An A-word?!

Hey you guys! Emily here, to talk about my newest obsession,

 one of my favorite authors of all time (and a long time family friend!), 

Joy Preble!

(Yes I did have to put her name as a rainbow, she's just that awesome.)

 She's a YA author, and has written 4, count em, 4 books you can buy, including;

the Dreaming Anastasia Series

(A very cool trilogy set in Chicago about Anne and her adventures with Ethan and Russian folklore. I HIGHLY recommend these books, they're a fast paced read with a wonderful storyline for each!)

and now...

the new...

(drumroll please...)

(thanks, David Tennant gif)

THE SWEET DEAD LIFE!

   

It's a story set in Houston, Texas and I'll give you the description that she does, so I won't spoil anything. :)

"14-year-old Jenna Samuels is being poisoned. So she does the unthinkable: gets in a car with her stoner brother Casey. They crash rushing to the hospital, and Jenna awakes in the ER to find that Casey has died - and come back as her guardian angel. He's now nauseatingly attractive to everyone and even more annoying to her, but they must work together to uncover the shocking truth about her poisoning and what it has to do with their father's disappearance."

Sound good?  

(Well, it is.)

I got my copy this afternoon, (signed! YAYAYAYAYAY!) and I've only read about an hour and a half's worth (ie: halfway through it, I read quickly) but I can tell you guys one thing. THIS BOOK IS AMAZING.

It combines the perfect amount of jokes, teenagerisms, and language.

(ALSO, THE A-WORD IN THE TITLE IS NOT ME CURSING, IT'S WHAT JENNA CALLS AN ANGEL, YOU'RE WELCOME.)

I recommend picking up a copy soon, and I guarantee, you won't regret it. ;)

(You can go check her out at her website, on her blog, or stalk, I mean follow her on twitter @joypreble)

On another note, Annabelle, River and I are going to have a hectic schedule for the next few weeks as some of us are going to summer camp. So, we'll probably be on hiatus for a little bit, and we'll keep you guys updated with posting when we can. 

HAVE A GREAT WEEK!

As always,

and see you next... well... soon, no.... that's not it...  

sometime in the future.

Maybe.

If I feel like it. 

'Til then!

Emily



EDIT: Check out Camp Nanowrimo, a fun adventure for writers, professional or not, to embark on, starting July first! I will definitely be participating, so you should too! (Link here) 

OFFICIALLY SUMMER VACATION!!!!

Hey people, it's Annabelle here again. 

So today was the 'official' last day of school for us here in (enter place here) and I'm sooooo happy to finally have to be rid of teachers and annoying people for the summer! 

My computer has not been working lately so I am surprised it is letting me type this much on it. 

ANYWAY..... FINALLY SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

None of my pictures are loading correctly ( I really need to figure out what's wrong with my computer) so I'm going to stick to TYPING HAPPILY IN CAPS!!! 

List of things I will not miss over the summer

1. Annoying kids who don't want to learn and distract everyone else in the process

2. Teachers who have given up on their students

3. Projects 

4. Homework 

5. Waking up early

Just to name a few ( we all know I'm not the only one who will not miss these things either) but I must admit there are a few things I will miss but will hopefully get back next year....


1. My wonderful friends ( not talking about the ones I know for a fact I will be seeing a few times this summer ( River and Emily) :)        .)

2. Funny talks at lunch

3. Having weird conversations on the bus

4. Not having to be at home 

5. Making memories with people I may not see again...


ANYWAY.... SUMMER to me that will probably mean sitting in my room on the Internet or Netflix with a spray bottle of water to ward off my family. This should be interesting.....

Hope you all have a great weekend.  :)

Until next time,

- Annabelle ;D 

HAY THERE.

Well, as very few (i.e: River and Annabelle) of you know, tomorrow is the last day of school for us here in our town of I'MNOTGONNASAY. This is a cause for some celebration, right?

Wrong.

I'm just that kind of evil, so enjoy the feels!*

  MUHAHAHAHAHAHA. 

A question for the Sherlock fandom, thanks to colorsofmadness,

Which sound was louder? 

Sherlock's bones cracking when coming into contact with the cold, hard ground

 or John's heart breaking?

And I'm just getting started. 

Here's a beautiful Les Misérables/Torchwood mashup from Rosered624,

 Doesn't it kill your mortal hearts?

An old picture I rediscovered thanks to ayumisutcliff, 

Ah, that one just pulls at the heartstrings, no?

Not mine, since I don't have one. 

Right in the childhood, desensitizemecapn, right in the childhood.

Just look at the look on Dory's face... 

Now a short message from Amy, to Rory. (thatstrangehannahgirl)

Raggedy man, goodbye.

 And maybe, you don't want to go, thewickedsilence?

Haven't broken your heart and made you cry yet?

 

 

 

 

...

 

 

 

 

I can fix that.

(Well, for-shits-and-hiddles can.)

 Do you hear that? It's the sound of your heart snapping in two.

 

 Your tears are like this rain, (rise-and-fall-of-it-all)

 that pour on a sad David Tennant.

So, Happy Emily's-Gone-And-Ruined-Our-Lives-Through-Feels Day!**

This right here is a wonderful description of me today:

ENJOY!

As always,

 and I'll be back on Friday. Maybe.***

 Maybe I'll bring more feels inducing pictures, maybe I won't. It's a gamble.

 

 'Til then!

Emily

*also because I know Annabelle wants to do a celebratory post tomorrow, so I'll let her have her fun. :)

**Now an official holiday, in my book.

FRIDAY AT ALMOST ELEVEN, DON'T BLAME ME.

Hello everyone! River here. Today I was asked to do friday's post, as my fellow blog-people are having Things. Unfortunatly, Annabelle informed me that friday was reserved only for photos:( so I can't post what I was going to. I'll either do it tomorrow or tuesday, though, so it's fine. I actually did a real thing this time:) ANYHOO, This. I'm tired, and it's getting late, so I'm just gonna use some files from my desktop and see how badly I can mess with your emotions. Enjoy!

So let's start off with a false sense of security. These beautiful people...

Ok. Nice and smile-y? 

FEELS PUNCH!

Sorry, Emily. Supernatural stuff now. Although, with our constant fangirling you probably know enough about the show to get most of these even though you've never seen it.

*sniffles* well that backfired. I think I need to open a different folder...

Now some cats. Because it wouldn't be the internet if I didn't have cats.

Yes, yes. Cats are adorable. Settle down. Let's finish off with these things I marked as 'Light Feels'. Wonder what that means 0_0

UPDATE: I just looked at all of them and I still have no idea what it is. I mean, there's some happy fuzzy stuff like this...

And then I've got feelsy yet funny...

These lovely things that although may not be particularly sad, somehow trigger pain.

And then I've got these little bullets to the heart. None as bad as the actual 'feels' folder, but still...

asdugnrixabae everything I touch becomes feels.

I never meant this post to turn out like this...

I need to go sit and the corner and be disappointed in myself. Farewell, and enjoy this last few bits of randomness.

Whoops. May have gone a bit overboard. Ah well!
