Posts of the Week 8.7.16-8.13.16

8 Comments

I... have honestly not read as much this week as I should have. Well, not as many blog posts. I’ve actually read a lot of books, most of which I probably won’t review, but hey, I finished The Raven Boys and I’m rereading Waterfall, which I almost never do. Reread, I mean. Not Waterfall in particular.

Anyways. On to the posts!

A Darker Shade of Magic review by Shar. Her review is so amazing and descriptive; I gotta find this one somewhere.

Creative Limitation: Writing Contest!! by Keturah. I'm not very good at six-word stories, but this looks like a cool idea, and I'm at least going to try to come up with something, lol

Let Loose A Little Darling by Noor. After reading all the amazing poetry by other bloggers, it amazes me that I ever didn't enjoy poetry. Like wow, little Alexa, what were you thinking????

The Winners! If you voted in the Fandom Studio awards last week, these are the winners (please note the glorious amount of Percabeth).

The Craft Journal. An online haiku magazine started by one of the girls I met at YoungArts. In their own words, "Haikus are less about commitment... they capture the feeling of a single moment in time, like a photograph."

And that's it for this week! What have you been reading lately, on blogs or in books? Do you write poetry? How hard do you ship Percabeth? (hint: should be very hard) Thanks for reading, and I will see you in the comment section!

Thanks for these links! I'll have to run over and check them out. As you do. And thanks for visiting The Endless Oceans of my Mind!

It's always great to have links to good reviews. I get a lot of books for my TBR list. Thanks, Alexa. As to reading: I've just finished Between Two Fires and a Love that Disturbs. I"m now almost done with The Namesake. Great variety!

Shar's review of ADSOM was very interesting although I myself didn't really enjoy the book. It was too slow for my tastes. :P Great choices, as always, Alexa!

(Also in case you have time I have tagged you for a thing: http://semilegacy.blogspot.com/2016/08/blogging-community-tag-again.html)
