And Now the Reviews

Guys, apparently the year of 2015 is coming to a close. So all of the world is starting the facebook, Goodreads, and I imagine all of the other social media sites "your year in review". December isn't even over guys! Christmas hasn't even passed yet.

In any case, I'll continue my book reviews now.

The Look of Love by Sara Jio: Remember how I said I wanted to write like Amanda Filipacchi? Well, now I want to write like this author. Because, it's a hopeless romantic kinda book. But Austen era, but good stuff. And I remembered that I haven't read something like this in what feels like ages. I missed it.

Jane Austen's Guide to Dating by Lauren Henderson: This book left me wanting to watch ALL of the Austen movies. Which Christmas time is kind of the perfect time to do such a thing. And no, I did not read this to actually get help with dating, it looked like a book that was meant to be humorous, and in that case you'd be disappointed.

Home by Ellen Degenerous: THIS BOOK! It was filled with beautiful images, and I was once again reminded that people live in such houses, crazy stuff right there. There were words, guys. I don't just "read" design books for that reason, I mean seriously? Of course I do.

A Spool of Blue Thread by Anne Tyler: While this was impeccable writing, I was annoyed by 99% of the characters. They all were frustrating, slow to understanding others, and all were just not cool. I don't recommend it in the least.

Bragging Rights moment. I got a 51 out of 50 on my final! And clearly I am oh so happy! Goals were made!

I have to throw an early birthday shout-out to my dear mother! She is an amazing woman, and I have no idea how she has put up with me all of these 20 years. I know it wasn't easy, but she did it, and we still have a good relationship from it. I love her more than words could express. So Happy Birthday Mom!!

Have a fantastic, end of finals, beginning of Christmas celebrations weekend!
