Hey all! I have a HUGE TBR (to be read) pile, and I’ve seen this take everywhere, so I thought I’d give it a go! 1. A book on your TBR pile you haven’t finish For this one, I’d have to say The Host by Stephenie Meyer. I think I started this at the beginning of 2012, when I was really into Twilight. I got about a 100 pages into it, and I really just couldn’t get the storyline, although I enjoyed the movie a lot. I hope to read it sometime soon, but I kind of want to wait until the whole series out (is Stephenie going to write that ever !?!). 2. A book you just haven’t had the time to read You guys, Lady Midnight by Cassandra Clare is huge. Like, 600 pages huge. And don’t get me wrong, I completely love the Shadowhunter books. In fact, I just re-read the Infernal Devices like a week ago, but man, it took so long to get through. This year I’m really trying to read 90 books, and right now I don’t have time to make such a commitment. 3. A book you haven’t read because it’s a...

Throughout my reading adventures, I have found so much series that I enjoy and love. Some, even, I’ve read multiple times. However, there are some series that I just can’t get into, no matter how much praise they receive. Still, if you see a series that you really loved in here, let me know and I’ll give ‘em a second go. In no way are these books bad, they simply haven’t caught my interest enough to keep going. Series I Have No Interest In Finishing The Trylle Trilogy by Amanda Hocking: Honestly, I don’t remember much about this series. I know I read the first two, and just had an okay feel from them. The plot wasn’t that spectacular, basically following the storyline of “girl who thinks she’s human is actually a mystical princess” troppe. I do own the third one, but I don’t ever see myself reading it, as I would also have to re-read the first two. The Gone Series by Michael Grant: Oh boy, these book are huge. I’ve read four of them, and the plot just got boring. The premis...

Nic Sheff is 20 years old and addicted to crystal meth. From the age of 11, he has been experimenting with different forms of alcohol and drugs, and from the age of 18 he has been in and out of various rehabs, but has never reached sobriety. In the fantasy world, Nic is living his life to the fullest, moving on from one adventure to the next, relying on drugs to help him live smoothly. In reality, he is a college drop-out, a sex worker, and has lost all ties with his family, including his two younger siblings.  At the same time, he is grappling with the brutal reality of living with clinical depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder, which makes him take the same drugs he’s addicted to. Going day by day, Nic explores the dark crevices of addiction in his debut and memoir. By far, I’ve never felt more emotionally attached to a book as I did with Tweak . Nic left absolutely no detail of his life, and cover every thought, feeling, and action he experienced through his years of a...
