Updates:
Some of you may have noticed a decline in my blogging activity, specifically my reading and posting reviews. For those of you who don't know, I am a high school math teacher (Algebra 2 and AP Statistics) and a part time graduate student. So, life happens - I've been busy - there is no excuse. The good news is, we are on April vacation this week and while I have work to do and a list of projects around the house I want to get done, I have most definitely scheduled in some reading time! Here's to looking forward! :) Thank you to everyone for sticking it out with me. I hope all is well with you, please share your updates in the comments!

  1. I couldn't get into Cinder when I first tried it. It's had so many positive reviews now that I really want to try reading it again! Hoping I might enjoy it more the second time round. Happy reading!

    This week I visited UK's most beautiful library! Find me Under The Mountain

    1. I feel like I'm one of the only people left who hasn't read it, so I'm doing it lol

  2. I've heard so many great things about The Lunar Chronicles! Of course I haven't had the chance to read them myself, but I'm definitely hoping to be able to do so sooner rather than later.

    And yeah to fellow math people! I may not teach math, but I do have a Masters in Math, so I'm definitely a math person!

    1. Yup, one of the perks of working at a high school is the library access lol

  4. I have only read Cinder so far in the lunar chronicles. Cinder was very good and I can't wait to start the rest of the series.

  5. YAY for the Lunar Chronicles. I still have Cress to read, but both Cinder and Scarlet were amazing, so Cress is probably too.
    Happy reading and have a good weekend :)

  6. Cinder is one of the best books! I haven't read Scarlet yet or Cress, though I've heard that the series just keeps getting better as it goes on, kind of like Vampire Academy.

  8. As a former teacher, I totally understand! While I wasn't a math teacher, I've seen how much you guys have to grade! I have got to get started on the Cinder series, have the first one sitting on a bookshelf at my house.
    Check out my STS.
