Life

This week and weekend have been busy. I spent all week studying (no surprises there, I’ll be so glad when this exam is over!) and this weekend I traveled out of town for a wedding! My boyfriend’s step-brother got married in a beautiful ceremony and reception and I was so honored to be invited. My boyfriend’s family had traveled from all over the US to be in town for the wedding, so we spent a lot of time with them both before and after the wedding. It was fun but exhausting!

My dress matching the color scheme of the wedding was a complete accident!

Books

illmeetyouthereI finished I’ll Meet You There this week and WOW what an emotional book. Contemporaries aren’t always my favorite and this one was slow for me in the beginning, but I came to be really invested in the characters’ lives, and I thought the portrayal of the military and having a character be so young and be a veteran was extremely well done. Review to come this week!

lolaandtheboynextdoorI decided to treat myself by reading a book I purchased a while ago that’s been taunting me from my shelf (do you ever just hold off on books you really want to read after you buy them because you want to save them for sometime special?) I’m enjoying Lola and the timing is perfect as I’ll be vacationing in San Francisco soon and can’t wait to perhaps take some bookish pictures of the novel in the city it takes place in!

  1. Congratz to your boyfriend’s step-brother! You look gorgeous 🙂

    I keep meaning to read the Lola series because I’ve heard it’s so good but I can never seem to find the time… it’ll happen someday!

    Hope you have an awesome week!
