first day of school!

I am extremely glad to say I am going to be a senior this year! Hooray for the class of 2010!

Now, onto book related stuff. I did some reading this week (or past two weeks). I dropped Eon because I just wasn't that interested, and I picked up Crash Into Me by Albert Borris. You can find my review here.

In short: it was great. However, if you're looking for a fantastic suicide book (for whatever reason you may be searching for something like that...) I would always recommend 13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher. Absolutely fantastic.

I also started At First Sight by Nicholas Sparks, for a change of pace. I have been a fan of Nicholas Sparks for awhile, but it went away for awhile as I started to discover new things. Now, I'm going back to my roots. I'm really enjoying it so far :)

I am also excited to say that I am taking a reading course in school, where we are planning on reading romantic and victorian lit (of the Austen/Bronte variety) and also global literature. I hope to expand some reading knowledge with this class.

More next week,
Chelsie

PS. Sorry about the lack of pictures and fun stuff, but it's late and I still have lots to do before getting to bed.

Teen Tuesday......

Oh well this week was kind of eventful and at the same time not. I am participating in Zombie Appreciation week, this week. Which you can find out more about that here. I am also doing a challenge for that. It is not too difficult, I just have to make a post about me accepting the challenge and then two zombie related posts during the week, which I have gone far over... teehee. You should really go check out the pictures that I found. They are hillarious.



Also this week I started the 2009 YA Challenge. And if Im not mistaken the 1st in a series challenge. If you click on the links you can see how far I am on those.
Also i just finished Audrey, Wait! by Robin Benway, last night. I dont have the review up yet but if you check in a couple hours it should be. Now im gonna start Hunted by P.C. & Kristin Cast, so that I can be fully caught up when Tempted comes out!!!

CATCHING FIRE IS HERE!

Today's the day, Teen Tuesday--Catching Fire, the sequel to acclaimed YA novel The Hunger Games, is HERE!

*dies*



What with all the contest going around, I figure I have a pretty good chance to win!

However, if I DON'T win...well, I could just wait for the paperback.

Now, I'd say something else, but isn't this all you folks at Teen Tuesday care about?
