The story was very sweet. It's the first book in the series. It introduces the reader to a hidden world and the beginning of an innocent love triangle. I enjoyed reading about Laurel and watching her learn about her origin and secrets that her home hides. I'm glad my friends recommend it to me. I would recommend it to anyone.

So I accidently got this month's Page Habit box.

This is what happens when I get sad and depressed. I say, "Fuck it" then go to the dollar store and search the small book section. Results:
3- Historical fiction
1-YA

So this happened this morning~

"His eyes caught her attention first. They were a bright blue contrasted with the olive tone of his skin. The color looked out of place, but not in a bad way. Kind of exotic."

New book! I'm starting the Wings Series. I don't know much about it only that my friends read it in high school and loved it. Let's see how it goes~
Thoughts? Opinions? Have you read it?
No spoilers please~

So one thing is a typo and another thing is a fail in translation.
'No me gusta lavantar el gato.'
1. Isn't "I don't like to wash the cat"
2. Isn't written correctly
It could be 'No me gusta levantar el gato' , which mean "I don't like to wake up the cat".
This caught me completely off guard. What kinda Spanish teacher is this? I asked google but it couldn't help me~

So... while searching the first book of the series, The Night Owl, I have found out that the genres are:
-contemporary
-fiction
-romance
-erotica

I... what did I get myself into? 😂😂

So your girl stopped by at the dollar store and bought books. Again. My only issue is everytime I go I never find the first book of the series. It's ALWAYS the second or third.
And that, as always, didn't stop your girl from buying. Thus will be added to my tbr list and now I'm off to hunt the first books.

From Hesiod's poem to Nyx, the Greek personification of night:
"There also stands the gloomy house of Night; ghastly clouds shroud it in darkness. Before it Atlas stands erect and on his head and unwearying arms girly supports the broad sky, where Night and Day cross a bronze threshold and then come close and greet each other" (Hesiod, Theogony, 744ff.)

"And she laughed."

I have finished THE BEAST IS AN ANIMAL by Peternelle Van Arsdale.
This book was very odd but interesting. The story flows and connects well. The main character weren't annoying in any way. It has a little bit of romance but it doesn't focus on it to much on. I enjoyed the bit of romance. It's like it's own fairy tale.
I honestly enjoyed it! It wasn't at all what I guessed or expected. [??? out of 5] #firstreadoftheyear

Okay~ Blurb time!
I'm suprised at how everything is different that what I expected. Granted I knew nothing, and I mean N-O-T-H-I-N-G about the story or where it was coming from. I liked the title and the cover. I assumed fairytale and romance and what I'm getting is fairytale, mystery and supernatural. I love it so far. It's showing some romance but not focusing fully on it like other books. #captivated #thebeastisananimal #peternellevanarsdale

Okay. This isn't book related BUT yesterday I watched this movie and LOVED IT.
Confession: I wish this was a book. I was just imagining how much detail and feeling it would have if it was a book. And not just a book based on the movie but a book before a movie.

Update: I think a book was made but I don't know. Apparently it won't be released until February. #fingerscrossed

2018! New Year, new books, new tbr, new shelves.
I spent my night reorganizing my book shelves. I'm ready to begin this new year and get lost in my books. 😍😍 #2018 #day1

SO! I haven't been reading for a long time now [sadly], but I will get on it. For the mean time, I just received the Christmas present I'm going to give my best friend. I personally haven't read this series but I ended up getting a copy by accident. It all works out in the end. #thegiverquartet

Hide a Book Day!
I decided to join in on the event.
Chicken soup is good for the body and for the soul. I remember getting this book a long time ago and loving it for it's stories and poems. I hope someone finds it and enjoys it too because high school is tough and so are relationships.
I invite you guys to join in too!

"And then she begins to fade away."
-FADE pg 229

FADE by Lisa McMann is the second book in the Wake trilogy (a.k.a The Dream Catcher Series). I enjoyed this book so much. I was hooked and there wasn't a moment when I felt bored or disinterested. I felt a connection to Janie in some aspects and found myself fully invested in every event of the book. There wasn't a dull moment for me. I'm so excited to read the final book 'GONE'. ?

"From the backseat, the growl, the man, his hands gripping Stacey's neck."

I would love to have a reading buddy where we can also share out interruption of the dreams. In this trilogy, it's important because of the overall case. If anyone is interested in reading it with me later in the future I wouldn't mind rereading it and going over the meanings. Starting now I'm going to make my notes about the dreams.

The main characters are adorable!
Note for the case: Chem + DR = hard shit going down.
Also, I'm noticing the physical symptoms and fear for Janie.

"And every time he dreams it, the bell rings before Janie can figure out how to help him."

I went into this book blind. I had no idea what it was about. As I was reading it I found it to have a writing style I've never seen before. It gives the book a quick pace. I enjoyed reading it and can't wait to continue.

"Their method was so secret that not even the assassin knew the truth."

"And, briefly, he wondered what Vicky would think if she knew he had a semiautomatic rifle in his trunk."

And so it begins. I am re-reading this book and finishing the series (finally). I read it more than 3 years ago so I remember almost nothing. So far the prologue hasn't clicked in my memory.

Going into this book, I had no idea what it was about and assumed it was a Beauty and the Beast retelling. After the first few chapters I found out it's actually a Snow White retelling. This short story was good and quick. It was a nice read.

I am honestly on chapter 5. I've had a major reading-block. It makes me sad. Either way, here is my first post here.
What I know:
-Mad Scientist for sure
-I've read another book by the same author and enjoyed it

No spoilers, yet.
