Started reading Raised by Wolves by Jennifer Lys Barens

I really need to stop misplacing books. Only because my current reading list is really long. Yet I still add more books. Anyways, this is another library book I got when I picked up Mind Game, where ever that book decided to hide. Since I seemed to have misplaced Mind Game, I figured I would read this book. I know nothing about the book. Like literally. I'm actually making this post before even reading the book. Usually I read about a chapter or two before I post, but I guess I wanted to do something different. So no first impressions on this book, unless I go by the cover. And I know that I've been slacking hardcore. Blame the recent Kdrama that I just had to be curious enough to check out. Also B.A.P. came out with a new album and I'm pretty much addicted to that. South Korea is just ruining me right now it seems. But at least I can say that I started writing again. Finally! You have no idea how much I was struggling for three months trying to write at least something. I never know what to do when I can't do something that I'm highly passionate about. Even reading has been hard because of it. But that's enough of me rambling. I have a book to read, or at least try to. I must resist the Kdramas calling my name. So until next time......

I give up

I give up on this whole doing video updates. I know I shouldn't but I have no choice. We all know that I finally found my camera. The only problem is that the thing is dead. Everyone is going to be like, "Lyssa, why don't you just charge it?" I'll tell you why I can't just charge it. I can't find my charger for the life of me. Its no where in my house. So I can't charge my camera in order to do video updates. I know I can buy a new charger, but that will just take forever. Also I was planning on buying a new camera anyways. But first I have to be an adult and pay bills. This makes me highly sad. I feel like I just broke a promise for the first time ever. I try to make it a habit to not break promises. Breaking promises is like a sin to me. Because that just means that your promise was an empty one and you didn't mean it. I hate promises like that. This highly saddens me. Maybe I'll do video updates once I get a new camera. When ever that is. But until then, I'm going to go watch this Kdrama that it feels like everyone is talking about. So until next time......

Reading Mind Game

Hey fellow bookworms. Its your favorite slacker here. I figured that I should post something about one of the books I'm reading before you guys hate me too much to keep coming back. Anyways, I'm a quarter of the way through the book and its just been the two main characters trying to escape an island that is on fire with their lives. Yes it took that long in the book for them to escape from the enemy. Now the only thing against them is time and their sudden attraction for each other. Kind of makes you wonder how this is all going to go. I do enjoy the book, but can we stop with the slow beginnings. My attention span isn't long enough for that kind of thing. Almost ruins the whole book. But I'm going to head out for now. Also Happy Late Valentine's Day. Yes I know I'm like three days late. But at least I said it, right? Its the thought that counts. So until next time......

Started reading Barely Breathing by Rebecca Donovan

I'm buckling down on reading, only because nothing exciting is happening in the music world for the next few days. So no more distractions. Also I figured why not read three books at once. I've done it before, and I'll do it again. Just so I can catch up. If I had the Ipad, it would be four books because I know everyone is wondering about At Any Price right now. Trust me I'm still reading that ebook, but I have brothers that don't like to think of others and only of their video games. The little jerks. Anyways, I'm reading Barely Breathing by Rebecca Donovan. I actually decided to read this book because I was too lazy to leave my room and grab one of the books that I was already reading. But I found this little gem at a thrift store in nearly perfect condition. Like the book was pretty much brand new. Also this isn't the only book I found where it held two books out of the series, the place also had the third book as well. So basically I just bought the whole breathing series for a fraction of the price. Score for me and my personal library. Anyways, I read the first book in the series way back in like 2014 and I did attempt to read the second book, but due to certain conflicts it didn't work out too well. But I'm now reading the second book. Basically its the whole aftermath of what happened in the first book. Our main character trying to adjust to a life that didn't involve abuse and is surrounded by people who care. Also another major life change is that her mother, who abandoned her with her abusive aunt, wants to make amends. Probably feels guilty for placing her in a home that nearly killed her. Anyways, I just started reading the book and its all just a refresher since I read the first few chapters. Since the first book was so intense, I wonder what the second holds. High expectations for this book. I hope it doesn't disappoint. So until next time........

Reading Frozen

I'm only a third of the way through the book, but I figured I'd post at least something. Only because I'm sure all of you are getting sick and tired of me not posting anything. You can blame B.A.P.'s coming up comeback for that. Its distracting me. Anyways, the book still has lots of questions that I would like answered. But for the amount that I have read in the past few days, I did learn some stuff. Like the fact that the world pretty much destroyed itself and now everyone is just trying to survive. If the world in this book actually does happen, I feel sorry for the future generations. Its just sad. Also the government is even more controlling as ever. No surprise there. Only because everyone knows that the government will try to take over and be contriving at the end of the world. Its a way to avoid chaos. But maybe they are a little too controlling in the book. Who knows? Anyways, no much has happened. Our leading lady, Nat, has hired a group of guys to get her where she needs to go to find The Blue. A place where its still as beautiful as before the world ended. Only thing is that she doesn't give them much information and she would like to keep it that way. But we all know that her secrets are going to be revealed eventually. Its all a matter of when and how. So until next time.....

Reading?

I swear I'm reading. Honest. But it is taking me forever to read. I forgot about the slow books and how long it would take me. I only read about three pages a day and call it quits. Makes me kind of disappointed. Maybe I should of started with the other book instead. I haven't even picked up the one book that I got in the mail since I first got it. Maybe my motivation to read is at a low period. At least I can say that my writing has improved. Maybe I'll finally finish editing and getting another two stories done. Which also reminds me that I need to look into publishing companies again. So much to do and no motivation to do it. I'm a horrible person. So until next time....

Sorry for neglecting you guys

Hello my fellow bookworms,

Sorry for not posting anything for almost a whole week. I am reading, but not as much as I would like. I am hoping to fix that in the near future. Things have been coming up that have been interfering with my reading time. Like being extremely sick the past few days. The last thing anyone wants to do is read when it feels like their sinuses are about to explode. I seriously hate being sick. Honestly I haven't really met anyone that does like being sick. I'm sure there are some out there. Anyways, I should be good now as long as I keep drinking my tea. The same tea that I used to drink when I sang. Yes, shocker there. I used to sing. But I stopped to pursue different interests. But that is all besides the point. All I'm saying is that I'm getting better and I can go back to reading. Since all I have now is a stuffy runny nose. Its really gross when you think about it. But at least while I was sick I was able to watch my new fascination, Kdramas. It would of been my beloved anime shows, but Netflix was being a butt the past few days because everyone wants to use it in my house. So Kdramas have been what I have been watching. I started with one call The Heirs. Pretty good, but didn't like the ending. Now I'm watching one call Kill Me, Heal Me. Still trying to figure that one out, but I can't seem to look away, even though it highly confuses me in some areas. I'm going by a list that I found on the internet, so we will all see how it goes from here. But I really need to stop neglecting the important things. Like my reading and my writing. I missed a few deadlines because of my small addictions. So yell at me if I begin slacking off again. Anyways, I'm going to wrap up here for now. I got some stuff to catch up on and that includes my reading. I'm not even done with chapter two yet. Sad really.

So until next time......
