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- 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- 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.  ...

Top Ten Tuesday- Book characters linked to Halloween candy!!

Welcome Back! I know I’ve been saying that I will be back and blogging more. Life happened last week, I had an appointment last week, and I just got lazy after that. I’m planning to be back more this week and get posting again this week. Top Ten Tuesday is hosted by Jana at  thatartsyreadergirl .  This was born out of a love of lists and bringing the bookish community together. This week is a Halloween Freebie. I’m not into the horror or mystery genres. I wanted to do my top 8 Halloween candies and pick a character that reminds me of them. 1- Chocolate Rhys from A Court of Thorns and Roses series by Sarah J. Maas because he is smooth. This was a no brainier for me. Rhys is smooth, and he always knows what to say. He is charming and flirtatious so he was reminds me of chocolate no question. 2- Reese’s cups Claudia from Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills because she is sweet but has the determination to get what she wants. I read this book ...
