Between The Pages (2)

Hey Chroniclers! Welcome to another Saturday, the weekend is going great and it's almost time for me to go back to the US. In like two weeks. >.> Anywho, it's time for another edition of Between The Pages, hosted by yours truly every Saturday! Between The Pages is a meme where I pit two shows/movies/books that revolve around the same idea. Your job as Chroniclers is to vote for your favorite down below so that we can settle, once and for all, which is the better one! The post will consist of an image to represent the contenders, along with a synopsis to let you guys know what they're about. Let us begin!


Battle Of The Fallen Angels!

Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick
vs
Fallen by Lauren Kate

Hush, Hush

For Nora Grey, romance was not part of the plan. She's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how much her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch came along.

With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Nora is drawn to him against her better judgment. 

But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure who to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is, and to know more about her than her closest friends. She can't decide whether she should fall into his arms or run and hide. And when she tries to seeks some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel.

For Nora is right in the middle of an ancient battle between the immortal and those that have fallen - and, when it comes to choosing sides, the wrong choice will cost her life.

Fallen

There's something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori.

Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price's attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah, Georgia. He's the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move.

Even though Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce-and goes out of his way to make that very clear-she can't let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret . . . even if it kills her.

Both synopsis sound a bit similar, especially towards the end. But, I've only read Hush, Hush so I can't exactly say which one I prefer. So it's your job to decide which one is better! Vote for your favorite down below and let's see who wins!

A Book Lovers Holiday Gift Guide [Part 2]


The second to last category is for Kids. Kids need to read books too so let's show you some epic books. 

   

Now these kids books are all freaking amazing! The Forest of Silence is book one in the Deltora Quest and it's a great way to get kids to read more. Instead of just reading a book and then going on with whatever, they have 12+ books that they can keep reading and get into the motion of being a reader. Each book is close to 200 pages with big text so it's easy. Even as an adult I still enjoy remembering the story and thinking about their quest. Percy Jackson is another kids book that is able to be enjoyed by any age and it has a movie coming out! The Spiderwick Chronicles is another short series with illustrations that kids can dive into and enjoy.

The last category, so that I don't spam you guys with books, has to be for teens, also called YA.

     


Hush, Hush is the first book in a paranormal romance series about fallen angels. The Awakening is the first book in a trilogy about teens who have some sort of powers. It's also part of the first trilogy in a series of other trilogies. Crank is a deep novel written in poetry form, free-verse, about a girl who struggles with the drug. Looking For Alaska is one of the best contemporary novels out there about a guy who finds something a girl he's never seen before. 

So if these books aren't good enough then I have no idea what is. Or maybe they're very picky, but I'm sure they'll enjoy at least one of these books! Leave your comments down below with what books you also recommend to readers out there.

I take up more places on the internet! =O
