Divergent and Other Book Related Things

I just visited the Notebook Sisters blog, which I love. It's so fun and random and basically reminds me a lot of me and my sister... :) Anyways, on today's post (which was titled-- "Turn to Page 45") Cait mentioned something she found on pinterest and decided to do. I am gonna have to copy her amazing idea here on my blog.

Ok, here goes:


Well, I finished reading "Divergent" by Veronica Roth and it was every bit as awesome as I heard. I mean whoa talk about mind-blowing, puts-all-kinds-of-questions-in-your-head! As I said. Awesome. 
And the sentence is... drumroll please....

Marcus offers him the knife.

No thanks, Marcus, I'm not hungry. For butter. By itself. Okay, that's not actually what it's talking about and this definitely doesn't describe my life. Knife has the connotation of violence which I do not participate in. Ever. Except when there's only one brownie left. That baby's mine. 

Let me try a few more. 


"Tut, tut!"
(haha...oh, wow, I love this. It is not at all accurate, but I love it. So funny!)


"Stars," she muttered when she was able to look up into its belly.

(I often mutter this to myself when I look up at the night sky. I mean who knew that those sparkling points of light were stars? Ugh, mind-boggling. And in a belly no less. The wonders of the world will never cease.)


"That doesn't matter right now."

(I like to think I don't procrastinate...too often. Well *shrugs* it might be pretty accurate.)

And that's all for now. I might be able to persuade Tansie Gray from Tansie Gray (blog) to do a guest post some time. Oh, and for those of you who were wondering, her comment on one of my posts was all in fun. We talk to each other like that all the time. 

                                                      Later Gators,
                                                                        X

Waiting on Wednesday {2}

Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking the Spine where you talk about books that you can't wait to read, but that are, unfortunately, not published yet.   In a Handful of Dust by Mindy McGinnis Publication date: September 23, 2014 Publisher: Katherine Tegen Books The only thing bigger than the world is fear. Lucy’s life by the pond has always been full. She has water and friends, laughter and the love of her adoptive mother, Lynn, who has made sure that Lucy’s childhood was very different from her own. Yet it seems Lucy’s future is settled already—a house, a man, children, and a water source—and anything beyond their life by the pond is beyond reach. When disease burns through their community, the once life-saving water of the pond might be the source of what’s killing them now. Rumors of desalinization plants in California have lingered in Lynn’s mind, and the prospect of a “normal” life for Lucy sets the two of them on an epi

Book Haul + My First Guest Post (!)

Guys, guys, guys, guys. I did my very first guest post at Tansie Gray's blog Totally Tansie  and it was awesome collaborating with her! Tansie's blog is full of hilarious book reviews, rants, and writing tips. I had a great time writing the post: "10 Ways to Make Your Sister Mad"  I'd love it if you could pop over to Totally Tansie and check it out (And maybe leave a comment. Hint, hint). [][][][][][][][] I also went to my favorite used-books store last Sunday. I didn't get as many books as usual...Not many YA novels *gasp*. I felt unfulfilled. But I didn't want to spend what the books cost, so I snatched a few middle-grade types.  1. Princess Sonora and the Long Sleep by Gail Carson Levine A short fairytale re-telling of Sleeping Beauty in a funny, simple way. It's very  short. 107 pages short. 2.   The Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan Book 2 of the Percy Jackson series! Now I can finally read it and see how it measures up to th

Airplanes and Sky

Remember when I talked about big travel things that I was going to do this summer? THE TIME. HAS. COME. IT IS HERE. YAY. As you can probably tell, I'm just a little excited. Me and my family are headed to Taiwan this summer for my uncle's wedding and since plane trips aren't really a regular thing for us, it'll be awesome.  If you know me even a little bit, you know that I love  traveling and gosh I'm just so excited to be able to be in and see another culture for a little while. *happy dance* Another reason I'm writing this is to tell you about how I get ready for major trips and whatever little tips I use to make traveling easier. Maybe they'll help you in a future trip. ^^ Any trip needs music, but especially one where there are multiple long layovers and a hugely long flight over the Pacific Ocean. I've been updating the music on my phone (music helps me sleep so much better too), which is fun and boring at the sa
