UNKNOWN TALKS- EPISODE 11- All the bright places by Jennifer Niven (book/movie opinion)

Imagine
                             ALL THE BRIGHT PLACES                                                   -By Jennifer Niven Hello, my amazing unknowns! How is life? Well, now that I am back, I have decided to do a book review. I read the book in a week and I finished it last Friday. I watched the movie too (it is on Netflix) but I think the book is ten times better than the movie, as I think it is kind of more lighthearted. I have to say this now, it can trigger some people because it mentions- suicide, mentally illness, grief, loss, bullying, and bipolar disorder. Now, let's dive in... The story starts with Violet Markey standing on the ledge of the Bell Tower (where her sister died a year before) and meets Theodore Finch who tries to take her down. Violet's sister died in a car accident (with her in the car) and since then she has stopped living her life. Finch is known as a freak in the school. Finch is fighting bipolar disorder and tried to commit suicide multiple times. Finch

UNKNOWN TALKS- EPISODE 8- SAFETY ON THE INTERNET FOR TEENS

               SAFETY ON THE INTERNET FOR TEENS                                                         -By Joane Unknown Hello people! Today, I am going to talk about safety on the internet for teenagers. I am 13 years old, almost a teenager. I have an account on any social media platform and I personally am exposed to a lot of dangers on the internet. I want adults, parents and children, and teens to read this post and take seriously everything I am going to say. I am going to show you the dangers, my personal experiences, and how to stay safe on social media and the internet. I got my first phone when I was six, in 2014. Internet is and has always been a dangerous place but when you are an innocent child it gets ten times more dangerous. I didn't have many special events but I clearly remember getting phone calls from unknown people who wanted something from me. And another thing I remember was watching youtube and seeing mature content that violated youtube's guidelines. No

UNKNOWN TALKS- EPISODE 7- Sold by Partricia McCormick (book opinion)

Imagine
                                                Sold                                                                      -Patricia McCormick Hey guys! How are you all doing? I hope everyone is doing fine! Today, I have decided to do a book review, and tell you guys my opinion about this amazing book I finished twenty minutes ago. I started reading this book yesterday and finished it today, so you can see I was excited to finish it.  The book is about child trafficking and prostitution for underage girls. The story starts with 13-year-old Lakshmi who was sold to work as a housekeeper in India but ends up in the "Happiness House" where she is forced to prostitute to earn money. Mumtaz, her boss, and the other girls' boss takes their money and forces them all to prostitute. If they don't do what they are told to do by Mumtaz, they will be beaten up until they couldn't walk. When Lakshmi refuses to sleep with her first man, Mumtaz locks her in a small room and holds

UNKNOWN TALKS- EPISODE 6- Reviewing my first ever short story.

Imagine
            REVIEWING MY FIRST EVER SHORT STORY Hey guys! What are you doing? I hope everything's alright, and everybody is doing okay. Today, I have decided to go back some months ago. I started writing on the 16th of December 2020, almost eight months ago. I started off by writing short stories on Reedsy Prompts. It started as a "why not?". Now, I stopped writing stories to focus more on my books. It became stressful after a while because the people from reedsy would send you a topic and different prompt to write on a Friday evening and you had one week to finish it, until next Friday. You must have between 1k-3k words, and it was hard at the beginning especially when you were given a certain story to write. The thing with these prompts was a prize, a $50 dollar prize for the one who won the prompt. I have never won one, and it is better because it was stressful and I would be very sad and disappointed if I wouldn't win.  The first story was called "Humans"

UNKNOWN TALKS- EPISODE 5- My Cambridge B1 exam experience (storytime)

Imagine
                 MY CAMBRIDGE B1 EXAM EXPERIENCE Hello people! I am back with a new episode of "UNKNOWN TALKS"! Before we start I want to thank you guys for reading what I am writing here on my blog. My latest post, the one with our society was really appreciated and I am glad it was this way!  So, the story with my B1 exam started one year ago, when I started training for it. It was my first ever Cambridge exam. As time went by, I was getting better and better at doing those practice tests and exercises. I want to add that I was training with a private tutor, and no that is not a fad, it is just extra help. I have one of the best English tutors in the world. She knows me since I was ten years old, not knowing the smallest bit of English and she made me speak and write English at an amazing level. I have been doing extra English classes for almost three years, and she made me love English! Back to our story, I was supposed to have the exam somewhere in January. It changed my

Imagine
                             THE BROKEN SOCIETY                                                                        -By Joane Unknown Before we start, I want to add a disclaimer. This post should be taken as seriously as possible and it may have some triggering sentences that may bother some of you. I am not judging anybody, I am just analyzing today's behavior. I am 13, and no, I don't know everything about the world we live in but I see things and even if I am young, you should consider my opinions. Thank you so much for reading this and enjoy! This is society is broken, completely broken. We hate to hear the truth from people. We are silent so we don't hurt anybody. We fake smiles and even our lives to seem cool, to fit in. We change ourselves to "fit in". The people who don't fit in are called weird. That is why some people are outsiders. They want us to fit into a type. What type are you? The funny one? The smart one? The weird one? Well, weird is not

UNKNOWN TALKS- EPISODE 3- My top five books

Imagine
                          MY TOP FIVE FAVOURITE BOOKS Hey people! How is your day? How are you feeling? I hope everything is fine and you are not overworking. Today is Friday! Yay! Fun fact, Friday is my favorite day of the week. I have decided earlier today to do something a bit different because it is Friday (a chill day). By the way, this top will include only romance books (one of my favorite book genres). All the books included here are UNKNOWN APPROVED!  1. Stay with me- Ayobami Adebayo -This is for sure one of the most heartbreaking sad books I have ever read in my whole entire life. Maybe, I am going to do a book opinion on it too but I am not too sure. I read it last summer, one year ago. It is a sad story where a woman is trying to have children but she has a lot of problems with infertility. Her husband has another wife, and she hooks up with his brother. Her first two children die and only her last one survives. There are a lot of other details but as I said, I read it one

UNKNOWN TALKS- EPOSIDE 2- Breathless by Jennfier Niven (book opinion)

Imagine
                         BREATHLESS                                                   -Jennifer Niven Hey guys! In today's blog post I am going to be talking about the romantic but sad book I read probably two months ago. I said that because I might have forgotten some of the details and I don't want you guys to think that I didn't read it. I am going to say it again and again, this is in the top three books I have read. I said on my Instagram (@iamjoaneunknown) that I was probably going to pick this book or 11 paper heart but in the end I pick "Breathless". The story starts with Claudine Henry, who is going to go to college in the fall, who wants to become an author and lose her virginity but everything seems to fall apart when her dad gives her the news that he and her mom are getting a divorce. Then her father sends both his ex-wife and daughter to an island somewhere in Georgia, but unfortunately she and the boy who was texting her stop talking because of the

UNKNOWN TALKS- EPISODE 1- They both die at the end by Adam Silvera (book opinion)

Imagine
            THEY BOTH DIE AT THE END                                                                  -Adam Silvera                        Hey guys! Today I am going to be talking about the new sensation that started on tik tok- They both die at the end. If you have tik tok, you may have heard about this book as the most heartbreaking book ever, and I don't complain. In my opinion, this book is amazingly sad but it is not the basic sad-romantic story we all know.  The story starts with Mateo Torrez and Rufus Emeterio, the main characters. They both get the call from dead announcers. Mateo is the shy, introverted kind of boy, while Rufus is the extrovert, bad kind of guy. Mateo's mother died after he was born, and Rufus's parents died in a car accident. Now, Rufus was bisexual while Mateo was straight and a virgin. They fall in love at the end of the book. BTW-  I am not going to describe the book fully because it is not right for me to say those kinds of things, as I am not

Imagine
           IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT I am back after two months of ghosting around. And, I am going to try and post different things on different topics.

This post is more of an announcement of my new series- UNKNOWN TALKS, but I will probably post something today or tomorrow if I am going to be busy.
