Sorry this is kind of late, but I've been so busy with my Christmas festivities with my family. I meant to take a picture for the first day of Bookmas last night, but I managed to get distracted. I had to clean up my room from my Christmas with my family, so that I could go to bed. I'll have to post a Christmas Haul on the Instagram page sometime tonight or tomorrow morning.

1 Bookmas Tree:
(I'll post a picture on the Instagram account tonight or tomorrow (: )
2 Awful Endings:
1. Allegiant by Veronica Roth- just ugh that ending...tears
2. Rhymes With Witches by Lauren Myracle - This book left off on a cliff hanger, and didn't have a sequel. Not only that, it was just a horrid book.

1. Harry, Ron, & Hermione from the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling
2. Agatha, Sophie, and Tedros from The School For Good & Evil trilogy by Soman Chainani

6 Overhyped Releases
1. The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey
2. The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
3. Wicked by Jamie Maguire
~ My mom told me I had to add this to my list, she's tried to read it, and I've tried to read it. I really want to like this book, because I adore the musical, but I cannot.
4. If I Stay by Gale Forman
~I read this book in 2014, right before the movie was released, and it was kind of boring to me. I didn't enjoy it as much as everyone had said I would online. This book was just a disappointment to me.
5. Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier
~This book was just a huge disappointment.
6. Red Queen
~I really loved this book. I gave it a 4.5 star rating, but I felt like Epic Reads just hyped it up a bit too much.
7 Fantastic Worlds
1. The Harry Potter world
2. The Gregor the Overlander world
3. Narnia!
4. Carry On: The beautiful world that Rainbow created gave me all of the feels.
5. A Court Of Thorns & Roses: This fantastic world of faeries and magic... I absolutely adore this book.
6. The Wrath & the Dawn: The setting of this book is so magnificent and lush, and the writing is so gorgeous. This is one of my favorite books ever.
7. Wonderland: Lewis Carrol may be a pedophile and a creep, but he sure knows how to write a cool world. His books are so cook-y, but so good.
8 Fantastic Classics
1. Little Women/Little Men: Probably my favorite classics, ever. I've read and reread these awesome books since I was maybe twelve, and I just continue to love them as I get older.
2. The Little Princess: I also read this when I was really young, and every time I reread this beautiful book, I just get all the feels that I got when I was 12.
3. Anne of Green Gables: This whole series by L.M. Montgomery is just so perfect. I absolutely adore Anne's story, and I kind of relate to Anne. My mom, sisters, and grandmother always call me Anne when I get too emotional or dramatic, and I think it's hilarious because I love Anne.
3. Phantom of the Opera: I read this book for the first time this year, because I got really into Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical...the book is not really much like the musical, but I absolutely adore it..
4. Grimm's Fairy Tales: I just adore the Grimm fairy tales
5. Hans Christian Anderson's Fairy Tales: Hans Christian Anderson's tales are so amazing. Words cannot describe how much I love these fairy tales.
6. The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn: I read this in school during my junior year, and I really loved it.
7. To Kill A Mockingbird: Probably my favorite classic that I had to read in school. I really need to reread this...
8. The Chronicles of Narnia: I've loved this series since I've been really little, and the movies are phenominal. If you haven't read any of the Narnia books, then you should definitely read them sometime.
