My Top 10 All-Time Favorite Book Series!

Image
Hi there! It’s been a while since I posted something here (okay, like five days, but still), and I am sorry, but I was busy being lazy. Anyhow, today I thought I would share with you my all-time favorite book series! I didn't think of it as I picked them, but I have discovered that every one of them is YAs with either a hint of fantasy, paranormality, or sci-fi. (This is all spoiler free, so it's okay if you haven't read these books yet!) Without further ado, here they are: Numero DIEZ: (yes, I have attended the Spanish classes in school, good kid right here← ) Don’t hate me for this. . .but it has to be The Twilight Saga by Stephanie Meyer . Stay with me! I know there are a lot of people out there hating on this series, calling it a cheesy piece of crap with bad character development and a screwed-up romance. . .and yes, I agree. I agree I agree I agree. However , I DIDN’T when my twelve-year-old self first read them. My twelve-year-old self had never experie...

The Darkest Minds TRAILER Review

Image
Firstly: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! omgomgomgomgitisfinallyhappeningmydreamiscomingtrueIcan'tbelievethisIamsososososoexcited Secondly: Full Trailer Okay. . .how many times have I watched this trailer now? I've lost count, but the amount is probably leaning toward 50, if not more. I am so incredibly excited for this movie and it looks so good! (Hi, bye the way<3) So, as you can tell, I am a really big fan of The Darkest Minds book series , and now that it is being turned into a movie, I would consider myself as THE most anticipative fan out there. After watching the trailer, I'm over the moon! One word to describe it: EPIC I loved it, it looked so cool. Not of the cheap quality I was afraid it would be at all. On Monday, the 'first look' pictures were released on EW's website (you can find the article  here ), and the first thing that struck me while taking a look at them was how. . . gaily the filter was?

Book Review: Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi

Image
As the title reads, this post will be a review of the first book in the Shatter Me series by Tahereh Mafi. The first part will be spoiler free, followed by a second part which will contain spoilers. Don't worry: I will inform you when the non-spoilery part ends! Firstly, I want to say that I am proud of myself for finally being able to say that I have read this book.  I had dipped into a kind of reading slump for some months, not feeling like reading anything at all (studying was hell), but I would say Shatter Me definitely cured it, and I look forward to reading the remaining (I think 6 in total?) books! This series  has been on my 'to read'-list for quite  some time now , and to be able to tick the first one off as 'read' felt great. Like an itch that I could finally reach. I have officially started my journey through the Shatter Me series, and boy  am I prepared to go through all the feels that follows, including probably getting my heart ripped out at some p...

Who Am I?

I'm back! This is my second update here, and I must say that so far I am really enjoying this blog-thing! I was thinking about it all day in school today, couldn’t focus on my Spanish essay at all. Anyways, the reason I want to write another post is because I thought I should tell a little about myself! I’m just going to jump straight into it, so here goes. My name will be kept a secret, but I go by the pseudonym E. I am a sixteen-year-old girl who tries her best to go fully vegan, but it’s hard with zero cooking skills and two bacon-loving parents (ugh). My hair becomes frizzy all. The. Time. I hate it, because as soon as the tiniest amount of humidity comes in contact with my hair — I swear, you wouldn’t be able to tell me apart from a polish chicken (google it and you’ll know what I mean). I am also a sucker for memes. They’re the best. Things I enjoy: reading, drawing, writing, my own company, watching tv shows. . .my cat (can you 'enjoy' a cat?). Things I do NOT e...

The Darkest Minds Movie (my blog debut!)

Image
Oh. My. Lord . I stayed up allllll night last night creating this blog, and it got so late I didn't even get the chance to post something! Then I had to go to school (I was a wreck -- go to bed early on weekdays, kids) so I couldn't do it in the morning or during the day. Not until now, 4:30 pm in the afternoon, do I finally get to write my first ever blog post. So. . .hey there! I suppose I should start with introducing myself. I'm E, and I am a huge dork/nerd/fangirl. I like to draw (or more specifically, I create little doodles all over my school books. I'm not very good at it). I also have an obsession with tv series such as Riverdale, Black Mirror, Stranger Things, Teen Wolf, Gilmore Girls and The 100, to name a few . I am a booknerd, but unfortunately my fellow family members and friends don't share the same love for books with me (they see reading as staring at a dead piece of wood with ink pressed onto it). That is sort of why I created this blog;...
