A review of Silver Eyes by Scott Cawthon

Best Horror/ Thriller Book I've Read
wikipedia

This week I finished reading Silver Eyes by Scott Cawthon and Kira Breed-Wrisley. This book is one that I haven't been able to put down until I finished the whole book, which doesn't happen often. Because of this, I would like to highly recommend this book.

Some background is needed for you to understand before reading this book. If you don't know the game Five Nights At Freddy's do a quick Google search. You can watch people on youtube play through it if you want. BE WARNED! It is a horror game with jump scares so if that's not your cup of tea just read some of the background on this website.The basic premise of the game is to survive as a night guard at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza for five nights. This seems simple enough until you realize that the animatronic animals move around on their own and trying to kill you.

If you're brave enough to watch play-throughs of this game on YouTube I highly suggest you watch Markiplier play the game. He's funny and his reactions to the jump scares are funny enough that I was still able to sleep at night after watching the videos he made.

It's important to note that these games came out before the book and you can either read the book or play the game first. It doesn't really matter but personally, I think watching someone play the game than reading the book works better. It is also important to note that the games came out before the book. Scott Cawthon decided to write this book after making the games in order to give background as to why the game is taking place.

This book had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I wasn't able to stop reading it and because of that, I was able to finish this book (which is 330 pages) in about a week. It shed light on so many things that I didn't even think to consider in the game. Things like, why are they trying to kill me? How are they moving on their own? What started all this? These questions have clear answers by the end of this book and it's why I highly recommend it for anyone who loves Five Nights At Freddy's or anyone that's just into horror in general. You will not be disappointed.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
