THE MIDNIGHT STAR \\ Blog Tour and Guest Post with Marie Lu!


Hey guys! Becca here with a super special guest post from Marie Lu for THE MIDNIGHT STAR Blog Tour! I'm so excited that Reading Teen had the chance to pry a tiny bit into Marie's mind and find out some of her favorite/best superpowers ever, so without further blah blah from me, here's Marie...


Top 5 Best/Favorite Superpowers Ever

5. Flying. I’ve had enough awesome flying dreams to know I’d like to do this, but only if I also don’t get my skin ripped off by all the crazy wind.

4. Metalbending. Magneto—and Toph—are pretty formidable. I would like to be formidable too, inside my custom metal armor.

3. Billionaire-ing. Let’s face it—money seems to buy all the superpowers you could ever desire. Iron suit that lets you fly? Check. Utility belt that does everything? Check. Batmobile? Check. Plus, you get to have a pretty nice house, too.

2. Traveling through space in the blink of eye. (Safely, of course.) If I could hop from galaxy to galaxy in a safe little pod, and see the universe—and whatever other life forms might be out there . . . . GIMME.

1. Controlling time. Imagine if you could just pause time whenever you needed to finish a bunch of stuff, or if you needed to sleep in, or just wanted to goof off for a few hours without actually losing any time, or if you wanted to go back in time to witness the dinosaurs or Stonehenge in its heyday. AMAZING. (And the one superpower that billionaire-ing can’t buy!)

Series: The Young Elites #3

Hardcover: 416 pages

The thrilling finale to the New York Times bestselling Young Elites series from "hit factory" Marie Lu.

There was once a time when darkness shrouded the world, and the darkness had a queen. Adelina Amouteru is done suffering. She's turned her back in those days who have betrayed her and achieved the ultimate revenge: victory. Her reign as the White Wolf has been a triumphant one, but with each conquest her cruelty only grows. The darkness within her has begun to spiral out of control, threatening to destroy all that she's achieved.

Adelina's forced to revisit old wounds when a new danger appears, putting not only Adelina at risk, but every Elite and the very world they live in. In order to save herself and preserve her empire, Adelina and her Roses must join the Daggers on a perilous quest- though this uneasy alliance may prove to be the real danger.

Bestselling author Marie Lu concludes Adelina's story with this haunting and hypnotizing final installment to the Young Elites series.

Finally, My Thoughts on Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

  Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins Audio  So, I was going through my old posts, looking for something to post today, and came across this.  I guess I never posted it, because I was just so angry and disappointed.  Plus, I think I had talked so much about it, that I was sick of talking about it.  And also, I feel like there were so many things that bothered me that I couldn't get it all down.  But, I thought it might be fun to post this, and see if anyone is interested in it.  So, here are my bitter and resentful thoughts on Mockingjay! :P 8-30-2010 *spoilers galore* After reading Mockingjay all day on Tuesday, I left Wednesday morning to go on vacation for my anniversary.  All I could think about was Mockingjay.  You might think that's a good sign, like it was so well done that I couldn't forget about it.  But, for me, it wasn't.  I was so disappointed in this book.  Honestly, if I hadn't loved the first two books so much, I pr...
