bloglovin'

I'm now on Bloglovin'! *happy dance*
I haven't been very active lately, because of school, but i promise that I will be posting more and more now since it's almost summer (now to read all summer romance YA books before summer ends) and I won't be busy, so expect to see a lot more posts!

top ten tuesday: if you liked my life next door by huntley fitzpatrick

 

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme The Broke and Bookish created.
This week's theme is If you like...

If you liked My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick then you will like:


Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson
Like in My Life Next Door, this book features
what it means to have, and to give, a second chance.


Better Off Friends by Elizabeth Eulberg
Better Off Friends is a romance, but it also has the concept of family and how it's not so much as who you are related to, but who you feel comfortable with, much like My Life Next Door.


Faking Normal by Courtney C. Stevens
Alexi in Faking Normal pretends that everything is fine, when it really isn't
and Samantha pretends that the way her family lives, is the way she wants to live.


The Distance Between Us by Kasie West
In The Distance Between Us, Caymen's mom doesn't want her to be dating Xander, then in My Life Next Door, Samantha's mom doesn't want her and Jase together. Star-crossed romance, gotta love it!


Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen
Both books feature boy-next-door figures, and putting your trust in someone else, even when it is a risk.
(And if you enjoy that type of YA romance, look out for On The Fence by Kasie West, out July 1st!)



Well, that's it, folks! Hope you enjoyed this post and
look out for next weeks, Top Ten Tuesday!

bout of books 10

So, I haven't posted in a while. I have been super busy with school, and reading. I'm sorry about that. But, the school year is coming to a close, and that means SUMMER! I will be posting so much more in the upcoming weeks! So, now on to what this post is about.

BOUT OF BOOKS 10! I will be participating in this read-a-thon that starts on May 12th and goes on to May 18th! If you are confused about Bout Of Books, here is the blurb:
The Bout of Books read-a-thon is organized by Amanda @ On a Book Bender and Kelly @ Reading the Paranormal. It is a week long read-a-thon that begins 12:01am Monday, May 12th and runs through Sunday, May 18th in whatever time zone you are in. Bout of Books is low-pressure, and the only reading competition is between you and your usual number of books read in a week. There are challenges, giveaways, and a grand prize, but all of these are completely optional. For all Bout of Books 10 information and updates, be sure to visit the Bout of Books blog. - From the Bout of Books team
I am so excited to participate in this! I can't wait.
You should participate too! It's a great way to get lots of reading done, and it's incredibly fun!
