Nature and Literature

I've been joining National Bookstore and Philippine Star's contest called #MyFaveBookMySelfie2014 on Instagram and I really need to upload a unique and creative photo. So, as I was also bored and really wanted to join and win of course! Because the prize is P2,500.00 worth of gift certificate! As a bookworm, my eyes were definitely on the prize! So I decided to take photos of my favorite book series I AM NUMBER FOUR at our garden!

For those of you who still has no idea what the series is all about (But I bet you guys have watched the movie I Am Number Four), here is a quick summary from Wikipedia about I Am Number Four:

"This follows the story of John Smith, a 15-year old from the planet Lorien, and Henri, his Cêpan (protector), as they run from the Mogadorians, another alien race that is hunting John and eight other teenage Lorics residing on the planet Earth. These nine teens are members of the Garde, a group of Loric people gifted with special powers called "Legacies". Cêpans, who are also Loric, do not acquire legacies and most often become protectors and mentors for young members of the Garde. The teenagers are protected by a charm that only allows them to be killed in numeric order which works only when they stay apart. The first three have been killed, and John is Number Four. After a mishap in Florida, John and Henri move to Paradise, Ohio. While here, John falls for Sarah Hart, makes enemies with Mark James (the conflict is later resolved), becomes best friends with Sam Goode and finds and keeps a dog which he named Bernie Kosar. Eventually, Sam finds out John's secret but keeps it and is supportive of him. Sarah also finds out about John when he saves her from a fire in Mark's house, leaping out a two story window and surviving. Near the end of the book, the Mogadorians find John and a battle happens at Paradise High School. Number Six finds John before the battle starts and she along with John, Sarah, Sam, Henri, Bernie Kosar (who turns out to be a Loric Chimæra who can change forms) and Mark fight against the Mogadorians. The Mogadorians lose the battle, but Henri dies and Bernie Kosar gets badly injured. Because the school is now destroyed and there are dead bodies strewn around town, the blame falls toward John and Henri who are now suspected terrorists. John was forced to leave his girlfriend Sarah because of the danger. John, Sam, Six and Bernie Kosar (their dog) then go in search of the rest of the Garde so they can unite and defeat the Mogadorians before they take over Earth."

So if you like science fiction, aliens, super-powers and a whole lot of action, I wouldn't say anything anymore but just to read this amazing series! It's a MUST READ!
