May Wrap Up

Image
Hey guys I have read a total of 3 books this month. One was a smallish book and two were the the standard 500 odd page book. And I'm currently 100 pages in a book. I also ended up buying 2 books as well. So, I'm quickly going to tell you the two books I bought then I'll get right into the Wrap Up. The first book I bought was: Children Of Blood And Bone by Tomi Adeyemi Look how beautiful this is, and it has this soft texture to it as well.      Zélie  remembers when the soil of  Orïsha hummed with magic. When different clans ruled - Burners igniting flames, Tiders beckoning waves, and  Zélie's Reaper mother summoning forth souls.     But everything changed the night magic disappeared. Under the orders of a ruthless king, anyone with powers was targeted and killed, leaving  Zélie without a mother and her people without hope. Only a few people remain with the power to use magic, and they must stay hidden.    ...

Top 5 Wednesday (Rewind)

Image
Hey guys, So Lainey and Samantha (the moderators of Top 5 Wednesday) have said that this month is a rewind month. So I've decided to do a topic I love, which is: Favourite Maps! So to start off, number 5 is: Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake    I'm a sucker for detailed maps and if this isn't on, I don't know what will make it one. It's very cramped, which I sometimes don't like, but it's worked out for this map. It's easy to find the places, which is great because it helps you understand the scale of things. Now, for number 4: Children Of Blood And Bone by Tomi Adeyemi I like this one because there isn't any information on here that's not needed. I also like that it includes the sea considering where the sea comes into at the beginning. It's also cool how the map is on the inside of the cover. Now at number 3: The Christmasaurus by Tom Fletcher   I love this map because it's so cute and childish. Whe...

Most Of My Favourite Quotes

Image
Hey guys I was going through a list of my favourite quotes the other day, and I thought I'd share them because, who doesn't love a good quote. These aren't in any particular order, so I won't be stating any favourite one. Side Note: There's going to be swearing in some of these quotes. So if you don't like that, I've warned you. These first lot of quotes are from musicals made by Team Starkid. I love these people and their musicals. I have also made a Top 25 Starkid Song post, so if you want to see that click HERE  Also Lauren Lopez holds a very special place in my heart and I don't think that's ever going to change. "I'm tired! Why can't we just be Death Eaters?"     - Draco ~ A Very Potter Musical I'm always tired so I find this very relatable, also it's said by Draco which is even better. "You'd think killing people would make them like you, but it doesn't, it just makes them dead...

Books I Want To Re-Read

Image
Hey guys I've been in a very re-readie (is that a word?) mood lately, so I thought I'd share what books I really want to get into again. Little Women by Louisa May Alcott This book follows 4 March sisters: Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy, who are living with their mother in New England. Their farther is away serving as a chaplain in the Civil War, and the sisters struggle to support themselves and keep their home running despite the fact that the family recently lost their fortune. In the process, they become close friends with their wealthy neighbour, Theodore Laurence (also known as Laurie). Jo, the lovely protagonist, must tame her tomboyish ways and learn to be more ladylike while pursuing her ambition to be a great writer. Meg, the oldest of the 4, must put aside her love of wealth and finery in order to follow her heart. Beth, the adorable shy sister (and my favourite), must conquer her bashfulness, while Amy, The youngest March, has to sacrifice her aristocratic pr...

My Top 25 Team Starkid Songs

Image
Hey guys So I've been obsessed with Team Starkid these past few months and I've had a lot of videos like this on YouTube, so I thought 'why not make my own post'. The thing is, I under estimated how hard it would be to narrow songs down. I have 96 songs, so you can imagine how difficult it was for me. It was originally going to be a Top 20 but then I had more songs that I love so I ended up adding 5 more, luckily I had more self control after that. Also this list doesn't include Ani: A Parody because I made this list before I watched it and I refuse to go back and see if I want to change the list, that'll just be too much for me to handle. Also this is my own opinion, so if your favourite songs aren't on this list, or at a part of the list you would like them to be, I mean no offence (but just think they've beaten 71 other songs!), I'll probably end up posting this then decide that I don't like the order I have these songs in, I think I'm...
