but hello? he's Jamal, his husband's brother! I wanna call her a slut!

The ending left me a question, did Jamal killed himself in the end or was he killed by the cops???

Eto na ata ang pinakaworst na nabasa ko na gawa ni Bob Ong. Parang nagsayang lang ako ng time ko. Parang nag-try lang syang manakot pero wala din. Di sya nakakatakot, konti lang, ung part lang na sinabi ni Mama Susan ung mga sikreto ni Galo at nung umupo si Mama Susan nung patay na siya. Paulit-ulit lang ung mga sinasabi niya. Parang mas may kwenta pa ung sarili kong journal dito. Umayos lang ung kwento nung mahaba na ung mga nakasulat. Nakikita ko ung sarili ko sa kanya kasi tamad din ako, pero pag nakikita mo pala ung sarili mo sa iba, nakakainis din pala. Sana di na maulit ung ganitong libro, sana ito na ung pinakaboring na mababasa ko.

This book was amazing. How will I describe this feeling? Let's start with Cricket. I love everything about Cricket. He is the perfect description of my dream guy. Sweet, tall, intelligent and he's not the type of guy who screams ‘heartbreaker' and he's definitely the boy-next-door type. He's not afraid of telling Lola what he feels. And I love a whole lot of other things about him.

Oh, and Lola, I love that she's a costume girl. I bet it's fun to do your own clothes and dress up and everything. But I'm definitely not like her, I'm too lazy to design my own clothes let alone sew and make them for 6 months.

I really like the book. Thea is so brave, and she's stupid too. She's stupid because she let herself be pregnant. That's why teenagers shouldn't have sex until they're in the right age, even if you say they use the pill or condom, they SHOULDN'T! But I'm proud of her, I admire her braveness, I'm glad she didn't let her baby be adopted and she's really a good mother. And Will, I sort of hate and like his character, I'm in between, I like his character because he didn't ran away when Thea's pregnant, which most guy teenagers usually do. I'm glad he accepted the baby and the situation properly. And I hate him when he considered adoption. I mean, I get him, he just want a good life for his baby and they're just teenagers and everything but it's just not right. And I LOVE that Thea didn't do the abortion! It's just not right! I mean, it's practically like killing a baby!!

Lessons from this:
1. Think before acting on something.
2. Always do the right thing, and by the right thing, I mean the RIGHT one and NOT the one you think is right.

I'm torn between hating this book and loving it at the same time. Why? I hate it because of Kiera. She reminds me of Bella of Twilight Saga. She can't choose what she wants but she knows what she wants. I hate that she's so unfair, that she's indecisive, unfair and stubborn. She's so unfair to both of them, she can't have both, she has to choose one and i hate that she doesn't want to lose either one of them, that's not life you know, you always have to choose. She says she doesn't want to hurt both of them but doesn't she know what she's already doing? God I hate her!! And she is so wrong when she started an affair with Kellan. If you want a person and realize you love him and can't live without him, well you have to make a move a be with him and don't think twice!

okay, so enough of that, I love this book too because I felt all their emotions, the passion, the love and the intensity of every action. I was lost into the book the whole time. I felt myself bracing for what might happen next. I almost felt like I was in the story. I usually don't read this kind of thing, the one with love triangle thing. I hate third party's but this is an exemption. I truly love it!

I love this book! It's one of my dreams. I've always dreamed of being a daughter of a hollywood star. Hehehe! Well, except for the sister part, I don't want a sister like Brooke. But I get where Brooke is coming from, its hard to have a Mom who dumped you. Brooke's life is what I really wish I have, the Barbie life.

I love how they became close in the end. They're the total opposite of me and my sister.

The lesson I've learned from this book is, even if you hate your sister so much, no matter how much you wanted her to vanish from your life forever, at the end of the day, you'll still thank God you have a sister.

I guess I'll just tell you the things I like in this book. Let's start with the fact that I like the part where she could travel back in time through the Domani, that's super cool. And then when Gabriel traveled back too to find her even if he knows it's too risky is so sweet. I can say she is so brave to be willing to lose her powers just to save her family. That is so brave, if I say so. :)

I do not know why I'm still reading this but I am, so just bear with me.
I know this will lead me nowhere near happy endings, but I still think it's good.
Okay, so the hedges and the house look crazy. Since this book is all about misfortunes and bad luck, I assumed that Dr. Montgomery will be worst than Count Olaf but I was wrong. He was really cool and interesting. Dr. Montgomery or as the Boudelaire children calls him, Uncle Monty's physical description reminds me of Peter Pettigrew or Padfoot of the Harry Potter series.
Anyway, the Reptile Room was really interesting, I would love to visit one. But before I enter, I have to make sure the cages are safely locked. Being friends with a friendly Viper like The Incredibly Deadly Viper sounds fun and I was really relieved that his name isn't literal.
It was really clever of Count Olaf to disguise himself as Stephano; I admire his persistence, really.
If the children didn't told Count Olaf about the ticket being torn by Uncle Monty, he wouldn't kill the latter.
I couldn't believe Mr. Poe didn't believe them again. Seriously, safety is way above politeness when it comes to this. I am really frustrated with him!
Though it wasn't a happy ending, I still could say that they're still fortunate enough to be safe at the end of everything. Count Olaf may still be out there, plotting another evil plan to get his hands on the children's fortune but for the time being, they're still together and safe.

I don't particularly like books with no happy endings, and I don't really know what hit me and made me read this book.
I just the kids were just struck by bad luck and fate was being cruel and playing with them. From rich to poor, that's how their life went. Their parents' death is a mystery to me because there was really no clarification on how the fire started. The kids never cried when they heard that their parents died. I mean, if it was me, I'd cry a river, but I guess they're just tough. I find Mr. Poe as a generous man for taking the kids with him in his house.
When they went to see Count Olaf and mistaken the Judge Strauss' house as his, I thought, they must not be really that unfortunate. But when they saw Count Olaf, I gave up hoping that things would be better for them. The description of Count Olaf was really disturbing, what an unusual person to have only one eyebrow! I can't even live in his filthy house, I'd much rather risk my life on the streets,
I knew from the start that Count Olaf just agreed on taking the kids for money. That's what makes this world go round anyway, money, money and money. It was really clever of Count Olaf to plan and arrange his so-called wedding with Violet to gain their inheritance. And I was really impressed when Violet used her left arm to sign and made the document illegal.
The kids may be really unfortunate, but somehow things turned out well for them in the end. At the end of the day, they're still lucky because they're all together and they have an inheritance waiting for them in 4 years' time.

Corinne has the perfect life I wanted. At the age of 16, she gets everything she wants and I mean EVERYTHING. She's living the life I've always dreamed of having. When this recession thing happened, she needs to live in Texas which made her life fall apart. She needs to live with her grandparents and go to a public school. She thinks her life became miserable. And if that occurred to me, I would be glad to live there. I mean, who wouldn't want to live with your grandparents? At least they're not totally poor. She's still lucky because she still gets to go to school. Anyway, so much for that.

I really love this book because a learned a lot from here. I learned that no matter what circumstances or problems that will come our way, we should still be thankful and glad on the things we still have even if its something we're not used to.

I've read this book just this week. I soo love the story because it's all about vampires and it's so romantic.

I love the story but then I am shocked that it doesn't have a happy ending. The Hero and the Heroine aren't together at the last part.

I am hoping that Meg Cabot will do a part 2 of the book. :))

First of all, I think Devi is stupid trying to mess with past like that. Yeah, she's right, it's not really good to look in the past cause you'll never focus on present.She's stupid for even thinking of trying to erase Bryan in her life, I mean it's obvious that Bryan loves her and he just wanted to try life without her but it doesn't mean he doesn't want her anymore. I wonder what happened to the fountain and the phone?
If I was given the chance to talk to my past self, yeah, maybe I will also do what Devi did. But I won't change a lot in the past. Somehow, I'm happy with everything,.
