As always, TTT is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish: This week we're looking at Top Ten Bookish Bucket List.

So here we go:

1. Get a book published.


I believe in myself!!

2. Have a library.
Like an actual room to house my books. Cause like I physically have enough books for a library but I don't have the space for them :(

3. Read all the books I own!!

Don't I own like 300 books I've never read and don't I work at a bookstore where I buy like a handful of books a week?? YEP. BUT I WILL PREVAIL. (Or I'll get rid of them eventually, but like I hope to read them first.)

4. Read 100 books in a year.
Yes this is a goal for this year. But I'm never sure if I'm actually going to reach it or not, so it's a lifetime goal as well.

5. Visit the Moors in England.
Because Wuthering Heights.

6. Meet JK Rowling??
I'm not actually sure if this is a goal or not because while I would love to meet her and talk to her--I'm actually terrible at talking to people I admire. When I went to Vidcon, I couldn't even ask the youtuber I was most excited about seeing for a picture because I was just too nervous and in awe of her.

7. Go to BEA!
I love Conventions and this sounds amazing. I'm hoping I'll be able to do it next year if I end up in Boston (since it's much closer to BEA than MT).

8. Read Les Miserables.
I want to read a lot of classics, but this seems like the most dense in my head, but I'm sure it's going to be fantastic.

9. Share my love of reading with future generations.
I'm hoping to do this as a children's librarian, but if not that, then at least with my own kids or my friends.

10. Get a collectible book of something. 
Like I want a super neat first edition of something cool. It'd probably be a young adult or kids book. But there are some really cool one's out there and I'll know it when I see it.

So that's what I've got. What about you Lovelies? Do you have any of these on your bucket list?

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...

Give Me a Little Love

Hello Lovelies!! Today we're going to talk about love and romance in books This is going to be kind of tricky for me because while I love book romances (see what I did there?), I have a hard time articulating things I like and don't like about them. So I think I'm going to split this into two categories: likes and dislikes.  1. Love: Slow-builds. Give me all the scenes where they gently flirt, and smile at each other, and watch each other out of the corner of their eyes.  2. Hate: Moving too quickly. I understand there are only so many pages, and a lot of other things need to happen, but if they met yesterday and they're getting married or exchanging I love yous, it's moving too fast for me. Build in some time!! 3. Love: Meet-cutes! I know lots of people will be like, but how can you love both slow-builds and meet-cutes, and to them, I say, BECAUSE I CAN. But really, if you bump into each other while holding hot coffee, or hold the subway door o...

Oops I Didn't Catch Them All

Hello Lovelies! Another Top Ten Tuesday? On Tuesday? It's almost like it's Winter Break still or something.  This week's theme is... Top Ten 2014 Debuts I Missed Breakfast Served Anytime by Sarah Combs:  This novel about a young girl attending a gifted and talented camp seemed to drift under the radar, but I still want to read it.  Avalon by Mindee Arnett : A sci-fi novel that got a lot of press pre-release, but didn't make a big splash afterwards. I want to know if it's as Firefly-esque as the comparisons that were made. Even in Paradise by Chelsey Philpot: Jamie  really liked this one, and it sounds like a good read! Falling Into Place by Amy Zhang: Multiple perspectives and a heart-wrenching storyline--seems right up my alley. Let's Get Lost by Adi Alsaid: Most people I know who read this loved it. I just didn't get around to it. Far From You by Tess Sharpe: I saw this on a lot of GLBTQ positive posts, ...
