Differences between the Harry Potter books & movies that pissed me off the most

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on August 11, 2016 | 9 Comments

I recently had a Harry Potter marathon with my boyfriend in which we watched one movie every night for 8 days, and even though I’ve seen the movies several times, I still can’t help but think about all of the amazing little things from the book that were left out.

Why Being Inactive Sucks

Posted by Jessi (Geo) on June 30, 2016 | 17 Comments

Participate in at least two readathons. This shouldn’t be too hard – Bout of Books and Beat the Heat! Catch up on review copies. For a while there, I was crazy swamped with review copies. I’ve been doing great lately, though! My NetGalley ratio […]
