Booking Through Thursday (40) Reading outside books

Image
Booking Through Thursday is a weekly bookish meme where participants are asked a series of questions about their reading habits. To join this or future Booking Through Thursdays Click Here . This Week BTT Asks: Outside of books, what’s your favorite thing to read? Newspapers? Magazines? Blogs? Fanfiction? Specific websites??  I used to be a big reader of magazines but now only really pick them up when waiting to be checked out at the store. I've never read much fan fiction so that doesn't really apply to me.  I do however like to read online news and check Yahoo frequently throughout the day just to stay on top of things. I also really like to read blogs/websites. I have those I follow religiously and those I might only click once or twice a week. I do try and visit at least a few new ones daily from those I find on Facebook or Twitter because variety as they say is the spice of life. I should also note that the content of the blogs & websites I vis

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly blog post hosted by Breaking The Spine . For this weeks Waiting On Wednesday I chose Angelbound by Christina Bauer. Expected Publication: December 17, 2013 by Ink Monster LLC   Eighteen year old Myla Lewis is a girl who loves two things: kicking ass and kicking ass. She’s not your every day quasi-demon, half-demon and half-human, girl. For the past five years, Myla has lived for the days she gets to fight in Purgatory’s arena. When souls want a trial by combat for their right to enter heaven or hell, they go up against her, and she hasn’t lost a battle yet. But as she starts her senior year at Purgatory High, the arena fights aren’t enough to keep her spirits up anymore. When the demons start to act weird, even for demons, and the King of the Demons, Armageddon, shows up at Myla’s school, she knows that things are changing and it’s not looking good for the quasi-demons. Myla starts to question everything, and doesn’t like
