Books I got this week In the mail: The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey – SIGNED The Infinite Sea by Rick Yancey – SIGNED The Winner’s Curse by Marie Rutkoski – SIGNED, and personalized I ordered these from Anderson’s Bookshop after seeing the upcoming events! I’m a little bummed that they weren’t able to get my Rick Yancey books personalized, but oh well =/ From the publisher: Silverblind by Tina Connolly So, um…I DNFed Ironskin. I received Copperhead (book […]
Yep, that’s right. Quadruplets. A while back, Octavia did a discussion about book twins (I’m hers :D). I’m going to do my own, expanding on that because I now have 3 of them! Book Quadruplet #1 Ashley @ Nose Graze. Ashley was my first ever book twin! Out of all of them, I think her and I have the most similar tastes. For a couple of years now she’s always been the first place I go when I want to decide whether or […]
I have to say that this book is one of the few sequels I’ve read this year that was just as good as the first book! The mystery aspect of this book rocked! It made for very fast pacing, keeping you flipping pages as fast as you can to find out what happens next. I do have to say that I found this one a tad predictable (whereas I didn’t figure out the first one!). But that didn’t make the journey […]
Full list of Life of a Blogger topics. Last week’s topic: Languages This week’s topic: Clothing Topic suggested by Rebecca @ Vicariously! I’m not a big fashion person. At all.

Not that I’m a slob or anything…I don’t go out in public in pajamas, or freaking leggings (no offense if any of you do, but I’m not a fan of it). But I have been known to wear […]
I want to reply to every single comment I get. I really do. But I just…don’t. What happens the most is: I look at a comment on my blog. I can’t think of anything to reply other than “thank you” or some lame agreement, not amounting to more than a sentence, so I don’t reply. Instead I go to my commenter’s blog…but then I can’t find anything that I have any thoughts about that are worth commenting either. So I just…don’t….comment. Is that bad? While I want to acknowledge every […]
I loooved Not a Drop to Drink. I gave it 4.5 heartbeats in my review (the link is below if you want to see it). I’m sad to say that this one didn’t quite live up to the first book. But, I did still enjoy it. The pacing was a tad painful at first. I had a lot of trouble getting into it, despite how excited I was to read it. It didn’t start picking up until after 35%, but after that […]
