Rebecca's Top Fav Books!

Yes, it's finally here!

Rebecca's Top Fav Books!
This one of a kind chance will bring you through my "world of books" These books aren't messed up, nerdy books, they are the good kind!!


Book One:
The Mother-Daughter Book Club
Fine. It's a series. Not a book. Right now there are four of them. You're probably thinking, "Ew! A mother-daughter book club! Lame!" That's what the characters thought too. It's about 4 very different girls that live in Massachusetts. Their mothers start a book club and force them to be in it. Megan, Jess, Emma, and Cassidy are all against this, but eventually become best of friends. The first book stays in Massachusetts most of the time, but they end up traveling across the country, and go to England! (it's not weird and cheesy, trust me.) I love how real the books feel. As in, it feels like the characters are real life girls.
Ages: 9-16
Stars: 5 STARS!!!!!


Book Two:
The Penderwicks
This sweet little book was another one of my favorites. It's exactly what the sub-title states, "A summer tale of four sisters, two rabbits, and a very interesting boy" To tell ya the truth, I have read this book at least 5 times. (Embarrassing!) It's about four sisters and their dad who rent a small cottage in the mountains for summer vacation. This cozy cottage is right next to a HUGE mansion, which is owned by Mrs. Tifton, a snooty and rich lady. And her son Jeffery. They run into LOTS of trouble, but it's a really sweet tale that reminds you of those old fashioned stories everyone loves.
Ages: 8-14 (well, great for any age)
Stars: 5 STARS!!!!!

Book Three:
The Winnie Years
Oh boy. It's another series. The Winnie Years are better known as Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen and Thirteen Plus One. It's a really great series, the kind you can read again and again! It's about girl named Winnie that grows up through the years and experiences lots of different changes, such as, losing a best friend, getting new friend, middle school, getting her period, getting a boyfriend, traveling, and lots more that any girl can easily relate to. It's a great read for tweens and teens.
Ages: 10-16
Stars; 5 STARS!!!!!

I promise I will post more fav book reviews ASAP!
Hope you liked this!

That Reading Advice Rebecca Gave Us! ONE

Oh, the joy of books.
Well some of you guys are going to say "I HATE READING!" Well that sucks for you. Okay, reading isn't always the "in" thing and people sometimes think of it as school work, but it really isn't. I try to always have a book to read all the time. Whenever the little voice in my head says, "You're such a nerd for reading!" I always say, "Shutup, reading ain't all the bad." (Okay, I don't say "ain't" because that is pretty much illegal in my family, but you get the point)

I picture reading as a movie in your head. (I love movies) If you think about it, reading is like a movie in your head, except you are on of the directors! (Unless you read picture books, it's true. You get to imagine what the characters look like, what the setting looks like, etc.)

COMING SOON TO A BLOG NEAR YOU: Rebecca's Top Fav Books
Yes, you heard me! My opinion on the best books! I will tell you about them, and maybe you will read them! Keep your eye out because this is something you do not want to miss!


WARNING: I am NOT a nerd because I read books. So please, kindly shut up. :)

That Fashion Advice Rebecca Gave Us! ONE

It's almost that time of the year... Spring! Spring is also when people start going crazy over fashion... since the obviously don't have to worry about staying toasty warm. Plus, summer coming up, which means swimsuit and beach season!

How do put together cute outfits? Easy!

I can show you not expensive outfits I threw together out of old stuff that was laying in my dresser and closet. Follow my tips for pretty much free and fun outfits!

The Top:
Do you have a really cute spaghetti strap tank top that completely violates the school dress code or needs a new up-to-date look?

Look at this adorable top... I can't believe I can't wear it due to the dress code!
Yes you can!

Just add a completely safe, yet boring alone, tank top!
Just wear that tank top UNDERNEATH your cami one!
VIOLA! PERFECT!

The Bottom:
Who said khaki was out of style? Well, sometimes it is, but you can pull it off with a cute top like the one above!

Yes, some people are going to say it's out of style... but you can make it in style. It's only out of style when you wear it with a polo...
BUT NOW IT'S PERFECT!

Shoes:
Shoes... well there is an obvious solution to this... FLIP FLOPS! Try plain or colorful flip flops, anything will work!

Perfectly cute flip flops with an adorable flower add on, but any "flop" will work! As long as they aren't broken!

WAIT! MY SCHOOL SAYS I CAN'T WEAR FLIP FLOPS TO SCHOOL!
Then you should wear sandals! Or converse! PERFECT!
Yes, perfect! Converse go with pretty much any outfit, and come in tons of colors!
Strappy sandals work too!

Accessories:
Need that perfect necklace or accessory to wear? Why not jewelry? Or sunglasses? Or scarfs? Anything works!

A bracelet! Or necklace!

A headband!

Sunglasses!

YAY! YOU HAVE YOUR PERFECT OUTFIT! HOME-MADE AND CUTE!

WARNING: Sorry if these clothes are not your taste or style. I will post more!

So, have fun during the spring and show off your style!

I will be posting more of this stuff!

I HAVEN'T POSTED IN A YEAR

The title isn't that true... well i haven't posted since 2010 and it's 2011 now, right? 

Guess what? It's 2011. I had the best time ever in PA. Nothing you guys need to know about :) I GOT THE CHICKEN POX!! I'm recovering from it right now... I missed a week of school because of it.

What's the topic of the day?

Well...
It's...
JUSTIN BEIBER!
Some of you are probably starting to shut down your computers because of the fact that I'm talking about him. Don't. This isn't about how great he is and how everyone loves him. We will talk about all those wonderful, sweet, angels,, out there that hate him. (Major sarcasm)
I wonder why they all hate him... what did he do to them? That's wonder I wonder a lot. Okay, for example, go on Facebook and go to the page "I hate Justin Bieber Club" Look at all the comments. Most people commenting are A-D-U-L-T-S! (yes adults) And they are sitting there cussing about the sixteen year old guy. You don't like him, who cares! Just forget about it! BUt no they all cuss and say they need to kill him. Just because they don't like this music.
I've gotten into a fight with some of the "haters" It was funny. As in, I was about to pee in my pants. (No I didn't actually do it) 

I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU:
Do you like Justin Bieber?

Answer and if ~SOMEONE~ actually answers, I will post their comment in one of my next posts.

THANKS EVERYONE!
