Well it’s
day three of having baby Lily around and we are so happy and blessed! She is
such a joy and at the current moment I just can’t think or talk about anything
else! Here is a picture I took of us
last night while we were watching The Bachelorette!
I did do
something exciting today however, I purchased three new books to read! I love
to read, I love getting lost in stories and relating to the characters. I was
on Buzzfeed, an amazing site with hilarious stories and different list
compilations, t’s a great cheerer upper kind of website! Anyway, they had a
list of the top 14 books you need to read before they hit the big screen. I
perused the article and decided on the three below. I love reading books before
seeing them on the big screen, especially when they’re already getting great
reviews! They each sound incredible and I think I will enjoy getting through
each one :) Here are the books I bought today on Amazon, because I got two of
them used I only spent $25..shipping was free because I spent that $25! I
included the descriptions posted on Buzzfeed as well. I didn’t Wikipedia them
because I was afraid it’d give away the ending, but here are the snippets I got!
1. The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
Here’s why: "A terminally ill girl unexpectedly falls in love despite her inevitable fate." Classic tear jerker read. It’s not the first of its kind, but it had great reviews and I’m looking forward to reading it!
2. Serena by
Ron Rash
Here’s why: "A
thrilling tale that follows newlyweds George and Serena Pemberton on their
journey to create a timer empire and ruthlessly kill all who fall out of favor.
Serena finds out some unfortunate information and then crap hits the fan." I
have to admit, because Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper are starring in it
is the real reason here…but the movie is already getting lots of great buzz so I
can’t wait to dive in!
3. If I Stay
by Gayle Forman
Here’s why: "A
17-year old girl slips into a coma after a bad accident. She has an out-of-body
experience, she watches as friends and family visit and then needs to choose to
live a difficult life or die peacefully." The minute I read this tiny short
description I got chills, this one sounds amazing and I think I’m going to
tackle it first. Can you imagine?! Ahhhh, I can’t wait!
I’ll definitely
give some reviews as I finish each one, but if you want to read along with me
that’d be fun too! :)
Oh and if you want to waste some time, here is the link to the full article!
