Day 4 of the 35 Day Blogger Challenge

We're on day 4 and today's topic is ...

A Book That Made You Happy.

As soon as I read this topic I knew what book choose; This is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith. Is that  a little too cliche? Yeah probably, but seriously guys this book is so loveable! I cheesy smiled so many times while reading. You can see my actual review HERE and I'll just  leave you with this. . .



What book made you happy?

Book Blogging Challenge Day 3!

So, I'm already a day behind, almost 2 days behind now, thanks to my laptop dying yesterday. It was such a trooper on Sunday too. We worked all day together and got so much accomplished, but i guess it had had enough of my shenanigans and decided it would rather be a glorified brick. Way to go laptop... but no worries after a sot to the heart and my bank account we're back in business.

So without firther ado, here is Day 3 of the 35 Day Book Blogging Challenge! You can find out all about the challenge by going to the Book Blogging Challenge page.

Today's topic:
What is your favorite series and your favorite book from that series?


Ooo! Topic why you gotta be so picky?! Ugh!
So, one of my favorite series that is actually completed and I have read all the books and they all live happily on my shelf is the Hush, Hush saga by Becca Fitzpatrick.

 Hush, Hush (Hush, Hush, #1)  Crescendo (Hush, Hush, #2) Silence (Hush, Hush, #3) Finale (Hush, Hush, #4)


I love this series. I love Nora. I love Patch. Actually, at the moment I can't think of anything I don't like about the series. I'm sure there is, but... I'm drawing a blank. This is one of the few series where I enjoyed every book and it didn't feel like there was a slump in the middle or that any of the books were written for filler (I'm looking at you Origin in the Lux series!)
    The first book has got to be my favorite as is the case with a lot of book series. It's the first, my first love, the one that starts it all so it's naturally my favorite. Hush, Hush is also my favorite out of the four becuase of the relationship (or lack there of) between Patch and Nora. And Patch is such a bad a**, well he's still that way through out the books, but the first he seems a little more... wicked.

What about you? What's your favorite series and your favorite book from that series?

35 Day Book Blogging Challenge! Day 1

So I decided in order to get into the habit of writing and posting more often I would try the 30 Day Book Blogging Challenge.Yes, the title does say 35 Day. That's because when searching for the 30 Day challenge I came across a couple different ones and I thought, Hey! Let's kick this up a notch and put them together! Actually it was more me being indecisive... So I combined the lists mushed a few topics together and added an xtra question or two and 35 is what i ended up with. You can see the complete list of topics for each day along with links to original lists and to past topics once they've been posted on the Book Blogging Challenge page.


Day 1: The Best Book You Read Last Year

The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey. Hands down.

The 5th Wave (The Fifth Wave, #1)  

After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one.

Now, it’s the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth’s last survivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie’s only hope for rescuing her brother—or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up.



       I read some really good books in 2013; Shades of Earth by Beth Revis, Arclight by Josin McQuein, The Rithmatist by Brandon Sanderson, Unbreakable by Kami Garcia, All Our Yesterdays by Cristin Terrill (just to name a few); but the BEST book I read is The 5the Wave. Absolutely no contest there.This book is freaking AMAZING!  From the writing to the characters to the plot... Ugh! I love it. If you haven't read it, you need to because it is awesome. I don't want to tell you anything about it for fear of ruining a single part of it, but I will say I had a major book hangover and wanted to re-read it immediately after finishing it. I can't wait for book two, The Infinite Sea due out this September.

What was the best book you read last year? Curious minds want to know.
