Forgive me if this post shows how truly dorky I really am.  Feel free to browse right on by, I won’t mind a bit!

For those of you still reading first off, you rock!  Second, I need to share with you my current favorite book.  Mary Roach’s Packing for Mars combines my love of space exploration with my love of weird factoids and anecdotes.  This is my first Roach book, and I can’t wait to read the rest of her works.  She is seriously that good.

So, without really giving anything away,  if you are a fan of NASA, space in general, learning about the grooming habits of astronauts, or finding out just how difficult it is to be compared to Ham, the space chimp, I strongly suggest this amazing book.

1.  The Little Book of Lettering by Emily Gregory- As you might know, I am a huge lettering fan girl, so this book, filled with so much inspiration, is absolutely wonderful to read over and over again!

2.  Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling- I recently started re-reading all of the Harry Potter books, and I am currently on the third.  I don’t have much to say other than these books make me feel so nostalgic and happy!

3.  The Cloud Collector’s Handbook by Gavin Pretor-Pinney- I really really love clouds and this book makes it so fun to learn about all the different shapes and types.

4.  The Fault In Our Stars by John Green- Ok, I finished this book in less than a day.  I didn’t realize it was labeled a “teen” novel, but it doesn’t even matter, it’s that good.  Seriously, please read this.

Well, it has been so overcast and cloudy the last week or so that I have been completely unable to take any photographs!  I have an adorable DIY to share too, but oh well, Mother Nature just doesn’t want to cooperate, so what do I do?…Read!  I recently purchased a Kindle (but it won’t come until the 21st…boo!), and I have been knee deep searching for new books to read!

Finally getting into this wonderful biography of one of my favorite people and subsequent places in the whole world.  Though, it does make me wish of going to Disney World again that much harder.
