I love books! And what's better than just reading 24/7?! So this summer I have been trying out all kind of new things. I am participating in Camp NANOWRIMO and I'm actually doing it and on track! I mean my goal is only 5,000 words, but that's a lot for me, especially when everything I'm writing is being made up as it goes, instead of doing research and writing a report on something. The word sprints and youtube write-in videos have really helped with that.
So with my ambitiousness of late I found this youtube video and have accepted the challenge:
My Reading Challenges Picks
1. Person on the cover: Finale - Becca Fitzpatrick
2. Hyped: Morning Star - Pierce Brown
3. Read in one sitting: Ten Things Sloane Hates About Tru - Tera Lynn Childs
4. A character very different from you: Light as a Feather, Stiff as a Board - Zoe Aarsen
5. Read a whole book outside: The Book with No Pictures - BJ Novak
6. Bought because of the cover: Psych's Guide to Crime Fighting for the Totally Unqualified - Shawn Spencer
7. Read seven books over the week: Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants - Ann Brashares
Pretty sure I will not get 7 books read because I have work and other life responsibilities. I would just feel so lazy if I stayed in all day reading, but if you can do it more power to ya. My seventh book would have been the booktube-a-thon's pick, Juniper Lemon's Happiness Index, but I couldn't find it at my library and I don't like to buy books unless I know that I like them. Finale and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants are rereads, but I haven't read them in a very long time. Yes, number 5 is a younger book, but it is really hot outside and I've actually wanted to read this book. I wanted to see how he writes a picture book without pictures, plus it's the guy from The Office, so it's gotta be good. I love the show Psych and this is written in the voice of Shawn Spencer, it's gonna be sooo good! I'm so excited, that I think I might start a little early, I mean are there really any set rules that the book has to begin and end in the same week, except for 3 and 5?
Update: I just remembered I'll be going out of town next week, yeah I don't think seven books is going to happen, especially since I'll be the one driving. I'm going to see AFI again! Twice! I'm going to see them Friday and then follow them and see them Saturday!!

June Favorites
I saw the Newsies traveling Broadway show and it was so good! I wasn't real excited about it because the reporter is a girl and I didn't see how that would work, but it did! The dancing was amazing and girls played some of the Newsies and they were so good. The only thing that I have qualms about is that Spot from Brooklyn was played by a girl and I wished it was a guy because I had a crush on him in the original movie.
*When I say some were played by girls, the girls were dressed up like guys except for the reporter.
I tried out a new foundation from elf. It is the oil-free, SPF 15 sunscreen, flawless finish foundation in natural, previously porcelain. It is light weight, has a semi-matte finish, and a refreshing smell from the sunscreen that's in it. It gives good coverage and has a natural feeling and look.

I love this Summer Bucket List and I've already done a few of these things such as, create a summer playlist, go to a baseball game, try a new workout, take a road trip, plan a trip, and create a summer reading list. Things I have planned to do is go to a concert, another baseball game, and three more road trips. I watched the sun set can I interchange that for sunrise?
