COVER REVEAL: Endlessly by Kiersten White

Yes, yes, I know most of you have seen this already but I wanted to jump on the bandwagon because this cover is simply amazing.

Not going to lie, but Evie looks stunning in purple! I think it's her hair color. If Evie were a brunette it wouldn't look as good. No offense to the brunette's out there because I'm one myself. But the blonde hair brightens the purple.

Waiting on Wednesday: Insurgent by Veronica Roth

Waiting on Wednesday
"Waiting On Wednesday" is a weekly event, hosted by Breaking The Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
My Pick:

Insurgent Divergent #2Author: Veronica RothReading Level: YARelease Date: May 2012Available: Amazon / Barnes & Noble / The Book Depository
Summary (from goodreads): One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.

Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.

New York Times bestselling author Veronica Roth's much-anticipated second book of the dystopian Divergent series is another intoxicating thrill ride of a story, rich with hallmark twists, heartbreaks, romance, and powerful insights about human nature.
My thoughts: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm excited if you couldn't already tell. Lol. May CANNOT come soon enough!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween is my favorite holiday, like, EVER! So what did I do this Halloween? Nothing . . . Yet. I was supposed to go out and party on Saturday night but the snow ruined my plans. I had a great costume too! A Spider Queen. What is that, you ask? Well, let me explain it for you. My crown was a giant spider with long legs. I had a purple-sequined masquerade mask. My eyes were going to be a dark purple smoky-eye with thick fake eyelashes. My lips were going to be done up in nothing but purple sequins to match my mask. I was also going to "glue" two little fake spiders on my face. One on my jaw line and the other near my mask. My outfit was simple. Black shirt with a cobweb drawn on it, a black tutu with purple lace, black leggings, black and grey striped knee socks with spiders dangling off the sides, and black pumps. But it never happened. Maybe next year.

But my Halloween hasn't been completely ruined. Why, you ask? Well, see these guys to the right? They're doing their live Halloween investigation at Pennhurts State School and Hospital better known as Pennhusrt Insane Asylum. And guess whose cousin is a co-owner. Mine is. So because he loves me so much, he's getting us in before Ghost Hunters goes live so we can meet the people from the show. I'M SOOOOOO EXCITED‼ The only thing that sucks is I have work at 5:30am today and tomorrow. Don't worry, I'm sleeping right now. Thank God I scheduled this to post at 12:01am. So anyway, Pennhurst is creepy enough during the day and at night it's insanely dark so I suggest going to see it either during the day or on a cloudless night. Now I will leave you with some pictures. The first one is an original picture of how big Pennhurst actually is. The other pictures are present day ones. Enjoy! And have a safe and happy Halloween‼
