My Bookish Life: The Bookie Trials

       Hello readers! I have decided I want to participate in The Bookie Trials this weekend.  I have heard a good bit about it but, I just found out it's starting up this weekend. I will leave a link to a YouTube video below where you can find out more about The Bookie Trials.

   I got put on the Scribe team so I have to do their challenges and earn their badges. 

My TBR list for this challenge is as follows: 
1. Bookbinding: Contains a book within a book:
For that I picked Saga by Brian K. Vaughn
 There is a fictional book called A Nighttime Smoke mentioned a good bit in this series so I figure that should count for this challenge. 

2. Read a book with calligraphy on the cover.
I had a hard time finding a book with calligraphy on the cover but, I hope Coraline counts because I think it's pretty close. I love Neil Gaiman he is one of my favorite writers and while I have seen this movie I haven't read the book. 

3. Read an underrated/not talked about a lot book:
I find the wreck of the Titanic to be an interesting subject. This book is short and it covers the not talked about challenge 
without adding a lot to my TBR.

      To find out more about what the Bookie Trials are go to the youtube video below:

  I should finish Paper Towns by John Green sometime tomorrow and I will post a review soon  . That's it for this update . If you like my content please subscribe. If you have read these books leave your thoughts in the comments. I hope you all have a nice afternoon and I will talk to you all again soon.
