Finally got off my lazy bum and post on here. It's been absolute ages! haven't been reading until recently when I finished 'Me Before You' (wanted to see what the fuss is all about really). I like the book, but I don't love it. I like the sad ending funnily enough, but the realism makes the story memorable and outstanding from the rest. Anyone read Tana French? I love her books; no matter how boring a scene may be she makes it sound interesting. Love her. Reading 'Broken Harbour' now.

'A Little Life' is so heartbreakingly good ngl

I admit to kinda liking 'Divergent' because the story stupidly carried through. You're right; there's no proper plot, no characterisations (somehow the heroine is just cool and the badass, broody guy becomes the boyfriend... like wtf), no reasons why the things the way they are. It just is. Sometimes I think the books are so dumb- like dumb- with no sense of style of inspiration for the younger generation, and people wonder why the millennials prefer tablets and phones over a good book. Nowadays, if the kids do read it's either badly written erotica (aka '50 Shades') or badly written dystopian stories (aka 'Divergent'). Now I can't even complain about Harry Potter because it gives inspiration and originality (although the writing isn't good), elements that most books absolutely lack.

So true. I read 'Divergent' and wondered if there's such thing as originality or creativity anymore.

[SBS Drama 2016] The Legend of The Blue Sea Starting Jun Ji Hyun&Lee Min Ho
eggy replied to MzKittyKath's topic in Dramas
I hope it's another global success. I already find the characters kinda cheesy; Lee Min Ho's character is a conman... I'm guessing the mermaid is going to find out falling in love with someone who lies for a living may not bode well. -
[SBS Drama 2016] The Legend of The Blue Sea Starting Jun Ji Hyun&Lee Min Ho
eggy replied to MzKittyKath's topic in Dramas
the third teaser kinda reminds me of 'My Love from the Star' of how the romance began in the old times when KSH met the young ver of JJH in Joseon or sth. The love transcends time and space... does this drama play along the same plot line? -
Bless him, he looks so tired

OK I REALLY NEED TO CATCH UP NOW

If you are interested in BDSM, you must've read '50 Shades' please tell me it ain't so I'm not interested in reading these stories myself; I only like 'Consequences' because there's a conspiracy, a revenge spanning 2 generations, that makes the trilogy stands out from the rest. I was a bit cautious because the plot was similar to '50 Shades', but thank goodness I was proven wrong I've added the book on GR ! I'll take a look when I have time, thanks ~ and I sent a couple of recommendations to you on GR EDIT I can't believe you already bought 'Misconduct'

Aren't they all though I think Anthony has redeemable qualities in the last instalment, but I honestly couldn't find it in my heart to forgive him after the first book. He was so brutal and absolutely unforgiving. Actually, I don't know why this series works for me because I find Claire infuriating for deciding to stay with him despite the cruelty inflicted on her. Like, are you of sound mind gurll And nope, I haven't read anything beyond 'Behind His Eyes', which proved a little disappointing. As for genre, I'm mostly into psychological thrillers and historical fiction. I'm reading Krystal Wade's 'Asleep' right now, which is boring as heck. No matter how good a book is I'm sure it's not worth losing sleep over

[SBS Drama 2016] The Legend of The Blue Sea Starting Jun Ji Hyun&Lee Min Ho
eggy replied to MzKittyKath's topic in Dramas
what are you doing here, eh He looks similar to his character in 'City Hunter' -
I personally don't find the side stories for 'Consequences' that good... they're just repeating what I already read in her three books. What's more, I find reading through Claire's eyes more effective than through Anthony's (I still can't accept "Tony" lmao) because it's more realistic and definitely electrifying. I recommend 'Misconduct' by Penelope Douglas if you haven't read it it's not for me personally, but I think you'll like it
-
Lmaoo you're not alone I swear her 'Consequences' series really made an impact for many readers, moi included have you read the entire series? 'Truth' and 'Conviction'? I personally find 'Consequences' (the first instalment) the best compared to the sequels but hey, that's perhaps for you to find out You're right; I didn't find any books as good of the same genre after 'Consequences'.... I guess you can read her other books which belong to 'Tales from the Dark Side' or something. I tried reading her other stuff, but after having read 'Consequences', I feel like she's another Dan Brown: once reading a few of her books, you've pretty much read all her other novels. Gotta say though, I have re-read 'Consequences' ever since because it's just so goooood <3 It's impossible for me. I had to give up reading for a while for something else more pressing at the time because it took up much of my time and proved a great distraction if I were to juggle both at the same time. If you really love reading as I think you do, I would allocate a section of or use your entire spare time reading lel what I pretty much did during college was had a reading-spree in the holidays and had shut myself up like a hermit to go through a few stacks but I don't recommend anti-social behaviour to anybody

I saw Showbiz Korea giving an exclusive interview with Ji Chang Wook wae can't I find the link on YT...
-
I'm really glad the crew has returned to Korea; I heard so many rumours concerning the actors getting touched inappropriately, esp PBG and his cringing from fans' touch. Not sure if this was caused by hate towards the Filipinos, which I think not because what would the reason be?, but am relieved this is over. OMG I want to go so much

It's understandable that those two can't always be together in interviews; it just won't happen. Different agencies aside, the two have different schedules. KYJ is probably promoting her upcoming movie and PBG will do something else, like photoshoots and adverts maybe? How can fans expect the two to do an interview together when their popularity is soaring high- and climbing still: expect them to be heck-a-loo busy busy busy!

Apparently they're doing separate interviews on Oct 26 Fans on Fb are already speculating whether the relationship between PBG and KYJ is bad people, srsly get a grip

OMG "it's just bogum though".... !!!!! exactly, who else will I need when it's "just Bogum"?? I don't need the entire crew to shoot in Europe, Bo Gummy is surely enough for me. But where will he fly to? anybody know? And nope... I'm such a flop stan I barely have time right now to sit down and finish the drama but I will do- I promise!

Are those glasses what he wore in the Boombastic trailer Anyway, I'm shouting at the screen: please leave the crew alone. No matter how nice it is to see 'em enjoying themselves, I can't help but wish people would leave them be. Just- no. On another note, KYJ wears glasses? geeky girl

Good luck~ I have a feeling they'll be whisked off in a back entrance of the airport, having fully foreseen what the situation will be. You never know though!

Daymmm gurll He looks so ordinary in his clothes humble for an actor to dress like an ordinary person... so many use this opportunity to flash their latest gear and fashion, but not Bo Gummy <3 Darling, it''s because that 1% of tall, dark and handsome Korean guys are all in the celebrities, leaving out those who are not so good-looking scattered around. We're not going to feel anything for them when our tastes are spoiled rotten by that 1% This so much ^^^ I usually find guys sexier when they show their forehead instead of having bangs over it.
