Puppies, donuts and beaches. Oh My!

Summer weekends can't come quick enough. Wait, I take that back. ANY weekend can't come quick enough. Especially when this is what your weekend is made of.

The proudest, craziest dog. 

Sandwiches in nature are 10000x better.

Fresh donuts, anyone?

My beach read I finished and WOW... Loved.It.

With my favourite lion.

Now I'm off to enjoy the weather some more aka. find a park and read. Today we've got no humidity, so I can finally breathe outside!

Hope your weekend's been fantastic :)

Book Review: A million little pieces.

This isn't really an in-depth book review, I just wanted to leave you with my thoughts.

There's no better feeling than finishing a book that has spoken to you.
This book spoke to me. Inspired me.
Something about creating your own destiny. Having control of your own life.
That you are the one who makes your decisions. You, and only you.

As I've mentioned before, addiction stories freak me out.
It took me a while to warm up to the author's account of battling his addictions.
At first, I had to put the book down for a day because thinking about it made me feel sick.
... I know, I'm a baby and get really sensitive about these things.

Either way, I decided not to quit reading it because it was supposed to be really good.
I'm so glad I didn't.

If you're in the market for an crazy, intense, but really good read, this little book is for you:

A Million Little Pieces

By James Frey

Books, books, books.

When I grow up, I want this in my house:

Now, to get this I need a few things like money, an actual house, a good architect... but most of all, books.

Over the last year I've focused on reading for fun. Before that it was textbooks upon textbooks, and I never wanted to spend more time reading because my eyes hurt from studying. Yes, that is my story and I'm sticking to it. But now I have pretty much all the time in the world to read books that I actually like.

So here I am, asking all of my wonderful readers, do you have any book recommendations? I'm not picky and I like to have an open mind when it comes to reading, so any suggestions are much appreciated. I have list ready to write them all down, I promise!
