Morgan Matson's 'Save The Date' Is The Book To Read Right Now

Morgan Matson's new book "Save The Date" is absolutely one of the best books that I have read this summer and it is definitely one that you should add to your reading list ASAP.

This book follows Charlie as she gets ready for her sister's wedding and tries to have the best weekend with all her siblings together while trying to block out her reality of having to prepare for college in the fall. All while trying to deal with her huge crush on her neighbor/her brother's best friend, the cute new wedding planner assistant and to top it all off she's dealing with the ending of her mother's comic about their family and the fight that pushed one of her brothers away. This book is one that truly can relate to so many different people and it has elements that so many of us have either gone through or are going through right now.

Matson did such an amazing job with the character development and creation throughout this book. You truly get to know them and can actually picture this family and the things that go on in the book, it's like you're part of the family. Matson is able to masterfully combine the life of dealing with all the family and wedding issues while trying to juggle the crazy world of preparing to go to college and trying to decide what to do with those decisions.

I literally could not put this book down when I was reading it. It was definitely a 'one more chapter just one more chapter' book and then next thing I knew it was 12:30 a.m. and I finished it the next morning. In addition to the characters, the storyline is done so beautifully that it is just something that you could really see happening.

This book does an amazing job of making you feel like you're a part of the Grant family and for someone who is an only child, it is a really great insight to see the world of siblings and the relationships that can exist there. Matson truly does an amazing job of portraying the realness of family life and the relationships that do and don't exist between family members.

This truly is a great book to add to your reading list and I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for a new book to read or something new to add to their "to be read" list. Morgan Matson's "Save The Date" will definitely be the book you can't put down until you've finished it. It is a beautiful read and a great portrayal of family. Matson expertly covers the struggle of preparing for college and the craziness of a big family wedding. This book will make you laugh and cry and just want to go spend some time with your family.

From the cover to the Grant family comic strips inside to the story of family and big life moments, "Save The Date" is your new must-read book right now and you will not regret reading this book!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
