Will Grayson, Will Grayson Tour


I was so lucky to be apart of the amazing idea that Jessica had over at Reading is Sexy. You can read about the details there.

Initially, I had no idea what Will Grayson, Will Grayson was about. All I knew was that it was written by John Green (one of my favorite authors) and David Levithan (someone I've heard great things about.) I try to keep an open mind when picking books to read; thank goodness for that!

This book is full of awesomeness! I laughed so much while reading it that my husband thought I was going insane. The characters are so real and loveable. I read a lot of YA books and sometimes the storylines can get repetitive and predictable. This was NOT the case with Will Grayson, Will Grayson. The storyline is completely orignal and inspiring. I. Could. Not. Put. It. Down. This book isn't just for young adults, it's for everyone. The message is incredible and the delivery is amazing. I can't wait to own my own copy!

Okay, so I lied.


I haven't been posting more often. This is mainly because I suck! I will make no excuses for my lack of blogging.

On to better things, I've been reading some pretty awesome books lately. I have fallen in love with the author John Green. I've read two of his books (Looking for Alaska and An Abundance of Katherines) and I'm on my third, Paper Towns. I read a lot of YA fiction, and it is really refreshing to read a book from the male's POV.
In other news, I got a new job!!!!!!!!! I know, right? FINALLY! My hubs is so happy that I'm working another job. I now teach part time at a community college! I love it so far. It's much better than teaching high school kids. I only teach two nights a week which is great!
I know I've said this before, but I really do want to become a better blogger. I hope I don't disappoint you (all seven of you) and myself. Hopefully, I'll be back tomorrow.
