Game of Thrones

Just thought I'd give the one person (me) who knows this blog exists a heads up that I'm working on a big set of spoilers! You guessed it: GAME OF THRONES!! I've already read the first and second book, so I'm speeding through the first again and marking down each death. When my list is fully compiled, I shall post it on here and make "When does ___ die?" easier to find! :D

Also, can you believe the level of foreshadowing in the first few chapters of GoT? It's ridiculous. Martin basically tells readers what will happen long before it happens. He's a genius author, IMO.

"The Name of the Star" by Maureen Johnson

Warning: Will Contain Spoilers

So here's how this works: I say the name of the book, who it's by, then I list spoilers that may or may not ruin the book for you. If the book has sequels, well, you need to wait until the post on those books becomes available.


"The Name of the Star" by Maureen Johnson

Rory chokes on a piece of meat and then can suddenly see ghosts.

Alistair is dead.

Jazza doesn't die.

Jerome and Rory do end up making out.

The hot young police officer, Stephen, is a real cop but he's part of a ghost-seeing section that consists of three people.

Boo is a cop, too. 

The old phone Boo carries is actually a tool used to "kill" or erase ghosts called a terminus.

Stephen can see ghosts because he attempted suicide. Callum can see them because he was electrocuted. Boo can see them because she was in a car crash.

The Ripper is a ghost named Newman who was part of the old ghost-seeing cop division when he was alive. He murdered everyone else in the division and then killed himself.

Newman could see ghosts.

Stephen is shot up with insulin by Newman. Callum and Rory hand over their termini, which are subsequently destroyed, in order to convince Newman to save him.

Charlotte doesn't die.

Rory gets stabbed by Newman. She doesn't die, either.

Newman dies and so does Jo.

All three termini are destroyed.

Rory signs a nondisclosure agreement and is sent away to live with her parents.

Rory is now a terminus and kills ghosts with her touch.

Bonjour! Je m'apelle Laura, and I'm a college student. Because I have so many classes I'm taking, sometimes I just really want to know if a book sucks or not before I read it. You know that saying, "Be the change you want to see in the world?" This is me doing that.

Introducing Spoilerific!, my very own spoiler blog! I'm not going to mess around with plot summaries or anything, I'm just gonna straight-up spoil books. So beware. If it's on this blog, unless you have read the book or want to know what happens, DON'T READ IT. It's that simple.

Welp, I look forward to spoiling books for you! :D
