The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner


The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner
By: Stephanie Meyer
Hello My name is Chelsy, and I’m a twilight fan. – if you are not, skip over this post!

I not only had to read this, I had to own it. Just because it is part of the Twilight saga. So I bought it for $8.00 from my book club – Doubleday. I received it, and borrowed it out to my sister because I was not really that excited to read it. She loved it. I wouldn’t say I loved it, but I certainly liked it.

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner chronicles the short time Bree was a vampire for Victoria’s army. I didn’t like Bree prior to reading this book, in fact I didn’t care about Bree at all. Bree was smart, she was falling in love, and she was a good person under all the new vampire craziness. If you’re a Twilight fan, this book is a MUST!

Shutter Island


Shutter Island
By: Dennis Lehane


I just finished reading Shutter Island it was borrowed to me by a good friend who said “it was SO good”. As you may know the movie by the same name made after the book is currently in theaters now.


This book takes place in 1954, U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels and his partner Chuck Aule come to the Island to assist in finding a missing Patient. As they attempt to determine how the patient made it out of her locked cell, past several orderlies and past guarded checkpoints they uncover secrets about the island. Armed with a code left by the missing patient Teddy is going to uncover what is really happening on the island… even if it makes him insane.
I am not much for suspenseful books, but this one was done right. Shutter Island is a good read.
I am now reading: Love the one your with By: Emily Giffin
Happy Reading.

Something Blue


I normally blog about what is currently on my mind. So it is all over the place. Two sections I’m going to try to blog about are: I want, and currently reading.

I want is a post about some item I found inspiring. Whether it be something adorable, unique, cheap, or DIY. And of course as the title mentions something I want!

Currently reading: no need to explain this, but I will talk a little about what book I am currently reading and then update when I’m done with it. Kind of review the book, so to say.

I recently finished reading:
Something Blue
By: Emily Giffin

This is the sequel to Something Borrowed (which I have not read, I know reading books out of order is strange). Something blue is a true chick lit book. It is about a New Yorker named Darcy. Darcy is self absorbed, spoiled, and has a charmed life. Darcy finds her best friend is sleeping with her fiancée and her whole life falls apart. At first I hated Darcy, but by the end I loved her! A must read for any romantic.

I am currently reading: Shutter Island by Dennis Lehane I will update once I have finished it.

Happy Reading.
