The Taking (The Taking, #1)
Title: The Taking
Author: Kimberly Derting
Publisher: Harper Teen
Genre: Science Fiction, Dystopia
Release date: April 29th 2014

Summary: A flash of white light . . . and then . . . nothing. 

When sixteen-year-old Kyra Agnew wakes up behind a Dumpster at the Gas ’n’ Sip, she has no memory of how she got there. With a terrible headache and a major case of déjà vu, she heads home only to discover that five years have passed . . . yet she hasn’t aged a day. 

Everything else about Kyra’s old life is different. Her parents are divorced, her boyfriend, Austin, is in college and dating her best friend, and her dad has changed from an uptight neat-freak to a drunken conspiracy theorist who blames her five-year disappearance on little green men. 

Confused and lost, Kyra isn’t sure how to move forward unless she uncovers the truth. With Austin gone, she turns to Tyler, Austin’s annoying kid brother, who is now seventeen and who she has a sudden undeniable attraction to. As Tyler and Kyra retrace her steps from the fateful night of her disappearance, they discover strange phenomena that no one can explain, and they begin to wonder if Kyra’s father is not as crazy as he seems. There are others like her who have been taken . . . and returned. Kyra races to find an explanation and reclaim the life she once had, but what if the life she wants back is not her own?

In the End (In the After, #2)Title: In The End
Author: Demitria Lunetta
Publisher: 
Harper Teen
Genre: Science Fiction, Apocalyptic
Release date: June 24th 2014

Summary: The thrilling conclusion to In the After, the survival story of Amy and Baby, set in a near future where Earth has been overrun by vicious, predatory creatures. 

It’s been three months since Amy escaped New Hope, and she’s been surviving on her own, like she did in the After. Until one day, her former fellow Guardian’s voice rings out in her earpiece. And in a desperate tone, Kay utters the four words Amy had hoped she would never hear: Dr. Reynolds has Baby.

Now it’s a race against time, for Baby is in imminent danger, her life threatened by the malevolent doctor who had helped start the end of the world. In order to save Baby, Amy must make her way to Fort Black, a prison-turned-survivor-colony, where she will need to find Ken, Kay’s brother. He alone holds the key to Baby’s survival.

One small slip-up on this quest could spark a downward spiral that would not only cost Baby and Amy their lives, but threaten the very survival of the people in the After.

I'm highly excited for both In The End & The Taking. I'm espically excited for In The End. If you haven't read the first book In The After, I highly suggest it. Demitria Lunetta puts a spin on your typical dystopia story on survival and the twist will sure get you wanting to read the second book like I do!

16179216Title: Dear Killer
Author: Katherine Ewell
Publisher: 
Katherine Tegen Books
Genre: Mystery Thriller
Release date: 
April 1st 2014 
Summary: 

Rule One—Nothing is right, nothing is wrong.

Rule Two—Be careful.
Rule Three—Fight using your legs whenever possible, because they’re the strongest part of your body. Your arms are the weakest.
Rule Four—Hit to kill. The first blow should be the last, if at all possible.
Rule Five—The letters are the law.

Kit takes her role as London’s notorious “Perfect Killer” seriously. The letters and cash that come to her via a secret mailbox are not a game; choosing who to kill is not an impulse decision. Every letter she receives begins with “Dear Killer,” and every time Kit murders, she leaves a letter with the dead body. Her moral nihilism and thus her murders are a way of life—the only way of life she has ever known.


But when a letter appears in the mailbox that will have the power to topple Kit’s convictions as perfectly as she commits her murders, she must make a decision: follow the only rules she has ever known, or challenge Rule One, and go from there.


Katherine Ewell’s Dear Killer is a sinister psychological thriller that explores the thin line between good and evil, and the messiness of that inevitable moment when life contradicts everything you believe.

My First Post

Here I go... 

Yes I took the leap! Did I stick the landing? Am I officially a blogger now?!

I should introduce myself. My name is Thao, I'm 19, and currently going to a university to major in International Affairs. Paper Bunny is my first official blog. I will be treating this as my baby. I will take care of it and post on it as often as possible.

Lets get something clear, I have no idea what I'm doing. Are there unspoken blogging rules?  If there are any I should be aware of can you lovies inform me of such things.

Ironically the past few days there's been many posts about how to be a proper blogger and I've already broken one important rule, which is, don't over think it. But how could I not. I can be a bit of a drama queen when it comes straining to be perfect. I just have high standards for how things are presented. In this case my blog is a presentation of me. And let me tell you, trying to figuring  out what you would be if you were a blog is a really weird thought process.

I first dipped my toe into the idea of having a 'blog' when I started a tumblr, that was easy right? Post pictures, post words, sometimes you have that profound fleeting thought you know is too deep and unappreciated on Facebook. I stuck with it for three months until I got myself wrapped up in the blogging world. Reading MANY blogs everyday and envying multiple YA novel blogs. Now I'm here, after a week of fiddling around with blogger I am ready to post.

I am completely in love with the idea of being a blogger & I hope you enjoy reading my future posts
