What's up Wednesday

Hello readers,

What I'm Reading

I just read Burn for Burn (Burn for Burn, #1)Burn for Burn by Jenny Han

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


It was a fun read. An intense read. It reminded me a bit of Pretty Little Liars. I never read a book like this: where the popular girl is part of the main character role. Where revenge is the main plot. This story is told in three point of views. I can't wait to read the rest of the series!

I'm in the midst of reading DREAMLAND by Sarah Dessen and THE PROPHET by Khalil Gibran.

What I'm Writing

Still no major writing.

What Else I've Been Up To

Our mosque had their annual friendship feast. I got to hand out my poetry book promo cards and even signed one!

Love and thank you,
Fida

#LoveAThon Mini Challenge 4

Hello Poetteers, This challenge is all about mash-ups. We have to put together our bookish life with a non-bookish passion. It's easy once you know your passion. I love reading and writing stories and poetry. I love music, food and travel. I want to travel everywhere. Backpack in Europe. Explore Asia. Help Arabia. Try all the different foods. Probably with the characters of PAPER TOWNS. They have a good plan in place. You got to listen to music when you're driving or on a plane. UNWRITTEN is a bookish song. Or anything Natasha Bedingfield. Or anything bought for my phone. I just like background noise when I read or write. Yet I like to hang out with the songs I first heard of when introduced to music, instead of the newer ones. Maybe in our travels and meals we bump into my favorite artists and get to do some cool stuff like write, sing or just explore with them. At the end and even during the adventures I'd keep a journal of poetry and what we did. There I got everything I...
