I love reading! Do you? -BookPics Is Curious-

I never really thought bad things, really really bad things could happen to such good people. Not that this "bad" thing is anything new. But I always thought that something would give, you know? Like, life would be a little easier, friends would be easier to come by, money would be much more reachable. And a lot more. But now, my mom's been sick since fall last year and I thought it would somewhat change me, change me and my aversion to socialize, change me and my fear of new things, change me and my low self esteem, change me and my struggling to make decisions, change me and a whole family. The only thing so far that's really changed is my mom, I've seen her grow slowly and constantly and without a pause, weaker. Her family abandoning her and my dad's family being there when I thought they wouldn't really. I've seen my dad get years older in a matter of months, both my sisters and I live in denial. And my relationship with God take a nosedive....

¡¡¡Middle Of The Week Reads!!! It's wednesday! Which means you're either overly excited because the week is halfway through... or you're completely depressed because you feel like the weekend is never going to come. Either way I hope you're reading something and this wednesday what's currently keeping me up at night is, Be With Me by J.Lynn I started this yesterday and I'm almost done, you have no idea, NO idea how much I had been waiting for this tittle. I missed the chance to get the galley so I was impatiently waiting to FINALLY get to read Jase's story :D And while I'm certainly enjoying it so far my favorite remains the first one, Wait For You. Hopefully something will happen in this book that'll make me change my opinion XD What are you guys reading this Wednesday?

-Review- Picture Perfect by Alessandra Thomas

Goodreads Shortie: ... When Cat faces her fears and bares it all for the class, she realizes that she's posing naked in front the most gorgeous, buffest guy she's ever seen in her life. He asks her out after the class, and after one steamy night together, Cat's absolutely smitten ... Goodreads Amazon  (It's FREE on Kindle!) My Thoughts (Recommend this book for readers 17+) This was my first 2014 read and while it didn't exactly blew my socks off it definitely left an impression. Being a big girl myself I gotta say it's normal for me NOT to find big-sized girls in the books I enjoy reading but now and then I find the rare book that features a girl like that and in this case the girl is the main character and the whole story/book revolves around her and her size/weight. I'm being honest here when I say I really liked the author's writing BUT didn't like that main character's voice that much. Picture Perfect is about not...

Rowe  Publication date: October 3rd 2013 Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance Synopsis: Bookish college sophomore Sydney Baker wants Evan Taylor with every ounce of her being.

And it doesn’t take long for their close friendship to blossom into something more. Unfortunately for Sydney, secrets from the past soon put her relationship with Evan to the test.

-Cover Reveal- Tousle Me by Lucy V. Morgan

Tousle Me: A New Adult Parody by Lucy V. Morgan Publication date: December 13th 2013 Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance Synopsis: He’s exquisitely hot. Exquisitely tousled. Exquisitely screwed in the head. Cammibelle Hicks just wants to survive her first year of college. Desperate to forget her troubled past, she throws herself into her degree and book review blog. So what if her life is one long tumblr page of grumpy cat GIFs? She doesn’t need to get out more, and she definitely doesn’t need a man. Hunter von Styles approaches life like he’s spoiling for a fight: with a tempting scowl. A cage-fighting, ex-rocker billionaire, it’s unclear why Hunter’s at college. Frankly, it makes no sense. Then Cammie falls into him—literally—at a party, and he’s obsessed. He needs her more than a moist towelette at a barbecue. Though Cammie’s friends warn her against Hunter, she can’t resist his charms; especially not when he buys her shoes. And GoodReads. And a unicorn. But wh...

-Review- Bully by Penelope Douglas

Goodreads  shortie: My name is Tate. He doesn't call me that, though. He would never refer to me so informally, if he referred to me at all. Goodreads Amazon My Thoughts (I'd recommend readers from the age of 15 and up) I like to think I've always been good at telling people how a certain book, story, plot, character, etc... I've read about affects me in some ways or others... Whenever I write a review is much more than a review for me, is like a mini story of what I went through when reading said book. And in a way I think I've pulled it off so far. The stories and books that I've loved are and forever will be in my heart and mind, always there coming to mind now and then, appearing in my dreams some nights and well... You know, the usual stuff. I've been moved and affected by so many books in my life I've lost count. Every book that I love leaves a piece of it and the author in my soul and I'll carry that with me forever. But n...

-Blog Tour, Review- Then, Now, Forever by Teodora Kostova

Hi guys! So excited to welcome you to my stop on the book tour!! :D I'm going to share my thoughts on the book with you all even though it'll be a mini review I know I'll be able to portray every single feeling this book inspired in me. THEN "Gia had let Beppe into her life so easily, as if it was the most natural thing in the world. She’d held him when he’d hurt so badly he’d thought he might die; she’d talked him down when he’d been so angry he’d considered doing something he’d regret for the rest of his life. Gia had saved his life. At least once he needed to be strong for her. This right now, this moment, was theirs. It belonged to them, not to abusive or dead fathers, not to guilt, regret or sorrow, not to the past or the future." But will their love survive when tragedy separates them? “I have to go, Gia. I’m tired and I feel empty. I know you need me, but I have nothing left to give you. I need to heal.” “I miss you so much it’s hard to breathe.” NO...

Welcome to the release day Blast for Teodora's Heartbeat book #2! Hope to have the review done soon! Then  Gia had let Beppe into her life so easily, as if it was the most natural thing in the world. She’d held him when he’d hurt so badly he’d thought he might die; she’d talked him down when he’d been so angry he’d considered doing something he’d regret for the rest of his life.  Gia had saved his life. At least once he needed to be strong for her . This right now, this moment, was theirs. It belonged to them, not to abusive or dead fathers, not to guilt, regret or sorrow, not to the past or the future. But will their love survive when tragedy separates them? “I have to go, Gia. I’m tired and I feel empty. I know you need me, but I have nothing left to give you. I need to heal.” “I miss you so much it’s hard to breathe.” Now Beppe was still Gia’s closest friend. But they’d never be anything more than that again. Remembering what it felt ...
