HUNGER GAMES

Secret Life of Bees


Looking for a book that will impress parents, teachers, friends... and is still good? Well this inspiring historical fiction novel is the perfect book. Though it is used in many schools as summer reading I absolutely loved it. AND could relate to it since the narrator is a fourteen year old girl. Kind of a heavy book so if you read gossipy types of books then I wouldn't suggest this.

This is the story of a young girl in South Carolina who runs away from an abusive father and a harsh past. Along with black housekeeper Rosaleen, she adventures off to find out about her deceased mother's past. Woven into the time of 1964, we see racism and segregation through a young girls eyes. As she meets the Boatwright family, she begins to find faith and love in places she never thought she would.

Recently Out...

Linger - The sequel to Maggie Stiefvaters book Shiver.

BN Synopsis: In Maggie Stiefvater's Shiver, Grace and Sam found each other. Now, in Linger, they must fight to be together. For Grace, this means defying her parents and keeping a very dangerous secret about her own well-being. For Sam, this means grappling with his werewolf past . . . and figuring out a way to survive into the future. Add into the mix a new wolf named Cole, whose own past has the potential to destroy the whole pack. And Isabelle, who already lost her brother to the wolves . . . and is nonetheless drawn to Cole. At turns harrowing and euphoric, Linger is a spellbinding love story that explores both sides of love - the light and the dark, the warm and the cold - in a way you will never forget.

Kissed by an Angel


Kissed by an Angel is the perfect mix of a love story and a mystery novel. The book itself is made of three books, which seems intimidating and long, but is perfect for days at the beach and time consuming plane rides. This story also takes a mystical turn since it involves angels, a lot of angels. There are some creepy moments as well, so if you get scared easily I would reccomend you not to read this book at night when your home alone;) All in all, I thought this book was pretty darn good and couldn't put it down. 

Ivy had finally found the perfect guy when she met Tristan. Living in a daze, she thanked her angels for sending her such a great guy. But their blooming love blinds Ivy from reality, someone is out her. Later, a car accident devastatingly takes Tristan away, as well as her faith in angels just when she needs them most. Something's lurking in the shadows, and this time Ivy is the target. 

Shout out: BECCA SNOW, you've gave me like what? a bajillion recommendations? All of them have been great. Including this one ^. Thanks for helping me fill up my blog:) Love you tons. xx

Eclipse the Movie

 I am assuming by now that pretty much everyone has seen this movie already. ESPECIALLY you Twihards. But if you have not then head over to the movie theater right now. If you haven't read the books and frankely don't even like the movies or Rob Pats hobo hair then let me tell you - go anyway! Its worth the money just to see Taylor Lautner's hot bod. Eclipse also happens to be my favorite book of the series so this was uber exciting. My favorite scene in the series is the tent scene, which I think they did a great job of recreating on the big screne. I was cracking up!
Cant wait for the next one!
