Jurassic World


So as I write this, I'm currently watching Jurassic Park and they keep showing all these previews for Jurassic World, and I just wanted to write a small post about it. About how EXCITED I am for this movie. Unfortunately I won't be able to see it opening weekend, but I plan to see it the next weekend.

I own both Jurasic Park, and The Lost World Novels (both haven't been read yet, but soon.) I just love how the trailers look for this new installment, and I believe that Chris Pratt will be amazing. As of right now, the first movie is most definitely my favorite, but I did enjoy the others. Oh, and how AWESOME are these posters?

Are you excited for Jurassic World? Which installment is your favorite?

Bout of Books

Monday- 5/11/2015

Challenge- Bookish Survey!

The Questions: 

1. How do you organize your shelves?
I like to keep series and authors together! I do have 1 shelf that contains all my favorite books, but other than that it's basically just wherever I fell like putting them.
2. What is one of your favorite book that’s not in one of your favorite genres?
I think I'm going to have to go with the Saga graphic novels. I recently read them, and I rarely read graphic novels. They're not really my thing, but I fell in love with these ones!
3. What is the last 5 star book you read?
That would have to be the graphic novel Saga, Vol. 3!
4. What book are you most excited to read during the read-a-thon?
I'm really looking forward to finishing The Princess Bride by William Goldman. I'm really enjoying it.
5. What book do you recommend the most?
As of recently, it has been The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien
