Impromptu Blogging Break

   This first month hasn't really been the best for me in terms of reading and blogging. The last 2 books I've read were 3 stars for me. I haven't picked up a book in 3 days and it's been bothering me. It's making me feel like a failure when it's barely the first month of 2016.

   I've getting behind on reviews I need to write. I've been stressed over the fact that I have too many review books in February than I actually anticipated to get. And I think it's freaking me out

My Sword and Verse Book Look!

   Welcome to my tour stop!! I'm so happy to be taking part in the Sword And Verse blog tour!! I absolutely fell in love with the romance, and the writing. It pulled me in right from the first page and that's very rare for me to enjoy the beginning of a book!

   I decided to do something I've never actually tried to do before. And that is to create an outfit inspired by the cover. It was very fun to choose each piece even though I'm not the best.

   There's also a giveaway at the end so stay tuned for that!!

The Goodness Of January Releases!!!

   I thought since this year is full of so many amazing books coming out, I thought I'd highlight a bunch of the YA books coming out for each month like some form of catalogue. Of course, these aren't all the books coming out in January but I don't want to create a gigantic post that will bore you guys

   Without further ado, I give you all the book releases!!

January TBR

   Last year, I may have had a horrible reading slump but it's a brand new beginning. I want to start off fresh and read more books in 2016.

   One of my biggest reading goals is to focus on the books I already own so half of my TBR this month is books that have already released!!

How To Save Money On Books

   Having trouble with your TBR Pile? Don't have any more room for books? Do you keep buying too many books? All of this can be resolved!!

My 2016 Reading List

   Because I am an idiot, I never thought about making a bucket list for all the books I wanted to read for 2015. That would have been really helpful especially since I neglected my TBR in favor of reading the arcs that I had obtained at ALA Midwinter.

   I wanted to prepare myself since I know 2016 is full of lots book releases. While I don't want to ignore them, I don't want to ignore the books I do own again.

Taking Bookstagram Pictures

   I meant to post this on October but I forgot. FAIL! That's why it has a Halloween theme.

   Now onto the post...

   If you guys didn't know, the blogging and book community has been evolving over at Instagram for who knows how long! I created my IG this year and I never actually thought I would because it didn't seem like my thing. But now I love taking daily pictures of books!!
