The Light of All that Falls

by James Islington

Choice is meaningless without consequences, and a privilege we do not deserve if we will not face them.

Now thissssss is how you DO time travel!!

What the heck, James, that was amazing!

So obviously 10/10 I loved this book and the ending to the Licanius Trilogy, so much so that while I was reading that last 40 pages of this book and waiting for my pizza to cook, I let my pizza burn instead of putting it down for even a moment! I was shook at the ending, heck I was shook in the middle, James really had fun with the time travel and shape shifting aspect of these characters powers and I am here for it .

I loved these characters the entire story, I loved the plot, who intricate everything was, the amazing world building that Islington did here was amazing! This is just a great example of epic fantasy to me.

He took the ending-of-the-world-as-we-know-it trope and gave is a fresh spin, I don't want to give too much away here, so please read them.

Ender's Game vs. Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow

Ender's Game and Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Orson Scott Card and Gabrielle Zevin Welcome to the human race. Nobody controls his own life. The best you can do is choose to fill the roles given you by good people, by people who love you. On the surface level, Enders Game and Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow have nothing in common. In fact, the only reason I even thought about these two books being comparable was because I read them one after another, and both had an impact on me, but I wasn't sure what is was. Enders Game is a science fiction novel written in 1985, and is about one boy, Ender, being the only hope for the human race to defeat a war against a bee-like alien species. The training for this was was done through strategy games and fake battles, and training began at 6 years old for Ender. Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow is realistic fiction and about two people coming together and creating a game that turns into a successful business but also

What If's

What If's By Ashley The Science Fiction and Fantasy genre's of literature can be hard to describe. They can take place anywhere, in space, under water, virtual realities, or nowhere at all, in some made up place like Middle Earth in Lord of the Rings. One author, Veronica Roth, described it as the genre of "What If's". What if these certain worldly limitations vanished, or what if humanity discovered this new technology, what if something or everything was different, what would it do to humanity. Authors make us these scenarios and let it play out, focusing in on one character living in that "What If", and playing out how they would respond. Thats what makes this genre so special, there are no rules and authors play gods. For me, the difference between Science Fiction and Fantasy is that in Science Fiction, those "What If's" come from a new discovery, something that someone discovered and explored and it changed the world as we know it.

A Catcher in the Rye

A Catcher in the Rye. By J.D Salinger I loved this book the first time I read it, but I remember being more confused than anything. I didn't understand the complex emotions Holden was going through, and I felt lost most of the time, but I was in high school at the time, and didn't have much real world experience. This time though, it was hard to read but was impossible to put down. Thats the beauty of re-reading books after time has past, it always hit you a little different. But Holden went through a lot of things I can relate to. The way he thinks, the way he was alone, the way he kept asking the wrong people for company and attention. Maybe thats not something I want to admit to though, after looking into more of the history and effect this book has had on pop culture, apparently its been the backbone or justification or murders who probably felt the world was full of "phonies" just like Holden did. It's beeb banned and unbanned throughout its life because
