Book Worm

Well it has been a while thats for sure. Whoops. I thought that with not having a job anymore I'd have so much time to work on my blog and make it better but I've actually been quite busy. A lot more busy then I thought I'd be, which is a good thing but seems as though my my blog has suffered. I do have some exciting things I have been working on and hopefully after I've polished that up I will post it on here to share with all of you! And this isn't one of those things where I say I'll do it and I actually don't. I've started working on this project and I intend for it to be an ongoing thing. I'll stop talking about something you don't know about now and start with what I wanted this blog post to actually be about!

BOOOOOOOOKS!!!!!!!!

The last book I read was 'Finale' which is part of a book series by Becca Fitzpatrick. It's a collection of 4 books in order from start to finish- Hush Hush, Crescendo, Silence and Finale. I love book series with 4 books. 5 is almost overkill but 4 is perfect. 4 allows you to connect with the characters, to fall in love with them, then hate them and then fall in love with them all over again. This series follows two lovers Nora and Patch, don't you just love that name?! Sex in a name mmmm mmmmm. It's one of those super natural books, ficitional, and just all around cute. It's a very cute story and I believe all ages can connect with it. Me being 25 loved it, and my mom being 29 ( ;)  ) loved it.




The book I finished before 'Finale' was 'City of Lost Souls' by Cassandra Clare. This book is part of a book series that is not yet finished called 'The Mortal Instruments'. This book was number 5 in a 6 book series. And like I said I'm more of a 4 book tap out and it was very difficult to get through 'City of Lost Souls' and it saddens me to say this. I think I started this book and then half a year later finally picked it up to finish it but then didn't and then 3 months later actually finished it. Sometimes my attention span isn't so great so don't let my reading pattern reflect your decision to pick up these books. This book was so great, it wasn't that I didn't love it or anything it was just because of life I guess. It didn't drag on and I was always interested in it, and bonus (!) the first book has been made into a movie and will be out soon!!! I cannot wait to see it, you have no idea!!! So go pick up that first book so you can finish it before the movie cuz lets face it, the books are always better ;) 




Also I'd like to make a special mention to the book series also by Cassandra Clare called 'The Infernal Devices'. Thise series is 3 books that will capture your heart, suck you into their world and surround you with goosebumpy feelings. These have to be my all time favorite books. While reading the first book I actually noticed myself writing more like they talk in the book, it was affecting me in ways I hadn't expected. I was transforming my vocabulary to make it more proper and I loved it! It follows a sort of love triangle between Tessa, Will and Jem. I wont even try to explain it, just read the books and you can get sucked in as I did and just enjoy the journey :) 





I know that it's summer and you may not want to be reading but just pick these up to read for winter then! I can hear my mom lecturing me now " you don't read in summer! Go outside!!! Plenty of time to read in winter." No matter the season you read them, just make sure that you do!
