So I thought I'd just tell you...

...about some of the cool TV shows I'm currently watching. Mainly as procrastination. I should be doing maths revision, but that's too lame.

Review: Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater

Blue lives with a load of psychics, and she's known her whole life that if she kisses her true love, he'll die.
But that never seemed quite so close to happening until her half-aunt Neeve turns up at her door, announcing that this is the year. Now Blue is running with boys from the local posh school, despite her family's warnings. Because one of them is either her true love, or the man she will kill.
And he's not her boyfriend.

NaNoWriMo

Yup, there's not long to go now! It's nearly November (it's also nearly my maths exam, but, you know, never mind), and this year, I am writing about a crazy vampire multi-dimensional space-changer. That's a time traveller to everyone apart from her boyfriend. It's part of the Holistic Collection, and it's part 2 of my last NaNoWriMo, so you might recognise the characters. NaNoWriMo YWP's word count calculator thinks I can do  about 60000 words, which is mucho scary, so I've put my goal at 45000 words. That's something crazy like 1333 words a day. Eek. Scared. Very scared.
Just thought I'd let you into my terrified little word of petrifiedness.

Scaredy-cat out!

Review: Fracture by Megan Miranda

Okay, I now have a thing for psychological-paranormal-YA-stuff. Look:
 Delaney died. For 11 mins, she was under freezing cold water. Then her best friend and neighbour, Decker, pulls her out. But instead of being grateful to him and to the Universe that she's miraculously alive, she's too busy being drawn to the dying and trying to figure out the mysterious Troy. Her world is falling apart, and Troy seems to be the only one who understands... but is he?
