The Great Gatsby Read Along

Okay so I admit I wasn’t the most astute reader in high school. I got by but I never read all of the books I was supposed to. I was a Cliff’s Notes queen and proud of it. (Teachers all over cringe!) But I can proudly say I never read The Great Gatsby because it was never required of me to. Now with the movie coming out and my first boyfriend Leonardo DiCaprio playing Gatsby himself I have no choice but to finally see what it is about. Because the thing is, every time I ask someone what it is […]

Review: The Elite – Kiera Cass

Review: The Elite – Kier..

Happy Release Day for The Elite! If you haven’t read it or The Selection and are fans of The Bachelor/Bachelorette, get on that. I hate that show and loved these two books. Book Crack I tell you! BOOK CRACK! GAH!!!!!!!!!!! That was basically my thought the whole time I was reading The Elite. I mean I was an emotional wreck for two days every time I picked it up and it still hasn’t passed. It had been a long time, Pandemonium by Lauren Oliver and Insurgent by Veronica Roth long, since I felt the kind of stress I did reading […]

With The Elite coming out in a few short days it was only fitting that today’s Second Chance Sunday be brought to you by The Selection, the first is this crazy addictive series.

I am so confused why I have heard mixed things about this book. It was fantastical! I loved the characters and the story and the setting. I loved everything about it. I don’t quite understand why it […]

Handbags

Handbags

Handbags are a passion of mine. I feel they have the potential to completely switch up a look and to add some interest to it. I’m okay admitting that I am a handbag junkie. I’ve gotten better since I purchased my Michael Kors Hamilton Tote but I still like to look and if something jumps out at me I have no problem making the purchase. Below are a few bags in different price ranges. You will notice in the Splurge group they are all neutral/basic colors. That’s because I consider bags like that to be investment pieces and you should […]
