Book Haul!

Hello again internet! 

Today i actually had time to sit down and make another YouTube video. Finally! I am so glad that my degree has finished so that i can get back into the swing of things when it comes to my blog and YouTube :D

I thought i'd ease myself back into the YouTube world with a book haul! Most of these books probably shouldn't have been bought seeing as i put myself on a book buying ban...but oh well! 

Here we go! 



See you next time!

Taylor Swift Book Tag!

Hello there internet!

If there is one thing i love more than books, it's Taylor Swift's music! So when i saw there was a tag combining the two, i knew i had to get in on that!

I am so freaking excited about this, so let's get started!!

1 -We are never ever getting back together - pick a book or series that you were pretty sure you were in love with, but then wanted to break up with.

I'm going to go for The Distance Between Us by Kasie West. I really did enjoy this book while i was reading it, but then it got to the end and it seemed like everything just went down hill, so i think i'll have to break up with it.

2 - Red - pick a book with a RED cover


This is pretty much the only Red book i could think of.

3 - The Best Day - pick a book that makes you feel nostalgic.

This is the bear by Sarah Hayes. My dad used to read this to me every night before i went to bed when i was little, it makes me very nostalgic.

4 - Love Story - pick a book with forbidden love.

Is it too obvious to go with Forbidden...nah i'm going to go with Forbidden, it has a love story between a brother and a sister...

5 - I Knew You Were Trouble - pick a book with a bad character you couldn't help but love

City of Heavenly Fire, i bloody love Sebastian, and he is so horrible but i can't help but love him.

6 - Innocent - pick a book that someone ruined the ending of.

Allegiant. I think most people had the ending of this ruined, but seeing as i found out about it before i had even started Divergent, the whole series just kind of got ruined.

7 - Everything Has Changed - pick a character from a book who goes through extensive character development.

I'm going to go through Alec from The Mortal Instruments. Alec <3

8 - You Belong With Me - pick your most anticipated book release.

Sway by Kat Spears, oh man am i excited for that book!!

9 - Forever and Always - pick your favourite book couple.

Isabelle and Simon or Alec and Magnus from TMI. <3

10 - Come Back, Be Here - pick the book you would least like to lend out, for fear of missing it too much.

Harry Potter. Any of them, especially Chamber of Secrets because that one's signed by Fred and George, but i don't think i could ever lend those books out.

11 - Teardrops on my Guitar - pick a book that made you cry a lot.

Between the Lives. Oh man did that book make me cry.

12 - Shake it Off - a book that you love so much, you just shake off the haters.

Catcher in the Rye. A lot of people slag this book off, but i absolutely love it!

My Stephen King Mission

Hello internet!

So you might notice link at the top of my blog that says 'Stephen King' and i thought i'd write a little post explaining what that's all about!

You might know (you might not) that Stephen King is pretty much my all time favourite author! I absolutely adore his writing, and i just think the man is incredible. So i've started my own little mission - to read every book he has ever published.

To complete my mission i am starting from scratch. Which means that all the books i've read by him so far don't count, i have to re-read them all.

Starting today (September 7th 2014) i am going to read all of Stephen King's books. I'm currently reading Mr Mercedes and LOVING IT, and after i think i might do a re-read of Carrie or Misery, as all of the books i already love have to be read again in order to count towards this little project!

I am so excited about it, because i know that by doing this i will fall in love with even more books, because Stephen King doesn't do bad writing!

I am including EVERYTHING in this mission. Fiction, non-fiction, books published under a different name - everything. I am so excited, and although this is going to take me a very long time, it's something i know i will never get tired of!

If you want to recommend which books to read first, or feel like joining me in reading any of them, let me know! I think it'll be nice to involve some other people!

Update!

Hello again internet! It's been so long since i sat down and wrote on here, and oh man have i missed it!

I thought i'd give a little update on what's happening these days.

So on Friday i finished writing my thesis for my Master's degree, and when i hand it in tomorrow i will have officially finished my degree!!! I'm really happy with how it's turned out, and hopefully so will the markers!

This basically means that i have my life back, so i can read anything and everything i want and not worry about reading things that will help with my thesis, so back to fiction i run!

I'm currently reading Panic by Lauren Oliver and Mr Mercedes by Stephen King. I'm only a little way into both, but i am absolutely loving them!

I'll see you next time!
