Reserved List

I have read many books, and I have always been a total bookworm from the time I started reading. Proof: six years ago my family and I lived in a different state and I easily read 100 books each year of the almost two we lived there. Easily.

Now I've finally caught on to the Goodreads trend and made an account. It's so handy! I can add different books to my read, to-read, or customized bookshelf. It's a reader's/list-maker's paradise. There are several dystopian/fantasy books I've wanted to read for a long time and I'm getting some of that reading done this summer. I just got another pile of books I reserved at the library today.


City of Bones (Bk. 1, The Mortal Instruments) by Cassandra Clare
Insurgent (Bk. 2, Divergent Trilogy) by Veronica Roth
Scarlet  (Bk. 2, The Lunar Chronicles) by Marissa Meyer
Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas

I've already read Divergent (Bk.1) by Veronica Roth and Cinder (Bk.1) by Marissa Meyer. Both of them were beyond great! I found out about City of Bones by seeing a trailer for the movie that's apparently based on the book and I found Throne of Glass on Amazon while scoping potential new reads. 

I think you can agree that they all sound like amazing adventures. :) 

You may look at the books again. 


What's on your summer reading list? Any chance you have suggestions for me? ;) I'm open to almost any genera, except I don't like dark novels, so. Not too dark anyways. 

Happy reading,

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
