This week's topic is:
Are there any books, movies or music you are anticipating this year?
Yes there is! Here are some of my answers!!
BOOKS:
Splintered, by A.G. HOWARD.
Here's the summary I got from Goodreads:
This stunning debut captures the grotesque madness of a mystical under-land, as well as a girl’s pangs of first love and independence. Alyssa Gardner hears the whispers of bugs and flowers—precisely the affliction that landed her mother in a mental hospital years before. This family curse stretches back to her ancestor Alice Liddell, the real-life inspiration for Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland. Alyssa might be crazy, but she manages to keep it together. For now.
When her mother’s mental health takes a turn for the worse, Alyssa learns that what she thought was fiction is based in terrifying reality. The real Wonderland is a place far darker and more twisted than Lewis Carroll ever let on. There, Alyssa must pass a series of tests, including draining an ocean of Alice’s tears, waking the slumbering tea party, and subduing a vicious bandersnatch, to fix Alice’s mistakes and save her family. She must also decide whom to trust: Jeb, her gorgeous best friend and secret crush, or the sexy but suspicious Morpheus, her guide through Wonderland, who may have dark motives of his own.

This book looks really awesome! I am totally intrigued by the cover too, the first time I saw it I was like, I need to read this! It's also cool that her name is Alyssa, just like me! :)
MOVIES:
Oz the Great and Powerful, Catching Fire and Percy Jackson and the Sea of Monsters.
I'm anticipating all of these movies very much!! They all look so exciting and totally action-packed! I can't wait to see some of these movies in the theaters!
Music:
One Directions new album, Take Me Home.
This album isn't coming out, it already came out a little bit ago, but it is really new and I love almost all of their songs!
