They are many things you call a person who really loves books. Such names are a book lover, a book junkie Bibliophile, and my favorite is a Book Nerd. Book nerds are individuals who are obsessed with books. They are also fangirls or fanboys about literary work.

Here are 10 qualifications that make a book nerd:

1. Books are life!

If you spend your day just thinking about books or wondering what you're going to read next, chances are you're a book nerd.

2. Your TBR list is extensive.

Finding books and adding them to your TBR (to be read). Wondering if you'll get to the end of your list.

3. All you do is talk about books.

You will get super excited when you talk about books or anything remotely close to books.

Them: Hey, have you seen (movie title)

You: There's a book for that!

4. You are a part of the online book communities.

These communities are YouTube's booktube and that is where book-nerds can get new books to add on their TBR, or get a spoiler or spoiler-free book reviews. Some other places that I use are Goodreads, Hoopla, and you can even use Google plus to search for book blogs and online forums.

5. You have the "Book vs. Movie Adaptions Debate."

The most talked about on book-tube is the "is the movie better than the book??" conversation. The most common answer is yes, the book is better than the movie.

6. Book nerds will often compete.

By seeing how many books they have read or whether they read said book before the other person did.

7. The Physical book vs. Digital book rivalry.

This is one of the many dilemmas that all book-nerds face. Should you get the real thing or not?

8. You use books as decor.

This is when you finish your book and is a nice way for you to add books to you TBR, as well as an excuse to buy more books to read.

9. This is you in a nutshell.

When your friends want you to come hang out with them.

You at Barnes & Noble or a bookstore.

When you get the feels while reading.

When you get to the satisfying end.

10. You are a book-nerd if...

If you love books!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
