The Maze of Bones (The 39 Clues; Book 1)

Yesterday night, I was in mood of reading a nice fantasy. I had other novel in Read-In-Progress tab, but I was in mood of something intriguing and; breath-taking. I found this one in my piles of book and just started the first page to take the hold of what the story is about? Is it worth reading? And before I slept, I had finished it.

It started by the death of Grace Cahill (A really graceful figure no doubt), with a strange will. Either take 1 million dollar or a mere clue; might lead to unlimited source of power. Most of the heirs was smart enough to take the million dollar fortune and be happy. But these two kids; Amy and Dan, planned to make their Granny (deceased) proud. So they burned 2 million dollars and took the clue. Along with six other competitive teams, they set on the quest to find the 39 clues. After that, events started unfolding with an unusual manner. Before they knew it, they had been attempted to killed three times, wandering in Paris, and knowing nothing about what to do next.

The story was full of suspense, even at the end you will be tempted to just turn the page and read the next one. I can't wait to buy the second books of the series.

If you love puzzles (like me), this is just the book for you. I highly recommend it!

Developing a character!

Developing good character is necessary to develop a good story. This exercise is a good place to start. The more developed the character is, the more fuller the story gets. Also keep in mind, everything you you find out about your character is important for you to know. Not the readers. What is important for them is only parts of him or her that came in the story.
Remember, it is start. The character will undoubtedly evolve, as the story evolves, and in the process the writer evolves to. Now it has been soo much evolvement. Lets get to the starting point. Developing a character :

Developing a good routine!

Developing it is the most important thing for a starter. I had tried to get some productivity without it and had immensely failed. From last December, its three months now. I have devoted myself and all of my time  to my writing career and I am still lost. This is the lesson I learned the hard way and now sharing with you all.
First of all, keep in mind that success doesn't come overnight. It is a long and dreadful process. With lots of speed-breaker on the way.

My recent horror movies marathon!

Hey guys!
 My cousin had visited me some time ago, she is a fan of horror movies. So whenever she visits our house we always watch as many of them as possible. This time I thought I should share them with you. The movies we watched were ; Insidious 1 and 2. See the guy in picture, he is from that movie. Other than that we watched The Conjurer, Let the Right One In and The Woman in Black.

Insidious was a really interesting and intriguing one right from the start. I consider myself not much of a scaredy-cat kind, but I also broke some screams during the movie. The thing that make this movie scary was the elements of surprise. The ghosts appeared when one least expected them. Not those classic hours of nothing but someone getting scared of its own shadow. At the 2nd part, the start had scared the hell out of me, but after some time it was more into the story than horrors. But that doesn't make it boring. It was awesome.
The Conjurer; want a piece of advice? Don't watch it. It is the most scary movie I have ever watched in my whole life and the worst part, it is based on reality. That makes a horror movie even more scary. I even started blabbering in the middle that we should stop the movie and do something else. My sad story, no one listened to me and no one let me get the hell out of there. I was forced to watch until the end. :(
Let the Right One In wasn't a scary movie, even though it falls in horror category. It was rather storical. A sad story of a girl vampire; a boy fell for her then find out she is a vampire not a girl. She has to kill people to fill her tummy, blahblahblah. It was kind of tragic rather than horror.
The Woman in Black was simply interesting. Didn't scared me much. I found it funny that the lead actor was Daniel Radcliffe. We even wondered why didn't he just valgalium velliossa'd the witch and blew her away? Jokes aside, it had a good story from the start until the climax, but I found the end disappointing. :(

The Testament by John Grisham! (My first attempt to write a review)

This writer knows how to keep you hooked in the story until the end. Creating an environment from the start and keep pacin it until the end.

The story was about a 11 billion dollar fortunes will of a self-made billionaire Troy Phelan. The thing that surprise one is that how can you put so much adventure into a lousy topic of a typical will fight?

The scary first line whenever one sit to write

I wonder if its because I am a newbie or it is a common symptom to every writer. Whenever I sit to write, the first line is always the scariest. Thinking something worth writing and making others read it. So my rule is, whenever one has a problem, one should always ask Mr.Google for advice. He always has solution to the problem :D  I did that too. I googled this issue.
Every link showed more or less same answer and that is :

My new year resolutions!

1. Read 100 books- I had recently opened my account in Goodreads.com and found this interesting challenge. How many books you wanna read in 2014. I started with 100 books! and since I am a bookworm, maybe, just maybe I got done with it. I really am willing to finish this challenge. Any recommendations are welcome. :)

2. Finishing my first novel- I have been planning this for quite some time now. This year I finally decided to stop researching, planning, outlining, blah,blah,blah  and start writing it. So I have started it and halfway through 1st chapter already.(Okay, I know its not something to brag about but atleast I started) I am planning to get it done this year, but don't know what life has planned for me :P But who knows, maybe I even got published next year. :D

3. Attain a habit for exercise- Its not that I have gotten really fat though, but I think exercise is good for both mental and physical health. So everyone should make some time from their busy routines and give it to themselves. Especially people like me, you have read my habits and future plans (just reading and writing). So you might guess how important it is for me :D

4. Learn cooking and baking- This is relatively new plan. But I think so far it is the most rational.

5. Got rich B) - This is my every year and all time resolution. But man! why is this goal so hard to achieve. :(
Well, thats it. P.S on a side note. I haven't done it before. This new year resolution thing. But this year I had heard and read so much about it, I got bumped up to give it a try. Lets see how it goes :)
You guys also share with me your resolutions in the comment box below, or share it with me in G+  :D
See ya!
