Tuesday Top Twelve – Fictional Couples

14 Comments

So you may have noticed a little bit of a difference in today’s Tuesday Top Ten…and that is…its a top Twelve. Mostly because I just couldn’t narrow it down to ten. I probably could have kept going until twenty and made it a Tuesday Top Twenty, but come on,that’s getting ridiculous.

In this boom of young adult literature has borne the term “Shipping”, where you root for two characters to be together, to have a relationship with it. Some of it is canon; where you want these two characters to end up together in the actual content of the book and some of its shipping in fan fiction.

7 Comments

So this took me a really long time so you better appreciate it haha.

I know that I’m often times sharing book tours on the blog, or Facebook or Twitter, but I know that I tend to be biased to California because, well, that’s where I live. So now I’m going to try and be better and post book signings for you guys as well.

Again, this took me a VERY long time. But here you go

Things to Look Forward to in 2013

1 Comment

The year is halfway over. Its July and its full on summer mode here in Southern California. The 4th of July is that turning point of the year; its half way over.

And I’m sitting here, enjoying my summer vacation before I start my last two years of college, thinking about all the awesome things that have already come out and happened this year. Clockwork Princess. WonderCon. Meeting SO many authors. Star Trek premiere. So many cool things.

But then I was thinking about it, and I was like, there is still SO MUCH MORE to look forward to with the rest of the year. So much more.

Blogger Spotlight – Jasmine from Movies, Shows N Books

2 Comments

One of the best parts about running this blog is having the ability to meet some really cool people, and some of the coolest people that I have met have led me to really cool blogs. I’ve said it before, no one’s blog is 100% original but everyone’s voices are different so there are blogs that I love to read because I love the writer, and I love the passion that they show for what they are writing. They are fun and interesting to read and they inspire me to get better and better in my blog.

So I decided to do a feature (inspired by Megan at the Nerdy Girlie’s Geek Girls Gab), where I profile the bloggers that I love. Not only do I get to find out more about them, but I also get to share them with you guys! Most of the bloggers that I follow are like me, nerd girls, fan girls and they enjoy the same things as me, and you! Every blogger that I profile is one that is super important to me and I urge you to check them out!

Fandom Friday – Arrested Development

3 Comments

The Fandom Friday is a weekly feature, with each blog post written by a new contributor.

This is the weekly post where either myself, or a guest blogger, talks about a new fandom. See, I’ve had the experience in my life where I’ve been made fun or put down about my particular fandoms. And that has made me feel pretty crappy. But I’ve also put down other fandoms as well.

So I’ve decided to change that. I’m opening my world up to new fandoms, and the best way to do that is to bring people in to write about various fandoms. I’m very excited about this segment.

Book of the Week-The Abandon Trilogy

3 Comments

Today’s Book of the Week post is a little more unique than the others. Instead of reviewing just ONE book, I’ll be reviewing three, an entire trilogy.

I’ve done that once before with the Matched trilogy by Ally Condie because I was determined to get people past the slower second book to reach the really good third book.

But I wanted to do the entire Abandon trilogy because the third book, Awaken, came out this past Tuesday, the 2nd, and I sat down and devoured the entire thing in a matter of hours. So, instead of doing a review of just Awaken, I decided to do a post about the entire trilogy.
