On My Reading List: Books/Magazines I'm going to try to finish very soon.

So I was sort of redoing my room and re-organizing my desk... and I just had a big pile of stuff that I wanted to keep out so that I could read it soon. I love reading and its been a while... so here's my current reading list.

Alright not really in with this stuff... but something I need to finish is Yes, Please by Amy Poehler. I started this... probably well over a year ago. Lol. It kind of breaks my heart to finish it because I feel like Amy's my friend and I've learned a lot about her and about life and about myself from this book and I don't want it to end... so I still have a few chapters left. I don't think this will be the next thing I'm going to finish... but I'll finish it in the near future because why not.

I'm going to start out with books. The first book I have on here is Amazing Amy Tattle Tail. This is based on Gone Girl's Amy... and I've read it before... but I want to watch the movie gone girl again soon and re-read this and read the next book I have on here... before or after that. Its a kids book really... but if your a grown up that knows Gone Girl... its a little creepy.

Then I have The Grownup also by the author of Gone Girl, Gillian Flynn. This is a short book, it was originally in an anthology book that George RR Martin put together about ghost stories. I think thats pretty cool. George RR Martin just asked Flynn to write a ghost story and I'm sure she delivered in a big way. The cover of this is pretty cool and creepy too... so I want to read this ASAP! I've wanted to read it for a long time... but I didn't know where the book was. But I found it today and I'm going to read it soon!

Next I have one I need to read. What Color is Your Parachute, its a job hunting book and its the best selling Job Hunting Book. I need a job... so yeah. This needs to be read. Lol.

Next I'm really really excited for Welcome To Nightvale. I love the podcast... I haven't listened to it in a while... but I think its awesome and I'm really happy that there is a book to go with it. I haven't started any of these yet... but I feel like if you like comedy, paranormal stuff and specifically the type of humor in Parks and Recreation, you'll like it. Listen to the podcast first then maybe read my review of the book and buy it. Lol.

Then I have Modern Romance by Aziz Ansari! I love Aziz and thought this would be fun to read in February for Valentines Day!

Then the last 3 are magazines. This is kind of random... but I'm subscribed to Better Homes and Gardens, Instyle and Entertainment Weekly because I ordered something online and it came with a free subscription for a certain period of time... you can opt out but I always forget to check. Anyway I like the magazines... so its okay with me.

I have one Better Homes and Gardens here, this has Jessica Alba on the cover. These I like because its about more than Homes and Gardens. It has style tips, celebrity interviews... you can see celebrities decor and its just pretty awesome. I like that a lot.

Then I have the Rolling Stone David Bowie Issue with him looking very handsome on the cover. David Bowie is my all time favorite singer and I really admire him and needed this magazine... so that is that.

And a random Entertainment Weekly. I like collecting magazines... but if the cover comes off or something I'll just throw them out. I'm big into pictures and lists instead of just reading  it... but I want to get more into reading it. This had American Crime Story on the cover... which I'm excited about! I think I posted my review on it yesterday... but if not it'll be up tomorrow cause I'm planning to write a review on it... but at this time that's the future and I'll already have this written... so yeah. Lol. But look for it or come back for it. Lol.

Byeee!

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f
