A screen to page movie magic for your Muggle heart ⚡

Hi guys :)
So Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them released a week ago and it was wonderful in every way explainable and not to forget the part where it almost had me crying because it was too perfect for my muggle heart to hold and,why not?
It can get pretty hard for a Potterhead ! because all that Harry Potter flashback and the wands and the magic and the music and the mention of Hogwarts alone had me wishing for a sequel!
If any of you guys haven't watched it  , GO WATCH IT ALREADY 


Leaving that aside , let me come to the point where i tell you "Why" this post . 
So a few days ago i received the long awaited (well i had to wait three days , its pretty fair to exaggerate because all that excitement makes you pretty impatient. Tell me i'm not the only one? :D ) package from Bloomsbury and almost lost my senses cause it was This "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them : Newt Scamander Movie Scrapbook" and need i say more ?

Rather, here's a little sneak-peek (its literally little because , get off that chair and get yourself a copy will you?)
 ENJOY 💜 :
NEWT 😍



 ...it also comes with some removable items.
Get youself a copy here  ⚡
i loved it so i'm rating it a million stars ♥

Whisper To Me- Nick Lake




Whisper To Me by Nick Lake
Published By: Bloomsbury
Publication Date : May 3, 2016
Genres :Thriller , Young Adult , Romance
Pages: 544
Format: Paperback
Source :Publisher (ARC)

Synopsis-

A remarkable story of strange beauty and self-discovery from Printz Award winner Nick Lake
"Here are some things i need to say to you :
1.I hear voices (well, just one voice really)
2. I miss you
3.I wish I could take back what i did to you
4.Forgive me
I should have left Oakwood the day I made that terrible discovery on the beach . The day the voice in my head first said those awful things to me . Before everything spun out of control.
But then I wouldn't have met you ..."
Cassie is writing a letter to the boy whose heart she broke. She’s trying to explain why. Why she pushed him away. Why her father got so angry when he saw them together. Why she disappears some nights. Why she won’t let herself remember what happened that long-ago night on the boardwalk. Why she fell apart so completely.
Desperate for his forgiveness, she’s telling the whole story of the summer she nearly lost herself. She’s hoping he’ll understand as well as she now does how love—love for your family, love for that person who makes your heart beat faster, and love for yourself—can save you after all.

My views -
Nick lake in his novel presents to us the story of Cassie . A girl who is suffering from traumatic Schizophernia . Although a love letter , the love theme doesn't overshadow the important theme Nick is dealing herewith , mental illness. I personally loved how he did it , how respectful he was throughout . And let me tell you , this isn't just a love letter , there is so much more , there's family , there's friendship , there's death , inner demons, murder mystery and most importantly ,healing .

"I was shining. Light was blazing from my every pore .My eyes were closed and the strip lights were turning the inside of my eyelids red,everything red. That's your colour you know, the one i see and feel when i think of you .Emotions are always associated with colours,aren't they? Green with envy.Well, when you are in my head you are always there with red : sunlight, warmth ,heat .
People are green with envy .Yellow with cowardice .I am red with you ."

Written in a conversational tone Cassie's voice just grips you in you know .. you keep reading because you want the answers for yourself and you keep doing that until you realise that you've actually finished reading and are in a puddle of tears .Perfect , isn't it?

"So i lost myself for a long time , and i did some terrible things to you and told you some terrible lies . But this is me now ,okay? This is my real voice , my one true voice ,which i am sending to you throught the ether , over the wires and the wireless, so that you can hear it"

What i loved most about Nick's writing was how vividly i could picture every episode as i read and his use of anecdotes are absoulutely stunning and appropriate , if you're a fan of anecdotes as much as i am , you're sure to enjoy it .
All in all , I recommend this to everyone looking for a coming age story of brilliant writing, everything stated above packed in one and happy endings , almost !

I am rating this book a 5 ☆'s because i love it so much !

November 9 - Colleen Hoover Book review



Pages : 320
Genre: New Adult
Publisher: Simon & Schuster
SOURCE : Purchased , Flipkart.

Beloved #1 New York Times bestselling author Colleen Hoover returns with an unforgettable love story between a writer and his unexpected muse.

SYNOPSIS :
Fallon meets Ben, an aspiring novelist, the day before her scheduled cross-country move. Their untimely attraction leads them to spend Fallon’s last day in L.A. together, and her eventful life becomes the creative inspiration Ben has always sought for his novel. Overtime and amidst the various relationships and tribulations of their own separate lives, they continue to meet on the same date every year. Until one day Fallon becomes unsure if Ben has been telling her the truth or fabricating a perfect reality for the sake of the ultimate plot twist.
Can Ben's relationship with Fallon and simultaneously his novel be considered a love story if it ends in heartbreak?

MY VIEWS :
Where do i even start?
Okay. First, i'm so ashamed of myself for not ever having read any CoHo books. Second, since i've finally read one she's definately going to be one of those authors who's books are always gonna be on my TBR shelf!
Moving on to the review finally ,
I had doubts when i read blurbs first, but let me tell you , the Book is so much more than the blurbs so don't keep second guessing if you've been meaning to get yourself a copy.Just go grab one (and thank me later :P).

"I press my head against his chest and even though I know he's kidding,part of me can't help but feel guilty genuinely sad about saying goodbye to him.I read reviews a lot for the audiobooks I narrate ,so I've seen the comments about how readers would do anything to make book boyfriends real .Here I am , convinced I'm standing in the arms of one ,and i'm about to walk away from him."

November 9th was Brilliant in EVERY way possible. Written in character POV's Ben and Fallon made me fall in love with them from the very beginning. They made me laugh , cry , swoon ,believe in love again ( not that i didn't but they made me believe more) . There was also a point where i got so frustrated that i wanted to rip the book into shreds and throw it away, but i'm glad i didn't because as much as it broke my heart it equally mend the hurting .

"You can’t leave yet. I’m not finished falling in love with you."

Its one of those books that just HAVE to read to be finally understanding the emotions i went through while i did and why i want you to read the book for yourself because reviews don't do half the justice as getting yourself a copy does. I won't be writing any further cause everyone should be reading it ,if you haven't aready. 
Gripping ,Real and so raw , it keeps you hooked untill the very end making their story yours and don't tell me i didn't warn you when you end up in tears ;)
BIG LOVE ❤

"When you find love, you take it. You grab it with both hands and you do everything in your power not to let it go. You can’t just walk away from it and expect it to linger until you’re ready for it."
