Today’s Top Ten Tuesday is the top ten books on my summer reading TBR list. Here goes! Long Overdue (Meaning, everyone else has already read these!)

But, it has gotten such rave reviews from so many people that I’ve […]

Title: Obsidian Author: Jennifer L. Armentrout Publisher: Entangled Teen Release Date: May 8, 2012 Pages: 361, Paperback Goodreads Rating: 4.36 stars My Rating: 3/5 stars Summary from Goodreads: Starting over sucks. When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring…. until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up. And then he opened his mouth. […]

Can I just tell you that I am in love with this meme?! Since I’ve started blogging, I’ve added so many books to my TBR list that I know it’s impossible for me to read them all. Somehow, it makes me feel […]
