What Are You Up To?


Hello Lovelies!! Are you enjoying some discounted candy? I am!!

As usual Top Ten Tuesday is brought to you by The Broke and the Bookish, and this week's theme is Top Ten Characters I'd Like To Check In On.

So if I had to pick some book friends to check in on after the story has ended, see how life's going these are who I'd ring...

1. Harry Potter. I know Rowling gave us an epilogue, but it just didn't do it for me. I want more on both ends--how did the weddings? What was life like before they had kids? Did they ever panic that their life wasn't going to be normal? How is it raising kids? Do the kids bring as much trouble as they did?

2. Cathy from Wuthering Heights. Is she happy? Are they married? I want more!!

3. Peeta and Katniss from The Hunger Games: Why did they decide to have kids? Do they still have nightmares? What's the world like now? 

4. Celia and Marco from The Night Circus: How's life? Is everything good? 

5. Eleanor & Park : Are you happy?? Is life amazing?? I hope it is.

6. Todd from the Chaos Walking series: How is everything? What's the world like? Tell me everything!!

7. Hazel from The Fault in Our Stars: Did you make it? 

8. Death from The Book Thief: Has someone else caught your eye? 

9. Ella from Ella Enchanted: How's life? Tell me what other adventures you've found!

10. Karou from The Daughter of Smoke & Bone trilogy: How's the world? How's life? Tell me the news!!

There's others for sure, but these are the few that I want more of outside the series. I was tempted to put a few others whose series I haven't finished yet, but I figure I'll get more of them when I read the next book.

So there we are, 10 friends I want to check up on. What about you lovelies? Who do you want to check in on? Let me know in the comments!

  1. Death and Ella are both great choices! Ella has such a happily-ever-after ending, but I agree that she and Char must have gone on many more adventures!

Blarghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Hello lovelies. I'm feeling super overwhelmed by life since I'm doing Camp Nanowrimo and trying to move and find a place to live 2600 miles away. So that's my excuse for missing last week. But now you get two weeks in a row. So this week's theme (hosted as always by The Broke and the Bookish ) is... Top Ten Favorite Movies   (And I picked Scary Movies) I have a secret. Or I guess I had a secret. And that secret is that I love  scary movies. Like anything that plays on gross special effects or melting walls or sudden appearances--I'm totally down for it. (This has only back fired on me once--when I had a panic attack watching Saw 2--I don't wanna talk about it...) So in no particular order, movies that really impressed me with their scare factors: 1. Thir13een Ghosts -- there's this scene with a glass door that is ingrained in my brain.  2. Haunting in Conneticut -- aw man, this movie is sooo good. I actu

Why Should I Trust You?

Hello Lovelies!! It's my finals week, so I'm going to make this one quick.  This week's Top Ten Tuesday (by the Broke and the Bookish ) allows us to fill in the blank! So I will be bringing you... The Top Ten Books with Characters Who are Unreliable Narrators (AKA BIG OL' LIARS). I love unreliable narrators because you never know if they're actually being unreliable or not. Occasionally they tell the truth, but occasionally they lie. So here we go... 1. Nothing by Janne Teller 2. Liar by Justine Larbalestier 3. Fortunately, the Milk by Neil Gaiman 4. Finnikin of the Rock by Melina Marchetta 5. Don't Look Back by Jennifer L. Armentrout 6. Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein 7. Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte 8. The Princess Bride by William Goldman 9. Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas 10. I'll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson Many of these books feature the unreliable characters as side characters and not main charac

More Diversity in Your Book Diet

Hello Lovelies! As usual Top Ten Tuesday is brought to you by the lovely people over at The Broke and the Bookish . Today's topic is Top Ten Books for People Who Like X, and I'm going to go with... Top Ten Books for People Who Like Diversity Thanks to the efforts of groups like We Need Diverse Books, diversity is having a resurgence in young adult and children's books. For the last couple years, I have been trying to read more books with diverse characters or by diverse authors. (Diverse in this respect includes race, sexuality, gender, and disability). I haven't endeavored to challenge myself to only read a certain type of book i.e. only those by women of color or anything that isn't by a white heterosexual male, but I try to be extra aware of the characters and ask myself if they actually are white (sometimes the text doesn't say it, sometimes people just assume it!) and if being white is necessary for the character or not.  But here are my top t
