Ok I was going to post my jam of the week here, but I heard this new celebrity Earth Day song and I had to share because it’s so funny and so real. The one thing I stand for is the Earth, this planet that we all live on. Seriously, there’s no where for us…

I received a copy of this book to promote on Instagram, but I was interested in the book before the promotion and so I read it right away. This book didn’t disappointment me and made me think about more things than just a young girl who loses her mother. ::TRIGGER WARNING:: This story deals with…

Hey everyone! I wanted to pop on here and give you an update on my reading life for the next few weeks. Of course I’ll be doing my mid-month checkins, but I’m reading as much as I can for my first Summer Reading List. Yes, it’ll be my first time creating a summer reading list…
