Bout of Books: Like This, Try This Challenge

Hey Fantabulous Readers!

We're four days into the Bout of Books and today's challenge, Like This, Try This is hosted by the wonderful Writing My Own Fairytale.

Rules: 


1. You must recommend a book based on another book, movie, tv show, etc similar to this: “If you liked _____, you should try _____ because _____.”

2. Any genre and reading level is fine and you may use any set-up you like, so long as you’re recommending a book based on something else and explaining why.

3. Post your recommendation wherever you are posting your read-a-thon updates.


If you liked...



Then you should try...



Both of these are cute adorable love stories. Both books cover real issues in a relationship and both books give you the happy feels.

Bout of Books 11: Sentence Challenge

Hey Fantabulous Readers!

It's Day 3 of the Bout of Books! Today's challenge, the Sentence Challenge, is hosted by the lovely Book Reviews from a Christian Girl.



The rules are simple: for this challenge, I want you to pick some awesome books out and make a sentence with the first two words from each of your books.  I have tried this myself and it can be a little tricky because the lack of verbs in the first two words of the book.  Therefore, you can add another word that is not from the first two words of the books if you wish.  The more ridiculous, the better. 

Here's my sentence: 


Back in the world, it's midnight. 


Here are the books I used: 


Isla and the Happily Ever After by Stephanie Perkins
Opposition by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi

Bout of Books 11: OTP Challenge

Hey Fantabulous Readers!

It's Day 2 of the Bout of Books readathon and today's challenge is the OTP challenge hosted by the lovely Infinite Ink.

The rules are simple. Just tell me about your OTP. It doesn't have to be canon, it can be whatever you so desire. Fangirl the day away.

So my OTP is Percabeth (Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase from the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series)

Here's a picture of them.


And another.


I could honestly go on forever. Thank god there are fans who are fantastic at drawing and allow me to indulge myself in Percabeth. 

But Percabeth is seriously the best. It took five years for their relationship to even start and they went from hating each other, to being tentative friends, to being best friends, then having crushes on one another, to FINALLY becoming canon. They've been through everything together and, as cheesy as this sounds, they complete each other. Annabeth doesn't depend on him and can stand on her own as a female character. Both of them support each other and strengthen each other. And I just love them so much. They literally make me cry every time I tumblr stalk them...which is a lot.
