My Dream Literary Collection

So, a few months ago, Ryan from Invaluable.com (it's an auction site) contacted me to write a post about my dream literary collection. Admit it, in some points in our live, we're all want a first edition books or a signed popular books. Well, I'm no different, and today I'm going to write about rare books that I want. Here it is :

GOODREADS | PURCHASE

It’s not about the destination, it’s about the journey... 

With her trusty baton and six insanely organized clipboards, drum major Liza Sanders is about to take Destiny by storm—the boat, that is. When Liza discovered that her beloved band was losing funding, she found Destiny, a luxury cruise ship complete with pools, midnight chocolate buffets, and a $25,000 spring break talent show prize. 

Liza can’t imagine senior year without the band, and nothing will distract her from achieving victory. She’s therefore not interested when her old camp crush, Lenny, shows up on board, looking shockingly hipster-hot. And she’s especially not interested in Russ, the probably-as-dumb-as-he-is-cute prankster jock whose ex, Demi, happens be Liza’s ex–best friend and leader of the Athenas, a show choir that’s the band’s greatest competition.

But it’s not going to be smooth sailing. After the Destiny breaks down, all of Liza’s best-laid plans start to go awry. Liza likes to think of herself as an expert at almost everything, but when it comes to love, she’s about to find herself lost at sea.

Top Ten New-To-Me Favorite Authors I Read For the First Time in 2015

Top Ten Tuesday is a feature hosted by the Broke and the Bookish

So, it's been like, 3 months since I last do Top Ten Tuesday and I must say I miss it! This week's topic--as you can see at that super-long-title--is new-to-me favorite authors. Since I just started book blogging in December 2014, there's a lot new-to-me authors whose book became my favorite, but I managed to choose ten. Here it is :

1. Marie Lu

I know, Marie Lu already published her books since 2011, but I first read her book Legend in the beginning of 2015, and it immediately became my favorite! So far, I've read 4 of her books this year, and I like them all.

IT'S MY BLOGOVERSARY!

So today is 5th of December, which means

IT'S MY BLOGOVERSARY!

Seriously, this gif never gets old

I honestly didn't expect to went this far. I mean, before I have this blog, I used to have a fandom instagram (you know, the one who post quotes, movie scene, etc.?) and tumblr, but both only last for around 6 months. So it's a huge surprise for me that I've went this far!

Review : Perfect Couple by Jennifer Echols

Title : Perfect Couple (Superlatives #2)
Author : Jennifer Echols
Genre : YA contemporary
Release Date : January 13th, 2015
Publisher : Simon Pulse

GOODREADS | PURCHASE

In this second book in The Superlatives trilogy from Endless Summer author Jennifer Echols, Harper and Brody think they’re an unlikely match—but the senior class says they belong together.

As yearbook photographer, Harper is responsible for those candid moments that make high school memorable. But her own life is anything but picture perfect. Her parents’ bitter divorce left her wondering what a loving relationship looks like. And ever since the senior class voted her and star quarterback Brody “Perfect Couple That Never Was,” her friends have been pushing her to ask Brody out.

Brody doesn’t lack female admirers, but Harper can't see herself with him. He’s confused about the match too. Yet they find themselves drawn together—first by curiosity about why the class paired them, then by an undeniable bond.

The trouble is, though they’re attracted to each other, they have a hard time getting along or even communicating well. If they’re the perfect couple, this shouldn’t be so difficult! Soon it becomes clear their class was wrong, and they throw in the towel. But they feel so changed from making the effort, they can’t forget each other. What if this match made in hell is the perfect couple after all?

Monthly Recap : October

I actually planned to not write a monthly recap this month since it's no different than last month's recap. October is another slow-blogging month for me, and the excuse is still same--school. I have so many assignments and tests which make it hard to read and to blog, and when I didn't have it, I'm so tired I just wanna sleep (in fact, when I'm writing this, I just woke up from 3 hours-nap. It feels so good!)

Just for your information, I think I will be busier in November since I have to take my final examination. That's why, I think this semi-hiatus will last longer than I'd expected.
