In the first 2 weeks of school starting I have begun to read a new book genre for my reading challenge of 2018. It's called reverse harem. For those manga fans out there you have an idea of what that is. It is usually when there is 1 female loved by and or surrounded by multiple men. Harem is when it's 1 man and multiple women.
While I have read about this in comics it's interesting to see how American authors take a spin on it. I was very worried it would not turn out good because I just thought it would come out messed up. My only with reading books like this is usually 2 men and 1 female, but after already reading 2 of one series and finishing the first of another I think they are really good. I have already recommended them to a friend and she loved them and wish that 6 dudes ask her to marry all at once too (spoiler)!
What's great about these books are that no one feels guilty about this. The men all agree that they love the woman and that her love is not enough for one but for all of them involved. In one book the explains that it is common for a woman to have more than one husband while men were not until recently, but it is still frowned upon. Even royalty can have more than one as well. What's great about this is makes women seem empowered and strong. It's different because when you hear about multiple spouse it men with more than one wife on TLC shows.
The series I recommend are called Saved by Pirates by G. Bailey and Rock-Hard Beautiful by C. M. Stunich. The story I explained about is called Spirit book 1 of the Academy of Spirits and Shadows also by C. M. Stunich. I think these books are a good start into a whole new world of reading and what love can be for some people in and maybe in real life.

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.
