Tea Of The Week




On a cold day nothing is better than sitting by the fireplace, with a blanket, a good book, and a nice hot cup of tea. This week has been pretty cold and extremely windy so I wanted a tea that was rich and warm. Stash's Chai Spice Black Tea is what has been hitting the spot this week. This tea is AMAZING it is very flavorful and is what I expect from a chai. The spices are very potent it is not a subtle tea so if you don't like the taste of ginger, cinnamon, cloves, spices similar to them, then please do not try this tea.
I love me some tea, but I am NOT one of those people who can drink tea plain. For this specific tea I love to let it cool a little bit than put some honey in it, and a little bit of fresh lemon juice. If I have a day that I feel like I am getting a little sick I will put some fresh ginger in it and it really gives it a nice kick. If you like your chai to be more of a creamy tea than milk and stevia go great with this tea and will give it that sweet thicker taste you are hoping for. I can always find this tea at my local grocery store, but if for some reason you can’t I will post a link for you guys because trust me it’s a great tea. It is more expensive online than it is at the grocery story I will put that out there, but if you cannot find it at the store I would recommend ordering it because its that good. I must tell you that I will be doing a recipe post for a pumpkin spice chai tea that will go PERFECT with a book this time of year!

Back to School: Percy Jackson Style

As any fangirl or fanboy wherever you go you want to show your love of books. Being lovers of books we are a unique kind. We crush over fictional characters, they become our best friends, when they hurt we hurt. Books are our escape, our passion, our fun, hobby, friend, books are our lives. Pride comes with being a book nerd and it's something you should embrace. These books we love sometimes take over. We love them so much we want to be a part of that world. I wanted to help find ways for you to always feel close to your favorite books and characters. This week I wanted to do Percy Jackson because I mean who doesn't like Percy Jackson?! These outfits are loosely inspired by some of the loved characters from The Percy Jackson series or the book covers. I stayed on pinterest for hours (shocker right?) to find outfits that have simple pieces that you can find in your closet or wouldn't be hard to find for a good price at stores. I also wanted to find outfits that...

BACK TO SCHOOL: Schools in Books

This week on Back to School I wanted to help you guys feel in sync with some great characters. I wanted to pick some books for you guys that I love that take place in school environments. Now school will not be the main point or problem these characters go through, but they do go through some of the tough situations and stress you guys do at school. Some characters live on campus and deal with the drama of being independent for the first time, missing home, the struggle of finding who they truly are, drama, and parties. College is a hard time for many people because you are finding your own self on your own terms. Mommy and daddy aren't there to tell you what to do or how to act. Some struggle while others flourish.   I HAD to put girls in this post that loved to learn and enjoyed the structure of school. I sometimes forget that learning can be looked at on a bright note. It's hard to remember that when you have 5 gazillion papers to write. I picked two girls I thought...

Review: Becoming Alpha by Aileen Erin

Title: Becoming Alpha  Author: Aileen Erin  Genre: Paranormal Fantasy  Pages: 267 Goodreads Overall Rating: 4.11 Published:  December 17th, 2013 by Ink Monster, LLC   My Rating:  I can’t do that. I can’t turn my emotions off and on like that. I’m either all in or all out. And if you can’t do that—if I don’t come first, then for God’s sake, leave me alone. Becoming Alpha is the true definition of YA paranormal fantasy and I devoured it. Erin took troupes that are known in YA and ran with them in fun, plausible, and exciting ways while taking her own spin on them. I sped through this book and right after I downloaded the next book in the series because I couldn't wait for the two-day shipping of the physical book.  At the beginning of the book, we meet our main character Tessa and her family. Tessa has an unusual gift and it has marked her as the odd girl out at and causing her to feel isolated. With her family...
