Hello everyone! I'm very excited, because today I get to do what I've been promising myself (and I might have promised you guys, who knows) I would do for ages.....A BOOKSHELF TOUR! Yep, there's my bookshelf. Sort of. Since I wrote the beginning of this post, I got more books and began expanding upward...so the top shelf is now about a quarter of the way full! But whatever. The first shelf is what I call "The Girly Book" shelf because it's the sort of books only girls really want to read. Also, in real life all the book spines are very vibrant yellows, pinks, blues, and greens. It also includes my dance recital books, yearbooks, and on the far right, nonfiction. (There's not much of it.) My favorite series on this shelf would have to be Main Street, Confectionately Yours, Friends for Keeps, and Allie Finkle. Oh yeah, this shelf also has all my American Girl books! (Sort of. Most of the story ones are on a bookshelf upstairs, but all my "guides" are down on the shelf.) This one is my "Favorite Series" shelf. AND RIGHTLY SO! It has Harry Potter (if you've read my blog, you understand what that means to me), Land of Stories, Mysterious Benedict Society, and the Percy Jackson books. (And one of the Kane Chronicles.) I love them all SO MUCH! I think they're all mentioned a post you can click here to read. It's kind of funny- my favorite genre is realistic fiction, but most of my favorite series' are fantasy. This is also a series' shelf and I love them all, even if they didn't quite get to the favorite series shelf. First we have the Warriors series, which I was obsessed with in 4th grade. I was in a Warriors club and everything. I kind of got tired of those, but I still have them because they are still amazing. Then there's The Series of Unfortunate Events, which everyone knows is FANTABULOUS!!!! Don't let the titles stop you from reading them. Then we go on into the Dear Americas, which I love because I love historical fiction and reading any type of book set as a diary. Next is Babysitter's Club (amazing), Guardians of Ga'Hoole (liked but forgot what happened), and a few other series that are just good. :-) Or amazing. Same thing. Next is a shelf that's a conglomeration of all types of books! We have here some overflow series, single books, a tiny historical fiction section, and yeah. Let's start with the series. There's the Tales from Alcatraz series, which I love, especially since I've been there. There's also Lunch Lady, a few Clive Cussler children books, and then some random single books. As for a few historical fictions, I have Bud, Not Buddy, George Washington's Spy, The Lions of Little Rock, and Fever. _Finally, the last shelf! When I first redid my bookshelf about six months ago, I wanted to keep the top shelf free for decoration. Unfortunately, the books just kept coming and are currently invading it. Right now it has a clock made for me by my friend Emma, a little flower, a clay owl, and then just some random books, including Mother-Daughter Book Camp by Heather Vogel Frederick! I won a giveaway she had on her blog for an ARC of it, and let me tell you, it's amazing. That's the end of my bookshelf tour! It sounds weird, but my bookshelf is a key point in blogging for me. Obviously it provides me with books to keep me happy, but it also is the background for most of the pictures of myself I take for Writer's Digest. So, what does your bookshelf look like? Do you have any of these books? Tell me in the comments! Until next time...

YES AND THEN IN THE NEXT BOOK I THINK THE DEDICATION WAS LIKE "sorry about that cliffhanger...except not really." Or maybe that was another one, like the House of Hades, because they almost all have cliffhangers.
