NaNoWriMo day 7!!!!!!!

One week of NaNoWriMo flew by, and I feel like I'm at a better place novel wise than I was two years ago. Today I finished chapter 6, and tomorrow I start and maybe finish chapter 7 so I'm only one day behind the actual calendar! I wrote 2,810  words and I find that amazing because I was not expecting that. My total right now is: 16,547 and so I made my reach goal of 16.5 k today. Today I wrote a lot of  paragraphs and two large scenes and one or two smaller ones. The paragraphs that I'll be sharing today are my main character Phoebe, and her best friend and future love interest Rhi discussing what is going on with Rhi on the day of her adoption, and Harry Potter.


Rhi was one that was on her side, and the thing of it was that she was so excited to hear this even though she didn’t see a need to pick sides the two of them, because Phoebe knew that it wasn’t the right thing to do. The crazy thing was that Rhi wasn’t going to pick sides either but she knew that Phoebe was correct in her way of thinking, and the two of them could maybe discuss this the two of them. “ I know that you might want to talk about what’s going on with you and Lizzie, but I’m also down for not talking about that if you don’t want to talk about what’s going on but if you want to talk about something else.” The crazy thing was that as she was saying this, she could feel that Phoebe was just about to say something similar to what she had just said the two of them were on the same wave length like that. It was kind of an odd thing, that the two of them had they were just always having a feeling that they knew what the other one was thinking. “You know what’s funny I was going to say the same thing, I wanted to know if you wanted to talk about what books you were reading or anything like that” talking about books was a common pass time for the two of them. They were both very much into the Harry Potter series, they had started the books when each of them had turned nine Rhi had turned nine at the end of August, so she was a little older than Phoebe was.

“Ok so in the interest of not talking about what you and your sister were talking about earlier, what Hogwarts house would you put yourself in and also how far along on Harry Potter are you” Rhi looked at her, she so much hoped this she would make Phoebe feel better this way. “ I think that I would put myself in Ravenclaw because I’m creative and because I enjoy learning and books, I’m about halfway through the book I read a little bit of it every day what about you Rhi?” “ I also thinking that I would be in Ravenclaw because I am one that is creative, and I like school but I also feel that because of the kindness that I am maybe in Hufflepuff I am about half way through as well do you have a favorite character?” At this Phoebe thought for a moment, she did have a favorite character but she could also see herself in a hybrid house like Rhi had said. “My favorite character is Hermione because I feel like I see a lot of myself in her what about you,” at this Phoebe looked up wondering what Rhi was going to say to this she wasn’t sure what one of her best friends was going to say to this. “ The funny thing is that Heromine is also my favorite character, and I see a lot of the both of us in her as well.” It was crazy how that worked, but for the next few hours the two of them chatted about what was on their mind: books, music, school, and yes family but it was all very relaxed and chill.

Top Ten Tuesday- Holiday / Seasonal Freebie- Memorable characters of 2020

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana  @thatartsyreadergirl . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we book bloggers will post a reply to the topic. This week, it's a seasonal / winter freebie. I kind of went rogue in a way. In the winter you see the end of the year best-of lists, and that's exactly what I did with this post. You will find subsections to indicate the genre each book is in.  YA Contemporary 1- Pepper from Tweet Cute by Emma Lord Tweet Cute was a novel I read in September. I fell hard for the major character, Pepper. She was so sweet, and she wanted so much to lice her own life.  As a bonus, she baked, and I seem to really love characters who bake. Pepper made this list because she wanted to live her own life for her, and I really admire that quality in a person. 2- Sophie from 10 Blind Dates by Ashley Elston I’m in the middle of this book right now, but I ...

Top Ten Tuesday –Favorite Couples (Valentine’s Day /Love Freebie)

  Hi! Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana @ thatartsyreadergirl. . This meme was born out of a love of lists and bringing the book blogging community together. I love doing this meme because it gives me a chance to bond with other bloggers. Every week, Jana will post a topic, and we bloggers will make a post with our list on the topic, or a different one. This week it was Valentines / Love, so I wanted to do a post on favorite couples. I may have done a similar post last year, but I know that there are some new couples on this list.  1- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy- Pride & Prejudice   This is the only classic couple on this list. I enjoy their relationship because the two characters have little in common, and yet by the end of the novel, they make it work. As you read Pride & Prejudice, you get to see these two find the love each of them was missing. 2- Cath and Levi–Fangirl One of my favorite YA novels needed to appear on this list. I love Cath and Levi becau...

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten Historical

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! Our Host is Jana @thatartsyreadergirl . Every week, readers gather and respond to the topic of  the week. This week, we are talking about Top Ten Books in our favorite genre. I love The Classics, YA of all kinds minus Horror and Mystery, and Historical. I choose Historical as I talk about Classics and YA a lot on this blog. These are in no order, just as they came to me. 1- Romanov  by Nadine Brandes I read this Anastasia retelling in nineteen days when it came out. I loved this book so much! About half the novel was the Romanov’s in exile, and their life in a house where they couldn’t do that much. As the story progresses, we see that Nastya is a spell master, so this is how Fantasy is sprinkled in with the Historical Fiction to tell a new story. I loved all aspects of this novel, even the ones that were sad, and almost caused me to throw this book across the room. I will review this book later on this month. I recommend this for any...
