"Dimitri gave Rose the ultimate choice. But she chose wrong...

After a long and heartbreaking journey to Dimitri's birthplace in Siberia, Rose Hathaway has finally returned to St. Vladimir's-and to her best friend, Lissa. It is nearly graduation, and the girls can't wait for their real lives beyond the Academy's iron gates to begin. But Rose's heart still aches for Dimitri, and she knows he's out there, somewhere.

She failed to kill him when she had the chance. And now her worst fears are about to come true. Dimitri has tasted her blood, and now he is hunting her. And this time he won't rest until Rose joins him... forever."

Okay I did the info about this book a little different since I listened to the audiobook. I used the Audible rating instead of Goodreads, and the hours/length instead of pages. If you guys don't like this then just let me know. I just thought that this would be more relatable. I also did not put a favorite quote because my picks were spoiler lines. In a nutshell I LOVED this audiobook! I have already talked about the narrator and how fantastic I think she is, and it was no different in this book. Now the story in general was GREAT and by far the best book out of the series. I couldn't turn it off. I ignored my family the entire day. Let me paint you a picture. I wake up early, use my audible app so I can listen to the book on my phone. I put my headphones on and enter the vampire world for the next 13 hours. My husband could have had a party, a tornado could of blown through town, my dogs could of tore all my clothes in my closet, and I wouldn't of noticed any of it. I went about doing my daily cleaning, but I feel like I was so captivated in Meads world that I was blind of the world I was living in. Do any of you guys get like that while listening to an audiobook or is it just me?
For me this was the first book in the series that didn't have any parts that were slow. Straight out the gate you are on the edge of your seat because of the note Rose got at the end of the last book. And let me tell you friends you stay on the edge of your seat the entire time. I was literally waiting for Dimitri to just pop out of the blue like a big bad wolf. I cant tell you how anything happens but man was it interesting. Heck I will give you a small hint: There are twist and turns and some of them are going to leave some of you very happy and some of ya'll are going to probably be mad. Personally I didn't mind any of Meads choices I saw where she was going with them. Writing this review is difficult because I want to spoil you guys on everything! All that happens is so jaw dropping amazing that I just want to share my feelings on all of them. I may write a spoiler review just talking about my favorite parts and the shocking moments. If you guys would like that just let me know =) If you cant tell I really enjoyed this book, and was pleasantly surprised by how much the story lines and characters improved for me. Was this your guys favorite books of the series? Let me know your thoughts on everything that happens =) I love when ya'll leave comments.

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...
