Book Releases!

 

So, remember the 39 Clues? That series finished. I thought there was going to be 39 Clues and 1 clue in each book. Wrong. There are 10 books--more than 1 clue in each book. Whatever, it was good. So I heard that the new series would be coming out soon, I think in April. I'm SO excited! There are some other books that go along with the 39 Clues books that I got. They're called: The Black Books of Secrets and the Agent Handbook. I haven't started either because I'd like to finish some of my OTHER books. 

There's another book that's coming out fairly soon called The Throne of Fire which is the second book in the Kane Chronicles series. The first book was called The Red Pyramid which is about Egyptian mythology. The second book in the Heroes of Olympus series is coming out sometime this year--I think in October. It's called the Son of Neptune. I can't wait for both! They're written by the author of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series, Rick Riordan. Hopefully I'll finish all the books I need to finish by the time one of them come out!

Doctor Who

The TARDIS

Rory, the Doctor, and Amy

Amy Pond and the Doctor inside the TARDIS

OK, so recently I have discovered the amazing{and pleasantly nerdy} British TV show of Doctor Who. My friends know that I love British people{they're just awesome} and I've heard about it from people. SO, I decided to give it a try! It's AWESOME! Go watch it. I watched the whole 5th season because that was when the first season that the 11th Doctor came in. There's a new season this spring and I can't wait! I suggest before watching the new season to watch the 5th season to catch up. Let me explain:
Doctor Who is about the Doctor{the dude in the picture}and he travels in time in the TARDIS--or the Blue Police Box. I guess people used to use Police Boxes to call police. The TARDIS is a LOT bigger on the inside than on the outside. The Doctor and Amy are inside the TARDIS in that picture--see what I mean? A LOT bigger! Anyway, they travel in time to fix these "cracks in the universe" that involve aliens and machine-monsters and Roman soldiers.

My favorite "monster" so far is the Dalek. I don't know why but they're cool... except when they try to kill the Doctor and Amy. But the creepiest "monster" so far, to me, is the Weeping Angel. They're statues. If you look at them they don't move. If you don't look at them, they move. So, for example, I'm looking at one and I close my eyes for a second. When I open my eyes, the angels have moved into a different position. Scary, I know. For one of the Dalek episodes the Doctor and Amy back to WWII and see Winston Churchill and this scientist that has created the Daleks to help the UK win the war and it explodes the enemies' planes which is good. But then, they turn to the dark side. They start to attack the good side I guess and the Doctor. But the Doctor defeats them in the end. Yeah.

The last two episodes in the season are AWESOME. So there's this prison called the Pandorica and it holds all the monsters that the Doctor has defeated.I'll skip to the end. The Doctor gets in the Pandorica then gets out, and then puts Amy in the Pandorica to keep her safe for 2,000 years{this was during like, Roman time} and then Amy, Rory, younger Amy, and Doctor meet at the museum and the Doctor dies, sort of. Then Amy brings him back and she and Rory hop back in the TARDIS again. It might be better if you just watch the episodes yourselves. I'm not very good at explaining things as you can tell. But this song basically explains the last "Pandorica" episode:Doctor Who: Big Bang 2
This explains the whole of Doctor Who too: Doctor Who: Explanation

It's cool. See you latah!

Oh yeah and: Bowties and Fezes ARE cool.
