My 2016 Summer Reading List

Image
Hey ! Ahhh, the summer holidays have finally begun. I know it's nearly the end June but I have  just finished my finals ! Summer Holidays for me have consisted of 3 things these past 3 years : books, taking care of my sister/grandma, and studying to resit exams in September because I attract failure in my finals. However, this year will be a bit different since I have found myself a job ! Woohoo. The good thing about this job that it's 3-5 hours a day so I can earn money and enjoy the summer. Let's say I sleep for 8 hours a day and work for 5 hours a day, that is a total of 13 hours. That means that I have 11 hours a day to read and catch up on all the reading I missed during the scholastic year. Listed here is a list of books that I plan on reading this Summer. © These books I bought from the bookshop. Now I must admit that I have judged these books by their cover. I was desperate to buy books and I didn't know what to buy and I didn't

Book Talk : November 9 by Colleen Hoover

Hey ! Today I am going to talk about this wonderful book that my friend lent me : 9 November. This is a young adult and contemporary book which will cause your heart to flutter with joy. You can bet that from now on November 9th won't be a regular day for me..It will be known as Fallon and Benton's day.The reason why I am talking about this book is because I have never come across a book like it. The two characters ,Fallon and Ben, only meet once a year on November 9th since Fallon moves to another state on the first November 9th. Every November 9th is packed with emotions : You will laugh, you will cry and you will definitely want to throw your book a couple of time through frustration.  © Fallon wants to be an actress but an accident ,that happens when she is only 16 years old , ruins her chances. Benton is an aspiring writer who is the same age as Fallon, and just like her went through something at the age of 16.What I love about this book is that

Lush Review : Twilight Bathbomb

Image
Hey ! Another bath bomb, another review. This time, it's about the pink beauty Lush like to call Twilight. This bath bomb has  stars shapes on the outside and a moon shape which I think it's quite appropriate for it. It makes it look super pretty...which is why I bought it :D What Lush says about this bath bomb : If sleep is evading you, this combination of essential oils will help get you ready for a good night's rest. As Twilight dissolves, it turns from the colour of the setting sun and gets darker, turning your water a shimmering deep purple. The fragrance has been designed to help you sleep: lavender is a soothing, mind-clearing and calming fragrance, used in aromatherapy to treat insomnia and aid restful sleep, while benzoin and tonka call to mind a milky caramel malt drink. What I say about this bath bomb : Okay, so something went wrong with this one. It didn't start dissolving when it touched the water, and then it suddenly dissolved half
