Revealed || Current Book Update

Onto the next book of the summer, which is titled, Revealed, by P.C Cast and Kristen Cast. This book is part of the House of Night series which has 11 books that were published from 2007 to 2013. Revealed, is the 11th book of the series, and my mom bought it for me signed by the authors! I've spent a few years reading this series, so it means a lot to have a signed copy.

I just did some research to see if there is a 12th book, and there is! It is titled, Released. It has already been published, so it is definitely on my list to read!

I started reading Revealed, right when it came out in 2013, but with college and work, I didn't have time to read it. I wanted to really sit down and enjoy the story, and putting in 10 minutes of reading it each night wasn't making it enjoyable. So, I set it aside and read shorter lighter books until just recently, when some of my time freed up after finals were over and I started working. I figured that since I didn't have any studies over the summer, I'd catch up on my reading list, and now I'm finally going to finish this one!

A quick summary of the story line; A young girl finds out she has been marked to become a vampire. Not only has she been chosen, but has also been given an affinity for all elements. She has to leave home and live at a school with many other's like her, and yet she always seems to end up at the center of all that goes on in the House of Night.

The Distance Between Us || Current Book Update

Hello everyone. I am starting a new series on my blog all about the books I'm reading. Since I'm now on summer break from university I've begun recreational reading. So, here is an update on the current book I'm enjoying.

I am reading a novel titled, The Distance Between Us. The author is Kasie West. According to my Kindle Paperwhite, I am 84% through the book *sad face* I don't want it to end! Quick summary for you guys, it's about a 17 year old girl who falls for a super rich guy who pushes her out of her sheltered life and helps her find out who she is. They help each other find their passions and it's a romance about two people with two totally different lives, who have a connection that brings them together. Ahhhh I am a hopeless romantic. Many people may think that this book it cheesy and "typical" but I love it so far. It's adorable and such a smooth read with really relate-able scenarios.

p.s.
If you'd like to check out this book, I bought it on my Kindle Paperwhite for $1.99!! What a deal ;)

Sincerely Carter || Current Book Update

   Hello! Yes, I have read another book. It's time for an update! This book I read was titled, Sincerely Carter, by Whitney G. It took me a while for me to decide whether or not to post about this book. It was an impulse buy off of Amazon onto my Kindle Paperwhite. It's a modern day love story. Unexpectedly graphic, not violence graphic... love scene graphic, *if you know what I mean*. This caught me way off guard, and I didn't want to stop reading because I wanted to know what happened by the end of the book, honestly! *blushing*
   In short, it's a story about two people, Carter and Arizona, who've been friends since 4th grade, but as they graduate college, they suddenly see each other in a different light...

   It was a great book! Finished it in three days. Now hunting for the next one, comment below your suggestions!!

April || Favorites 2015

Hello friends! I am currently on summer break. Hopefully I'll be posting a lot more on my blog. Ill be posting updates through my tumblr: https://www.tumblr.com/blog/justgeeklyfabulous

Here are my April Favorites, enjoy!

~PINK hot crush Victoria's Secret body butter:

This body butter smells like fresh lavender scented laundry. Its really creamy and thick, but when it's lathered on it is not sticky or heavy.
~Mason Jar:

Yes, I have finally fallen for the mason jar trend, I got this from a grocery store in Waynsville North Carolina for $1.50! It came with a screw on lid and a straw which I don't really use *sad face*
~Avon Nail Experts nail polish set of the gel strength base coat and UV gloss guard top coat:

I've gone through many base and top coat nail polishes, and so far, Avon has had the best quality.
~My big Calendar:

I bought this calendar towards the end of my university semester because I needed to organize all my events and studying sceduel, and it was super helpful! I have a whole studying process, if you'd like to know more, comment below!
~Too Faced Semi Sweet Chocolate Bar Eye shadow Palette:

I adore this palette, I use it every day. When i open it in the morning, I always take a moment to smell the chocolate. Yes chocolate! All the eye shadows in this palette are infused with coco powder. They are very high quality, and putting it on lasts me all day. The palette is perfect for all skin types, specially oily eyes! *like mine*

That's all for my April favorites. My list for my May favorites is already filling up!

Palm Sunday 2015 || OOTD

I had a lovely Palm Sunday this year. I hope you all did too.
This year I wore a neon yellow dress from Old Navy. It has flower stitching all over it, and it is fitted from top to right past the waist. My coat is from Anthropology. I is a bright pink/red color, with some flower patches sown on the back. It is also very long, but not as long as my dress, so I didn't look like I wasn't wearing pants!
I love the shoes I wore. They are like Chelsea boots, but they have an open heel. This makes them wearable in the spring.



Let me know if you'd like to know how I style my hair. I love sharing my techniques that have developed over a lot of practice. tweet me @hanachemaly or find me on Tumblr! (link on left bar)
