My Guilty ObsessionS!!!

First of all, I am back online now...and oh my goodness...I read some books, of course. I officially (not really), hooked up, engaged, and married a character in one of the books that I happened to read.. :p OMG!!!

I am sad to say though that I didn't pick this book to read on my own. The long story short is I was grounded (a long time ago) and I was ordered to read 5 books to get ungrounded...and me...the geek, kept adding books to the pile, and this book was among them.

DELIRIUM by Lauren Oliver!!!!!! One of the best books in the history of books. My guilty literary crush's name is Alex. Yes, Alex. I am even weird enough to mention this to my friends, who all laughed and said I was stupid. :( LOL

I am afraid to tell you, in any way, what this book's about because I will probably spoil it for each and every single one of you, but I want you to read this blog sooner or later, and if you haven't read this book yet, I am so sorry to say that you are late calling dibs on probably one of the best guys in the whole entire world.

There are no flaws about this book. There are only good things I could possibly find to say.

One other book I read is The First Step to Forever by my other boyfriend (bye bye Selena Gomez) because surprisingly (only for you guys) he is my other obsession and I love him so much. I am not going to lie that I know almost everything about him and read anything I can get my hands on about the totally hot guy, Justin Bieber.

Yes, there are people that do make fun of me because I am his favorite girl and his one less lonely girl, but that is not my problem that Justin Bieber happens to like me (if he knew me).

I am so obsessed that I even asked my step-mom to e-mail Ellen Degeneres for me and tell her how obsessed over Justin I am so that I can meet him. She said maybe. I really don't think she will do it though.

I can't say that I saw any flaws to his beautiful, amazing book, but I am just a total stinker for him and love him so much that I probably didn't notice. All that I noticed is his totally awesome life, his love for his fans, his rudeness towards his parents, and his funny personality and humor. I am totally in love.

Andi the step mom interjects here: I'm not happy about the rudeness to parents part. :(

Kiss and Blog

Kiss and Blog by Alyson Noel is no worse than any other drama queen book I have ever read, but I've gotta say it's better than some.

It is about trust and friendship. There are these two best friends that are trying to get into the clique of the populars. But one of the friends end up realizing that it's not going to be that easy for her to get in because she doesn't look like one of the popular girls. Her best friend ends up turning her back on the other and vice versa. They call each other names behind each other's backs. And the totally impossible to be popular friend ends up making a blog and gushing about all her best friend's secrets for revenge.

The friends take totally different paths and there is the same amount of drama in both of their lives.

Friendships are lost. Friendships are gained.  Boyfriends are made. Exes add up.

This is a love gush book that you'll totally freak about because it is so twisted and you never even know what's gonna end up happening. It's all suprises.

At least it was to me.

Hey :P

I'm back!!!! :P I am so sorry I have not posted anything lately. The reason is because I haven't been reading lately. Well actually that is a lie; I had to read two books for school. The first book i had to read is for Ap Human Geography.

The book is called "Three Cups of Tea." It wasn't boring but it was just slow. I actually admire what Greg Mortenson is trying to do, building schools for un-educated kids in Afghanistan.

The second book I had to read for English Pre-Ap is "Charlie St. Cloud." I had to pick the book and of course, I picked this book because of Zac Efron and because I saw the previews for the movie. I got it on my birthday and had mentioned it in a later blog, on my birthday. Within the first thirty pages I was in tears. If you haven't read it yet, you need to.

The latest book I read is "Big Nate Stikes Again" by Lincoln Pierce. I kind of started it on an accident. I started to read it to my baby brother because I was bored and it is an easy-read with pictures. I started reading it and ended up not wanting to put it down because it was so good. I am at page 119 and I started today. Ha!

Okay, I admit I should have been reading more but I got caught up writing this book I   
had started with my G-mama.

I look forward to Dewey's 24-Hour Read-a-Thon in October reading for twenty-four hours, and I am starting "Little Vampire Women." It's the first of four books I am going to read by October 31 for Carl's RIPV Challenge.Hope to accomplish them, and most of all I hope I can stay up the full twenty-four hours. :)

Thanks!!!

New Books!!!


It’s Monday! What Are You Reading This Week? is a weekly event to list the books finished last week, the books currently being read, and the books to be finish this week. It was created by J.Kaye’s Book Blog, but is now being hosted by Sheila from One Person’s Journey Through a World of Books.!

Books Completed Last Week: I didn't finish anything--just worked on my own stories.

Books Reading This Week: Gone, by Michael Grant

Books to Be Completed This Week: Gone and whatever else I can finish!

Yesterday we went to Andi's mom's house and I asked to look through some books she'd boxed up. I found a bunch that looked really good, so I brought them home. I started reading Gone, by Michael Grant, on my way back home.

I also got;
 Garden Spells, by Sarah Addison Allen
 Life IS SO GOOD, by George Dawson and Richard Glaubman
 Behind the Attic Wall, by Sylvia Cassedy
Autobiography of a Face, by Lucy Greely
Evil Genius and Genius Squad, by Catherine Jinks
Life of Pi, Yann Martel
Night, by Elie Wiesel
Remembering Raquel, by VivianVande Velde

I literally went through a box full of books and dug all these out. They all sound pretty good too.

If you guys like any of these books and have anything to say, comment. And if you want to suggest any books to me you could be my guest.

Gone is so far so good. I am only up to chapter two though. :P
