14/47

I've been reading so much! During the bus rides, while I walk uphill back home, waiting for buses, waiting for Sammy to get out of school. I really think I might reach my goal!

Sequel to Mind Games, this was a great read! Fast paced, and I was satisfied with the ending. I also found out the author is Mormon and she has SOOO many other books out/coming out which I'm definitely going to be checking out!
Murder mystery on a remote island. I got to get my scary movie vibes without getting absolutely freaked out. It's third person which is nice and the main character is a writer which I clicked with. And the killer?! My sister recommended this book to me. She said it blew her mind who the killer was. While I read I thought I was so so smart picking up on all these clues that she must have obviously missed. Yeah, no, it stumped both of us.
I loved this series. The first book, I was a bit iffy about. We bought it up on the honeymoon, Sammy let me get a book:) It took me a bit to get into the story. But I absolutely fell in love with the characters. They are so quirky and defined! The second and third book have passages about, things, in life that seem a bit thrown in but are perfectly stated for where I am right now. The ending, perfection! 

I think I have a new obsession with books that have eyes on the covers.

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
