Target Tuesday: Target Book Haul

I've gotten a lot of books from Target recently- so I thought I would share them. Also I'm thinking of doing a "Target Tuesday" segment here... this will probably be my last one for a while as I'm not really going to go to Target anytime soon... but I could maybe order online or something. I thought I'd let you guys know!

They've had a few Buy 2 get 1 free deals recently and that's how I got most of these books. I thought it was a pretty good deal and I knew these would be something I'd use... and now I'll probably actually have time to read everything lol.

I'll start with what I ordered online because that includes what I'm currently reading! The Majesties by Tiffany Tsao. I will probably have a review on this soon- I think I'll finish it today- but it's about 2 sisters in a wealthy family that had a lot of secrets. The story is told from the point of view of one of the sisters who is in a coma after the other sister poisoined their whole entire family. It's very interesting and it's definitely keeping me guessing.

I also ordered Jessica Simpson's Autobiography called Open Book. I've always kind of liked Jessica Simpson- I'm not a huge fan or anything... but she does have a really really interesting life. She has a lot of famous connections with celebrities that you wouldn't really think of... This is also a huge book so my idea was to read it at home and bring a smaller book to work... but I don't have work for the time being and I have a lot of time to read big books... so I might start it soon because of that anyway.

And then I bought Josie Silver's newest book The Two Lives of Lydia Bird. I preordered it- so it was cool that the preorder still counted with the buy 2 get one free. Josie Silver also wrote a book called One Day in December which I loved reading last year... and I'm just excited to start this one too! I think this will be the next one I read. It's a big book but I think it'll be interesting enough to be a quick read. This folllows Lydia Bird who loses the love of her life- but somehow finds a way to live her life as if she had never lost him while simultaneously living her normal life without him. It sounds sad and cute and interesting. I'm sure the characters will be amazing and I'm sure I'll cry more than I did for One Day in December.

Now for the ones I got in store. Before the Buy 2 get one free sale I got the book To All The Boys I've Loved Before. I want to watch this on Netflix- so I want to read the book first. I'll probably order the sequel once I finish reading this if I read it before things are more normal.

I also got 2 books from the Reese Witherspoon book club because I like reading those books. The first one is Daisy Jones and The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid which I had been wanting to pick up for a while and just finally decided to do it with this sale. This is about a band I believe... I forget exactly but I'm sure I'll have a review on this and let you guys know. I also grabbed a mystery book called The Other Woman by Sandie Jones. I forget what exactly that is about too but I think it's a mystery and I think it's about... The Other Woman. Shocking right? Lol.

And the ast book was Love, Unscripted by Owen Nicholls. This is another romance book from the point of view of a man that loves pop culture. It sounded interesting- I saw it at Barnes and Noble and wanted to get it there... but then didn't... but I couldn't pass it up when I saw it again at Target. It felt like a sign at that point!

That is it! I have also bought a lot of books from Barnes and Noble the past few months so I think I'll post that soon also but that is everything!

Bye!

It List: May 2017

Can't believe it's the last day of May... this was a great time for TV... so let's get right into it! 1) Master of None- The second season of this show was really really great! I liked the first season... but this season was just wayyy better to me for some reason... I loved that they had episodes about Italy and about New York... I think they did a really great job and I was so impressed with it... I'll have to watch the first season over again and do a Throwback Thursday on that sometime soon... but until then... season 2 was great! 2) Girl Boss- I finally got around to watching Girl Boss this month too... and I loved that show! At first I wasn't sure if I was going to like it or not... then I just couldn't stop watching it and I finished it in 2 days... which I guess is when I finished all the Netflix shows I'm talking about... but still. Girlboss was definitely really good... and I feel like I could watch this one over and over again too. 3) Unbrea...

Uhhhh... Where Have I been?

 So it hasn't been that long- but I did mention that I wanted to keep this more of a daily-ish blog than I have in years past... and my last post was the  4th and today was the 11th. Did I give up on my resolutions already?  No/Sort of... sooo basically I was kind of considering the real start of the new year January 5th... I was very busy with work things up until the 4th... the 4th was the big work event that I had to do... and then after that I could focus on whatever I wanted to focus on... and my blogs were going to be the number 1 thing that I focused on for sure... I might miss a few days... but surely I'd do something for this blog right on the 5th after the big work thing was done... so just leading up to that as long as I post something- everything is good right?  Nope- I realized my room design... needed some refreshing. And then one project turned into several projects and then that took a few days... I think I started on doing stuff on Wednesday of last ...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.30.17

Sunday 7.23.17  Sunday was a really good day… it was kind of a lazy day for me… but my dad pretty much finished most of the painting in my room… he ran out of paint before he could totally finish it up… so he’ll finish that up soon… my mom is going to the paint store tomorrow… so hopefully he can finish it up then.  He also made some really fantastic barbecue pork… it was going to be pulled pork… but the pulling process didn’t really work… I kind of prefer the texture of it sliced instead of pulled…. idk. I like pulled pork… but this sliced pork was really delicious and flavorful and good.  We went for Starbucks and Ice Cream too… which was fun. Starbucks sends a lot of bonus stars offers after 2… so even though we go in the morning- we have to go after 2 because then we’ll get bonus stars, which my dad uses in New York because it’s a little more expensive there.  And then the ice cream… nutella ice cream with crushed oreos and marshmallow…it was del...
