Actually Rating 4.5 I enjoyed every bit of this book, every single minute. I read it in 6hrs, and I can say it was time we'll spent. I can't remember the last time I've been so captivated by a book that I only wanted to see what would happened next. I ...more |

“The Road Not Taken
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”

Finally finished Uni, will be graduating this fall and I can't wait, mostly because I can finally get back to reading. I've missed reading my YA novels especially.
Am I the only one that didn't know that there was a movie for

Completed my Goodreads Challenge for 2016!! 
I lost my kindle with all my books! To say I am depressed would be an understatement.
I'm really behind on my 2016 Reading Challenge, now that I've finished my first year of university I'm going to read as many books as I possible can before late August.
Thank you for the friendvite, Karona! I look forward to chatting about books with you. :)

Read 28 books in April, I really want to go over 30 for May.
I'm on Goodreads more than anything else. I don't have a facebook, twitter or even a whatsapp account anymore. Books just seem way better than people.
Still not ready to buy the hardcopy for
, still think its too soon.
I'm caught in the middle of the idea of meeting someone I like in a library / bookstore; yes we would have all these books to discuss but on the other hand we would hardly talk because we would both be too busy reading. Lol
People always ask why most if not all heroes come from the 'worse backgrounds', I tell them it's where some of the strongest, most generous people are born and raised.
Check out my first book.

I'm a whole lot scared but-what the heck.
I keep getting new ideas or this book. Ugh! I don't know what to do.. . .
Finished my first book and I know it sucks. Looooool
I have Twylla from
and Mare from
mixed up because to me they are so alike.

Books are my way of escape from this gloom reality.
Why when I type in 'Goodreads' in the search bar, the first book to come up is

comes out today. 
I tend to avoid books where the cover depicts half naked men.
So much reading to do, so little time to do it.
My favorite read books for 2014 are
