    I haven't read a single one of these. I do recommend The Giver series, if you are looking for recommendations.

      Thanks Deb! I actually read the first book in that series as part of the school program, and I'm unsure of whether or not I want to continue.

    I haven't read any of these either, but I don't read much YA.

    I haven't read any of these books personally but I have heard of most of them. I have looked at Borrowed Souls and wondered if it would be my kind of read. I'm still thinking about it! I probably need to read a few more reviews before I decide! Thanks for visiting my TTT this week! It's always great so have a new visitor!

    Highly recommend Sherlock Holmes and The Raven Cycle! Holmes stories are what I turn to when I need a comforting read, and The Raven Cycle sucked me in. In fact, I'm itching to reread them.

      I recently started watching the TV show elementary, which was what reminded me that my mom had all the Sherlock Holmes books in her bookshelf!

    I'd like to read Maas at some point, and more of Claudia Gray's books too. I've read a couple now but not that series.

    Love that cover of Becoming. Very nice.

    ToG and The Raven Cycle are both stupendous series. Loved them! Heist Society is on my TBR, and I have heard great things about Gray's series. Great list!

    Throne of Glass made my list and The Raven Cycle SHOULD have made it (I own one of the books), but it was getting so long that I couldn't manage to list anymore!! I really enjoyed Red Queen!

      Surprisingly, I only had 11 series in my TBR list... I grew tired of adding series and dystopia books to my TBR a while ago, and I just completely stopped!

    The Raven Cycle and Sherlock Holmes are a couple of my favorites! I've read the first book in the Firebird series and Throne of Glass, but I need to continue! :)

    Thanks for visiting my blog earlier!

    Heist Society is so much fun. I'd love to see more YA books like it. Happy reading!

    I read a Throne of Glass 2 years ago and really enjoyed it! Still got the rest of the series to read though. Red Queen is one I've been intrigued by but have never been interested enough to actually research it to the point where I'd want to read it. I've heard amazing things about The Raven Boys, one day, one day! Soul Charmer was undetected until I discovered it through someone else's TTT a week or so ago. It has such a fascinating concept! I hope you love it. :)

      Thanks so much Vena Isabella. I've actually heard that the 3rd book is the best in the Throne of Glass series- so you should probably go ahead and read the rest of the series!

    I've actually read a few of these! I personally couldn't get through A Thousand Pieces of You, but the cover really is stunning. The Throne of Glass series, although it has many problematic elements, gets better with every book. I've also read Red Queen which I thought was okay. But by far my favourite on this list is The Raven Cycle. I adore those books to pieces and they only get better from the first one. I hope you enjoy your reading!

    I really liked the Raven Cycle, Throne of Glass and Heist Society books, so I hope you do too. Red Queen is decent but nothing particularly original.

      Oh that's sad to hear (about Red Queen)... maybe I'll finish a few of the other series before getting to that one.

    YAY for our shared pick of Red Queen! Glad to know there's someone else looking to read those. :) I'd like to read Ally's 'Heist' series too. They look and sound super cute. Sarah TOG books are on my perpetual TBR too - I fear I'll "never" get to reading those because their length intimidates me. ;)

    Thanks for visiting Finding Wonderland.

      I'm actually convincing myself to read them because of their length- I'm participating in the Big Book Challenge this year!

    I forgot to put it on my list, but I still need to read Throne of Glass too. I haven't finished the Red Queen series yet, but what I've read so far is a pretty exciting read. I hope you enjoy it when you get to it. :)

The Hero, by Rabindranath Tagore

 The narrative poem" The Hero" was written by Indian poet Rabindranath Tagore. Set in a young boy's imaginations this narrative has all the necessary elements and is rich in imagery. The characters, plot, setting, theme, climax and idea are all very clearly outlined.  The setting of the poem falls within the boy's imagination. It is described to have 'spiky grass' and a 'narrow broken path'. It is also mentioned that the country is 'strange and dangerous'. The rurality of the setting is further accentuated when Tagore talks of the 'cattle' and 'wide fields'.

I cannot remember my mother by Rabindranath Tagore

 The poem has been titled " I cannot remember my mother". It attracted me for some reason, for I thought that surely, a poem couldn't be completely empty. There had to be some form of nostalgia, or memory in a poem about no remembrance.  I realized after reading it, that I was right. In fact, the poem's title can be considered an oxymoron. However, the extent to which this poem is nostalgic, the amount of tiny details in this poem, wow. But I don't suppose Tagore was a Literature Nobel Laureate for nothing. This poem has sensitized its audience to the poet's colossal loss, though the poet ,it seems,has made no effort to do so. There is nothing superfluous about his writing, and the poem seems like a true expression of his love for his mother. It talks about how his mother managed to leave her presence on everything before she passed away, and how those little memories of his,form an incomplete memory of his mother.

One by Shawnee Kellie

  The poem "One" by Shawnee Kellie is a very interesting and thought-provoking piece of writing. The poem spreads the message that it is not only a large group of people that can make a change, but one idea, one thought, one human that can help make the world a better place.
