Book Traveling Thursdays (#2)

Hey everyone! Happy New Year! Today is my second and last Book Traveling Thursday of the year. Book Traveling is a weekly meme created by Danielle’s Book Blog and Catia @The Girl Who Read Too Much. You should definitely check out their blogs! Below is all about the weekly meme. You can find information and themes at the Goodreads Group.

1) Pick a book! At the beginning of every month a list of themes will be posted. All you have to do is choose a book that fits the theme.
2) In your blog post, the first thing you will want to include is an explanation of why your chosen book fits the theme.
2) Look at covers from multiple editions and multiple countries for the book you chose.
3) Finally, include pictures of the original cover, the cover from your country (if their are multiple covers from your country include all of them!), your favorite cover, and your least favorite cover.
4) Be sure to tag your posts with booktravelingthursdays so we can all see each other’s posts!

The last theme this year is “It’s the last day of 2015! Choose your favorite book read in 2015.”

---

The obvious answer for this would be a Harry Potter book but I did that last week. I decided instead to do The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. I definitely raved about this book all year!

Original Cover/Cover from My Country (USA):

This is both the original cover and the cover for my country (The USA)

---

My Favorite(s):

Movie Edition

Portuguese

Czech

German

I love the Portuguese cover because it’s so beautiful! The movie one is amazing because it actually shows Hazel and Gus. The Czech cover is unique because the title and authors name is inside two hearts. The German cover is beautiful!

---

Least Favorite(s):

Italian

Dutch

Arabic

Spanish

Swedish

There are so many bad ones! The Swedish one at least has to with the story while the Italian one really doesn’t. The Spanish cover is pretty but doesn’t look like Hazel at all.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned for more Book Traveling Thursdays next year 😀

Christmas Haul 2015

Hey everyone! Happy New Years Eve or New Year depending on where you live. This post is a bit late but at least I got it done this year 😉 This Christmas I went to my Grandma’s for brunch, opened lots of presents, and spend lots of time with family.

How was your Christmas? Let me know in the comments!

I decided to take some pictures and show you some of the great gifts I got.

---

First off, I got lots of Harry Potter clothing. My mom got me quite a few T-shirts including the ones featured in this picture. I also got a Harry Potter beanie! As you know, I’m now absolutely obsessed with all things Harry Potter so this was perfect 🙂

---

 

I also received some awesome pajama pants from my mom and some fuzzy polar bear pajamas from my grandma.

These are the exact pajama pants. They are flannel and so comfortable!

---

 

This wasn’t the best photo quality but I used my IPad camera 😀

---

To keep with the fuzzy and warm theme, my mom got me a big blanket and a new sweatshirt.

I couldn’t get a very good picture of the sweatshirt. It’s a zip up hoodie and super comfortable.

---

 

I received I Funny TV from my mom and I can’t wait to read it!

---

My Grandma got me a Marauder’s Map Hot Topic gift card! I absolutely can’t wait to use it 🙂

---

I got lots of delicious food including this container of different kinds of popcorn.

Our container has a Santa on it but is bigger than this one.

---

I got more gifts than this but I only wanted to show a few.

What did you get for Christmas? Let me know!

That’s my Christmas Haul. I had more actual pictures but I forgot to edit them before I sent them to my email.

Thanks for reading and stay tuned for more hauls!
