5 Books To Add To Your TBR

If you're an avid reader, then you have a TBR. Your "To Be Read" book list is probably miles long, and is constantly growing with each trip to the bookstore. Below I've compiled a list of new/upcoming books that have made their way onto my TBR.

1. Sawkill Girls by Claire Legrand

This book is about three girls on Sawkill island, where girls have gone missing for ages. It seems like it's going to be about their relationships and fighting a terrifying evil, and I'm all about it. Even if I'm not usually into horror, this book has caught my eye.

2. On the Come Up by Angie Thomas

If you've read "The Hate U Give" by Angie Thomas, you know you'll have to pick up "On the Come Up." This book follows Bri, an aspiring rap artist. At first her rapping is a passion, but it quickly becomes a necessity when her family's financial situation is compromised!

3. The Disasters by M.K. England

This book is described as "The Breakfast Club" meets "Guardians of the Galaxy" and I couldn't be more excited for it. It follows troublemaker Nax Hall as he gets kicked out of an elite pilot school in twenty-four hours, but is forced to cooperate with other troublemakers when they survive a terrorist attack on their way back to Earth. They become the last people to be able to spread the truth about what happened.

4. Ayiti by Roxanne Gay

As the first collection of Roxanne Gay's short stories, I'm hyped to see what she creates within the pages. A lot of the stories are focused on women and change in their lives. While I don't know much about the book itself, I'm almost always ready to pick up Roxanne Gay's work.

5. Warcross by Marie Lu

I'm a little late on this one, but I've been excited about virtual reality books for a long time. It's been a while since I've read one as good as "Epic" by Conor Kostick, and I'm hoping that "Warcross" will fill that desire of mine!

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.
