When Parents Have Those Brilliant Ideas

***Since the "Give a Book Some Love" event had zero interest, it's been canceled.***

Let's face facts, kids can sometimes be giant pains in the butt, especially when you have multiple kids. I know my siblings and I were no walk in the park to raise. I have to hand it to my parents for trying to come up with creative disciplinary measures, but some of them really feel flat on their face.

Book Synopsis
At sixteen, Bay-Lee Bishop is not a typical girl. The last thing she wants is to be popular, but flying under the radar is nearly impossible when you’re the tallest kid in the eleventh grade. She works hard to maintain a steady C point average, never raises her hand in class, and avoids extra-curricular activity of any kind. The other students would be shocked to learn she’s living under an alias, relocating at her uncle’s whim, and hiding from monsters who want her dead because she’s Van Helsing’s daughter.
Life is weird. Then everything changes. A reaper uses her closet to cross over from the Spirit Realm right before her father whisks her away to a new school. This is the school she was born for, the school where she will learn to hunt and kill monsters, but it isn’t what she imagined. Students hate her, her mentor refuses to help her, and wraiths are murdering hunters on their birthdays. She is laser-focused on training. Love is not an option for her. Try telling that to her heart.

Heroes and Villains Blogfest


Today is the Heroes and Villains Blog fest hosted by Jackie at Bouquet of Books and Dani at Entertaining Interests. 

Everyone loves a good hero, but there are some of us- like me -who adore a good villain as well... maybe even more in my case. 

Some heroes I love:


The Baudelaire orphans from A Series of Unfortunate Events

I know I have a picture from the movie here, but I am talking about the Baudelaires from the books (although I actually thought the movie did a fair representation).
