So, um, October. Yeah Autumn is finally here, and school is a pain in the butt. But books have been good. 😀
Books/Movies/T.V./Music
- I read 8 books this month. One less than last month. I’m so behind on my Goodreads challenge lol
- Favorite book this month:
- I’ve been spending more time at the local bookstore that I’ve been helping out in, and writing little mini reviews for them! It’s fun.
- T.V. wise I watched an entire season of Carrie Diaries on Netflix while working on my three art projects due in school.
- Music wise…umm Taylor Swift’s new album?!?! I have no time for all of the celebrity drama I just enjoy her music
- Book Haul:
–Ben Trip The Accidental Highwayman by Kit Bristol

Nikki @ The Paper Sea says
Yessss! I so enjoyed our first month as Epic Rec partners 😀 Here’s to many more!
In my usual style, I completely forgot about NaNo until Oct 31st so I’m not participating this year, but good luck with your manuscript, Mary!
Mary says
Yes! Epic Recs has been so fun. Thanks about NaNo, my manuscript is a total disaster but I’m just going to go with it. Can’t wait until December comes around and the fated revisions. D:
