What I've been up {Blog & Life Update}

Hello everyone! I just wanted to give y'all an update on what I've been up to and such. I'm currently dealing with an awful sinus infection (I know eww) and I've been working a TON of hours so I'm a bit run down at the moment. I've decided to take it easy on the blog so I can focus on feeling better and get some rest. Hopefully I'll begin feeling better once my antibiotics kick in and I get some much needed rest this weekend. That being said I'll still be around but I won't be blogging on a set schedule so to speak. Since I haven't had much energy I've been reading pretty slowly. I'm currently reading Fallen by Lauren Kate. I had planned on reading the whole series in October but I just didn't have the extra time to this month. I've also decided to switch it up a little so I'll be starting a New Adult novel titled Dirty Like Me this weekend as well. Hopefully I'll be able to post my review soon for that one but we...

All About That Cover: Furthermore by Tahereh Mafi

" All About That Cover " is a weekly feature that focuses on the differences between various book covers of the same book, such as cover changes, covers from different countries as well as special editions. U.S. vs French Cover U.S / English Edition French Edition I'm absolutely in love with the English edition of this book! That being said, I like the French edition but when I look at it it reminds me of a romance novel and not a YA fantasy.  Which cover is your favorite?
