5 Books To Keep You On The Edge Of Your Seat During Winter Break
Food Tank

Now that you are home from school, finally done with finals, it's time to relax and recuperate on break.

While home, you're going to need something to do with all of your free time. There's nothing better than sitting down with a book and cuddling up next to the fire.

It's one of my favorite winter break activities. Most people who know me know that I have a passion for reading. I love books that grab you and draw you in all the way to the end.

So, if you're looking for a page-turner and something to keep you entertained and up all night, dive into a book below. The following are five books that you should consider:

1. It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover

Oh, my goodness! OK, so another goodie by Colleen Hoover. My recent fav, the book will have you debating and feeling torn all the way until the last page. Do you love Ryle? Or do you love Atlas? What's a girl to do? The book covers some intense topics, but it really shows how sometimes people fall in love with those who hurt them. The book was really eye-opening.

2. The Couple Next Door by Shari Lapena

I actually just sat in my bed and yelled out loud as I read Lapena's book. I was physically shook. Do yourself a favor and order it right now, It was so twisted and full of turns, and I had no idea what I was in store for. It was honestly shocking and just when you have it figured out, you're smacked right in the face with another twist. Amazing and such a page-turner!

3. The Boy Who Sneaks In My Bedroom Window by Kirsty Moseley

If you're in the market for the sweet, typical love story, then Moseley's book is it. The book is one of my favorites. It's a love story, but it also gets way more intense and deep. It's a great read. While the book does have an undertone of darkness, it's a love story that you will adore. It has the lust, the love and the friendship. It's super cute.

4. Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn

OK, so kind of a throwback. I read it a while ago, but so many people haven't read it. The book is insane. My jaw hit the floor like 20 times while reading it. The book will have you feeling a whole bunch of emotions and it will consume your thoughts. Honestly, it is still one of my favorites.

5. A Stranger In The House by Shari Lapena

Another one of my recent reads, the book also satisfies a craving for a twisty, crazy read. The suspense will have you turning the pages faster and faster. Tom and Karen seem like they have the picture-perfect life, but trust me that they do not. Just you wait.

So go on, order the books and get reading!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
