Wattpad

Hi! So I've spent most of the day reading fanfictions on Wattpad. I've been especially hooked on an author with the pen name KatieGuinn (link). She's written a lot of stories and I've read far from all but those I have read are amazing. I've read two about Loki (Avengers played by Tom Hiddleston) called "A Change of Fate" and "A Twist of Fate" and also a Robert Downey Jr fic called "Dreams come true" and I've been fangirling so hard. Anyway, the point is that this author is amazing and you should really check out her stories! Currently I'm listening to Robert Downey Jrs' version of "Smile" on Spotify, it's amazing!


Here it is! Robert Downey Jr - Smile
Enjoy!

What I'm gonna do now I don't know. Maybe I'll go to bed early so I have the energy to study all day tomorrow!

Have a nice evening!

Sick

Hey guys. Today I'm at home, woke up at five in the morning feeling like crap so I decided to stay at home. I'm currently updating my goodreads page (link) and I'm shocked by how few books I've actually read. I do believe however that I've read some more that I've forgotten about. You guys should check out my profile and see what books I've read, maybe you'll get inspired. A warning though, I've mostly read YA and paranormal romance.

That's all for now!

More fool me

Hello!

On my wishlist for christmas, or now if anybody wants to buy it for me, is Stephen Frys' "More fool me" as seen below.


Last week I went with my classmates and a few teachers to watch Stephen Fry talking about his book and many other things. We didn't actually see him in real life but we went to a live streaming at a movie theater in Västerås. To be honest I didn't know much about Stephen Fry before that, except for the fact that he played Sherlock Holmes' brother Mycroft in the movies starring Robert Downey Jr. Anyway, he is an amazing person. I was really inspired by him and I actually cried when I heard about the troubles he's faced just because he's gay. Of course he also said a lot of fun things during the live streaming. I would really love to read the book. I think there will be crying and laughing hand in hand throughout it. So yeah!

Be inspired!

Waiting

Hey!

So I know that my updates are lacking at the moment. The only thing I have to say in my defense is that I have a lot going on in school and fall has really crept up on me and I'm caught in this sad mode all the time. But I thought I'd let you know what I'm wating for at the moment. I placed an order at bookdepository last week and I got a mail saying the books were on their way yesterday (yay!).
Here's what I ordered:


Of Poseidon by Anna Banks
Book 1 of 3 in the Syrena Legacy series.
I don't really know much about it. Bella over att Bellas bokblogg is the one who recommended it to me. This is the first book we're reading in our new little book circle. I'm really excited to finally have someone to discuss books with!


Of Triton by Anna Banks
This is book 2 of 3 in the Syrena Legacy series.


Torn by Amanda Hocking
This is book 2 of 3 in the Trylle series. I've already read the first one which I loved. I don't want to give too much away but it's about a girl named Wendy who finds out she's a changeling. Hoping to read the second one soon.


Ascend by Amanda Hocking

I'm really looking forward to reading these. Of Poseidon is the first one up since it's the book my little circle of booknerds are supposed to read in October. The others will have to wait. Hopefully I'll read them before the new year.

That's all for now!

Goodreads

Hi guys!

So I just signed up for Goodreads and added a little widget on the side here so you can see what I'm currently reading. You could also check out what I've read, it's not completely updated yet but I'll get there.

That's all I had for now!

Readers

Good day to you all! It's 11am here and I've basically just gotten out of bed (technically I'm still in bed). Well I'm ill so that's my excuse. Today I need to do some studying and then I'm just going to chill so that hopefully I'm well for the weekend. Maybe I'll do a review on one of the books I mentioned yesterday. I'm not making any promises though.

I checked the statistics of this blog a few minutes ago and saw that I have readers outside of Sweden! I would really like to know who you are, why you are here and how you found this blog. So please leave a comment. I love comments.

As I'm writing this I'm placing an order at bookdepository for number two and three in the Trylle series (Torn & Ascend) and the first two in the Syrena Legacy (of Poseidon & of Triton). I probably shouldn't be buying more books but I cant stop myself, also the Syrena Legacy books I'm only buying because of the bookcircle me and my two friends started yesterday.

Anyway, leave a comment, follow on twitter or something!

Talk to you later.

September bookhaul

Hi! Thought I'd do a bookhaul post. I got a lot of new books in September. Too many actually since I don't really have time to read anything other the course material. I'd wanted to post a picture of the books but I'm sitting on campus right now and don't have access to the books! Anyway here's a list of the books I bought in September:

Harry Potter and the philosophers stone -  JK Rowling
Switched - Amanda Hocking (done reading)
Afterburn & Aftershock - Sylvia Day (done reading)
Mazerunner - James Dashner (reading)
Fallen - Lauren Kate (reading)
Shatter me - Tahere Mafi
Safe Haven - Nicholas Sparks (reading)
Evolution of Mara Dyer - Michelle Hodkins
Twilight saga white edition - Stephenie Meyer
John Green the collection - John Green (with David Levithan)

So I've read a few, am reading a few and twilight saga the white edition I bought only because they're beautiful and will look really good in my bookshelf.

Two of my friends and I decided to do kind of a book circle starting now. We're starting with Of Poseidon by Anna Banks and then continuing on that series. Should be fun. 

Anyway I'll try to do a review on the books I have read soon.

Talk to you later (hopefully)!
