All About Books Tuesday (???)

Hmmm, I'm seriously doubting my creative skills in blog titles right now.

Oh, well, it gets the point across...

As you can tell, right now I seem to be blogging about everything (not just beauty related items).

Like I mentioned before, I think that's what I am going to do until I figure what my niche is in this whole blogging world...Not because I have to, but because I really do enjoy blogging. 

So I'm a big fan of reading...but if I'm going to be honest, it's pretty much YA (young adult) fiction books that attract and hold my attention.

I literally spend almost all my free time doing one of two things because I'm that much of an interesting person.

1. Watching YouTube Beauty videos
2. Reading YA books

Yeah, I like movies, I like hanging out and visiting family and friends, I kind of like hanging with my husband, blah, blah, blah...

What really makes me savor life's sweetest moments is being able to spend countless hours watching YouTube videos and/or being curled up somewhere reading a great book...

And now you are probably navigating your mouse cursor to the X to click out of this blog, never to return...

Well, at least my husband still likes me and thinks of me as heaven sent since my obsessions hobbies allow him time to watch sports without being "nagged" - whatever THAT means.

Ok. Moving on.

Today the third book of the Hush Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick was released. 




I was so tempted to buy it at Target today, but held myself back since another book is being released next week that I want even more than this one.

I must say, this is an interesting series so far.

At first, I was drawn to read the first book based off the cover alone (yup, I'm one of those people). And to my surprise, I liked it enough to read the next book and then happily anticipate the said book above.



Here is a brief description of the first book, Hush Hush, just to give you an overall feel of what this series is about (cuz heaven knows I can't describe 2 paragraphs into a few sentences! Just look where you are at in this post!):

For Nora Grey, romance was not part of the plan. She's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how much her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch came along. With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Nora is drawn to him against her better judgment.
But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure who to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is, and to know more about her than her closest friends. She can't decide whether she should fall into his arms or run and hide. And when she tries to seek some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel.
For Nora is right in the middle of an ancient battle between the immortal and those that have fallen - and, when it comes to choosing sides, the wrong choice will cost her life.

So, of course, this kind of reminded me of Twilight (but that's also why I probably ended up reading it) but then again, it's not, since Patch can be weird and rude way longer than Edward was in Twilight.
Anywho, overall it was an interesting read and I honestly am excited for the day when I can pick this book up. 

Have you read any of these books before?

If so, leave me a comment, I'd love to hear from ya!

FYI - I am currently reading a book called Uglies by Scott Westerfield. Good read, so far. I'll probably blog about this book (on a Tuesday - of course) once I am finished.
 

Till next time...
