October's Instagram


- October is Dyslexia awareness month and throughout the month I posted various different statistics about dyslexia 



- Also at the beginning of this month I reminisced about the last  I went to back to England



- This month I also instagramd a lot of old photos. Toronto is one place that I love Instagraming.  



- One of my favourite things is Rainbows. 



- I also instagrammed about my cat, clouds and an old college photo

October Read and November TBR || 2016

Hey

and welcome to another monthly read and TBR post, it feel like i only just did one of these post,


Animal Farm
George Orwell
I finally actually finished Animal Farm (find out HERE what I thought about it)




The Devil Wears Prada
Lauren Weisburger
I was in a reading slump in September and I started reading The Devil Wears Prada, and finished it in October, it got me out of that reading slump. (Read HERE to see my review) 




David Jason
My Life Autobiography
I have had David Jason's book on my shelf for like 2 years, finally I read it and loved it






November To Be Read
If you read my September Read and October TBR you will know that I started and didnt finish Eclpise, at the end of October I picked it up again and started reading it again (you can find that post HERE), I have got further into the book then I ever have before which I am happy about becasue I want to read the series and finish it. 


If on the odd chance that  I actually finish Eclipse then I want to start reading Breaking Dawn,

Top 5 Wednesday || October 19th 2016 || Favorite Non-Canon Ships

Hey
and welcome to another Top 5 Wednesday, this week is Favourite Non Canon Ships, (canon meaning: what actually happened in the text). Or that did get together, but weren't together in the end of the series, 




Cassia and Xander
Matched
Ally Condie

Ok this is based on reading the first book, and kinda knowing that because there are two more books and the fact that there was an uncertainty around who she would pick in the first place, I wish that she had chosen Xander because they already get along, and the uncernty of her life with Ky. I know she could possibly get to know him on the way she does with Xander, but the fact that she is such good friends with him.








Fleur and Ron
Harry Potter
JK Rowling

OK, so when the fourth book came out I think it was so cute that Ron liked her, and his awkwardness around her was brilliant, and I loved how it was acted out on screens, but while I tottally wanted them to get together I am so much happier that they didnt get together but I wish they had for just a little while.





Kate and Taylor
My Sister's Keeper
Jodi Picoult

This was a hard one to choose because there is a similar kind of situation in The Fault in Our Stars, but for me the difference for me is the fact that Kate and Taylor did a little bit more together, (I liked the Fault in Our Stars). The movie version of My Sister's Keeper changed a few things from the book, the relationship between Kate and Taylor was as good as it was in the book, and I wanted them to be together forever





Bella and Jacob
Twilight Saga
Stephanie Meyer

I am not a fan of the whole Twilight Saga Books (So much so that I have only read the first two books and can't carry on) but I would have liked to have seen the books otherway around, with Bella and Jacob together. After watching the movies I was Team Edward (ya know the whole english thing, blah blah) but now I am team no one, but would have loved to have seen Bella be with Jacob








Clay and Hannah
Thirteen Reasons Why
Jay Asher

Even though one died, and the other is figuring out why, if the one who had died was alive  I would have liked to have seen them together, is that strange, maybe, and even though Clay was one of the reasons listed on the tapes, what he did want as bad as what others had done to Hannah,

September Read and October TBR

Hey
How am I already doing my September read when it feels like I was only just doing my TBR for September, this year is going super quick. 

Well September was a little bit of a let down in reading a full book. Because I start a book and completeing a book just never happened

I finished New Moon which is great. But I started that in Auguast. 

Eclipse (Stephanie Meyer) . Didn't make it past the first chapter. I have always had trouble reading Eclipse. So much so that I have never actually read the whole thing leading me on not to read Breaking Dawn. FAIL
and I know you can see me in the reflection.

Just Listen
Sarah Dessen
I wanted to read Just Listen this month. And do you think I even picked the books up. You'd be right if you said no. FAIL.

Animal Farm. 
(George Orwell)
Got to complicated and I started to not understand it. It's not even a long book the version I have. It's not even 100 pages and I was so close to finishing it. FAIL. side note: this book is so thin I had to get another book behind it to stand it up

Sense and Sensibility.
(Jane Austin)
Got half way thew it near enough and realized I wasn't interested in reading it at the moment and that I was skipping down the page so I gave up. FAIL
You can still see the bookmark in the book

Coldest girl in Coldstown 
Holly Black.  
Started it. Not loving it at the moment. Kept trying to move forward in it. Just can't at the moment. So it is put back on my book shelf. FAIL



The Devil Wears Prada
Lauren Weisburger
. Ok so I have found a winner. Ok it's a book I have already read. A lot of times but if I can try and get over this reading slump I am going to try and do that. I won't finish by the end of the month. I know my own spead. And I know at the beginning of the year I was reading three books a month. 


So for October I want to finish reading The Devil Wears Prada and possibly finish the Coldest Girl in Coldstown.
