I'll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson My rating: 3 of 5 stars 2.5/5 stars. Yep. People are going to slaughter me for not enjoying this book. I'm sorry. You can read the reasons in my updates… Overall, I'll just list a few things for why I didn't like it: - "art"--> pretentious - author's voice didn't give me enough diversity for it to capture my interest. It felt like a really monotonous narration FOR ME. Pls don't kill me. Pls. - I like books to calm me but the angst in this book made me extremely anxious and I'm sorry but if I'm getting little anxious episodes; I ain't ever gonna love the book. These are all personal reasons so don't look at my review as a guide!! I'm so glad to return this to the library. I'm super disappointed, I find the blurb very misleading… :( View all my reviews

That Summer by Sarah Dessen My rating: 4 of 5 stars 4.5/5 stars. This was my first ever audiobook; and I finished listening to it within 1 day. I speed it up to 1.5x, because I find Americans are quite slow at talking. A few thoughts on the format itself; wonderful speaker, however I'm really confused why everybody but Haven had a bloody southern accent??? She had a more western, Valley accent, which left me in hysterics when I heard every southerner accent. Also, when the speaker read the NY accents, I shed a few tears of laughter, as earlier this year I spent 6 weeks in NYC, and know this accent was priceless. It sounded super Aussie. And that's coming from an Aussie. I think the speaker had a nice drawl for it; but how she pronounced the 'r''s was very Aussie. Okay, review of the plot: Absolutely amazing. Extremely witty, with great heartfelt, adolsescent revelations. So relatable. I was feeling disturbed 80% of the time, which inc...

Hi friends! Exciting news..... I'VE MOVED TO WORDPRESS ! Please go follow/subscribe over there if you wish to read my content. Depending on the success, I may return back to beloved Blogspot. But I'm just a bit scared after being hacked the other day. Thank you for reading, I look forward to hearing from all of you over on m y new page :D

Somebody has rifled through my settings, and changed a lot. For example, they changed my settings to say this blog is Adult Content. OMG it is NOT. Please be patient. I will soon clear everything up. I'm sorry if something in consequence to this mishap, has inconvenienced you.

Hey guys, I've been hoping to do a bunch of stuff today (transfer blog to Wordpress, read a book, and do some photography). Unfortunately at midnight last night, I woke up with my jaw locked. Which happens. But I never usually wake up from it. I've been in an immense amount of pain for all of the day-- I even caught the bus back to and from (on the way back, I caught the same bus as my brother, who was returning from school-- his face captured priceless embarrassment) the doctors. The doctor ended up giving me some strong pain killer. Woo.  Me, in pain, trying to counteract my TMJ (doctor suggested-- I hate it) BUT HEY! LOOK HOW STRAIGHT MY TEETH LOOK :D TY BRACES.

I just answered this in a poll from Goodreads, and I thought you guys may want to know which Cassie Clare books are my most favourite! Her books have been some of my absolute favourites, and with so many, it's hard to rank them. Needless to say, I enjoy all of them; aside from City of Bones. That book is boring (for me). My order, from most fave to least: Clockwork Princess Lady Midnight Clockwork Angel Clockwork Prince Lord of Shadows City of Lost Souls City of Glass City of Heavenly Fire City of Ashes City of Fallen Angels City of Bones Which Shadowhunter book is your favourite?

For those who don't know (like I didn't); watch the video explanation from the beloved Ariel.  I'm excited to see heaps of content from all my booktubers! Next year, hopefully I will join. I wasn't ready this year. But when I turn 18, I wish to start my own channel-- as well as keeping up with blogging :) Are any of you participating in Booktubeathon 2017? 

The biggest piece of news I have this week is.... I WON A GIVEAWAY! WOOOOOOO I NEVER WIN THIS KIND OF STUFF! The book is Fragile Chaos  by   Amber R. Duell .  I'm eager to read and review it.

This week I've reviewed:  The Prophecy Sisters Little Women Night World (Volume 3) and... I Was Here Did you guys review anything this week? Or if you don't review; did you complete any books this week?

I Was Here by Gayle Forman My rating: 4 of 5 stars 4/5 stars. I highly recommend this to anybody who enjoys: [bookcover:Thirteen Reasons Why|29844228] or [bookcover:Paper Towns|6442769] Initially picking this up, I felt pissed off. I just read the blurb and came to the realisation this isn't the sequel to [bookcover:If I Stay|4374400]. I got this as a gift from a friend last year, and she said it was the sequel. I shoved it into my pile of books that I was never going to read, because I couldn't stand the movie adaption and didn't bother with the book. But this year, about ago, I read [bookcover:If I Stay|4374400]. It was in my library and I thought, why not? I don't own the first one, only the second one, so I may as well. It was fine bla bla bla I didn't find it profound or anything. But within the first page of this book; I was hooked. It brought me back to, what I like to call, my Reading Renaissance, back in 2014. I got into the fad...

Happy Friday, bookworms. So my bookshelf is too big in my tiny room to take a full frontal shot, so this is taken from my position on the floor, attempting so masterfully to capture it. 

Again; welcome to a new book post meme :D Girl xoxo summarises it as:  Write a post that features a quote with food or drinks that showed up in a recent read, as well as if it’s something you think you’d like or not. Then share it in the link-up at the hosts’ blog. Simple enough! This is my library book TBR pile with my faves-- caramel musks. 

Night World Volume 3 by L.J. Smith My rating: 2 of 5 stars 1.5/5 stars. Summary: wow this sucks they all suck I read this bc it's one of the last things on my shelf that I haven't read and I've read the other 2 packages. This is the worst in the trilogy. Book 1: 1 star. Book 2: 2 stars. Book 3: 2.5 stars. If anybody wants my copy, I'll gleefully give it away. Waste of time :/ Same plot; different names. Predictable, unnecessary. Such a shame.

The title explains itself. I'm always interested in blog communities, and you guys know how much I love Goodread's community. Most of the people I follow use Wordpress, while I use Blogger to host my blog. It's always inconvenient to sign in as a guest on so many people's posts. I love Google. Really, I do. But Blogspot doesn't even have an app anymore. I could transfer all my material over, it's really a matter of whether you guys would follow me over? 

Welcome to a new book blog meme, everyone! Girlxoxo summarised this meme to be: " A weekly meme where you can share new words that you’ve encountered or spotlight words you love." If you've been up to date with what my CR is, you'd know I've been painstakingly slowly  making my way through Empire of Storms. Well I've noticed the word is: Archipelago 1920x1200px

My main goal for this week is FINISH EMPIRE OF STORMS. Oh my gosh, it's taking me way too long to read. I don't know why, but I'm just not as keen this time to binge read it. What are you reading goals this week? 

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott My rating: 4 of 5 stars 4.5/5 stars. LOVED THIS STORY!!! My only update was: "Beth is my fave. Fave moment (so far): Amy trying to be a lil bitch (as usual) and says samphire instead of vampire. Priceless. Jo's deadpanning keeps me inthralled in this book. It's just so sweet <3" I have nothing else to add. I really enjoyed it. View all my reviews

Heya guys, So I've decided to join a fantastic idea called Make Me Read It Read-A-Thon, created I think???? by Tea and Titles. I'll update soon which books I'm adding. I definitely suggest you guys to also join in. I have to see how uni work goes etc. But the poll will be linked here, and it'll be over on my Goodreads page. Would you guys consider joining in? UPDATE: YOU CAN NOW VOTE OVER ON MY NEW BLOG, CONSTANT RAVING REVIEWS. 

This week, I've recently read: Close Liaisons  (The Krinar Chronicles #1)   by   Anna Zaires Twist Me  (Twist Me #1)   by   Anna Zaires   and... The Siren by   Kiera Cass   All the meanwhile I've STILL been currently reading Empire of Storms. THIS BOOK IS TAKING ME WAY TOO LONG TO READ. I'm past half way though! 

Prophecy of the Sisters by Michelle Zink My rating: 2 of 5 stars Time for a mini review because... eh. Not bothered. This book isn't worth doing a full review on, I'm sorry. I really want to! Because I read this book for a Blind Reading challenge . But I found it wasn't very interesting. It has a few similarities to Beautiful Creatures in the fantastical family, sister showdown kind of vibe. But it's historical fiction. Was that necessary for the plot? Probably not. I did like the Celtic mythology taking a place in all of the witchery. Would I read on? No. Sorry. Sorry, buddy reader Gav, for making you read this! It wasn't that great, but it met most of the criteria? I guess that's the price then, :/. This was my first assigned reading challenge, I'm not sure if I'd do it again. I like the challenge but when it's books like these, I don't want to do them (-- just for the criteria). View all my revie...
