1.   Harry Potter by J. K. Rowling: “We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are.”  I have so many favourite quotes from this series, it's hard to pick just one. You probably read the HP books, watched the movies, or did both. I could go on and on about the things that I like about this series, but the list is TOO long. What's there not to like expect Voldemort and Umbridge and the death eaters. You'll never regret reading the books, I can guarantee that. The books are a true, pure magical read. I seriously cannot fathom the fact that J. K. Rowling has been rejected many times by publishers. Good thing she did not give up. Personal Favourite Book of the Series: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban 2.   Anne of Green Gables by L. M. Montgomery: “Because when you are imagining, you might as well imagine something worth while.”  Anne Shirley is a lively girl

“Knowing the truth is not always a kindness.”  Cruel Beauty is the Perfect blend of Greek Mythology and a Beauty and the Beast retelling, along with modified hints of other fairy tales. Nyx Triskelion was betrothed since birth to the demons' prince due to a foolish bargain her father struck with him. All her life she had been trained to kill him and save her land, Arcadia forever from his curse. It's thought that nine hundred years the Gentle Lord or Ignefix had sundered Arcadia from the world, casting a false sky over it. Inside the spacious tower, Nyx met Shade, who was a shadow, and instantly liked him as he showed kindness towards her. However, after spending some time in Ignefix's company, Nyx found out that he was quite as helpless as all of them because he's bound to his masters, who were responsible for the sundering. I love that Nyx was not made to be a sweet, innocent girl, and she didn't succumb to her fate and get all overly-confident

"قضية اشتباه" رمى غطاء الظهر وجلس على سريره، تحسّست قدماه نعليه على البلاط البارد، الهاتف يرن بإصرار على بعد مسافة قصيرة. أشعل النور ورفع سماعة الهاتف. "معك الطبيب بنسون." قال الطبيب. كانت رياح نوفمبر تجلب أصوات الشتاء بينما كانت تعصف حول المنزل الأبيض الصغير. دخل الطبيب في ملابسه. ذهب إلى الطاولة وحدّق في ساعته، روحه تشكو من المهمة التي كانت تنتظره. الثانية تماماً. شكا عقله أيضاً التوقيت الفظيع وتساءل لماذا كان على الأطفال أن يولدوا في أوقات غير مناسبة كهذه. التقط حقيبتين صغيرتين: حقيبة الدواء القصيرة، كما كان يعرفها أهل البلدة، وحقيبة التوليد الطويلة، كانوا يطلقون عليها حقيبة الطفل. توقف الطبيب (بنسون) هنيهة ليشعل سيجارة، ثم وضع علبة السجائر في جيب معطفه. كانت الرياح كسكين جرّاح في وجهه عندما فتح الباب وانطلق، منحنياً لأسفل، حول الممر إلى المرآب. اشتغلت سيارته بصعوبة، وأسعلت ست مرات بينما قاد أسفل الممر ولكن بعدها بدأت تعمل بسلاسة عندما انخفض من شارع العشب وتوجه إلى الطريق السريع المهجور. كان لدى السيدة (أوت سورلي)، الذي كان الطبي

(JUST LOOK AT THIS COVER!) “He was a book, and he was holding his final pages, and he wanted to get to the end to find out how it went, and he didn't want it to be over.” This is the final instalment of The Raven Cycle , an amazing book series. Maggie Stiefvater has a unique writing style. Frankly, I have no idea how I feel about the ending right now. The book was quite hasty; there were times when I had to slow down my reading just to grasp everything that's happening and each revelation. And I want to know more...my something more from this series. It's good to see Adam reconciling with his past self and reorganising the past in his memories. Ronan Lynch matured and, somehow, developed as a character. I love the righteousness of Gansey, and his interactions with his family especially Helen. Blue Sargent, I think, is my favourite character in the series. And against my better judgement, I like the Grey Man. Well, that's that.

Children Literature is rich of wonderful tales, mostly with great morals and lessons. These tales are unique for their characters and writing style. Personally, I think they not only meant for kids as adults, like me, enjoy reading them from time to time. 1.        Charlie and the Chocolate factory by Roald Dahl:   “But there was one other thing that the grown-ups also knew, and it was this: that however small the chance might be of striking lucky, the chance is there. The chance had to be there.”  There's a chance for five kids to visit Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory which has been shut for ages. However, Charlie's family is poor, they cannot afford buying a chocolate bar. His grandpa tries to help him, but he gets a Golden Ticket after two futile attempts. He takes his grandpa for a companion, and together they have a grand time inside the wonder that the factory is. After many adventures and several tests from Willy Wonka, Charlie seems to be the eligible kid
