Mini Wrap Up 02 Shelby Masako 2017-03-12 | I started these "Mini Reading Wraps" last year and never continued with them but seeing as these were both short reviews I thought I would throw them in a video together! I really like Norse Mythology and thought that Gaiman did a great job with the characters. That being said I have not much background on the subject so to the degree of accuracy in which he retold the myths- I cannot confidently make a comment of any kind. All I know is he made the characters come alive and made me interested in myths that were told long long ago!As for It Ends With Us- please read it. Please. You will be better for reading it I promise.Thanks for watching :) (And thanks for the best book, Olivia)Find me here:Goodreads: goodreads.com/CleverFoxTwitter: twitter.com/cleverfoxtweetsInstagram: instagram.com/shelbykacirekBlog: http://thecleverfox.net

Writing in Books, Manuscript Mondays, & VLOGS!? Shelby Masako 2017-01-11 | Although I'm sick and lying in bed I've been dying to make a new video. I honestly can't wait any longer so here it goes. This year is going to be full of growth. I feel it. And these are some of the things that have been taking up space in my mind palace lately. I've been writing more (and even got a trial to Scrivener- life saver). And Manuscript Mondays are a way I will be keeping myself updated and on track!I also plan on vlogging more- seeing as I've moved and I live with new people! Haha, yeah even after I said I was moving back home to save money. I tend to change my mind often. It's part of who I am. So I want to document my life with them while I can!I also am going to be reviewing old books that have been sitting on my shelf because I find that I sometimes get sad when I don't have a video or a goodreads review to look at when I pick up an old book. I want that to change! Also, WHY NOT?!That being said I also want to use my library more often. I live VERY close to my city library now so that makes me happy!Anyways I'm going to go back and take a nap now. I miss you all. I hope you all are having a great start to the new year! See you in the comments xo

Okay, a break... hardcover, paperback, or ebook?7. Back to business...You are appointed head librarian at your local library (you are so happy because in this situation it is a high paying, highly-coveted position)- what is ONE new rule you would enact? and why?8. That one was hard so here's an easy one again: what are you currently reading?9. Show us one book cover that you think is absolutely stunning.10.
