CHINA HERE I COME!!!!

Going to China tomorrow!!! SO EXCITED!! Can't think straight!!! AHHHHH!!!!

Anyway, since this IS a blog about books, I will speak briefly about a book I just finished called Looking for Alaska by John Green. Very good, very well written, makes the reader think, oh and it's a young adult novel. But it is about something that I think readers of all ages can relate to: life, death, loss, suffering, and how we move on. It is also laugh out loud hilarious at some parts. I highly recommend it to you all, especially as a good summer read.


I will do my best to post updates on this blog while I'm in China, maybe not about books, since I will be in school there, but about everything amazing that is happening while I'm gone.

Happy reading!!

Sweet Summertime

Summer...beaches, swimming, blockbusters, sailing, BBQs, shots, novels, travel.

School is out, finished the finals, papers, quizzes, all of it. And I am very happy. Elated and relaxed. I have two weeks until China and I am counting down the days. It's pretty much all I think about and I just keep getting more and more excited. I've been watching documentaries about China and reading my guidebook nonstop. I can't wait for this adventure!

Not much on the schedule for now, work, reading, cleaning, preparing. Still working on the last books I posted about, thanks to finals...more to come as this lovely summer unfolds...
