Back to School: Recommendations & Rereading Books.

This BACK TO SCHOOL segment I have started is really exciting for me. I have a outfit inspired Percy Jackson style post if you want to check that out, and there are going to be more to come. I want to help you guys with the stress of school the best way I know how. There is nothing worse then getting a book and start reading and it letting you down or you just cant get into it. In times like this I like to revert to my favorite books. Go and grab a book you already know you love and that makes you laugh. You haven't read it in awhile and chances are you remember the major parts of the books, but you don't remember it all. There are always specific lines in your favorite books that made you love and treasure that book. Most of the time it is little things that add up that made you love it, and little things are easily forgotten at times. If you are one of the people who do not like to reread books then don't fear. I am going to show you some of my favorite books and hopefully you can find a new favorite =) * I am not showing some of my favorites because they are so popular ex: Percy Jackson, The Infernal Devices series, Harry Potter,  Anna and the French Kiss, Throne of Glass, etc*
  • IF you are one of those people who do not reread books and want some suggestions then here are SOME of my favorite books.
Starcrossed
If you want to laugh out loud then I HIGHLY recommend this YA book. I loved every second of this book. I read this when I first started college and if you want honesty here it is. I skipped class to go and get the second book in this trilogy because I couldn't wait I HAD to have it. I do not recommend that I just had to share how desperately I needed it. I NEVER skip if that tells you anything.
 
Half-blood
 
This book is written by Jennifer L. Armentrout for some of you that is all I need to say. Others who have not discovered JLA's writing this is the perfect time to do so. It doesn't matter which book you pick up of hers because you wont be disappointed. She is on of the best authors out there hands down. I loved everything about this series. Alex your main character doesn't need anyone to take care of her. She is starting school too (although it is a different type of school) and she is going through a lot that you maybe too. She has haters, good friends, crushes, a smart mouth, and some awful instructors.....and some sexy ones too. I loved everything about this book it has something for everyone.
 
Pivot Point
This is one of the most incredible and unique book I have ever read. I know people who hate EVERY book, and even they raved about this book. If you are picky about books then this is the one I recommend for you. I cant explain this book too much without giving anything away. Just know that this book is a great escape because it captivates you into their world. Expect the unexpected and get ready for one heck of a ride. This book does have romance but has more of a science fiction suspense kind of book. I LOVE IT!!!
 
Unspoken
It has been soooo long since I read this book, but I can still remember how much I loved it. Kami is smart and witty which I loved. The plot was so suspenseful for me. There were some aspects I saw coming, but mostly I couldn't figure out what was going to happen till the very last page. I haven't read the second book but I feel like I should reread this one before I do.
Let the Sky Fall
I stumbled upon this book by complete coincidence. It was calling for a terrible snow storm and while the lights were flickering I just bought the first books I saw on my nook just so I would have SOMETHING to read incase the lights went out. I am so glad that I got the chance to read this book because it is AMAZING I thought I would be fun to just insert my updates on goodreads while reading this book. Oh and the second books is just as good =)

48.0% "I'm dying over here! My nook died,I ran *yes I really ran. might of almost tripped over the clothes that have not been folded yet becuase I can't stop reading* to get my charger hoping I could get the nook pluged in fast enough so the nook wouldn't die. FAIL!!! Now I have to wait 15 mins before it will turn on, and that feels like 100000000 hours right now!I guess you could say I'm kinda liking this book"

I hope that this helped you guys. What are some of your favorite books to reread? Please let me know so I can add some to my TBR =) Happy reading ya'll

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 could easil

Meet My Book Boyfriends

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created by   The Broke and the Bookish This week:  Top Ten Book Boyfriends/Girlfriends (Which characters do you have crushes on?) Tower of Dawn It's been a long time coming, but I finally gave in to Chaol. He's complex, confusing, dark, and endearing.  Lola and the Boy Next Door Cricket is my sweet boyfriend. He loves Lola for exactly who she is. He never asks her to change, and falls in love with every part of her.  The Raven Boys I refuse to pick. I want them all!  White Hot Kiss I like both men in this book, but if I had to pick, it would be Roth. I just love his attitude. I haven't read the last book. I'm not ready!!!!!!  Clockwork Angel Will is my moody and misunderstood boyfriend.  Touch of Power  Kerrick is the boyfriend that I'm not real sure why I like him, but I keep him around.  The Body Finder Oh Jay my sweet and loyal Jay. I love him with al

Characters I Never Trust

There are certain characters I never trust. If there is a murder, someone out to destroy the main character, and/or mysterious things are happening, it is almost always one of these characters behind it. The overly helpful adult or superior. This could be a teacher or leader that is always there to save you at the last minute. The superior who has all the answer that you need to solve the mystery.  Family member from the love interests side. It may be a mother who thinks the girl isn't good enough for her son or the power hungry father. Shy background/secondary character. The character who is awkward and maybe the friend that is in the circle because of a family link or the circle just feels sorry for them. The shy character who gets looked over and holds a grudge. You gotta watch the quite ones! Characters that come out of no where . The characters who coincidently show up  right before all cray breaks lose. It could be a long time friend that just so happens to be visitin
