SASSY Saturday

Hey there my lovelies!

Welcome back to another round of my montly blog meme „SASSY Saturday“!

How does it work? Well, that’s easy! 

All you have to do is to follow those three golden rules:

1. Credit the creator of this tag (The Sassy Library Fox) and link back. (so I can see all your amazing answers!)
2. Answer the 5 questions below!
3. AND enjoy doing the blog meme! 

„SASSY Saturday“ is planned to be a monthly meme but if you want to do it more often feel free to go for it! This meme was created to get to know other bloggers, their new obsessions and to reflect on your own last month! Above all it was created to have fun though!  If you want you can also use the banner I created! This said let’s head to the good part:

S – Series you loved this month

Young Royals: It was a short series and easy to watch despite my busy May schedule. I really liked the idea of a LGBTQ+ main couple in the show but I really didn’t get all the comparisons with „Red, White & Royal Blue“ because quite honestly, the only thing those two have in common is a prince that falls for a boy. *lol* It was still good though and even though it was extremely awkward at times I bingewatched it in no time. XD

A – Author you discovered

Victoria Lee – The Fever King

Okay, not gonna lie, this book was such a huge surprise! I mean the plot already sounded right up my alley when I read it on the blurb but boy, I didn’t expect to get so obsessed with this! It was amazing and for a couple of days all I could think about were Dara and Noam and what would happen next! I just love those two so much and I can’t wait to read book two! ❤ (Though I’m pretty sure I’ll suffer once I find out even more about their background stories. T_T )

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros – Home

I just love this song?! ❤ It’s such a catchy tune and my kid and I always listen to it and sing along. Plus it has something soothing and wholesome about it. XD I’m sure this song got out a long while ago but sometimes I discover new songs and then I’m addicted to them. *lol*

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

How fast time went by! I had my last day at work on the 31st (and yes, I went there until the bitter end and even handed over all my tasks and responsibilities.) I worked more than 10 years at this company and then it was over in the blink of an eye. That was really surprising but I’ve to go my own way now and it’s for the best. 🙂

Judging random fantasy book names by Alexia @ Right Writing Words

This was such a fun blog post and I really enjoyed to read about the plot ideas Alexia came up with. She had quite a lot of fun book titles as well. I mean „Giants Of The Stars“ sounds like an epic fantasy adventure, right? *lol* At least for me it does, Alexia’s plot idea was amazing too! XD

What do you think about „SASSY Saturday“? Would you like to join the fun? Who is an author you discovered last month and what surprised you in May? Which kind of series did you watch and were they good? Did you have more time than me or was your month busy as well?

Readalong Announcement: „The House in the Cerulean Sea“ – #Klunealong

Hey there, my lovelies!

I already announced it on my BookTube channel and on my Instagram and now I’m announcing it on here too because maybe some of you are interested and want to join? I’ll host my first readalong in July 2022! Since I’m probably the only one who still hasn’t read “The House in the Cerulean Sea” I decided to go for a #Klunealong in order to finally read it! I swear so many people have been raving about this one and it feels like it’s about time I pick it up as well. 😉

Also because I haven’t read any of TJ Klune’s books yet, I decided to extend the #Klunealong to August and to let YOU vote which book we’re going to read. There are three to choose from and you can post your choice in the comments down below. The one that gets the most votes will be read in August:

• Under the Whispering Door
• Wolfsong
• The Extraordinaries

For everyone who’s interested I’ll post the schedule for July! Maybe you want to join? You can also always check out my video on BookTube because there’ll be a discord once the readalong starts. I didn’t create one yet because I have no idea how many people will join. XD If it’s only 4 I can always go for a IG group chat or something similar. *lol*

Anyway! Here’s the promised reading & livestream schedule:

1st –  8th of July: Chapter 1 – 5
9th – 16th of July: Chapters 6 – 10
17th – 24th of July: Chapters 11 – 15
25th – 31st of July: Chapters 16 – 19 & Epilogue

Vlive Discussion #1 Sunday, July 17th
@11am PDT/1pm EST/8pm MESZ/3am KST
Chapters: 1 – 10

Vlive Discussion #2 Sunday, July 31st
@11am PDT/1pm EST/8pm MESZ/3am KST
Chapters: 11 – 19 & Epilogue

This all said and out of the way: This is my first readalong ever so I’m already sorry if some things won’t run as smoothly as I hoped they would. XD I’m new to the readalong business and still have to learn a lot. So please be patient with me. =)

So what about you? Do you want to join my #Klunealong and which book do you want to read in August? Did you ever host a readalong or did you participate in one? And if yes, was it fun? Also did you already read „The House in the Cerulean Sea“ and if yes, did you enjoy it?

Talk to me and let me know!

And as always take care and stay healthy and safe!

This meme was created to get to know other bloggers, their new obsessions and to reflect on your own last month! Above all it was created to have fun though!  If you want you can also use the banner I created! This said let’s head to the good part:

S – Series you loved this month

You’re Beautiful: Okay this k-drama is definitely very unknown because I never heard of it until it popped up on my Netflix feed. *lol* But boy was it good!! I was buddy watching this with the Yoongi to my V once again and we both loved it so much. (Honestly it was so funny we laughed tears.) It’s about a girl that has a twin brother named Ko Mi-nam who’s an idol and his manager is desperate and convinces her to pose as her brother because Mi-nam has gone abroad in order to get surgery. So yeah, of course she says yes and suddenly finds herself in the k-pop bands apartment and is forced to pose as her brother for weeks. *lol* I guess you can already imagine all the trouble she gets into while she’s posing as her brother and if you know anything about k-pop idols you know they are all gorgeous and sweet. So yeah, being a girl among them… *flame and hearty eyes emoji* *LOL*

Heartstopper: I won’t say a lot about „Heartstopper“ in here because I basically binge watched the entire series in a week (Yes, as a parent that’s binging for you. *lol*) and wrote an entire blog post about it! Yes, it was me raving about the series non-stop and if you’ve missed the blog post here’s the link: „Heartstopper“ TV series: I legit smiled through my tears! T_T Enjoy! ;-P

A – Author you discovered

L. Philips – Sometime After Midnight

I legit only read 3 books last month and it’s a miracle but I actually haven’t read any of the authors before. *lol* So I’m kinda spoilt for choice but I’ll just pick the book that got the most paws from me and that was „Sometime After Midnight“! It’s about two boys that come from totally different backgrounds and meet one night at a concert, but before anything happens the boy in the converse runs away and Cameron is left with a picture of his shoes. *lol* So yep, it started out as some sort of Cinderella retelling but it turned into so, so, so much more! Honestly I will write a long review about this because it deserves it! ❤

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

Jimin & Ha Sungwoon – With You

I swear as ARMY you never have a quiet minute! *lol* Especially not when our boys prepare for a comeback in June! First Jimin & Ha Sungwoon’s OST came out and only a couple of days later SUGA released his „That That“ with Psy. *lol* Since I’ll probably listen to „That That“ all of May and will feature it in my next SASSY Saturday I decided to go with Jimin’s OST this month. XD It’s really so good and his lovely voice gets a chance to shine. =) It’s very calming and I love to listen to it on the train.

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

Haha! There were so many things that caught me off guard in April. In good and bad ways I may add. *lol* The super bad surprise was that my hubby actually got Covid right before Easter and our Easter holidays were spent in quarantine. >_< My hubby had to stay at home for 10 days and my kid was at home too because she could have infected other kids at the kindergarten and I was the only one that was allowed to go out and do grocery shopping etc. So uff. It was a busy time. XD Plus even more busy because at the beginning of April I decided to go on an educational sabbatical for a year and I had to organize everything at work and in my freetime. But hey, it has to get better now, right? *lol*

BTS (Bangtan Boys): J-Hope @ BooksWithNatasa

I really like this series on Natasa’s blog and even though I’ve been ARMY for years I still find out new things about our boys! I love that she gives all of them a moment to shine and it’s always fun to read her posts! =) If you don’t know her blog yet and are ARMY as well you need to check it out. Also she posts a lot about books as well so as a reader you can’t go wrong either! *lol* 😉 I think what I want to say is: Go to Natasa’s blog! XD

What do you think about „SASSY Saturday“? Would you like to join the fun? Have you watched „Heartstopper“ too and what did you think about it? Who is your fave character from the show? Did you have to go through quarantine as well and how is the current Covid situation in your country? (Over here it’s slowly getting better) And which new author did you discover last month?

S – Series you loved this month

All of Us Are Dead: I don’t know if you already know that about me but I love zombie movies and series. So there was no way I could miss out on that new South Korean series on Netlfix. And boy am I glad I started to watch it because this was great! XD Okay it was very gory and extremely suspenseful too but from a sociological POV this series was also very interesting. I loved how it played with the fact that humans are sometimes worse than mindless zombies. Highly recommended if you love zombie movies/series too! =)

A – Author you discovered

Sorcery of Thorns – Margaret Rogerson

Okay, almost all of the books I read in March were actually books from new authors I discovered so it’s hard to pick just one, but I decided to go with „Sorcery of Thorns“ because it’s been the only 5 star book last month. This was such an amazing read and I loved it to bits and pieces!! Alone the idea of huge libraries that hold dangerous thinking and feeling grimoires which are guarded by wardens?! Amazing! Add the great characters to it and you get one of the best books I read this year. My absolute fave was Silas though! I want more Silas in my life!!! AHHHHH!!!! ❤

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

Clarity – Sam Tsui & Kurt Schneider cover

I know this song cover is super old but I love Sam Tsui, Kurt Schneider and their „gang“! *lol* I swear they make some of the best covers ever and I always rediscover them again and again when I scroll through my i-pod. Also I love the lyrics to this song… ahh my heart. ❤

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

Lots of stuff that has to do with my work, but that’s a story for another day. I’m trying to think of something else that surprised me but quite honestly, this time around I can’t think of a single thing? Maybe it’s because I was so busy in March that I basically lived in my own bubble. >_< I guess if anything surprised me then it was the fact that my allergies were halfway okay this month!? *lol* Apparently my therapy works and it’s not as bad as it used to be?! *knocks on wood*

My Book Buying Experiences and Habits by May @ Forever and Everly

I really enjoyed May’s post about book buying habits because I could relate to it so much! I’m on BookTube and Bookstagram too but I don’t get how so many of the people on there can make bookhauls with more than 30+ books. Like how?! *lol* I’d be broke if I’d buy so many books so about 90% of the books I read are actually borrowed from my library. ❤ Libraries for the win! 😉 Anyway, May’s post was great, so please check it out! =)

What do you think about „SASSY Saturday“? Would you like to join the fun? Which song did you love last month and do you have songs you always return to as well? Was there something that surprised you last month? And which series did you watch? (Do you find zombies fascinating too? *lol*)

Above all it was created to have fun though!  If you want you can also use the banner I created! This said let’s head to the good part:

S – Series you loved this month

Hotel Del Luna: I was so curious about IU’s „resting bitch face“ in this series and of course about IU herself! I mean she’s a legend! Boy, I had no idea what we’d get ourselves into. Because yes, I buddy watched this series with, my Yoongi once again and it was amazing! XD So for everyone of you who has never heard of it before: It’s a series about a hotel for ghosts that were violently torn from their lives. Hotel Del Luna gives them a place to recover before they continue to go into the afterlife. And IU is the cold hearted owner of said hotel. She always needs a human manager to do mange the human affiars though and so it comes that a young man named Chan-sung enters her hotel. And the rest. Well, you’ll have to find out for yourself but I can promise you this series will give you all the feels!!! ❤ I loved it so much! Also IU and Yeo Jin-goo are both gorgeous. XD

A – Author you discovered

Namina Forna – The Gilded Ones

I only read 4 books last months and Namina Forna was the only author I didn’t know yet. The first half of „The Gilded Ones“ was pretty tropey and felt like I already read similar books but I’m glad I continued to read because the rest of the book was great and it developed into its own story. =) I’ll definitely pick up the sequel as well! I’m curious where the story is heading. XD

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

Jung Kook – Stay Alive (produced by SUGA)

I just can’t help it but as long as BTS and their members release amazing music like that I’ll have to rave about it! XD I mean this is a a masterpiece and Jung Kook’s voice is heavenly!!! The fact SUGA produced the song and gave it his own voice as well is the icing on the cake and ahh! I just love what my two boys did here! ❤ I’ve been listening to this song all February long and I’m still not tired of it.

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

That I actually celebrated my 1 year anniversary on BookTube. Like how?! I vaguely remember coming up with the idea after my birthday last year and my sister and brother-in-law encouraged me to go for it, but quite honestly I never would have thought that I’d actually go through with it and that it would be so much fun. *lol* I really hope that I’ll celebrate even more BookTube anniversaries. Also I can’t help but be surprised by the number of subscribers. I mean it’s only been a year and 243 people are actually watching my videos. I’m mind-blown! And very, very grateful for all this support! ❤ T_T

Above all it was created to have fun though!  If you want you can also use the banner I created! This said let’s head to the good part:

S – Series you loved this month

Emily in Paris: I needed to watch something nice that would let me dive into another world for a little while and „Emily in Paris“ was the perfect series to do that! XD I basically binge watched this, because the episodes are all between 25 – 30 minutes and there were only about 10 in every season. This said: I absolutely fell in love with Mindy and Luc. *lol* Those two are amazing and ahh Mindy can sing! ❤ I loved all the covers she sang in this series! Especially „Dynamite“ and „La vie en rose“. So good! =)

A – Author you discovered

Natasha Ngan – „Girls of Paper and Fire“

This was the first book of the series and I really enjoyed it. When I went into this I didn’t know that the demons look like animals so that was quite a surprise, but it somehow still worked for me? XD I dunno. *lol* The f/f relationship was such a slow burn but I found myself enjoying it a lot. I think the romance was very realistic and it was forbidden love so that kinda added even more spice to the story. Very curious about book two.

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

No More Dream – BTS

I already knew this song (of course I did because I’m ARMY ;-P) but I kinda rediscovered it in January and I love it so much! XD One of the most interesting things about the „2 COOL 4 SKOOL“ album is the fact that Jungkook actually started out as rapline! Which only proves that he’s truly the golden maknae of the group. He’s so good at rapping! And knowing this album exists makes me kinda sad that we don’t get to see a lot of rapping JK anymore. *lol* Also TaeTae could have easily been a part of the rapline too. =)

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

That I was all alone at work for two weeks because all of my co-workers were knocked out due to Covid. >_< I never saw that one coming. I somehow always thought that at least two of us would be in the office but no such luck. Now some of them are back again and I’m so glad I’m not alone anymore. Still, I’m super exhausted and you can bet that I won’t do anything this weekend. I feel like I need a holiday. XD

(Jungkook from BTS sleeping while he gets styled. I really wish I’d have a stylist too. *lol*)

„Book to movie adaptations coming in 2022“ by Elli @ AceReader

I really enjoyed this blog post because I didn’t know so many book adaptations will come out this year! I’m especially pumped for „Heartstopper“ because OMG!!! And it’s even going to be on Netflix so YESH!!! ❤ If you want to know which other books will be made into movies or series I highly recommend you to read Elli’s amazing post! 😉 Thank you, Elli!

S – Series you loved this month

Her Private Life: I was still watching „Her Private Life“ because I was horrible at watching TV series before Christmas. Too much stress had me falling asleep on my sofa so *lol* no tv series for me in December. I did manage to watch a couple of christmassy movies though so I suppose there’s that. I guess next month I’ll have watched more series again so stay tuned. 😉

A – Author you discovered

Silvia Moreno-Garcia – Mexican Gothic

I rarely read in the genre of horror but this book was great! I really loved the atmosphere of „Mexican Gothic“ and the cemetery next to the house, the constant fog surrounding it, the mysterious happenings at High Place and it’s very odd and cold residents drew me in like nobody’s business. XD So if you’re looking for something mysterious that isn’t all too creepy and rather rocks the gross vibe I’m sure you’ll enjyo that one too. 😉

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

V – Christmas Tree

How could I not talk about this beautiful song? I love Tae’s voice and the kind of music he makes as a solo artist. ❤ His music is so soothing and it always makes me happy to listen to his voice. Honestly, he never ceases to amaze me and I could listen to his songs for hours. (Scratch that, I actually DO listen to them for hours. *lol*) Anyway! This is the soundtrack to a new k-drama named „Our Beloved Summer“ and it just got on Netflix so you can bet I’ll watch the hell out of this too. *lol* Yoongi are you ready to watch it with me? XD

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

Last month there was something positive and something negative that surprised me and caught me off guard:

1.) My BookTube channel grew immensely and I’m so thankful for all the new people that subscribed to it! Like seriously! You guys have no idea how much it means to me that you’re following my blog and subscribing to my channel. ❤ I think I’ll never stop being amazed by that. =)

2.) 3 of my precious seven boys are having Covid right now! T_T And that information reached ARMY on the 24th and the 25th of December. So it kind of felt like a blow in the middle of the holiday celebrations! I really wish them all the best and that they’ll all be healthy soon! NamYoonJin take care and take your time to get healthy again. ARMY will wait for you guys so you don’t have to worry! We’ll always be with you! Fighting! ❤

S – Series you loved this month

Her Private Life: My Yoongi and I are at it again and are buddy watching another k-drama together. And this one was such a perfect choice for us because it’s about a museum curator that’s secretly a fangirl and adores Si-an the singer of a k-pop band! *lol* She’s the creator of a fanpage named „The Road to Si-an“ and I just love this series so much! It’s funny but also cute and has all those „awww“ moments I crave for atm, plus it surprised me which is always rare. So yep, this is amazing and I can totally recommend it if you’re part of a fandom as well. 😉

A – Author you discovered

Kacen Callender – Felix Ever After

I really enjoyed this book so much and it made me think a lot and I just love it?! Kacen Callender wrote such a good and thought provoking story and I was so here for it! XD I can’t wait to read more of them and I’m sure their other books will be amazing too! Also that gorgeous cover! I’ll never get tired of looking at those beautiful bright colours. ❤

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

Never Not – Lauv

I love this song so much! It’s beautiful with wonderful lyrics and very slow and calm. And I can actually sing it with mostly hitting the right notes. *lol* I think every ARMY knows this one, because JK as well as Tae sang it. I’ve known „Never Not“ for quite a while but for some reason I just rediscovered it. Maybe because I need calming music lately.

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

My reading slump! I had no idea that I even was in one until I realized that I barely read anything these days and that I’m always too tired to pick up a book. T_T I only managed to read 3 books and 2 mangas last month and it’s not funny. It’s not that I don’t want to read or that I’m not in the mood for it, it’s more that I just don’t have the time and when I do I’m so tired from work and my private life that I just can’t read without my eyes falling shut after 3 pages. >_< Send help!! I want to get rid of this slump. XD I need a vacation… badly.

This meme was created to get to know other bloggers, their new obsessions and to reflect on your own last month! Above all it was created to have fun though!  If you want you can also use the banner I created! This said let’s head to the good part:

S – Series you loved this month

Sex Education: So since my October was a disaster (reading wise and life wise) I found myself binge watching „Sex Education“. The episodes were pretty short (45 – 50 minutes) and Otis’s and Jean’s love lives were just too entertaining. *lol* I really enjoyed watching those episodes and quite honestly I think it’s the perfect series for teenagers because it tackles a lot of serious topics and this in a humorous and sensitive manner. It’s sex education, indeed! XD Also I think the characters I loved the most were Eric and Aimee. Aimee is such a sweet girl and I loved her to bits and pieces! ❤

A – Author you discovered

Philip Reeve – Railhead

So this is among the favourite series of my bestie! She’s the Yoongi to my V and of course I had to read it! And let me tell you this: I was not disappointed! Quite the contrary! This was amazing and I loved every second of exploring this strange and intriguing world! „Railhead“ is definitely something different and I loved the sentient locos and the world building as well as the characters. If you want to know more you can always read my full review: here!

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

Jung Kook – Falling

I know another BTS song but seriously can you blame me for loving this masterpiece??!! JK’s voice is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G!!! I didn’t even know he could have such a slightly gritty/gravelly (is this the right word?!) voice! Like OMG!! It feels like I listened to him for the very first time all over again! This hit so hard! Especially the part when he sings that super long „again“. Like AHHHH!!! I actually had tears in my eyes when he hit that note. I love it. I love it! I LOVE IT! Seriously, JK’s voice is not from this world and I’ll forever be in awe of his vocal range! This man is awesome! And my music loving ARMY heart is happy!

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

How little I actually managed to read in October. T_T Life was pretty tough this last month and I had a lot on my plate so this shouldn’t have come as a surprise but when I wrote my monthly Wrap-Up I only started to realize how little I read. *lol* Let’s just hope November will be a better reading month and that I’ll manage to read more books. (And that I will actually be able to write reviews about them as well, because currently I’ve a backlog. >_< )

Y – Your fave blog post of another blogger

How I learn Korean Pt.4 @ It’s IB!!

I’m so bad at blog hopping at the moment and I’m so sorry I don’t give everyone the attention they deserve but UGH October was really not my month and I had a tough time keeping everything running. This said: I DID enjoy Ib’s blog posts about how she’s learning Korean though! They are really, really helpful and I discovered a couple of new ways to learn Korean through them! So if you want to learn Korean too: Ib is your girl! 😉 Thank you, Ib! Your blog posts are great, informative and help a lot!

What do you think about „SASSY Saturday“? Would you like to join the fun? Did you already listen to „Falling“ and did you once again fall head over heels for JK as well? (This man!!! ❤ ) Did you watch „Sex Education“ too and if yes what did you think about the series? Which new author did you discover last month?

„SASSY Saturday“ is planned to be a monthly meme but if you want to do it more often feel free to go for it! This meme was created to get to know other bloggers, their new obsessions and to reflect on your own last month! Above all it was created to have fun though!  If you want you can also use the banner I created! This said let’s head to the good part:

S – Series you loved this month

„Free!“ Which is an anime series about a swimming team! *lol* I bet you never saw that one coming after all the k-dramas. XD But quite honestly I’m still not over „Crash Landing on You“ and I’m waiting for my Yoongi to finish the series so we can buddy watch the next k-drama. I need a buddy for k-dramas, they make me too emotional. Haha! Anyway! „Free“ is a really nice series and I love the found family trope! The only thing the four swimmers in the team have in common is their love for swimming and their female first names, but slowly and steadily they become friends and then family. ❤ It’s really so sweet to watch and I can totally recommend it!

A – Author you discovered

Michelle Hodkin – The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer

Now this was quite an interesting start for a series. I loved how Hodkin played with the typical YA tropes but somehow still managed to go for something really unique. XD Also can we appreciate sweet, kind and sexy Noah Shaw? ❤ That boy is just ahhh! I loved every conversation Mara and Noah had. They kinda have an enemies-to-lovers vibe going on, but not really? Like it’s obvious they are attracted to each other but Mara tries to stay away from him because he’s kinda the bad boy of the school. Add memory loss and a mental health rep into it and you have a really intriguing start for a trilogy. I can’t wait to dive into the next book!

S – Song you couldn’t get enough of

Coldplay X BTS – My Universe

Okay, technically this was only released on September 24th but since I’ve been listening to it every second I got a chance to this definitely qualifies as the song I couldn’t get enough of. Also the official video premiere of the music video was on September 30th and I quite literally watched it on my phone while I was on my way to work! *lol* The things us ARMYs do for our lovely boys! ❤ Also please tell me some of you watched the documentary of „My Universe“ because it was amazing and I love it so much! The mutual respect between Coldplay and BTS was quite a sight to behold and ahhh the way Chris was blown away by their professionalism and their strong brotherly bond was everything!

S – Surprise – Something that totally caught you off guard

Okay, this is getting pretty serious now but yeah one of my family members that is close to my heart has health problems… the really severe kind. And I was on my phone writing with my Yoongi and she was there for me and listened to me basically word vomiting out all of my fears and worries and mostly sadness. So while we wrote she was silent for a couple of minutes and then she wrote that she just looked it up on google because she didn’t want me to feel even worse by having to explain it all to her. And I was already in tears but this kidness and the way she watched out for me only caused me to cry even harder. I have no doubt she’s reading this now so: THANK YOU!!! So, so much for not only being there for me when I needed it, but for also being such an amazing and awesome friend! ❤ I’m so grateful we became friends through BTS and being ARMY and I consider you to be one of my besties! Girl, if I haven’t told you already I’m doing it now: I purple you and I heart you! ❤

Y – Your fave blog post of another blogger

Dear Leonidas Valdez by Pannaga @ State of Craze

I loved to read all the Leo Valdez love because I love this boy so much too! ❤ Pannaga’s letter to him expressed so many of my own feelings for Leo so I absolutely loved it! If you don’t know Pannaga’s blog already go there NOW! XD
