Alice In The Country Of Clovers

Hi love bugs! 

I haven't been posting anything up recently because I have been a sewing maniac! I had to put Kagerou [Inu x Boku SS] on hold for a bit, since I figured that a dress will take up more time and effort on my part.

Diving straight to it! I started to work on my Alice dress, I might wear this for most days since I am absolutely proud of how it came out. I just need to do a couple of things & I should have this bad boy completed by the next two days! 

 

Another exciting news is that this is the first I have ever gotten colored contacts to go along with my cosplay [still looking for pink ones for Karuta] but it definitely is a new feeling & for some reason my right eye just didn't want to take in the contact at first but eventually it finally did so I am very excited about this! 

So, I'm super pumped about Anime Expo & I should be posting more as it gets near & as I go to the convention.
Until next time~

 Book Review  

The Fault In Our Stars: The #1 New York Times bestseller that Time Magazine called “damn near genius,” The Fault in Our Stars is the story of Hazel Lancaster and Augustus Waters, two Indianapolis teenagers who meet at a Cancer Kid Support Group. (via http://johngreenbooks.com)

Where do I even begin with this? I read this book about a month ago & let me tell you something really quick- when I start reading a book written by John Green I find myself immersed in it. There is no option of putting that book down. Anyways, the book follows the life of Hazel, a 16 year old girl and her fight with her illness. She attends the support groups finding herself unattached to it. But one day she meets this guy Augustus Waters. They have this cute banter between one another, and you know you ship them. So hard. We follow these two on their journey, how they don't let their illnesses define who they are & how they deal with obstacles that are placed on their journey. In the end, I think we all need to learn from Hazel Grace & Augustus.

This is the type of book that I recommend to my friends, because they also have to experience this book, these wonderful characters that just end up leaving you attached to them. It is really well written and thought out, I honestly can't describe how good this book is until you experience it for yourself! It will be a book that you will not forget & that you will find yourself thinking about it from time to time. John Green is a writer that you will remember & want to continue reading his books.

 11/10
