I'm seriously becoming a huge fan of Laurie Halse Anderson. Her last book that I read I few through in one sitting, and the same was true about this book. As soon as I started reading Wintergirls one Sunday morning, I could not put it down until I had finished the entire thing. I rated this book 5 out of 5 stars, and I would recommend this to teens and young adults who are interested in novels about teens in real life struggling with real life issues.
A bullet journal is basically any notebook you want turned into everything that you need. For me, it's a place to plan out my day, create to do lists, journal, and take notes. To you a bullet journal might be something completely different. That's the best part about bullet journaling--you make it work for you. This post is going to show you how I personally do my daily pages. I am hoping it inspires you! But by all means, don't forget that a bullet journal is YOURS and you should make it suit you.
This books was such a disappointment. I actually would not recommend it at all. The author is too detailed on minor characters, events that don't matter, and plot lines that should not have even existed in the first place. The book is absolutely all over the place with at least 5 different things going on at once. I think that in an attempt to be something different than the recently popular vampire novels this book was written to include everything and the kitchen sink!
My journal is my everything. It's my planner, my blog schedule, and my place to keep my thoughts and notes. I plan out videos in it, I write about my day, I keep track of memories, and I write out difficult times. My journal loosely follows the bullet journal system, but mostly it's created in my own system that works for me.
This book is the second novel in the Iluminae files series (following the first book: Illuminae). Now-a-days it can be hard to find a second book that is just as good as the first. But this book blew my mind and might even be considered better than the first. I fell in love with these new characters just as I did in the first. I'm already dying for the third!!
This book was a little underwhelming for me. All of the hype on the internet and numerous amazing book reviews I read about it had really gotten my hopes up; but, in the end, the book seemed to be just another standard novel written to stir discussion. The meaning behind the book, and the fact that this book can be a good resource for students or teens going through similar issues, is the only reason I felt I needed to give it 4 stars.
