When you publish, I'll be there


Hello Lovelies!

As usual Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the wonderful people over at The Broke and the Bookish. This week's topic is 10 Authors I would Auto-Buy meaning if these authors were to publish anything, I would be at the bookstore that week, money in hand. 


Anne Bishop: I'm currently finishing up the only series of hers I haven't read, and she's one of the few adult authors who I seriously adore. I would (and will) buy anything she writes.


Jandy Nelson: Omg, I'm obsessed with  I'll Give You the Sun and I really enjoyed The Sky is Everywhere. I can't wait for her next book release!


John Green: I mean, I've read almost everything he's written (still missing a couple short stories, dang it!), and I'll continue to do so.


Kate DiCamillo: She won me over completely with The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, but I've really enjoyed her other titles too. Can't wait to see what she publishes next!


Patrick Ness: I'm obsessed with his books! Once I get my latest book order, I'll only be missing his collection of short stories. I'll definitely be picking up The Rest of Us Just Live Here when it's finally released in the U.S.


Rainbow Rowell: To be completely honest, if this was arranged by priority, Rowell would be #1. I cannot wait for Carry On, Simon Snow to come out. Rowell has changed my life so much in the last couple years. If her books had midnight releases, I would be at every one of them.


Stephanie Perkins: I feel like I don't have a lot of contemporary author favorites (although looking at this list, maybe I just don't know myself that well), but I love her books so much. I will always buy stuff she writes.


Marissa Meyer: I love the Lunar Chronicles! I cannot wait for Winter to come out. And I would be just as excited to see what she did with another world. 


Gene Luen Yang: He got me into graphic novels. Like I had read the occasional one before his, but his style completely drew me in. I will definitely buy anything he does.


Leslye Walton: She might only have one book out, but I think about it constantly. I can't wait to see what she does next. 

Those are my top 10 auto-buy authors!! Who's on your list? Let me know in the comments!!

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...

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...

Happy New Year's Eve Lovelies!! I hope you are all out having a terrific night and that you won't see this until 2014 has officially rung in.  Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by the wonderful people over at The Broke & the Bookish --check out their post or their list of other awesome blogs who have participated! 1. Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell: Once I put up my year in review survey, no one will be surprised by this, but this book is definitely my favorite of the year. It is the most amazing book I've read in a long while.  2. Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell: Oh Fangirl, I just barely squeezed you in to 2013, but I managed it. Mostly because once I picked it up I didn't put it back down. I couldn't. It was sort of like reading a pseudo-AU of my life. 3. American Born Chinese by Gene Luen Yang: This was a wonderful book that showed the commonalities and differences of people of all ages across cultures. I loved it.  4. Hyperbole an...
