February Wrap-Up 2016

Hey guys!


So this month was actually pretty successful for reading. Seeing as how it was a shorter month and I've been really busy with school, I am super proud of myself for how much I read. In February, I read 13 books. I can't believe that I read so much, it doesn't really seem possible! Anyway, here are the books that I read this month, and my ratings...

  1. The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey 4/5 stars
  2. Me Before You by Jojo Moyes 5/5 stars
  3. The Resurrected Ones: A Story of Life, Death, and Resurrection by Richard K. Thomas 1/5 stars
  4. The Martian by Andy Weir 5/5 stars
  5. Illuminae by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff 5/5 stars
  6. The Bad Beginning by Lemony Snicket 5/5 stars
  7. The Reptile Room by Lemony Snicket 4/5 stars
  8. The Wide Window by Lemony Snicket 3/5 stars
  9. The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up by Marie Kondo 3/5 stars
  10. Carrie by Stephen King 4/5 stars
  11. The Miserable Mill by Lemony Snicket 4/5 stars
  12. Winter by Marissa Meyer 5/5 stars
  13. The Austere Academy by Lemony Snicket 4/5 stars

I'm really happy with this month, especially since I set a really high Goodreads goal this year. I can tell already that March isn't going to be as good of a reading month, though I have quite a few books that I'm excited to read in March. Right now I am currently reading Outlander by Diana Gabaldon. While I am really enjoying this book, I can tell that it's going to take me a while to get through on top of school and everything else.


Did you read any of these books?
What did you think of them?

Rainy Days

Image
Good morning, everyone! I woke up this morning to a dreary, rainy day. Wisconsin has been getting a whole lot of these lately (I think the weather knows how badly I want to go to England and is preparing me). While sunny days are so nice and you can actually go outside without getting soaked, rainy days are sometimes the best kinds of days. There are some great things about rainy days, such as... playing in puddles sitting under a soft blanket with a warm mug of hot chocolate and a good book thunderstorms at night getting to wear my cute pink polka dot rain boots getting to wear my matching pink coat using cute umbrellas wearing warm sweaters I really love the rain! What are your favorite things about rainy days? xx Heidi

Life is Better at the Beach REVIEW

Image
Hello again, I'm back with yet another book review! This book published by Thomas Nelson is a great little book about how to live everyday like you're at the beach. When we're at the beach, it is so easy to be relaxed and enjoy every moment. We long to go outside and see the beauty of God's creation. However, it's hard to keep up that attitude after our beach vacation is over. This book is all about how to keep up that beach mentality every day for your own health and positivity. I did enjoy this book. It's a short, quick read, filled with very small bits of text, Bible verses, quotes, and lots and lots of lovely beach photos. I would picture this book on a coffee table in a house on the beach. It would make a great gift, something for you to flip through when you feel a little down, or un-beachy. I gave this book 3 out of 5 stars. I recommend it, I thought it was so cute! I read this as an ebook but I'll bet the physical copy is really beau...
