April 2016 Reflection

April has been our second month working on the blog! It was a fun month, and we love sharing some of our favorite books with you.



Goals for next month

Our goals, or at least my goals for next month our the following:

  1. Make blogging less of a chore. Blogging is supposed to be a fun experience where you can share your opinion. Recently, blogging hasn't been fun for me (ex. this post). I really love blogging, but it seems like when I have to do it quickly because I have no ready posts, that's when I procrastinate doing it. That is why I really need to stock up posts!
  2. Have a couple of posts stocked up (reasons stated in previous goal)
  3. Have pictures ready! Even if the post isn't ready, it is always good to have pictures to put in the post and promote it on Instagram.

Favorite Posts of April

One of my favorite posts of April is my review on Made You Up. It is my favorite book, so obviously I love it!

Another one of my favorite posts is Julia's post on In the Time of the Butterflies. It seems like a great book that I should totally read!

Posts Posting in May

One of the posts that I am looking forward to in May is Julia's review on The Light Between Oceans, publishing on Monday, May 9th. She read it recently and is absolutely obsessed with it! She can't wait for the movie to come out.
Another post that I am looking forward to is my review on Everything Matters!, publishing on the 6th. It is probably my second favorite book, and it is so original. I love it!

I hope you enjoyed our April Reading Reflection!

This Month's Popular Posts

Quotes: The Nightingale

I realized that, over a year ago, I wrote a post called "Quotes: Audacity" , and that this post did really well (it's actually Reading is Inevitable's most read post!), and yet I never wrote another post of quotes from a book. I liked writing that post, too. I like sharing quotes I like from books. That's why I started doing it on our bookstagram page . So why did I never write another one of these "quote blog posts"? I don't know. But I intend to write at least another one. And that's why I'm here today. Well, there's that, and then there's also the amazing book that is The Nightingale.  If you've read some of my recent blog posts or have poked around a bit, you would know that exactly a month ago I published my book review on The Nightingale , in which I explained my love for it and why you should read it yourself. And while I actually have another post in the works on that book because it definitely deserves more than on...

Quotes: Audacity

As some of you may know by looking at my posts on our social media page (@readingisinevitable on Instagram), I am currently reading Audacity by Melanie Crowder. It is a beautiful book written in free verse, and follows the life of Clara Lemlich, a female Jewish immigrant who came to America in the early 1900s. (For the full summary of the book, click here .) I absolutely love books written in free verse, or any type of poetry, in fact! This book is so lovely that I have decided to dedicate a whole post to some of my favorite quotes or parts! (Note: I am only on page 294, and there are 366 pages, not including the extra content at the end of my local library's copy.)

Julia's Summer TBR List 2016 Reflection

Whether you want to admit or not, summer is coming to a close. Well, at least the summer vacation part, which is what I'm referring to. (School's going to begin only just around now for us, for anyone who was confused because they started earlier.) That means that I really don't have any more time left to cover my summer TBR list. If anyone doesn't remember or didn't see it, towards the beginning of my summer vacation, I had composed a TBR (to-be-read) list of books that I hoped to possibly read over the summer. Now, dd I completely tackle my TBR list? Partially? Barely? Not even at all? Well...

Easy Sticky Note Bookmark

Something I think that us bookworms or really anyone who is reading a book is that sometimes we aren’t really prepared to read a book. Not in the sense that we don’t know some words or the subject/events of the book are not what was expected. What I’m talking about is bookmarks. We never can really seem to find them when needed, or we don’t want to use that special bookmark we made or bought for $20. Whether it’s because you decided to start reading a book you found at a library/bookstore that you didn’t intend to get, or because you lost your bookmark or some other reason, we all face that big imposing question: Should I try to remember the page number, or should I dog-ear the book? If you’re someone who deeply cares for all books - your own and others’ - then the last option isn’t really an option at all. So here is a solution that might come in handy at school. Do you have a regular-sized square sticky note? Have a few seconds? Well, this little trick might save your book’s...
