The Cloak Society: Villains Rising by Jeramey Kraatz

Here is the summary for the second installment of the Cloak Society by Jeramey Kraatz (just in case you missed the title of the post):



The Cloak Society has finally taken down their greatest enemies: The Rangers of Justice leaving half the Betas and the Junior Rangers to band together and try to device a plan to defeat the Cloak Society. Working together is easier said than done when the Junior Rangers aren't sure that the Betas days as super villains are done.

Small summary, I know, but if you read the first book I'm pretty sure that's all the information you need before you rush from the computer straight to the library or store to grab it. I am sure that some of you have already read it, but I got a sample from my Kindle when it first came out gave it a try and was for some reason disinterested. So now, just yesterday, I got it and I devoured it. I'm pretty sure it was the fastest book I have ever finished, since I just closed it about an hour ago. Anyway, here are some of the things I liked about it. So first of all I thought it was really weird that there were clones of Alex when there weren't any in the book (sorry that I might have just crushed your anticipation to read it). I liked seeing how the team worked together and I loved seeing how Alex's past fights with what he wants for his future. The villain inside of him and the hero he wants to become. There's an addition to the team that Alex was wary of  and the character made me on edge of my seat the whole book.  Alex was sure that he was a spy or something so, of course, I figured he was a spy. I really wanted to see Alex run into his parents or  make him to have to confront his life in the Cloak Society, but Jeramey Kraatz didn't do that. He mostly focused on how the team was trying to actually be a team and work together. Near the end though there was something that sort of quenched my desire for Alex's need to confront his past, though it doesn't exactly turn out the way I thought it would. Plus, like the first , there is a humungous cliff hanger! I despise cliff hangars. It was cool seeing Alex's power develop farther and a few new powers in action too. Jeramey Kraatz has an amazing ability of making a book feel like a comic or a Marvel movie what with his awesome, clear descriptions of powers,  how they work, and the super power battles. There was absolutely nothing bad in the book, just battles and a few bruises. I recommend this book for ages twelve and up. Jeramey Kraatz's last book of The Cloak Society comes out in September and he just released the cover of the third book. All you have to do is go to JerameyKraatz.com and go to blog and you'll see it. I love his covers, so if you've got no reason for picking his book up all you gotta do is give it a go because of its awesome cover. Again, goes to show I judge books by their covers. So check it out and I hope you like as much as I did.

How to Revise like a Pantser ft. Big Hero 6 Gifs

Happy Wednesday everyone! I hope you've had a great week so far and that you have a great Easter weekend ahead! We plan on going to my grandparent's on Friday to celebrate Easter with family and spending the night there so that'll be a fun time. :) Alright, so I contemplated doing an Easter-y post on here but I wasn't even sure what that would look like... So instead, I thought I'd do something fun and happy in honor of the celebration of Easter on Sunday. Without further ado, here is your Big Hero 6 gif filled revising process from a real life pantser: The end of your first draft is in sight! You type like crazy, stay up past your normal bedtime until it is finished. When you type The End, the satisfaction that you actually did this thing sets in. Guys, it is the sweetest feeling ever. Knowing you worked so hard to complete this draft and came out on the other side. Unscathed? Perhaps not. But triumphant? Definitely! That first draft is a total disast...

Best Resources for Writers

Happy Wednesday once more everyone! So recently I've been doing a lot of craft-learning and have discovered some pretty awesome resources that have been so helpful to me. I'm also contemplating trying my hand at a How To guide for writers. I've already written a How to Write a Serial book and it just needs to be touched up. I think I might make it one of my freebies for my newsletter. So then not only do you get a short story but also a how to guide cuz I realized a lot of the newsletters I sign up for come with how to guides or writerly resources. But anyways, here are some of my favorite books/podcasts/blogs that have been so, so helpful to me over the past few months: Craft Books: Go Teen Writers: Edit Your Novel by Stephanie Morril and Jill Williamson: This one has a little bit of everything in it and is perfect for beginners. If you've just started plotting your novel, are in the middle of writing it or have begun the editing process this is a must have!  ...
