Now, by now a lot of you have probably seen the unboxing videos floating around on BookTube, blog posts from book bloggers or at least some of the hype around this book. You may recognize the name James Frey from quite a few things. A Million Little Pieces, My Friend Leonard, and as one of the 'master minds' (and I use that term LOOSELY) behind the pseudonym Pittacus Lore.
What you MAY not know he is also the head of Full Fathom Five, a book packaging company. Not there is anything wrong with that. Lauren Oliver has an amazing book packaging company called Paper Lantern Lit... it's James Frey himself.
He is also a known liar.
Not only did he lie about his story A Million Little Pieces, he ripped off the other part of the pseudonym for Pittacus Lore; Jobie Hughes when The Power of Six was still in drafts.
In better detail here at Snuggly Oranges blog, is all the reasons why I absolutely refuse to have anything to do with anymore of his books. The only reason I will maybe keep reading the Dorothy Must Die trilogy is because of Danielle Paige. I really like her writing style from what I have seen. I really hope she is able to venture off to another publisher that will appreciate her.

So, since my computer is up again...
I have been rather busy in the past few weeks! I finished The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkins, the novella Life before Legend by Marie Lu (novella for The Legend Trilogy) and just a bunch of random stuff!
I have decided to take part in the 2014 Goodreads Reading Challange for 50 books! I am hoping to actually surpass it. I only said 50, due to the impossibility of knowing what may or may not happen this year. :)
---
My current readings are:
- Before I Fall by Lauren Oliver
- Legend by Marie Lu
- Grave Mercy by Robin LeFevers
- Marked by P.C. and Kristin Cast
- Divergent by Veronica Roth technically finishing...
- The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
- The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky
- Clockwork Angel by Cassandra Clare
I plan on finishing them ASAP, a lot of them are half way done or more, I just have to get to them.
Have you read any of these? Can you make me suggestions?
Anyways, I may start book tubing! So that is exciting. :D
Reisa over and out!
