Keep It or Ditch It? | You Pick #2


Keep It or Ditch It? is a meme I do on the blog once a month, where I show some books that have been in my ''TBR Mountain''  for a while, and you guys decide if I should

a) Keep It

or

b) Ditch It

Last time you guys decided I should DITCH The Wrong Girl, so we've already downsized my TBR by one book!!

*cheers*


Now for the books for this month- yes, I'm going to do two this time!!



Project 17 by Laurie Faria Stolarz



[About: High atop Hathorne Hill, near Boston, sits Danvers State Hospital. Built in 1878 and closed in 1992, this abandoned mental institution is rumored to be the birthplace of the lobotomy. On the eve of the hospital’s demolition, six teens break in to spend the night and film a movie about their experiences. For Derik, it’s an opportunity to win a filmmaking contest and save himself from a future of flipping burgers at his parents’ diner. For the others, it’s a chance to be on TV, or a night with no parents. But what starts as a dare quickly escalates into a nightmare. Behind the crumbling walls, down every dark passageway, and in each deserted room, they will unravel the mysteries of those who once lived there and the spirits who still might.]


Don't ask me why I have this book, it seemed interesting at the time and I really thought I was going to read it sooner... but apparently I forgot about it...

Hehe, whoops! 😅





The Poison Apples by Lily Archer


[About: We all know the stories of Cinderella, Snow White, and Rapunzel. But have you ever heard of Alice Bingley-Beckerman, Reena Paruchuri, or Molly Miller? Of course you haven’t. Not yet. What these girls have in common with their fairy tale sisters is this: They are the stepdaughters of three very evil stepmothers. And they’re not happy about it. They think they are alone in their unhappiness until they arrive at Putnam Mount McKinsey, a posh boarding school located in lovely rural Massachusetts. Here is where they will plot their revenge. But first they have to meet.]

 I'm rather unsure if I should keep this one or not- on one hand I really am curious and it's right up my alley, on the other... I already have a huge TBR!




Should I KEEP or DITCH???


Please let me know what you think of the books! Thanks for reading and all your help!

    I have liked the one author's books in the past but for some reason I stopped reading her. I know almost nothing about this book but, I don't know, it wouldn't hurt to try her so I say Keep It!

    Both have interesting qualities but I would keep Poison Apples. I'm a sucker for a retelling. :)

    I'd keep both, fut if I had to choose between them, I'd keep the first book and ditch the second :)

Library Love | 1st Post

Hi guys, so my friend Lindsi @ Do You Dog-ear? did a post that I thought was really cool and I would want to start doing. Basically whenever I go to the library, I share in a blog post what I got and hope to read! I think this is meant to be like once every two or three weeks, but I actually only get to go to my library probably once a month... SO.... yeah haha.

Scythe by Neal Shusterman | Review + Q & A

Hello lovely peoples! I have a book review to share with you, and at the bottom (after the review) will be a little Q & A section. Because my friend Desara also nominated me for the Sunshine Blogger Award, and I feel bad about not answering her questions- because I'd already done the tag when my friend Tessa nominated me. (That was a mouthfull, Lol.) So book review first! *         *         *        *         *   Scythe by Neal Shusterman!! Synopsis: Thou shalt kill. A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery. Humanity has conquered all those things, and has even conquered death. Now scythes are the only ones who can end life—and they are commanded to do so, in order to keep the size of the population under control. Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe—a role that neither wants. These teens must master the “art” of taking life, knowing that the consequ...
