Book Review

Hey guys! Long time no chat! I plan on posting more consistently soon, things have been kind of hectic lately.

But real quickly, I just wanted to tell you my favorite book! I've been rereading it lately because I haven't really been able to pick up a new title in a while.

The Perks Of Being a Wallflower is my favorite book in the whole wide world. I found it way before I started high school and Charlie was the most relatable character and thinker. Now as a senior I've been rereading it over and over and I read it differently now. I'm on the Sam and Patrick side of things now. And I am so happy about it. I can't believe I've made it this far!

Long story short. Best book ever. Also great movie. Read it if for some reason you've been in a hole for your entire life. If you love this book to tell me! Comment your favorite parts and we can talk about it!!

Book Review:


THE FEVER CODE. Oh my gosh. I won't spoil anything in my review. The book was amazing! I wanted to tear through it in a day but It's been a busy few weeks. James Dashner, I can't believe that ending I have so many more questions now!! It was a crazy idea that you will all have to read for yourselves. It was the same narration and characters we all know and love from the initial trilogy. It was really great because it was a way for the story to continue without overusing it and spinning off too much. It was really well done and it only reminded me of how much I love love love these books. I'm so happy this book exists and for the die hard fans it is definitely worth the read. Hopefully it will hold you off until The Death Cure movie release. Love you so much Dylan :'(
An exciting read, worth every penny.

Do You Actually Have Good Taste In Books?







Curtesy of the wonderful Buzzfeed, I thought I would take a second and let you get to know me a little bit as a reader! :)
  • Hardback or Paperback? Paperback! Saves me tons of money and I like the aesthetic a little bit better on my shelves. I'll buy a hardcover if it's a new book or one of deep significance to me. Otherwise, it's a lot easier to just go with paperback. And since I have not yet moved on to using my kindle for all of my reading, a paperback book is a near second on the list of types of books that are easy to lug around.
  • Harry Potter or Lord of The Rings? HARRY POTTER THE BOY WHO LIVED>>>>> LOTR. I've given LOTR a try many times but Harry Potter was an effortless read and it's just one of my favorite things in the world. I'm addicted to the HP world. (I'm a Slytherin btw! Comment your house!)
  • The smell of an old book or the smell of a new book? The smell of a new book. Nothing beats it. I've always said they should sell candles with that smell. They'd make a fortune off of me. 
  • Stephen King or RL Stine? I don't read much of either of these guys. But doesn't Stephen King beat all? 
  • Sci-Fi or Fantasy? Oh god I love both! Agh!!!!!!! But probably Sci-Fi just because of my love for outer space. Otherwise fantasy stuff is my shit. Actually, fantasy stuff that takes place in outer space. That is my shit. 
  • Reading indoors or outdoors? Indoors. Not that I don't love reading outside. It's actually probably definitely better than reading inside most of the time. But I just forget to go outside. And there isn't many beautiful reading spots around me anyway. 
  • Twilight or 50 Shades of Grey? Twilight!! Yes I actually love Twilight. Let me live. I love rereading it during the fall months. 
  • Shop online or from a local book store? I always shop in stores unless I'm preordering a new title. 
  • The Great Gatsby or The Catcher In The Rye? Both made my life so much better. But Fitzgerald stole my heart with his imagery. The most tragically beautiful novel I've ever read. I have the whole book highlighted. 
  • Fiction or Nonfiction? Fiction. But I do love some David Foster Wallace Nonfiction. 
  • Bookmarks or dog-earing? Bookmarks. I have a book full of bookmarks is that weird? Like, that's where I keep them all. And when I start a new book I open my bookmark book and pick one! Anyone else do that?
  • Dr. Seuss or Roald Dahl? Love both but Roald Dahl! Love his stories. Timeless.
  • E-Book or Audio Book? E-Book! I lose focus too easily with audio. Neither or these will ever top the sound of page flipping though. 

And there you have it :) I wanted to make this more personal and let you see what I look like/learn a little about me!
