I Don't Know about You, but I'm Feeling 22

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22...and thanks Taylor Swift, I've been dying to say that all year. It's December, which is my birthday month, and you know, Christmas, but whatever, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY. SOON. SOTHEREWILLBEAGIVEAWAY. I was planning to go back to the WB Harry Potter Studio Tour, but the best thing I've learned about having a birthday so close to Christmas is, to not plan anything. They usually get ruined, either because of ice on the roads, snowing or raining. I love snow, I do, but going to see 30 Seconds to Mars with boots is a problem. Ask Amber.

I was going to post this up on the 23rd, but I'm on hiatus then so thought I'd run it now up until the 29th, when I'll be back.

Now, endure 4:04 minutes of Taylor Swift and you will be rewarded!

New World Order

Review: Captive

Captive
Author: Aimee Carter
Publication Date: November 25th 2014
Publisher: Harlequin Teen
~A copy was provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review~

For the past two months, Kitty Doe's life has been a lie. Forced to impersonate the Prime Minister's niece, her frustration grows as her trust in her fake fiancé cracks, her real boyfriend is forbidden and the Blackcoats keep her in the dark more than ever.

But in the midst of discovering that her role in the Hart family may not be as coincidental as she thought, she's accused of treason and is forced to face her greatest fear: Elsewhere. A prison where no one can escape.

As one shocking revelation leads to the next, Kitty learns the hard way that she can trust no one, not even the people she thought were on her side. With her back against the wall, Kitty wants to believe she'll do whatever it takes to support the rebellion she believes in—but is she prepared to pay the ultimate price?

Bear with me, I'm probably going to ramble. It's pretty simple. One word. Whoa. Aimee Carter has stepped up her game in Captive, no doubt. Don't get me wrong, I loved Pawn, but I was a little worried wondering where it would go from the ending, I didn't want it to be the same thing, in the same position, but it so wasn't. Captive has brought it's gloves and the action starts straight away with a lot of whoa moments and doesn't hold back the punches.

So, how was everybody's week? Mines been eh. I believe I'm getting into a blogging funk and haven't felt like reading much since finishing Anna, Lola & Isla, and my two current reads are going sloooooow, not that the books are slow (okay, The Bone Season is) but everything seems to be dragging and blah, maybe it's the holidays? I always seem to get into a depressive mood for some reason. But anyway, books!

DNF Review: Get Even (Oh-so-fucking-believable)

Get Even
Author: Gretchen McNeil
Publication Date: September 16th 2014        
Publisher: Balzer & Bray
~A copy was provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review~

The Breakfast Club meets Pretty Little Liars in Gretchen McNeil’s witty and suspenseful novel about four disparate girls who join forces to take revenge on high school bullies and create dangerous enemies for themselves in the process.

Bree, Olivia, Kitty, and Margot have nothing in common—at least that’s what they’d like the students and administrators of their elite private school to think. The girls have different goals, different friends, and different lives, but they share one very big secret: They’re all members of Don’t Get Mad, a secret society that anonymously takes revenge on the school’s bullies, mean girls, and tyrannical teachers.

When their latest target ends up dead with a blood-soaked “DGM” card in his hands, the girls realize that they’re not as anonymous as they thought—and that someone now wants revenge on them. Soon the clues are piling up, the police are closing in . . . and everyone has something to lose

Here's some advice while reading Get Even. Get Lost.

Okay, that's mean. The DGM team might try and pay me back by finding some humiliating video of me (there's none of the sort, unless I was drunk. Moving on...) So here's a nicer way of saying it.

When your brain tells you to stop.

STOP.

On What People Call "Gay" Music

This post was originally for #LGBTApril month but I couldn't seem to get it finished in time, and I was going through my draft posts the other day and while it's not longer #LGBTApril or about books, and while I love book blogging, why not add a little something different? (And okay, any excuse to talk about music really.) So I'm combining another one of my loves, music. I read an interview ages ago, and I'm not sure which one it is so I've linked the two that I re-found today, with Tegan and Sara, where they're asked about their sexuality effecting their music, and how others see that music because of being gay.
