The Blog's Format

Fellow Bookworms,  This Blog can be a little confusing when you try to navigate without any instructions. Here is a tip for you to navigate through my Blog: To go to different sections of the blog (e.g.: to access ONLY Harry Potter posts), go to the sidebar and click on 'Labels'. In that area, you will see a few different Labels. Click on the desired section (e.g.: click on 'Harry Potter') and you will be directed to the posts on my blog that are SOLELY related to the topic you have clicked on.  Here is a brief introduction to the different Labels (so far) 1. Home: This label is for posts where I address 'Admin' concerns regarding this Blog.  2. Main Feed: This label is for posts on my Book Recommendations and Reviews.  3. Harry Potter: This label is for posts on Harry Potter (the books, not movies!). You can also check out fan theories and memes on a separate page named 'Harry Potter Fandom'. 4. Divergent: This label is for posts on Divergent (the books...

Introduction to New Page on my Blog for Potterheads

Fellow Bookworms,  Harry Potter is not a new book series to us.  In fact, I'm a HUGE Potterhead! Are you?  I'm Hufflepuff. What house are you? I'm very sure I'm not alone when I said I'm a Potterhead. Thus, I am creating a new page on this blog for my fellow Potterheads to unite with me! On this page, we can all discuss Harry Potter Theories and even share memes!  Let us all light our lives during this quarantine with a flick of our wrist and a mutter of 'Lumos'.  I look forward to checking out your fan theories and discussing them with you! Cheers,  Bookworm 137

Here is another one of my favourite books that is suitable for children at the ages of 9-12.  Title: Mayday Author: Karen Harrington Synopsis: Wayne Kovok lives in the world of 'After'. He was coming back from his uncle's funeral when the plane he was on crashed. As a boy who loves nothing more than spouting facts, Wayne sadly lost his voice. How will he stand up to his drill-sergeant grandfather? What will he hope for about his deadbeat dad? Will he get his voice back? Jump in on this adventure and journey with Wayne to see how he struggles through (and eventually succeeds - spoiler alert) his teen years! My Opinions: This book touched me to the core (spoiler alert). I loved it, and I'm sure that if you're 9-12 years old, you'll love it too. As a teenager, Wayne is entering a new part of his life and is trying to figure out how to handle things, and this problem is no easy f...
