The Unpopular Opinions Tag

Image
Soooo this unpopular opinions thing. I have them of course. BUT I do not think that everybody should agree with me or that my opinion is the gospel truth (but you can think that if you want ;) ). THIS IS A FUN THING. And, please, if you want to-- go ahead and write a huge comment disagreeing with me.  Sophia from Ravens and Writing Desks tagged me and according to her this tag originated with TheBookArcher (I'm trusting you, Sophia). Thanks so much for the tag! 1. A popular book or series that you didn't like:     Yup, you saw right. :D I don't like The Hunger Games series.  The weird thing is, the first time I read the books (or the book , the first one) I loved them. I thought they were the greatest thing in the universe. BUT, when I read them the second time... I wasn't so impressed. Especially with the way Katniss was written. Something about it totally didn't work the second time.  I don't even know why this happened. I...

It's a Random Day {4}

I think I need to make a new picture for this. It's been a while since I did a "random day" post so I thought I'd do one today. :) I'm sorry I don't get to post more than once a week usually, but that's a huge  improvement from last school year so I'm happy. Songs I've Been Listening to: This gem is Fronting by Seventeen and it's on their newest mini album. I really like it. <3 And you should go have a listen.  I've also been listening to this awesome Celtic music to get me through preparing for my American History presentation. It really made me concentrate and also, Celtic music is my love. I can't get enough of that flute music. School is....Blegh: This week I've been just in a bleh mood with school and everything. Everything's boring. Everything makes me tired... and bored (did I mention that already?). It's just a ho-hum week. And ever since I've been back to school, it's basically...

Guest Review: Grisha Trilogy by SJ Bouquet

I wanted to be a pirate princess when I was a little girl. I wanted to wear leather, shoot guns, swing swords, and amass hoards of treasure. Unfortunately, pirates don't represent the same romantic notions they once did. At 19, I'm still growing up, and still want to throw all my responsibilities to the wind and chase freedom. But alas, I've exhausted my interest in college (didn't care for that whole write 10+ pages worth of essays CONSTANTLY thing) and I've developed a strong fear of open water (watched one too many movies about ship wrecks). So how does this pirate wannabe spend her days? Tweeting pics of my dog and reading aaaalll the YA and classic novels. I'll always be a pirate at heart, but for now I'll settle for being an Erudite, a Slytherin, lover of Sebastian Stan's face, and a die-hard Leigh Bardugo and Jane Austen fan.    Dear Readers, You should be warned that I liked this series a lot. I just read them for...
