Beauty and the Armageddon

I am a reader, I feel like I always have been. I am constantly surrounded by books in both my personal and professional worlds. I have read excessively since the second grade. I have attempted, again and again, to keep a list of the books I've read and how I felt about them but so far have been unsuccessful. This is an attempt to keep track of the books I'm reading, and my thoughts about them. My goal is to publish at least one review a week (no promises though). Wish me luck!

Boarding School Books

I had an odd realization the other day. I have read a number of books set in boarding schools. I try to pay attention to trends in books. I am so over vampires. I’m not sick of dystopias, yet… but I’m kinda surprised by the number of books set in boarding schools. Maybe it’s because I live in the states where they aren’t as common? Anyways, here’s the list of books I have read that take place in a boarding school Feel free to comment with your own list!

A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray

Anna and the FrenchKiss by Stephanie Perkins
