Ash
I recently read a book called Ash. To be honest, I only read it because I searched "YA lesbian fantasy" on Google and it was pretty much the only result I got. I was hoping it would be really good. I did like it, but it wasn't what I hoped it might be. It's a retelling of Cinderella. Ash (Cinderella) falls in love with the king's huntress instead of the prince. While I liked the book, I would have loved it if it was longer.
In other news, I have started season 3 of Merlin. I am also freaking out because school starting again soon and I don't want it to. I will post much less frequently when September comes.
I've noticed that it's been almost a year since I started this blog. That is quite incredible.

Alignment
I found another new personality typing system. This one is primarily meant for typing fictional characters. There are nine types: Lawful Good, Neutral Good, Chaotic Good, Lawful Neutral, True Neutral, Chaotic Neutral, Lawful Evil, Neutral Evil, Chaotic Evil. You can read about alignment here.
Since Alignment has nine types like Enneagram, I thought I could connect them. Of course, alignment is not the same kind of system as enneagram, this is just for fun. Real people are obviously not good or evil. It's just a joke.
Type 1: Lawful Good
Type 2: Neutral Good
Type 3: Neutral Evil
Type 4: Chaotic Neutral
Type 5: True Neutral
Type 6: Lawful Neutral
Type 7: Chaotic Evil
Type 8: Lawful Evil
Type 9: Chaotic Good
I am making some edits for a few different fandoms with one character for each alignment type. I will post them soon.

The Four Temperaments
This post is not about Myers Briggs. To be clear, this post does not refer to the four temperaments in Myers Briggs (NF, NT, SJ and SP). This post is about a thing that I have known about for some time but have not really looked in to. The four temperaments are Sanguine, Melancholic, Phlegmatic and Choleric. Click here to read about them. No, really, you should click the link. I won't bother explaining any of it myself.
I assumed I was melancholic, but I took an internet quiz and it said I was choleric. Of course, internet quizzes are not always right. Neither melancholic nor choleric fit me, but they each include aspects of my personality. I read that most people are a mixture of two of the four temperaments, and that cleared it up.
I honestly do not like the four temperaments very much. They are way too simple. Only four types? But I decided that I may as well try to link it to Myers Briggs because, hey, why not. This was my thought process:
First: The obvious. How do the four temperaments correlate with the four temperaments?
NF: Obviously not Choleric or Phlegmatic. That leaves Melancholic and Sanguine. Both are pretty NF-ish.
NT: Uh... Could be Choleric. Could be Melancholic (kind of). Could be Phlegmatic. Not likely to be Sanguine, though.
SP: Not Melancholic. Probably not choleric. Maybe Phlegmatic? Possibly Sanguine?
SJ: Could be any of them, really...
Okay, this isn't working very well. The temperaments do seem to directly correlate with introvert/extrovert. Sanguine and Choleric are extroverted and Melancholic and Phlegmatic are introverted. It also kind of seems as if Melancholic and Choleric are judgers and Phlegmatic and Sanguine are percievers. That would mean that:
Melancholic: INFJ, INTJ, ISFJ, ISTJ
Choleric: ENFJ, ENTJ, ESFJ, ESTJ
Phlegmatic: INFP, INTP, ISFP, ISTP
Sanguine: ENFP, ENTP, ESFP, ESTP
But, wait. Shouldn't ENFJ and ESFJ be Sanguine? They aren't Choleric at all. And do INTJ and ISTJ fit Melancholic best? This correlation isn't perfect. At all.
Well, let's keep the introvert/extrovert thing but instead of judging/perceiving, let's use thinking/feeling. Melancholic and Sanguine correlate well with F and Choleric and Phlegmatic correlate well with T.
Melancholic: INFJ, ISFJ, INFP, ISFP
Choleric: ENTJ, ESTJ, ENTP, ESTP
Phlegmatic: INTP, ISTP, INTJ, ISTJ
Sanguine: ENFP, ESFP, ENFJ, ESFJ
No. That doesn't work at all. INTJ and ISTJ as Phlegmatic? Impossible.
Okay, okay. How about forgetting the extrovert/introvert thing and using judging/perceiving and thinking/feeling.
Melancholic: INFJ, ISFJ, ENFJ, ESFJ
Choleric: ENTJ, INTJ, ESTJ, ISTJ
Phlegmatic: INTP, ENTP, ISTP, ESTP
Sanguine: ENFP, INFP, ESFP, ISFP
Not at all. ENFJ and ESFJ can't possibly be Melancholic. INFP and ISFP can't possibly be Sanguine.
What about Intuition/Sensing? Can I use that? Maybe, But I don't see any direct correlation.
I decided at this point that the four temperaments did not correlate directly with Myers Briggs. But of course I still have to find the closest thing to correlation. What if I use I/E, F/T and P/J? That means that:
Melancholic: IxFJ
Choleric: ExTJ
Phlegmatic: IxTP
Sanguine: ExFP
Any types that do not fit directly into one of the four temperaments will be divided between two. Here is a table:

The Burning Sky
I just finished a book called The Burning Sky by Sherry Thomas. It was written in a unique way and I found it very gripping. It seems to be set on Earth in the 1800's, but in some kind of parallel universe with magic and mythological creatures. It is the first book in the Elemental trilogy, and unfortunately for me it is the only one that c=has come out. The next book comes out in September.
While I'm on that topic, here is a list of books I'm looking forward to reading in the next year:
While I'm on that topic, here is a list of books I'm looking forward to reading in the next year:
- The Perilous Sea (sequel to The Burning Sky)

- Blue Lily, Lily Blue (Book 3 in the Raven Cycle)
- Fairest (Prequel to The Lunar Chronicles)
- Winter (Book 4 in the Lunar Chronicles)
- Lady Midnight (Book 1 in The Dark Artifices)
- The Revenge of Seven (Book 5 in the Lorien Legacies)

Book to Movie Adaptations
Recently I have watched three book to movie adaptations. My general rule for movie made from books is that the book is always better than the movie. So far I have not found an exception to this rule. The three adaptations I watched most recently are City of Bones, Eragon and Vampire Academy.
City of Bones was okay. I've heard many people say that it was terrible, but I honestly think it could have been a lot worse.
Eragon was quite bad. At first it seemed like it might be okay but then... it fell so far. I was pretty much shouting at it throughout the entire second half. Seriously. They could have made it so much better.
Vampire Academy was a pretty good adaptation. Though the book is honestly not one of my favourites, I think it was pretty well adapted, even though the plot was changed a bit.
Here's a list of some adaptations I've seen and a rating out of five for how well I think it was adapted. (NOTE: The rating has nothing to do with how much I liked the movie. It indicates how well I think the movie was adapted from the book.)
The Fellowship of the Ring: 5
The Two Towers: 5
The Return of the King: 5
An Unexpected Journey: 5
The Desolation of Smaug: 5
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone: 4

The Lightning Thief:: 1
The Sea of Monsters: 1
The Hunger Games:5
Catching Fire: 5
The Book Thief: 5
Divergent: 5
The Perks of Being a Wallflower: 5
City of Bones: 3

Eragon: 1
Ender's Game: 3
Hugo: 5
The Fault in Our Stars: 5

Shadow and Bone and Pottermore
I am reading a trilogy called Shadow and Bone. It has magic and stuff and it's pretty good. I've read the first two books so far. While I do like them, I feel like they're too short (I have that problem with books a lot). Annoyingly, my favourite character is the villain. I hate it when that happens because then I can be sure they will die.
On a completely unrelated note, Pottermore has just been updated! (At least for Ravenclaws, I'm not sure if the other houses can see it yet). This new update finished The Goblet of Fire and has some of my favourite moments so far including The Maze, Merpeople and the Golden Thread.
