This Is Just A Start

Hey Everyone!

I can't tell you how good it feels to be here with you guys!

I started this post a few weeks ago but never had time to get back to it with all the homework; obnoxious papers and essays, pointless readings and confusing computer assignments. Blogging is WAY more fun and I promise to be doing more of it in the future. The fact that I have reviews says that I've been finding time to read which makes me very happy!

I've got some great reviews coming up and one of them will be on Breaking Dawn Part 1! Have you seen it yet? Please say yes. If you haven't please get off my site, buy a ticket and go see it ;-) But for now, I thought I'd give you guys a heads up on a few new releases coming in December. What book or books are you dying to get your hands on next month?

Hmmmm...let's go through the list, shall we?

Clockwork Prince (The Infernal Devices #2)

Dec. 6th 

"Tessa finds her heart drawn more and more to Jem, though her longing for Will, despite his dark moods, continues to unsettle her."  

Just a little something from the goodreads.com synopsis. I still haven't read Clockwork Angel, I know, what's wrong with me, right? I started, I tried, but it couldn't hold me. One day I'll get through it because I love the Mortal Instruments so I know this series has to be good too!

Bleeding Hearts (Drake Chronicles #4)

Dec. 20th

Now I'm confused. I actually thought this book was released months ago. Okay, I haven't read the third one, Blood Feud, but I love this series and everyone in it! Each book revolves around two different characters and this time...

"Lucy's cousin Christabel has come to live in Violet Hill,"

"But Christabel has noticed some mysterious happenings, and it seems like Lucy, her boyfriend Nicholas and his brother Connor are all in on a secret that Christabel doesn't understand—one that seems deadly serious."

*rubbing my greedy little hands together

Ruthless (Pretty Little Liars #10)
Dec. 6th

I don't know how the books read, but I do know that this is my favorite show!! I need it to come back fast, the withdrawal is killing me!

Aria’s love life is on the fritz. Emily’s exploring her wild side. Hanna’s kissing the enemy. And someone from Spencer’s past—someone she never thought she’d see again—is back to haunt her.

Oh man, this just makes me miss the show even more! Do we ever find out who "A" is?? for those of you lucky enough to be into the novels, enjoy this new release while the rest of us suffer!

Vampire Academy: The Ultimate Guide

Dec. 22nd

I don't know if you guys are into these kind of books, companions to some of our favorite novels, but I guess they can be kind of cool. It's always fun to find out little behind-the-scenes tidbits and trivia facts only the author could know.

This ultimate guide will feature everything readers want and need to go even deeper into the world of Vampire Academy, Frostbite, Shadow Kiss, Blood Promise, Spirit Bound, and Last Sacrifice . . . every heartache, every betrayal, every sacrifice, and so much more!

Magic of the Moonlight (Full Moon #2)

Dec. 27

Okay so it's a little late to get for Christmas, but a nice treat nonetheless!

The model on this cover is so adorable! I have the first in the series, Once Upon a Full Moon - another one I haven't read. 

"Celeste has more to worry about than a secret romance with a hot guy from the wrong side of town."

"...Brandon, is a werewolf." 

Masquerade (Heven and Hell #1)

Dec. 16th

Last but not least, an interesting book I stumbled upon with a very perplexing synopsis that makes me want to find out just what is going on here!

Everything was so much better Before. I wasn’t haunted by nightmares, my place at school was secure and my face was flawless. Now, I’m a freak and everything has changed.

Sam, with his intimidating golden stare and shiver inducing voice, makes me realize that I don’t know anything. He makes me see that my scars don’t matter. 

I can’t help but fall for him, completely unknowing that he knows exactly how I got this way. Not knowing he was involved.

Intrigued? I am! So tell me, what did I miss? No really, with all this homework I'm really behind in the YA world - frowny face. I need your help to keep up! 

See ya soon! 

What Are You Gonna Be?

October has proven to be the most hectic month, so far. I haven't even decorated my house for Halloween yet. *shame on me* No pumpkins, no witches, no ghosts. I don't do spiders and cobwebs because I hate spiders. That's not right. What's the strongest word for hate? Whatever it is, that is how I feel towards spiders. Enough, I hate even tying the word!

I decided I will not be dressing up this year. Last year we had a theme, fairytale characters and I was Little Red Riding Hood, my daughter was Princess Belle and the grumpy little Princess Jasmine is our cousin. And yes, she bites. The other girl is Sleeping Beauty and the boy is Ratatouille.

This year my daughter decided that wants to be a Barbie Super Girl; and it got me thinking about what I would have chosen to be had I decided to dress up. I thought we were going to be fairies this year so I had planned to be Iridessa from Tinkerbell. I was cool with that. But there's an upside to not dressing up this year, it's gonna be COOOLD! I get to be bundled up as I go door to door soliciting candy from strangers (which is the exact opposite of what we're taught); avoiding the scary houses, of course.

The point of all my rambling is that I've been thinking about costumes and how many people still dress up.

What's your favorite costume you've ever worn or seen?

What are you dressing up as this year? 

My favorite was ten years ago, my boyfriend and I were Medusa and her statue - he was covered in silver paint and wrapped in a sheet! It was great. I wish I had a picture to share but it was so long ago.

So feel free share your story, picture or funniest Halloween moment below!

(I did see a memorable costume but I don't know if it's appropriate to share here! I'll give you a hint though; it was phallic and inflatable! Is that too obvious?)
