Top 5 Books to give for Christmas
Healthy crush

Books are the best gifts you can give, they can open up our minds to new fantasy worlds or broaden our horizens. here are five books that'll make easy gifts for those around you that love to read...

1.) Lies my teacher told me By Ames Loewen

Lies is a book for any adult that loves to read about history. Loewen dives deeper into why history textbooks are how they are, and why and how that can affect student's learning. I had to read it for my history class and it was very interesting, and really makes you think about things in life.

2.) The Raven Boys series by Maggie Stiefvater

The four books series is a breath taking series that follows Blue, her physic all female relatives and four boys that she meets and how they each change each others lives forever. There’s also the interesting concept of Ley Lines. It’s beautifully written, one of the best YA novel series out there.

3.) Throne of Glass series by Sara J. Maas

A great book series that breaks out of the box of boring usual YA tropes (and making any it follows truly unique). The Throne of Glass series is one that your book reader will gobble up like potato chips. However it does get a bit explicit in the fifth book so it's definitely not for the younger or faint of heart.

4.) The Harry Potter series by J K Rowling

With the new Fantastic Beasts movies coming out, these books become more and more nostalgic as the days pass by - it's a great time for us to get the next generation addicted to Harry Potter like the rest of us. They'll thank you for it later.

5.) The Warriors Series by Erin Hunter

When I was a bright eyed reader back when we still had A.R. in school, the very first book series that I ever became addicted to was the Warriors series. They're an easy read to get into for beginners and the clan dynamics are actually pretty interesting. With prophecies, adventures and life or death peril and you'd never expect to get so invested into the lives of wild cats...

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.
