  Today, I will write about the book All The Bright Places by Jennifer Niven.  I would recommend the age rating of this book to be 12+ and the genre of this book is romance💖 , I am giving this book 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ because it is now one of my favorite romance novels.  This book has its happy parts, however, the end of the book for me was heart-breaking and a dramatic twist at the same time. This novel is about 2 people named Violet Markley and Theodore Finch, who both have their own problems and their own lives.  Violet has never been the same since her sister, Eleanor was killed in a car accident, and is afraid of many things.  Theodore (or Finch as everyone calls him) is dealing with depression and thinks of suicide.  When Violet and Finch meet on the ledge of their school bell tower everything changes for them forever.  They fall in love, and little by little they begin to learn more about each other more and more. If you are a person who loves a dram...

  NOTE:  I tried to make all party ideas appropriate for all ages!  Hope you all enjoy 🎃. Idea #1- Decorate your own cupcakes or cookies:  This is a fun activity for everyone to have the opportunity to show off their creative skills.  You can buy or make your own cupcake or cookie bases and whip up the icing in separate bowls for people to choose from.  For more fun, put out some cute sprinkles! Idea #2- pumpkin painting:  Get together some plastic pumpkins, acrylic paint, and sharpies!  Paint and design your own plastic pumpkin!   It can be done as an art activity or even as a challenge! Idea #3- Haunted room:  Create your own haunted room wherever your party is taking place!  A good thing about this idea is that you can make it appropriate for any age.   Idea #4-  oobleck: This is a good activity for kids, however, this is a messy activity, and a good space to make oobleck is in a bathroom or basement.  G...

  Today I will be reviewing the book And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie *spoiler-free!*.  Let's start! The genre of this book is Mystery and the age rating of this book is 12+ due to the violence inside the story.  My rating of And Then There Were None out of 5 stars: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  it was a very gripping read! The book is about 10 people who are invited to go to Soldier island for a vacation by the mysterious "U.N Owen".  Then when a storm picks up they are unable to leave the island, and soon enough, one by one they begin to get murdered.  Will any of them survive?  The murders are based on the poem "10 little soldiers" which is actually very interesting.  Comment if you read this book already and enjoyed it or if you are planning to read it.

  Today I will be reviewing the book Everything Everything, by Nicola Yoon. This book is fiction and the genre of this book is romance 💖.  I would recommend this book for young adults/teens ages 13+ as this book does have one "making love" scene but does not go into much detail.  This book is about an 18-year-old girl, Madeline Whitter (or Maddy) who has never been outside because she is allergic to the outside world, so she has been basically isolated in her house for 18 years.  Until she sees a new neighbor move in next door- a boy named Olly and his family.  Over time you see Maddy and Olly's relationship and chemistry grow and you will see if Maddy decides to continue to live her life in a bubble as if she never met Olly or risk everything for love.   Another thing I loved about this book is the artwork on the cover as well as inside the book.  The little doodles add a special and unique touch to this book.  Comment below if you read thi...

Today I am going to be sharing tips for people that want to start a Blog.  Let's get going! 1. decide what platform you want to use to Blog: a few platforms for blogging are Blogger (the one I use), Squarespace, WordPress, and Wix. All links are posted at the bottom of the Blog for you to check out and review. 2. Writing:  One of my biggest tips for starting a blog is DO NOT WRITE AN INTRO BLOG.  Instead, write your first Blog about something you are interested in and want to tell other people about, or even just write a tutorial Blog.  Also, be patient- it may take weeks, months, or years for people to find you.  If you wish, you can also get a text editor such as Grammarly or Wordtune and I will link both editors at the bottom of the Blog. 3. Help people find your Blogs:  Make another social media account for you to share your Blogs on such as Twitter or Facebook.  This method helps- I use it all the time. 4. Comments:  If you would not like to ...

Do you hate school right now 😡?  If you are, here are a few tips on hopefully changing that attitude! Why do you hate school? : You MUST have a reason why you do not like it!  Is the work too hard or perhaps you detest rising early?  To fix this problem, ask yourself the question above "why do I hate school?".  Once you figure out your answer, find your situation on the list below: 1. I HATE getting up early ⏰:  I am with you- let me just say, I am not an early riser!  It can be tough to drag yourself out of bed in the morning, especially when you are half asleep.  For this situation, I would say to go to bed early if you have to rise early (the more sleep the better) and get rid of ALL sleeping distractions (devices, TVs, etc).  Or if you have a wonderful imagination, think about how you will feel when you go to bed at the end of your day! 2. I don't understand the work 😕:  If you do not understand the school work don't be afraid to admit ...
