I recently purchased a Kindle Paperwhite. It's much better than reading from an iPad but I can't bring myself to accept reading off of it!

Living in Saudi, makes it really hard to get half of the books I want, so buying them off of a Kindle sounds like it would make life much easier.

The Kindle Paperwhite makes the page look like a book's page, so that's an advantage.

You can also adjust the lighting, which means you don't need a night-light anymore!

One of the reasons why I dislike the Kindle, is that I lose excitement over a book, the bending of the cover as you go through the pages, it just doesn't compare to e-books! Still prefer good ol' paperback/hard cover books!



What about you? What do you prefer? And if you do like the Kindle over normal books, please tell me why! I still can't get it through my brain! 


"The Perks of Being A Wallflower" by Stephen Chbosky.



I read this book a while back before the movie came out. I fell in love with the idea of "the wallflower".

The narrator of the book was Charlie, a kid that had just started high school and had zero friends, some of his friends just didn't speak to him anymore, and some, like Michael, shot themselves.

The book revolved around Charlie's life and the new experiences he went through with new friends.
Also, the book showed how a lot of people feel just like Charlie, people feel like they're invisible and that nobody ever notices.

Charlie noticed, Charlie saw but Charlie didn't speak. He merely observed, hence: "the wallflower"


On a side-note: I LOVED the movie! It seems like the whole hating a movie 'cause it's from a book is now a trend. There are bad movies, and there are really good ones! I loved this movie, it didn't accede my expectations but it didn't disappoint me either. 


All and all, great book and I highly recommend it! x


  I've started reading this book called "The Realm of Possibility" By David Levithan. 




The book's description on Goodreads

"One school. Twenty voices.

Endless possibilities.

There's the girl who is in love with Holden Caulfield. The boy who wants to be strong who falls for the girl who's convinced she needs to be weak. The girl who writes love songs for a girl she can't have. The two boys teetering on the brink of their first anniversary. And everyone in between."


This book is about 20 characters, all of which are in the same high school. It's your typical everyday plot, but with a weird twist to it. Instead of the normal layout a book would have, each character tells a poem or well organised thoughts.


I personally loved how it spoke about every problem a high school could have all at once.

I originally picked up this book because of the title. I didn't know what it was about, but I thought it would be interesting. I almost put it down when the book started out with two boys in a relationship. I wasn't interested in reading such a book for many reasons, one of them being that I thought the book would be too similar to his previous book "Boy meets Boy".

It might seem weird when you first start reading the book, it may look like a collection of poetry instead of a novel because of it's unusual layout, but that's what's so awesome about it to me. 


"Here's what I know about the realm of possibility-- it is alwys expanding, it is never what you think it is.Everything around us was once deemed impossible... And yet, every day we each do so many things that were once impossible to us."
