The games and how they are played can you survive them.

This blog post is going to be the start of a series that will look at two books both with the title the Game. Both have to do with contestants playing this game that they don't know about and having an audience watching them. I first of course will do the standard review of the two books then I will do a compare and contrast of the books seeing if they have anything in common and what are the major differences. I might do the discussion questions also on these books but haven't decided yet. 

The first The Game book I will write about was written by Shane Scollins and the second The Game book was written by Terry Schott.

Discussion Questions Answered for Pentimento by Cameron Jace.

Pentimento a dystopian Beauty and the Beast book. Here are my answers to the questions my opinion about the book and questions it makes you think about. 

1. Why does the Beast/Masters care about Earth and do they have any ulterior motives?
I think the beast is there on Earth to truly give humans a second or third chance to redeem themselves, but I do think maybe the beast have their own selfish reason why they are helping maybe their curiosity of the human race got the best of them.  

2. How can you tell the difference between reality and a dream and what is Pentimento?
This is a question we all try to answer to know if the life we are living in is real or fake. We need a balance to help us function properly. You can do all kinds of strange and weird things in dreams that are not possible in reality such as flying and you don't feel pain while dreaming. Also, dreams really don't have a beginning you wake up in the middle of it, and yes sometimes if you have lucid dreams you can control what happens in it. But it still not real because dreams are just 


3. Why did Iris have so much trouble seeing the real truth or did she?
I'm not too sure why Iris had a hard time realizing that the stars were not real and that the beast was not ugly but beautiful. She did not tell anyone that she did finally in fact realize she is the ugly one and the stars are not stars at all. She was so adamant at wanting to find the truth, but she already thought she knew the truth so it was hard for her to get rid of the preconceived notions she had in her mind.  

4. Why does the Beast choose not to communicate with the people of Earth, and why don't they just remove the false reality from their minds?
I'm not sure about this question I guess it like a doctor's oath to do no harm so the choice not to tell humans anything about them and let humans come up with the one conclusions about who and what the beast is. I guess the beast wants humans to have their free will intact, but yet because of the eye implant technology humans free will of seeing the truth was taken away. 


5. An open-ended question, with whatever answer you think. Will Colton and Iris be able to be together?
I sure hope that they will be able to find each other and be together, but will Colton be sent up to the beast ship or will they send Iris back down to the Second. I think since Andre loves her so much he will not allow Iris to go back to the Second so Colton will have to find her on the ship. Well, I'm not the Author Cameron Jace and only he can really give us the answer to this when and if he writes a second book. 

The life Cora knew is gone, and she struggles to fit in her new home and life.

Cora Horton was born to serve Eden. She’s one of the hundreds of women created for that purpose, and after four years of grueling training as one of the elite Jocale soldiers, she intends to serve Eden well when she joins the military of the parent community of Meridian. But a new assignment near the end of her training changes everything for Cora. She shifts from a warrior gifted with empathic abilities to the promised wife of a Meridian general overnight, robbing her of all she has worked for. 

Silas Abernathy is the Commissioner of the Alliance Community of Spero and the leader of the hunting party that rescues Cora after she makes a daring escape from Meridian. He is strong, commanding, and committed to his responsibilities, which include raising his siblings after the deaths of his parents. But Silas can’t deny his attraction to Cora for long. She’s tough, independent, and determined, all qualities that jointly frustrate and arouse him.

Here is a post about a book my friend I met online wrote. He is a great author and I love his work. Now if I can be just as half a talented as him and get my own story off the ground. Also in about 5 days after this is posted I will do a follow up with my discussion questions for this book. 

Iris Beaumont turns seventeen, she is threatened to be taken by the Beasts, the rulers of the new America. After the destruction of the world, the Beasts provide citizens with whatever they need in exchange for the one teenage girl they enslave every week. They call them the Brides, and they never come back. Iris has been defying the system since she was ten and never cared for the Beast's rules. Then she meets Colton Ray, he's unlike anyone she knows. His confidence and dominance are otherworldly she can't rationalize the attraction she feels for him. Colton has one slight problem though. It's rumored he is one of the Beasts, and Iris could be the next on the Beast's list. 

Shattered Rose how Love takes you on a Journey

A story wrote to be a pastor's wife from Ennis, Texas so of course there several scripture verses mentioned in this book and Christian values. This book is quite sad but enduring. Sorry if this post is a bit long I just could not find a way to edit things out that did not pertain to the main story. 

When obsession and love blend, and darkness consumes the mind and spirit, is it even possible to recognize the light? Set in the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, nineteen-year-old Avery Nichols embarks on a journey of love, loss, and recognition that perfection is often an illusion. She gives all she has to the one man who cannot love her back, but still refuses to let her go. Now another fights to give her everything she doesn’t believe she deserves. It is the beginning of her sophomore year at Winsor University, and Avery is determined that nothing will stop her momentum, not even the internal battle she has fought for four years. Forced to live on campus because of her alumni scholarship, she is thrilled to get a University Apartment and is swept away by her roommate’s cousin, Jake, whose charm and charisma touches every part of her soul and shatters every piece of her heart. 

Broken and lost, Avery meets Parker, a man who not only offers her hope but also teaches her to love in ways she never thought possible. Jake is complicated and damaged, fighting to find his way after the loss of his mother, and despite his every effort to stop it, Avery gets behind his defenses and forces him to feel once again. He doesn’t want to love her, but can’t let her go. Parker is genuine, honest, and falls for Avery the moment he sees her. He wants nothing more than to love her if she would only let him.
