Two Reviews and a Video
Cinder by Marissa MeyerMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The first thing that I really noticed was that I read the first few chapters. The time just seemed to fly by.
I really liked Cinder and I thought Iko was so cute. I liked Prince Kai and I found myself mildly annoyed with Adri and Pearl.
Story wise I thought it was good. The plot moved a really good pace. I liked the way things unfurled.
But what really had me fascinated was the worldbuilding. I'm a sucker for it. The whole world is so fascinating. I mean cyborgs, androids, and aliens? The moon as a planet? Count me in!
I really liked this book and I'm excited to read more.

The Bell Jar by Sylvia PlathMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I had heard about this book even before I could grasp what an enigma Sylvia Plath was. I knew the book was about mental illness. But I put off reading it until now.
I feel that Esther as a narrator is very blank. She has personality but it's diminished. When I was going through my own illness I felt blank inside so I could relate.
I related to this book but the wow factor wasn't here for me. With her poems I feel there's so much talent but this book while good just didn't do for me. I feel if she had written another book then maybe her skills could have grown. I very much prefer.her poems and even her journals. I feel like this book is missing passion.

I finally have my internet back and I have access to my Nook books now that I have a tablet though I kinda wish I would have bought a tablet in the first place. My poor Kobo is going unused.

The Stranger I Married Review + Vlog Update
The Stranger I Married by Sylvia DayMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I picked up this book based purely on the cover. I glanced at the title and blurb but lbr the cover got me. Not the original one but the reddish one.
I really enjoyed this book. I liked Gray and Pel as the main. But partway through I grew more intrigued with Trenton and Abby. I legit enjoyed their bits the most. I'm sad this is a single title.
4 Stars. I really liked it but I didn't love it.

I'm intending to change the layout around here. I also changed the name of the blog but I don't know if that's taken affect. I'll update the url change on the blogger list.

Ariel's Gift Babbling and Today's Video
Ariel's Gift: Ted Hughes, Sylvia Plath, and the Story of Birthday Letters by Erica WagnerMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I have become fascinated with this woman. It amazes me that if she were alive today she would be my grandma's age yet I like she's me. Idk I just feel connected to her. A bit too much I think.

Currently Reading Video of the Week
I thought I'd try this out. Every week I will upload a video where I talk about what I'm currently reading. That sounds simple right? Let's see if I can keep my part of the bargain.
