Cinderella by Steven Chapman!!! OMG. They play that every year at this Daddy/Daughter ball my dad and I go to. My dad always cries. π I love it!!
Also Best Day of my Life and All about that bass. And Anything can happen!! I’ve heard that song around before, but didn’t know the name of it/who sang it.
Haha, me too!! That’s why I only chose nine. π
I bet you would love Sabrina Carpenter. She is an AMAZING singer.
OH, I DOOO. I have several of her songs on my playlists.
On Christmas, there was a Disney Christmas Day Parade and she was on Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay, where my family had been just the month before on our Disney Cruise! I was freaking out!!! π
WOW. I can’t wait for her debut album Eyes Wide Open. I REALLY need it now.
I love Ungifted!! π (By the way.)
On my lists are a bunch of random things…a goal of mine is to blog more, so that’s up there in things I’ve been doing, and I recently discovered a super awesome song called Rhapsody in Blue! π
You do? I’ve wanted to read it forever! π
I definitely need to blog more. I really procrastinate it sometimes. :-/
Rhapsody in Blue is such a pretty name! What’s the link?
Okay, so if you’re listening to it on YouTube, the link is https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ynEOo28lsbc
I have it on iTunes, which is really useful too! π
You posted! I am on a book high. I got 5 books on Monday and my first ever ARC on Wednesday. So on Monday I got a box set with the first 3 Penderwicks books, Princess academy: the Forgotten Sisters( it just recently came out. I think it was in February. I finished it today. It only needs one word to describe it. AMAZING. Have you read the Princess Academy series?), and the Healers Apprentice by Melanie.
On Wednesday I got Book Scavenger( I told you about the giveaway in a previous post). It doesn’t come out tell june. If you keep an eye out on the website though a book may be hidden near you at some point( the website is bookscavenger.com ). So I have to read the book, hide the book, and post a hint on the website where I hid it.
Did you check out the website I recommended to you? http://www.fromthemixedupfiles.com Its a really good website. They have giveaways every once in a while too.
Are you doing anything fun this weekend? I’m babysitting tonight but that’s about it.
I started and Book Scavenger and so far it is AMAZING. you need to keep an eye out for a copy to come near you. The idea of a book scavenger hunt is so much fun. I wish there was an actaul book scavenger hunt website. It would be so fun. Wouldnt it be fun to search for and hide books? Maybe I should set something up for me and my friends. I don’t know. Wouldn’t it be fun if we could exchange books?
Those all sound like great books!! I have heard of The Princess Academy series. What do you think of it?
OMG, the Book Scavenger sounds like SO much fun! I’ll be checking it every so often to see if one comes near me. That’s awesome!!! It would be amazing if someone set something up like that. Have you ever heard of Geo Caching? It’s just like that, except there are just little trinkets (like bouncy balls) and logs to write your name in. There’s a website and app and everything. It’s pretty cool.
I just looked at From the Mixed-Up Files, and I love it! I subscribed to it. I’m glad you found it! There are a lot of Young Adult/Teen book blogs, but I haven’t found very many dedicated just to Middle Grade. π
I’m not doing much this weekend, I went to the historical home with my cousin today and we gave two tours – one to these 2 people and one to a group of Boy Scouts. There were two other girls there who signed up about a week before me, so they’re new to it, as well. They’re a year younger than my cousin and I. (Probably your age.) They’re so sweet! I really like doing it because I have met a few girls who like history like me, and I get to dress up and pretend I live in the 1850’s for a few hours! π
Hi, any of you follow Heather Vogel Frederick’s blog?
I don’t follow it but I do check it quite frequently. I don’t really liek following blogs.
I check it too, but don’t follow it. I love fan mail Friday’s. She posted one of your drawings right? Good job!
I’m subscribed to her blog. I’ve been following for a while, since I read the MDBC books. (A few years ago.) I love Saturday Story Starter. π
Brooke, your drawing was super good!! I wish I was better as drawing!
It was not that good. The other ones I snent her are better. She has not posted a picture of them up yet. I actually colored those ones.
Hi, did you guys see my drawing too? It’s the newest one π
Maddy, you did the Heather’s Literary Gym drawing? That was so good!! And super creative. I haven’t seen anything like that on Fan Mail Friday before. π
Thank you very much!!! Yes, I did that. I’m glad you liked it! π
