Happy Wednesday, readers! I’m back, so be expecting daily updates again, and thank you all so much for all of your condolences and nice notes. I hope everyone took a moment to hug their loved ones this week. I thought today would be a great day to come back, because American Horror Story (season 2)… Continue reading TV Time: American Horror Story: Asylum
Inspirational Meet: Kristine Andersen
I know I haven’t posted the past few days even though I’ve promised to post every day, but I’m grieving at the moment. Unfortunately, this week, I lost a very dear loved one. My roommate since 2009, Kristine Andersen, passed away Sunday, and I thought I could dedicate this post to her wonderful life and… Continue reading Inspirational Meet: Kristine Andersen
Inspirational Meet: Grace Griffin
As some of my regulars probably already noticed, I have a new photo for my site, and I am very excited to share the inspiring photographer behind the camera. Grace Griffin, the photographer, is an amazing woman—she’s found her passion and is following her dreams at the age of 21. As you will read in… Continue reading Inspirational Meet: Grace Griffin
TV Time: Gossip Girl
Considering I’ve been watching this show since 2007, and I started reading the book series in 2002, I cannot believe the last season is premiering tomorrow night! Based on the best selling YA series by Cecily von Ziegesar, Gossip Girl is a drama-filled soap about the Upper East Side—who’s rich and who’s richer. Although the… Continue reading TV Time: Gossip Girl
Movie Mention: Interview with the Vampire
Now that I’ve given you all a great YA Halloween read, I thought I’d suggest a good Halloween movie. (But I wouldn’t clarify it as YA, because it is more on the violent side). Everyone nowadays seems to be in the vampire craze (or at least was in it at some moment). I have… Continue reading Movie Mention: Interview with the Vampire
Relax & Read: The Forest of Hands and Teeth
If you’re anything like me, the month of October is filled with pumpkin spiced lattes, witchy movies, cuddling with your black cat (okay, maybe not this one), and reading spooky novels that haunt your dreams. However, sometimes I’m not in the mood to read or watch something truly terrifying, but I do love reading novels… Continue reading Relax & Read: The Forest of Hands and Teeth
Movie Mention: Looper
Afternoon, readers! I saw Looper last night, so I thought I'd give my opinion on this science-fiction thriller. In the future, it's nearly impossible to get rid of bodies, so the mob uses loopers--trained assassins that kill and dispose of whomever the mob sends backwards in time. Shockingly Joe, being one of these men, gets his loop closed… Continue reading Movie Mention: Looper
Website Wonders: Wattpad.com
I've officially had this website for one week now, and it's been an adventure! So far I've had over 1,000 hits and followers and lots of wonderful emails, asking questions and/or fellow writers wanting to know me. (If you've read my About Me page then you know I LOVE talking to new people!). But I thought… Continue reading Website Wonders: Wattpad.com
Relax & Read: The Mortal Instruments
Reading can get expensive sometimes! Especially when you LOVE writing inside the books like I do, because you have to own every one of them. But, hey, at least you get to keep them forever! (I think I may need a bigger bookshelf.) Anyway…I thought I’d excite everyone by reminding them that the paperback version… Continue reading Relax & Read: The Mortal Instruments
Relax & Read: Embrace
Happy October, readers! As promised on my very first post (which, by the way, I’ve had a WONDERFUL time with all of you since then) here’s my review of Jessica Shirvington’s YA novel, Embrace: What better way to celebrate the month of October but with the sinister romance of an angel? Violet Eden, a seventeen-year-old… Continue reading Relax & Read: Embrace
