Audiobook Review: Red Queen

  Title: Red Queen Series: Red Queen #1 Author: Victoria Aveyard Narrator: Amanda Dolan Overall Goodreads Rating: 4.10 Length of Audiobook:   12 hrs and 40 mins Published: February 10th 2015 by Orion My Rating: 4.5/5 Stars        IN A NUTSHELL First do you see what I did here?

This book was fast paced and had so much twist that I didn't see coming at all! I can no

The reason I write a blog is to help others not only find their next great read, but to share my thoughts and feelings. I feel like I am helping others even if it is just finding a book they love. What I am going through may be something that you guys are going through as well, and maybe hearing my story will help you know there is someone else out there going through what you are and can relate to your struggle. In middle school I was bullied for my weight. I was overweight and no matter what I did I just couldn't lose the weight. People constantly made fun of me and at one point in time a boy posted a picture of miss. piggy on my locker. It was a very hard time for me.
