August Strindberg (Swedish, 1849-1912),  Storm Landscape , October 1894. Paper-panel, 32 x 23.5 cm book info: on sale: now copy from: bff pages: 397 review written: 1.1.2015 originally published: 1945 title: The Age of Reason author: Jean-Paul Sartre The first novel of Sartre's monumental Roads to Freedom series, The Age of Reason is set in 1938 and tells of Mathieu, a French professor of philosophy who is obsessed with the idea of freedom. As the shadows of the Second World War draw closer -- even as his personal life is complicated by his mistress's pregnancy -- his search for a way to remain free becomes more and more intense. (summary: goodreads ) My thoughts: The Age of Reason by Jean-Paul Sartre is an existential fiction novel published during the existential, post-war movement in France. Existentialism is a philosophy that highlights the importance of individualism and free will. Existentialism is a vast philosophy of which there are many facets. One might hear of an ...

Some bloggers review every book they read. Me? Not so much. I really have to feel like I have something to say about a book, for better or worse. And I have to feel like I can say that in more than three sentences. This year, I've been getting into Gifs. I think Tumblr have something to do with that, but I rather not look too closely at it. Anyways, I've decided that a t the end of every month, I'm going to sum up the books I read but didn't review using a gif. It could be my thoughts on it in one sentence, or it could be something important of the book. So, let's begin! 1. Dark Currents by Lindsay Buroker (4 stars) (To see many more Dark Currents related gifs, see my reading process here ) 2. Whiskey Rebellion by Liliana Hart (4 stars) 3. Romancing the Duke by Tessa Dare (4 stars) Listen to Mama Mc'Call and don't hide your feeling dude! 4. Unclaimed & Unraveled by Courtney Milan (4 stars each) 5. Scandal with a Prince by Nicole Burnham (4 stars) 6....

The Sweet Gum Tree by Katherine Allred Source:  bought Kindle copy Publisher: Ellora's Cave Publication Date:  May 12, 2005 Age Genre: adult (not graphic) Sweet tea, corn bread, and soup beans—everyday fare for eight-year-old Alix French, the precocious darling of a respected southern family. But nothing was ordinary about the day she met ten-year-old Nick Anderson, a boy from the wrong side of town. Armed with only a tin of bee balm and steely determination, Alix treats the raw evidence of a recent beating that mars his back, an act that changes both of their lives forever. Through childhood disasters and teenage woes they cling together as friendship turns to love. The future looks rosy until the fateful night when Frank Anderson, Nick's abusive father, is shot to death in his filthy trailer. Suddenly, Nick is gone—leaving Alix alone, confused and pregnant. For the next fifteen years she wrestles with the pain of Nick's abandonment, a bad marriage, her family and friend...

Happy New Year! I hope each and every one of you has a prosperous, successful and happy happy new year    I've not forgotten about this website at all. On the contrary, I've been dying to write reviews. It's my senior year of high school, I'm taking all my courses at a nearby university, I'm applying to colleges and writing the required essays and filling out the required paperwork and all in all, there's just been very little time to read.    Good news! My resolution includes reading more books. My goal is one review a month, AT LEAST, and 12 books this year which is such a low standard but something I can easily fulfil. I'm sorry I've been so absent this past year but I feel like 2015 is going to be my year, and hopefully yours too. I've got reviews lined up and a few surprises to start the year off great. Thank you so much for sticking with me all these years and for not giving up on me. I've only lost a couple of followers which is a lot less...

Who Wore it Better is an original meme I brought with me from Drugs Called Books. In it, instead of discussing fashion or cloths, we discuss book covers from different countries, and who has the best cover. The meme is co-hosted with the lovely Amanda from  The Book Badger  and will be featured on her blog every other week, so check her out as well!   It's been a REALLY long time since we last did a Who Wore It Better Post! First I had boot camp, then settled into my life as a soldier... Well, we're back, and that's what's important! :) We're starting this time's WWIB with one of the most well love series on earth right now - the Mortal Instruments! God only knows how we haven't considered it before now... (I weeded out the extremely ugly ones...) English One  – I really love this cover, always have. I love the colors, the composition, the guy and the city. I love the intricate patterns on the torso, only half visible. I think it's smart they went with...

 Hi guys! Get ready for a tagtastic post with not one, but two tags! I was tagged to both a long time ago, and I do have valid excuses for their lateness, but I figured enough talk and more tagging, so let's begin! No one tagged should feel obligated to do the tag if you don't want to!  First, I was tagged by  Amanda @ The Book Badger  to do the Book Shelf Tag Book Shelf Tag 1. Is there a book that you really want to read but haven't because you know it'll make you cry? Hmm... not really. There are books I really want to read but don't because I'm effing scared of them, but none because they'll make me cry. I tend to shy away from ugly-cry-books, so I end up getting into those without even knowing it. Plus, I don't mind crying in books - as long as there's a HEA at the end! (and, okay, even if there isn't. But I get mighty depressed afterwards...) 2. Pick one book that helped introduce you to a new genre Well, to be honest I'm kind of a creat...
