Mini Book Thoughts (1)

This new feature is something that I saw Shannon (from It Starts at Midnight) and Holly (from The Fox's Hideaway) mention on Twitter and it was the perfect feature because it's a list of all the books I've read but haven't gotten the chance to review (even though I really did plan on reviewing them), books that a lot of bloggers have already reviewed, and/or books I didn't have many thoughts on. I plan on making this a monthly feature (either at the end or beginning of the month) but this one includes books all the way from the beginning of the year so there's quite a lot.
**I don't take credit for this feature**

The Start of Me and You by Emery Lord
Release Date: March 31st, 2015
Publisher: Bloomsbury
Rating: 4.5-5 STARS
The Start of Me and You
THOUGHTS:
I love Emery Lord and Open Road Summer! And this book was no exception! It was such a "me" contemporary book with great characters, a fun plot, and swoooons. I would definitely recommend this to all contemp readers/lovers!

Back to School: Senior Edition

 

Yes, it is that time of year where school starts once again. And this year we're seniooooooors! 
Not that the first few months will be fun considering college apps plus AP classes and everything the school tortures us with. School hasn't even begun yet and the summer was hectic and we barely got many posts done. So it won't be much easier as the year progresses. Hopefully we'll still be able to keep up but if not sorry in advance if posts are pretty sporadic. We appreciate all of your support :)

Review: Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon

Everything, EverythingEverything, Everything by Nicola Yoon
320 Pages
Release Date: September 1st, 2015
Publisher: Delacorte Books for Young Readers
Source: YallWest via Author
Rating: 4-4.5 STARS

Goodsreads Summary:
My disease is as rare as it is famous. Basically, I’m allergic to the world. I don’t leave my house, have not left my house in seventeen years. The only people I ever see are my mom and my nurse, Carla.

But then one day, a moving truck arrives next door. I look out my window, and I see him. He’s tall, lean and wearing all black—black T-shirt, black jeans, black sneakers, and a black knit cap that covers his hair completely. He catches me looking and stares at me. I stare right back. His name is Olly.

Maybe we can’t predict the future, but we can predict some things. For example, I am certainly going to fall in love with Olly. It’s almost certainly going to be a disaster.

Sunday Street Team: What You Left Behind by Jessica Verdi {Guest Post+Giveaway}

The lovely Nori @ReadWriteLove hosts Sunday Street Team which is basically a combination between a blog tour, book meme, and street team of one author/book every month. 

What You Left BehindWhat You Left Behind by Jessica Verdi
320 Pages 
Release Date: August 4th, 2015 
Publisher: Sourcebooks

Goodreads Summary: 
It’s all Ryden’s fault. If he hadn’t gotten Meg pregnant, she would have never stopped her chemo treatments and would still be alive. Instead, he’s failing fatherhood one dirty diaper at a time. And it’s not like he’s had time to grieve while struggling to care for their infant daughter, start his senior year, and earn the soccer scholarship he needs to go to college.

The one person who makes Ryden feel like his old self is Joni. She’s fun and energetic—and doesn’t know he has a baby. But the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to keep his two worlds separate. Finding one of Meg’s journals only stirs up old emotions, and Ryden’s convinced Meg left other notebooks for him to find, some message to help his new life make sense. But how is he going to have a future if he can’t let go of the past?

Loooooooooooooove this cover! The sky and the background looks so pretty and I love how symmetrical it is (No idea if that was intentional or not)

High School Musical Book Tag



Thank you to Serena @Reading Over Sleeping for tagging me (ages ago) for this book tag! 

I had so much fun trying to find books and reminiscing over all the HSM memories!! 

1. The Start of Something New - A new favorite genre/author/series
P.S. I Still Love You (To All the Boys I've Loved Before, #2)New by my standards is anything within this year so I'll have to say Jodi Meadows for an author and the Illuminae Files (BOOK SHOVES TO EVERYONE) by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff for new series :) 


2. What I've Been Looking For - A book that has everything you've ever wanted
P.S I Still Love You by Jenny Han- This book was just so me and I loved everything about it. 


3. Fabulous - A book with the biggest diva
Magnus Bane from The Mortal Instrument series by Cassandra Clare

4. Status Quo - A stereotype defying character
I honestly can't think of anyone...help?
