Friday Reads 1/17/2014

This Friday  This weekend, i will be finishing up Just One Day By Gale Forman. I started two days ago and am almost done. I feel like this is a required read for everyone and this is my first Gayle Forman book, so that's saying a lot.
Next up is Ready Player One By Ernest Cline. I just now found this after looking for it forever at the library, and I'm pretty sure I'll pick this up after Just One Day.
Last, but not least is This Song Will Save Your Life By Leila Sales. I don't know much about this book. I've seen it on my Amazon Recommendations and around BookTube a lot and just decided to get it. I think I'll enjoy it though.
Anyway, that's what I'm reading. Let me  know what you're reading. Have a great weekend!!!

Hey guys!!! Sorry I’ve been gone a while. School has been hectic. So today I justwant to tell you about what I’m going to be reading over the weekend. First is Lullaby by Amanda Hocking, second book in the Watersong Series.  Second is Onxy by Jennifer L. Armentrout, the second book in the Lux series. I'm already halfway through it. Daemon Black is absolute perfection.  Third is Grendel by John Gardner. I'll be reading this for English class and need to read 5 or 6 chapters by Wednesday.  After that is Identity Theft by Anna Davies, Looking for Alaska by John Green, and finally, I'll be finishing Tiger's Quest by Colleen Houck. That's a lot of books. But that's only what I plan on reading. I'm pretty sure that I'm not going to able to finish all of them. That's pretty much all I have to say guys!!! Have a great weekend!!!

Book Character Betrayal Tag (By BooKss101)

    Ok, so this tag was originally created by BookTuber Miranda of BooKss101 when she reached 500 subscribers!!!! Congratulations Miranda if you're reading this!!! I saw her do this and thought, "This seems fun. There are some characters that I don’t like at all.”  But I want to change it up just a little. Instead of just book characters, I'm also going to use characters from TV shows because there are  A LOT of characters on TV that I don't  like that much. Here are the scenarios:
     
1) You are at a party playing a game of Spin the Bottle. The bottle lands on you and your dream fictional character partner. You lean in to give a kiss to your dream fictional character partner, while all the while their actual girlfriend/ boyfriend is watching. Which character are you betraying in order to get a kiss from the character of your dreams?
          
       The obvious answer is Tessa from the Infernal Devices Trilogy. I would betray her in a heartbeat in order to kiss Will. I mean come on....He's Will Herondale. Enough said.


2)You just watched Mean Girls and saw Regina George being pushed in front of the bus by Katie. Unlike Mean Girls, you do not feel guilty about pushing a character in front of a bus. Which character would you push in front of a bus? (they are still alive and well after).

      I would push Kelsey from the Tiger's Saga by Colleen Houck.  Kelsey is just an irritating, annoying, and purposefully awkward character. I'd push her in a heartbeat. No need to think about it.


3) It is a life or death situation. You are trapped with a character you hate in the middle of the bush. Suddenly, as you keep walking the woods begin to look familiar and you know the way out. You call it a break for the day and you and the character you hate decide to call it a night. That night you leave sneaking away from the character leaving them to find their own way out. Which character do you betray?
    
      I would leave Bella from Twilight. Don't get me wrong, I love Twilight. There are just some moments where she can get a bit annoying. But don't worry, if she gets lost she can just lay down on the ground and the werewolves will find her.

4) You are trapped in a hole and above you lies the only escape. You ask the character you are trapped with for a lift so you can get out. You tell them when you get out of the whole you will help them out. You make it out of the hole and walk away not helping the character still trapped inside the hole. Which character do you betray?

      Elena from The Vampire Diaries the TV show, not the book. She's not irritating in the book. It's as if the people who worked on the show just wanted to make her irritating and make us hate her, because obviously, nothing terrible is going to happen to her because she's the main character. She's just SOOO irritating in the show. She can't make up her mind about anything and she's always whining about EVERYTHING. "But Stephen. But Damon. I love you both. I can't choose."  Bitch please. Is it really that hard??? No. It's not. Stop overthinking everything.

5) You are in an argument with the character you hate when BANG...you are surrounded by zombies, vampires and wolves. You and this character have to unite to fend off these creatures. You then realize you have magic dust in your pocket that a Warlock gave to you that will help you get out of any situation. You use it and suddenly find yourself in a luxurious environment sipping a drink you love. Which character would you leave to fend for themselves?

     America from The Selection. She too is irritating and can't seem to make up her mind.



      Alright!!! So this tag. It was so much fun to do. I don't know who to tag so..... *Awkwardness* Congratulations again to Miranda for reaching 500 subscribers!!! Got to go guys. Bye!!!!

Friday Reads 8/16/2013

      Alright Guys!!!! So today I'm going to be doing my first Friday Reads on this blog. For those of you who might not know what Friday Reads is, all you're basically doing is telling what you're going to be reading for the weekend. So this weekend, I will be reading The Human Stain by Philip Roth. I do not like this book at all. It's terrible and absolutely boring, but I have to read it for school.  Yay. *That was sarcasm.*
       The next book that I hope to actually read is The Archived by Victoria Schwab. This book has had so much hype in the BookTube community that when I saw it in the library, I ran to pick it up when I saw it on display.  I have read a few pages of this, but I don’t think that I’m going to continue it until I finish The Human Stain. I only have about a week to finish it. Yeah, so those are my books for my Friday Reads. One boring ass book and one book that I’m super excited to read. Yeah, okay, so…..bye!!!
