Summer Celebrations (Discussion) - Bookending Summer



Hi! Welcome to post two of Bookending summer. I would like to try to do one or two more than the required three. The hosts of this  event are Clo @bookdragons and Sam @fictionallysam. This prompt was posted by Erin  @bluestockingbookworm. The event is a way for blogger to interact and talk about books as well as have other discussions based on prompts.

Summer Celebrations

The first part of this prompt asks if there are any celebrations you personally take part in throughout the season. Memorial Day is the official start of summer, and even it is in the end of May, I still count it as part of the summer. Every year, we gather at my mother's for a BBQ which is always a good time. The Fourth of the July is also in the summer. Once again, we usually gather at my mom's for a BBQ and celebrations. This year, she came here to my dad's, and we had a really good time. My sister has a birthday in the summer, and so we usually celebrate with her in some way. Usually, this is a summer BBQ or some kind of low key family party at my mom's. My cousin is having a Graduation/  Going off to College party this summer so we will be going to that this year.


Summer Event in a book I want to attend

I can't recall if it is said when the event takes place, but I am going to assume this event takes place in the summer. I would love to go to Excelsi Con from Geekerlla and The Princess and the Fangirl by Ashley Poston. I love the culture of a con, and I'm such a nerd that I would have such a fun time there. The characters in the books are so charming and vivid and I believe I would have such a great time with all of them. The panels described in the book seem like so much fun and I would enjoy hearing the cast talk about the movie and franchise in the book. I have never been to Atlanta, so when I was not at the con, or a few days after the end of the con, I would explore the city.

Top Ten Tuesday- characters that remind me of myself

Welcome back to Top Ten Tuesday! This is a weekly meme where readers discuss ten or whatever number you would like to have based on a prompt. Our host is Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl . Our topic this week is Characters Like Myself. I am going to take a two words that each character has in in my opinion,  and discuss how that relates to me  as well. 1- Cather Avery from Fangirl Writer- At her core, Cath is a writer, and she loves her stories. I am a writer of both Fan Fiction and original stories like Cath so this was an automatic in for this. Both of us love our work and we tend to through ourselves whole hardheartedly into our work. Sisters- I might have mentioned this on the blog before but I have a younger sister and we’re only roughly 18 months a part. Cath and her twin sister Wren are polar  opposites and this is me and my sister. My younger sister is an extrovert and into science. I on the other hand,  am an introverted creative bookworm.  2- Miriam Kendrick from C

Top Ten Tuesday- Favorite Books of the Year Part 1 (12-21)

    Hi! Jana hosts Top Ten Tuesday @ thatartsyreadergirl . The purpose of this meme was to bring the book blogging community together and foster our love of lists. Each week, Jana posts a topic, and we readers respond based on that prompt. This week our topic is a freebie, so I decided to make my list of my top ten reads part one.   Middle Grade 12- Never After by Melissa de la Cruz I'm almost done with this book. It's a duology, and I loved the new twist on fairy tales.    YA 13- Don’t Read the Comments by Eric Smith I read this early in the year and it stuck with me. This YA Contemporary about gaming and the culture of the gaming industry was fantastic.  14- The Book Thief by Markus Zusak It took me years to read this book but I really enjoyed it. I love the unique narrator, the characters, and the story.  15- The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas This is another backlist release. I loved this book, and I knew when I read it that it had the potential to be on this list. I still thi

2019 Book Resolutions Tag!

Hey everyone! So Thursdays on the blog I am going to post a new tag. I think tags are so much fun, and I enjoy the time to reflect on what I’ve read in the past, or what I want to read. Images come from Goodreads. I grabbed the questions from  this blog 1. An author you’d like to read (that you’ve never read before). Leigh Bardugo! I have heard such great things about the Grisha verse, so I want to see if it lives up to all the hype. I have a feeling it will, and I am intrigued by the world. I got the first three books in the series as one large Ebook , so I ’m going to start that next month. I can’t wait to go on the journey and be immersed in a new series!  2. A book you’d like to read. Romanov by Nadine Brandes I love Anastasia and the Romanov family. This looks like such a fantastic retelling. I am drawn in just reading the blurb on Goodreads.  3. A classic you’d like to read. A Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett. I’ve had the Barnes and Nobel edition of
