I know that February is the shortest month of the year but gosh that was quick!
Books:
Okay, please understand, I have been absolutely swamped with finals and play rehearsal. I only read two books this month!
The Golden Compass by Philip Pullman
Fairest by Marissa Meyer
I’m not even sure how that is even possible.
T.V.
I didn’t watch that much T.V. this month because, finals and rehearsals, but when I did it was mostly because of my art project that I had to finish for class and it was mostly me rewatching old crappy dramas. Ugh.
Movies
I didn’t see any movies in theater this month, because you know finals and rehearsal, but I did watch Captain America and The Amazing Spiderman on Amazon because I love my Marvel superheroes.
Music
The only thing of significance this month was really finding a couple new instrumental playlists to use when I’m writing/doing homework. Gosh, I feel so boring.
Blogging and Other Media:
So I sort of have big news! A while ago the girls at Lit Up Review had open applications for other bloggers who wanted to apply to be contributors. AND I GOT PICKED! I’m super excited to be contributing and working with the staff. The Main Bloggers for Lit Up Review are Willa, Grace, Emily, Jessica, and Montana. I will be contributing semi-regularly with Serena, Klaudia, Kaitlin, Bella, Martha, and Maisha.

February was so quick. Thanks I’m so excited about Lit Up.
I also read Fairest! 🙂 Two is better than none at all!
Happy March reading!
Happy March Reading to you too!
I was really swamped this month as well, so I only ended up reading two books, and I am so far behind my goal of reading 100 books this year. Here’s to a better month for reading in March, right? I’ll be prepping for Camp NaNoWriMo too! I’m doing a COMPLETE REWRITE of my novel for my third draft of editing, so I’ll start working on that during Camp NaNo. I really hope my third draft is a little bit cleaner than my first draft and second draft. Oh, and of course I’ll be studying a lot. That never seems to end.
Yeah on Goodreads it says that I have the Challenge going, but I’m not actually participating in it this year. I hated the stress of it, now I just use it to keep track of the books I’ve read.
OMG Camp NaNo is so close and I’m not even sure what I’m going to write about I have so much prepping to do ack!
