Top 10 Tuesday: Ten Books To Read In One Day

Hello Lovelies!

Top 10 Tuesdayis a weekly link-up hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.

This Week's Theme: Top Ten Tuesday REWIND

I chose to go with 10 Books to Read in One Day from April 3,2012.

Falling Free by Tina Wainscott

I actually just finished this book, it took me WAY to long to finish, just because I could only read in 15 minute periods. I should have a review up either tomorrow or next Wednesday!

Snowed In With Her Ex by Andrea Laurence

I remember really loving this series, book two was my favorite in this series, so you should check that one out too.

The Boy I Love by Nina de Gramont

I haven't mentioned this one in a while, but I really enjoyed reading this YA novel. It was the first YA book I had read in years and I ended up reading it in one night! Plus I still think it's pretty awesome that because of Top Ten Tuesday, Nina saw where I mentioned her and she sent me the book!

Snowstorm Confessions by Rachel Lee

Let's be honest, pretty much anything by Harlequin can be read in one day. But I find myself thinking and going back to this book pretty often, I really love Rachel Lee as a writer. She is just one of those people who can write an amazing romantic suspense and not make me want to burst into tears out of  frustration and throw my phone at the wall while reading it!

To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee

When I had to read this for English in high school I was dreading it, but once I started reading I actually enjoyed it. I really want to find more classics like this that don't bore me to death.

Too Friendly To Date by Nicole Helm

I think this is just such a sweet story, as I mentioned in my review of the book, I'm a huge sucker for a good friends to lovers trope. Also, I just love Nicole Helm, if you aren't following her on twitter you need to be, she's always cracking me up! (@NicoleTHelm )

Okay, so I only made it to six, but I think that's enough to keep y'all busy for a while!

Hello Lovelies!

So far August has been pretty good, today and tomorrow however, are going to be rough! Today I work 2:30-11:30 and I have to be back at work at 8:00 in the morning, so I'm closing and opening, back to back! SO much fun!

Not much has happened this week, I did manage to get two blog posts up, so I'm really happy about that. Now I just have to decide what to do next week!

Here's this week's Links to Love!

Things That Annoy Me: Driving

Hello Lovelies!

As you may know if you're a regular reader I just got my driver's license in March. On top of that, in May I bought a new, used car, I signed my life away for 75 months, three down, 72 more payments to go!

 Being a new driver I know I have a lot to learn, I've already learnt so much in the past few months. But I have also noticed a lot of things that really annoy me when I am driving. So when I was brainstorming for blog post ideas, I though why not share my annoying driving things!

1. People who don't know how to use a blinker. This is my #1 pet peeve, I've started getting used to it, but when I first got my license and was allowed to drive alone it really freaked me out. I was so used to having my mom with me when I had my drivers permit, and she would help keep and eye out for stuff like that, now it's up to me!

2.People that text and drive. I hate getting behind someone who is visibly on their phone. Just last week I was headed home in a 55 and the person in front of me was barely doing 40, they were swerving and then I noticed they had their phone in front of their face. It made me so mad because they kept swerving and slamming on their brakes for no reason. 

3. Parking! I'm not even gonna lie, I suck at parking, I always have to pull in, then back out and straighten up. I prefer parking lots that have arrows and the slanted lines ( not sure what they're called), it makes my life so much easier. Our old store had that kind of parking lot and I loved it, now our new store has the kind where you can enter anyway and I have so much trouble!

4. Having to get gas. This one isn't too bad, I can handle it, but sometimes my car likes to play games with me, and it's usually when I'm getting gas.

5. People who ride your ass, but won't pass! This is right up there with #1, to be honest I'm not sure which is worse. This one is definitely worse at night, especially if the person is being a first-class jack ass and has their high beams on! If for some reason I have to slam on my breaks and you hit me, I hope your insurance skyrockets!

That's all for today, I hope you all enjoyed the post!

XoXo,

Lori

Pins I'm Loving

Hello Lovelies!

So continuing with updating things on the blog, I decided to change the name of an old series.

No more Pinterest Finds.

Welcome to Pins I'm Loving!

Hair
I love looking at new ideas for my hair. Right now I'm looking for ideas to change my hair for the fall. My hair is currently platinum blonde, but I'm growing tired of it. I'm thinking either a darker, warmer blonde, or I'm just gonna go for it and go straight to bright red!

Wavy Soft & Warm Blonde

So pretty!

Purple-Red Hair
I'm seriously considering dying my platinum blonde hair this color. I've been dying to do this for years and I think I'm gonna give it a few more months and then do it!

Tattoos
I am currently obsessed with watercolor tattoos, I need a watercolor tattoo!
