My Bookish Life

        Hello guys! How have you been? I hope you all have been good. I know it's been a minute since I posted but I have been kind of busy. That being said I do have two books to talk about so this is going to be a pretty long post. With that being said let's get started!  Title: The Aviator's Wife Author: Melanie Benjamin Genre: I think it's historical fiction. Pages: 416 Rating: 3 stars Synopsis: When Anne Morrow, a shy college senior with hidden literary aspirations, travels to Mexico City to spend Christmas with her family, she meets Colonel Charles Lindbergh, fresh off his celebrated 1927 solo flight across the Atlantic. Enthralled by Charles's assurance and fame, Anne is certain the aviator has scarcely noticed her. But she is wrong. Charles sees in Anne a kindred  spirit, a fellow adventurer, and her world will be changed forever. My thoughts on the book: I think Melanie Benjamin did a really good job.

Title:Saga Author: Brian K. Vaughan Genre : Graphic Novel Pages: 188 Rating: 5 stars Bookie Trial Challenge It Completes: Book Binding for Scribes.

That being said I love the Saga series!       The world the series is set in is very strange and vivid and that's part of why I love the series. I also love the characters! They are so relatable!

       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 boo...
