Hi everyone, Victoria here! Today I'm going to be doing the Fall Time, Cozy Time Book Tag! I was tagged by the wonderful Abi over at What Makes A Good Book, so be sure to check out her blog here:  https://whatmakesagoodbook.blogspot.com/2018/10/fall-time-cosy-time-book-tag.html .  I don't want to ramble too long so let's get on to the questions!  ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Crunching Leaves- The world is full of color: A book with red, orange, and yellow on the cover   The perfect example of a book with these fall colors on the color is Illuminae by Amy Kauffman and Jay Kristof! Although I haven't read this book yet, I will hopefully be getting to it by the end of the year. Cozy Sweater- It's finally cold enough to wear cozy clothing- What book gives you the warm fuzzies?   The first book that popped into my head after reading this question was To All the Boys I've Loved Before by

Library Book Sale Book Haul!

Hey everyone, Victoria here! Today I wanted to do a haul of the books I got from a book sale that my library had. All of these books were super cheap (paperbacks were $1.00 and hardcovers were $1.50), so I went a bit crazy! Let's just get right into the haul! Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn I just realized that this is being adapted into a TV mini-series (I think), but when I picked this up, I thought it would be a creepy and mysterious read to explore during October! All the Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr Y'ALL! I FOUND THIS IN HARDCOVER FOR ONLY $1.50! WHAT A STEAL!! I've been wanting to read this book for such a long time and I've heard nothing but great things about it. So glad I was able to pick it up for such a good price! The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern I know so many Booktubers that love this book and constantly hype it up, and I want to see how I'll like it. I think this would be a good one to read in spooky month (aka October

September Wrap-Up (2018)

Hey everyone,  Victoria here! Today I'm going to be sharing with you my September wrap-up! I read 2 books  in August, which I'm a bit disappointed with, but I was in a reading slump for most of the month. Hopefully, next month I will be able to read more!  So, let's just jump right into the wrap-up... 1.) PS I Still Love You by Jenny Han Rating: ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️  . 5 / ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️  (3.5/5) I finished this book on like the first day of September, so I don't really remember too too much from this one, but I did enjoy it.  I didn't enjoy PS I Still Love You quite as much as To All the Boys I've Loved Before, but I still thought it was a nice addition to the series. I can't talk about this one too much because it is the second book in the series and I don't want to spoil anything for anyone, but some of the plot points were not my favorite.
