Hey everyone, I’ve got an amazing idea: how about I share a brief update each dat or week about the valuable insights I’ve gained? It’ll be an awesome way to keep you all in the loop and share my knowledge with you. Let’s make this a regular thing! šš½šš½
So today I’ve read a book called Change Your Thinking, Change Your Life by Dr. Joseph Murphy. I’m going to be reviewing the book soon, so keep an eye out for that post.
I’m currently reading an awesome series called “The Arc of A Scythe” by Neal Shusterman. Ahem! Got to get into my ‘reviewer voice.’ The first book, “Scythe,” introduces us to two remarkable teenagers, Rowan and Citra, who are apprentices to the esteemed Scythe Faraday. Set in a future where humanity has conquered even death itself, this book takes us on a thought-provoking journey. It’s intriguing to witness how these characters navigate a world without the concept of murder, where people are free from hunger, poverty, and the fear of mortality.
One particularly amusing moment occurs when Scythe Curie, whose Patron Historic is Marie Curie, explains the meaning of murder to Citra. Initially finding it funny because thatās what a flock of crows is called, Citra quickly realizes the significance of the term. It’s fascinating to observe these characters, so disconnected from the idea that people used to die when they were in their 80s or beyond (they live for a hundred years or so), as they grapple with the responsibility of ending lives as scythes. In this dystopian society, scythes are entrusted with the solemn duty of “gleaning” individuals, effectively functioning as arbiters of death. While most scythes follow compassionate principles, there are a few corrupt ones, led by Scythe Goddard, who wreak havoc with their mass killings.
As the plot unfolds, unexpected events transpire after Scythe Faraday’s untimely “gleaning.” Rowan finds himself under the mentorship of Scythe Goddard, while Citra becomes the apprentice of Scythe Curie, the granddame of death. And then a significant change leads up to Citra and Rowan vying for a chance to- oops! I’ve said too much!
If you’re as intrigued as I am, be sure to keep an eye out for my upcoming review of this fantastic book. It’s a compelling narrative that will keep you on the edge of your seat, making you ponder the depths of life, death, and the human spirit. So, immerse yourself in the gripping world of “The Arc of A Scythe” and prepare to be enthralled.
If you’re still with me, my brother is incredibly excited to watch the new Paw Patrol movie! After watching the trailer, I must say, it looks absolutely captivating. I simply cannot contain my excitement to see how it unfolds on the big screen! On top of that, there’s an accompanying music video with a catchy song titled “Down like that!” It has quickly become my new favorite tune, adding even more joy to the entire experience. Well, it’s getting late. Have a fabulous day or night (wherever you are)! Bye!
