Weekly Playlist #2

Here's another playlist from my glorious music library! ☺

1. New Moon Twilight (The Meadow)- Twilight Orchestra
       I know, I know. It's Twilight. But believe me when i'm sitting in a loud room and just want to read in peace this is my go to song. It's completely music, no lyrics whatsoever. Also, it's a soft song so it doesn't distract you while reading just provides soothing background noise.

2. So What- P!nk
    This is a great song to lift your spirits and just dance to!

3. Live To Rise- Soundgarden
    I don't know what it is, but there is just something about this song that I love! Maybe because it played on          the credits of The Avengers...

4. Riff Off- Pitch Perfect
     Love this movie. Love this song. After I saw this movie (twice) I could not get this song out of my head!

5. Edge of Seventeen- Stevie Nicks
     I don't think you could find a more unique voice than Stevie's (sorry Adele!).

Weekly Playlist

Okay, so I have decided that I am going to begin posting five songs out of my music library to share with all of you. I love to listen to music when I read and thought what a perfect thing to post! Thus the Weekly Playlist was born. (There is also a link to the song so you can listen to it☺)

1. Skyfall- Adele 
     I am absolutely in love with this song! Adele's voice is so unique and perfectly performs this song. Enjoy!

2. Locked Out of Heaven- Bruno Mars
     Bruno Mars, what else do you need? His vintage vibe and meaningful lyrics captivated me from the first        time I heard Grenade. Now he's incorporating modern music styles and never ceases to impress.

3. Forever Young- One Direction
     I'm not really into the melody but i fell in love with the lyrics. Life is so short we really need to learn to          appreciate it and be young, have fun, and live life to the fullest.

4. Diamond- Rihanna
     Every time I hear this song I have to sing. I don't know what it is but something about this song just                makes me want to get up and sing. Hope it does the same for you!

5. 50 Ways To Say Goodbye- Train
      This song is hilarious! The lyrics are so random and the music video is great! Watching this video was a         completely hilarious experience. I hope you lol as much as I did!

Wings By: Aprilynne Pike

This book is absolutely amazing! Especially if you are a fan of fiction and fairy tale creatures. Aprilynne Pike has beautifully created a world full of faeries, trolls, magic.

Laurel is just a regular fifteen year old girl. Loves tank tops being outdoors, and playing her mother's old guitar. Until one morning when she wakes up with a bump on her back. Laurel hesitates to tell her parents and instead waits for it to go away. A couple of days later the bump is gone, replaced by a flower? 

High school dances, first loves, and evil trolls? Read this #1 Bestseller and find yourself completely emerged into the faerie world of Avalon and the world Laurel grew up with. Try to differentiate between reality and fiction. I promise, you will not be able to put this book down.






After Wings read Spells, Illusions, and Destined.
