YOU GUYS THE IPAD SUCKS. It's random but it's true. I haven't been able to blog all month long because I am Brazil and I didn't bring my laptop and the stupid iPad does not let me write any coherent post. I've tried. Believe me. BUT ANYWAYS. Here's my sucky headerless, senseless and formatless post, but whatever, the silence has been long enough. Now, my pick this week Y'ALL KNOW IT. It's miss Oliver and her highly anticipated new novel. Now I have yet to read anything by her (I heard your gasp all the way to here) BUT I am so freakishly excited for this one you have no idea. PANIC BY LAUREN OLIVER Panic began as so many things do in Carp, a dead-end town of 12,000 people in the middle of nowhere: because it was summer, and there was nothing else to do. Heather never thought she would compete in Panic, a legendary game played by graduating seniors, where the stakes are high and the payoff is even higher. She’d never thought of herself as fearless, the ki...

Title: Dirty Little Secret  Author: Jennifer Echols Expected publication: July 16th 2013 by MTV Books Goodreads | Amazon ________________________________________ I can’t tell you for sure what I was expecting when I opened the first page of Dirty Little Secret. I mean, sure, it’s Jennifer Echols, a good time is for granted, but since she had 3 books out this year and I’ve read all her previous ones, I was a bit overwhelmed. Turns out my worries were unfounded because she hits it out of the park again. Not only did she reminded me what made her so good and made me fall in love with her writing in the first place, but also I found improvement and evolution. Somehow this book felt even more young adult to me than all of her previous ones, maybe because the emotions Bailey was going through were so perfectly described and perfectly fitted with my own emotions as a confused and hurt teenager that I couldn’t help but be blown away by how much I could relate t...

Title: The Distance Between Us Author: Kasie West Published July 2nd 2013 by Harper Teen Goodreads | Amazon ___________________________________ Awwwh I've found a new book to put on my favorite's list. Because The Distance Between us couldn't be anything but, after all the swooning and the laughing it put me through. There was no way on earth I wouldn't fall in love with this book. And I did. Hard. I love it enough to want to re-read it right now. Because it was a whole experience, more than just reading a story. It put me through the emotions of meeting an exciting new friend, of reconsidering options and choosing paths, of falling in love for the first time. It was the whole package.  Caymen was the perfect heroine because we are all Caymens on the inside, hiding our insecurities behind our security blankets (in her case, her sarcasm) and trying to work out the courage to fight for what we want. I rooted for Caymen as soon as I met her, and my fist was up in the air ...

WoW is weekly meme created by Jill at Breaking The Spine in which bloggers can share books they're excited to get soon :)     Hello again, darlings. This week's WoW is all kinds of AMAZING...       The Promise of Amazing by Robin Constantine     Wren Caswell is average. Ranked in the middle of her class at Sacred Heart, she’s not popular, but not a social misfit. Wren is the quiet, “good” girl who's always done what she's supposed to—only now in her junior year, this passive strategy is backfiring. She wants to change, but doesn’t know how. Grayson Barrett was the king of St. Gabe’s. Star of the lacrosse team, top of his class, on a fast track to a brilliant future—until he was expelled for being a “term paper pimp.” Now Gray is in a downward spiral and needs to change, but doesn’t know how. One fateful night their paths cross when Wren, working at her family’s Arthurian-themed catering hall, performs the Heimlich on Gray as he chokes on a cocktail...

Title: How Zoe Made Her Dreams (Mostly) Come True Author: Sarah Strohmeyer Published April 23rd 2013 by Balzer + Bray Goodreads / Amazon _________________________________ I was super excited to get my clean hands on this book. Honestly, it's pegged as The Devil Wears Prada meets Disney ?... SAY WHAT?! So I started this book as soon as I got it, and let me tell you, I didn't stop reading until it was over. Because HZMHD(M)CT is amazing! Such a cute, entertaining read that magically transports you to a fairyland. Everything is included, charming princes, bitchy princesses, wicked witches, and funny furries. I loved the book's premise, a girl intering in one of the most famous theme-parks in the country, forced to play assistant to the evil queen/manager of the park. And let me tell you, Miranda Presley has nothing on this Queen! she makes Zoe feed caviar to her dog, prepare her breakfast, play cinderella in one unfortunate ocassion ( Le Spastic anyone?) and ...
