Hey guys! I am so excited for today, because I will finally be going to see Fantastic Beasts and where to find them! I don't know if you guys have heard but it is going to be a FIVE movie long series. You can never have too much of the HP universe! I was thinking of whether or not I wanted to do a review of it on here or if I should start doing reviews of book to Movie/TV show adaptations, you guys should let me know what you want to see! I am so excited to see this! If you have seen it, shoot me an email at bookloversliftingandcrushing@gmail.com to tell me how you liked it because I have heard some mixed reviews. In general, I have heard that everyone loves Newt and that the beasts are adorable but the plot lacks something. So you guys should definitely let me know! Thanks, Delaney M.

Hey guys! So today I was at the bookstore just browsing around looking at all of the books when it dawned on me. I have a shit-load of books that I need to read! I realize that I have books at home that I must read first, but still, I go out and buy more. I have a serious problem... Seriously, my room is filled wall to wall with books. I just recently re-did my bookshelves (Ill post a picture of it later) and I actually had to just stack some books on the top part of it to make it work.  But so I thought that it might be interesting to show you guys what my TBR list is right now. I know that some of you guys will hate me for not reading some of these yet and trust me, I probably hate myself for not reading them as well.  My TBR List 1. A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas Image found here:  http://images.gr-assets.com/books/1452783825l/17927395.jpg I am so ashamed to say that I have not read this yet. I think about it all the time, but as you guys may kn

Hey guys! So every single year I say that I am going to do this, but I am determined to do a YA book award show this year!

Categories!) So I'll have the categories and then I will make a form or a poll that is privated to me and all of you guys can vote on what you think are the best in those categories. So right, without further a do, here are the categories... Best Overall Book Most Badass Female Protagonist Most Badass Male Protagonist Best Supporting Character Best Fantasy Book Best Sci-Fi Book Best Fairy-Tale Retelling Best Contemporary Book Best Historical Fiction Book Book that made you cry the most Book that made you want to throw it across the room in a fit of rage Best Book Boyfriend Book that made you go into the biggest reading slump Best Debut Author Best Series that Ended Best Stand-Alone Book I may take out or add some categories in the time being
