I really really want to see this movie so I decided I had to read the book. The setting is Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina. Once I picked up the book I knew it was one I would like.

Why: I was a skeptic when I first entered Rosewood, PA. I am now absolutely in love with these books! I love how the town plays into all the events that go on. I cannot wait to see what is in store for the girls in this book. I am just glad I will be sitting in a cabin reading while they experience all of this!

Spring Break Day 4

Day 4: Today I depart from Forks,we will be traveling along the WA coastline... The trip will take close to 7 hours, but will be worth everyminute of the drive since we can play "spot the county"!

Why:

Girl at Sea.... Driving down the coastline. It just seemed to fit. I also chose this book because the plot takes place in the Mediterranean. I love reading books with warm settings. It takes me away from the dreary west coast and transplants me somewhere sunny and warm! I cannot waut to read this book.

$27.95 U.S. (Hardocver)

FTC: I am not receivng compensation for promoting this book.

Why:

First off, yes this is an adult book. Big Shocker for me! I chose this book because it looked like an intriguing story. It also takes place in New York City as well as a few other fancy towns. The main reason I chose this book for the trip is for its paranormal plot. What better time than spring break to stray from the normal and read an adult book, a paranormal one at that!!!

Why:

New York City!!!! A place I wish I could go on my spring break, but sadly cannot. I chose this book because it revolves around a hotel. Thinking of hotels makes me think of traveling. This book then seemed a logical fit for my spring break trip!!!

Spring Break Day 1

Dear Readers of my blog,
Today marks the beginning of a beautiful work and school free Spring Break. Instead if sticking to the traditional blog week, I am going to spice it up. I have chosen 7 books that I want to read this Spring Break and am going to dedicate a day to each of them. These books offer much more than a catchy plot, they also offer a great setting. Since Spring Break is about traveling I plan to do a little traveling with the books I read....

Day 1:

Lust

Robin Wasserman

Simon and Schuster

$9.99 U.S.

FTC: I am not receiving anything for promoting this book.

Why:

Lust takes place in a small town, Grace, California. Small towns are always fun to visit during spring break. Along with reading Lust I pln on visiting the tiny, yet rcently popular, town of Forks, Washington. The whole point of this book is in the title... Lust. What is better than relaxing and reading about other people's problems!
