30 December 2016 Life Update

Hey All! We made it! It's the last Friday of the 2016! Woo hoo!! I hope you 2017s are kind to you! Sorry for not posting anything last week, I kinda completely forgot about it. I was a little preoccupied reading and trying to get into the Christmas spirit. (Spoiler, I never really got into the spirit) I am still trying to complete my self appointed reading challenge, but I only have two books left! One of them only has about 160 pages left in it, the other is about 350 pages. I've got this! Okay, so there may be some changes coming up to the format of the blog again. I may go up to posting more times a week because at the moment, I am all queued up until February and I want you all to get these reviews a bit sooner! I am also planning on starting a youtube channel! So some of these reviews will not be posted as text, but as a video now! I may actually move over to youtube permanently, but I'm not quite sure yet! Like I said, I have two more books to read this year...

16 December 2016 Life Update

Hey all! It's that time of the week again! Update time! I can't remember if I said this in the last update or not, but if I did, then here's a reminder! I'm up to two review posts a week now! Along with these little updates on Fridays, that means I'm up to three total posts a week! Woo hoo!! In book news: I am trying to read a total of seventeen books this month. So far, with only fifteen days left, I have read six. Here's hoping I can get this done! I think I will, but I'm not going to make any definite promises! I am currently reading Blood and Salt by Kim Liggett. It's a book about a girl who's mom goes back to this cult she grew up in and now the main character and her twin brother have to go find her and try to stay alive. I'm quite intrigued so far, though I'm only about thirty pages in, but it's pretty cool! I'm being cautiously optimistic, mainly because I have been burned before. The first fifty pages can be good, but...

9 December 2016

Hey All!! So, in case you did not notice this week, I am updating with reviews more regularly! Since I have a longer queue, I am going back up to posting a review on Monday AND Wednesday with the updates of Fridays! Woo!! Okay, so I am challenging myself to try to read sixteen books this month and so far, I have read one and three quarters. I am sure I will get it done, I just have to sit down and do it! The book I am currently reading is Winter by Marissa Meyer. I am in love with this series, mainly because of the characteristics of the women (thank you bad ass women figures) so if you have not read it yet, check it out! I have reviews posted already for three of the books, and my review for Fairest will be up soon! Other books on my to read list include: Stars Above, Shards & Ashes, The Wyrd Sisters, Shakespeare by Another Name (keeping some scholarly books in there), Blood and Salt, The Crown's Game, A Wicked Thing, Vanishing Girls, Reign of Shadows, Heartless, My La...

2 December 2016 Life Update

Hello All!! I am so sorry I haven't posted an update in a while, but I've actually been pretty busy! I went home last weekend for Thanksgiving break and had a great time visiting with my parents, brother, and puppies! I even went to go see Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, which I actually really enjoyed. The biggest thing I have been doing recently is finals! Classes are officially over, but next week starts finals week. Being an English major, however, means I do not have in class finals, just essays. I have officially turned in two out of three, but I still have to finish that third paper. I am hoping to get the first draft done by today so I can edit and have everything done by Sunday! Then the fun begins! (By the fun I mean reading and watching Netflix and baking) Speaking of reading, this month I have a goal to read sixteen books! I hope I will be able to, but I am making no promises as I still need to work on the typed edits for my book! Well, I think that...
