7 Books I Hope To Read This Summer
istock.snapo

There’s only a month left until summer. Well, for me anyway. My goal for the summer has always been to catch up on some reading. I know it’s impossible to read all of the books on my list, since I own at least more than a hundred, but I've found a way to narrow down my list of books to read this summer. So, here are the books that I hope to read this summer.

1. "Caraval" by Stephanie Garber

Since I heard that it’s like “The Hunger Games” and “The Night Circus,” I honestly can't wait to read it. I also heard it’s a really good book.

2. "Firstlife" by Gena Showalter

I want to read this book because I got it as a gift and haven't had time to read it yet!

3. "Everland" by Wendy Spinale

Since it’s a fairy tale retelling of “Peter Pan,” I can't wait to sit down and read this book.

4. "Carve the Mark" by Veronica Roth

It’s the first new book that Veronica Roth has written since the Divergent trilogy. And when I found out that there are Divergent Easter eggs in the book, it makes me want to read it more.

5. "Cinder (The Lunar Chronicles #1)" by Marissa Meyer

I might be in the mood to read a science fiction book this summer, but it also has a hint of fairy-tale sparkle in it, as well.

6. "Passenger" by Alexandra Bracken

Since I didn’t read it during my spring break, I would love to read it this summer. I've also always wanted to read a book about time travel since I’m a Doctor Who fan.

7. "By Your Side" by Kasie West

Some people would place this book in the contemporary-fiction category, but I don’t think contemporary is a genre. I consider this book a romance. Anyway, this book is about a girl who gets locked up in a library for the weekend with a guy. I mean, who doesn’t want to be locked up in a library. I know I do.

I could think of more books to read, but summer seems fleeting and there is so little time for so many books.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
