Reasons why I shouldn't go to the library

  • Books
  • Nice looking covers
  • Those flaps get me all the time
  • I have stacks waiting to be read (from friends and self)
  • 2 weeks is never enough but i can always recheck them out

There are many reasons why I shouldn't go the library right now, including the fact the moment I walk up those stairs to the second floor of my library (which is a ten minute walk) has a lot of the latest titles (sometimes) and is very much like a bookstore. I love my library there are two in my area and I love them both its just I've realized the moment I walk into well any store/library with books I tend to grab and carry. At least at bookstores I know to put it down and wait for later, but library is a whole different situation because I tend to grab a whole lot and with 2 weeks with the books its paradise and it feels great. If your reading this and your picking me up tomorrow well don't yell okay I know what I did, no intervention necessary okay, plus my sister asked me to go get this book for her (Monster High) and I couldn't help it, my hands grabbed and they scanned my card and that was it. My brother had the weirdest look ever the moment I came back he thought I took out the whole library. (With a 25 book limit its hard to stop). It was only 7 which is my favorite number so...
Stack from Library that I got today
1.Borrowing Stack, 2-3.The books I Own, 4.Library  
My stack just got bigger after today its pretty high just looking at it. I think what gets me firstly is the name of the book, then its the cover the way it looks gets me (or anything with vamps (sexy is great if possible)), than its those inside flaps they grab my attention all the time, it calls me (esp. when I feel like the character is like me) always so enthralled with the story, and as you can see I have a lot of reading to do and this is before summer. If only there was some machine that I can put every book into my brain so that its there forever and I update all info every week. You think Steve Jobs is making the iHuman, or even like the intersect like in Chuck just one look at the cover and bam!!!!! I know everything that happens in the book. (Picks from the top.) It didn't work so I'll just read it.


comments welcomed 


are you in need of an intervention as well or have the same realization because its not a problem (yet!!!!)

A Beautiful Midnight Release party for A Beautiful Series

Everyone who reads YA knows about Beautiful Creatures and have been anticipating the next novel since the release of the first one, well the wait for Beautiful Darkness is over and a happy release day to Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl.

So to celebrate the release of the book Borders in Glendale had a party with a crossword puzzle for tickets and tea to feel like we were all in the south, boy were we bad at southern slang.


There was all kinds of swag that I needed to grab before the end of the night. The best thing is I had a blast catching up with the others seeing how this book fell into our laps and that we just couldn't wait to see how long it would take us all to read the new Beautiful Darkness and how long we will be waiting for the next one. (still wondering/hoping there will be another one)


Of course I left happy because look at all the things I got thanks Tami and Marggie for the most gorgeous posters on the planet love the new bad boy HOT is not even a word to describe the nice looking man in one of the posters its amazing.


Of course the lady's couldn't make it but no worries I was able to meet them both at the Smart Chick's Kick It Tour. It was fabulous and I couldn't have had a better time there they were awesome, and I can't wait to see them again soon so that my Beautiful Darkness doesn't feel left behind. So for now I will be looking to reassure my heart that this is not the end but a lovely beginning.

Because these books are awesome to read and all because of one dare maybe someone should dare me to write something (yeah right)
