Valentine's Day Book Recommendations & My Weekend Reads

Today I am going to share my recommendations for your Valentine's weekend to get you into the lovey dovey mood. I will also be sharing what I have been reading to get into V-day spirit!



Contemporary
Losing It : A sexy NA read that will make you lol. I love this book, and it is still my favorite from Cora Carmack 
The Distance Between Us : I just love Kasie West's writing, and it wouldn't be a Valentine's book recommendation list without her on it. 
The Summer I Turned Pretty : Really ANY Jenny Han book would be perfect for this weekend! If you are dreaming about summer, than this is the book series for you. It will be your beach escape. 
Fangirl: With all the exciting news of the new Harry Potter play being published in book form, I know it brings back a lot of Harry Potter memories. Waiting in line for the books, counting down the days to the next release, reading fan fiction like crazy. This book will help you remember that kind of love all over again. 
Fantasy 
Doon: If you still have not read this series NOW IS THE TIME. It is a YA Outlander, and it is such a fun read. There is a little bit of insta love/hate but in the best kind of way! 
StarCrossed : ONE OF MY FAVORITE SERIES EVER!!!! I love this book so much. It has everything I love. Greek mythology, a strong female lead, a sexy boy, and so much more! PLEASE read this series! 
Carry On : Need I say more? 
Sweet Evil : This is a fun series to read when you have a book hangover. It is fun, fast paced, unique, and angsty. I FLEW through this series. 
Paranormal
Wicked: This was such a fun NA read. JLA wrote it.....she pretty much drops the mic every time she finishes writing a book (well she should if she doesn't.) This is such a sexy read, but it does not lack in action and suspense. 
A Court of Thorns and Roses : If you are still waiting to read this book because you are afraid that it will not be as good as Maas' other books...wait no longer my friend! I was SHOCKED at how great this book is, and I am dying for the next one! 
Bloodlines: I love everything about this series. The romance is on FIRE, and it is a nice slow burn. 
Guilty Pleasure (Not recommended for readers under 20)
His Purrfect Mate: Shapeshifters, forbidden love, make for a great guilty pleasure
Obsession: JLA shows us what the Lux series would have been like IF the main characters were adults. SOOOO sexy! 



What I am Reading: 
The One
I have bee listening to The Elite and now The One, and I am LOVING it. 
Tempted by Fire
I am not far into this one yet, but hopefully I will finish it today. 


What are you guys reading this weekend? If you are wanting ideas for your Valentine's Date that are book related, then head on over to my last post. I have a lot of ideas for you and your loved one! Let me know what your recommendations are, and if you will be reading any of these books! 
I hope you all have a great Valentine's Day! 
Happy Reading Y'all, 
Ashley

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
