While surfing around twitter, i saw @amyholderbooks talking about an auction to help Japan, more specifically the children of Japan. This absolutely thrilled me!! I am somewhat of a philanthropist myself, so it warms my heart sooo much when i see people helping others! :)So basically, the participating authors have put together books and book related merch bundles to have auctioned off. Once the highest bidder is determined all the paypal funds from the bids are given to Savethechildren.org! AMAZING!! :)Hurry over before your fave book is gone!! :)

Plot Points (03/22)

Plot Points is a new feature here where i talk about the essential identifiers of the books im reading! Most posts talk about writing style or character personality, but i wanted to explain the actual foundation of the story.

Like most dystopia books, the government, called the Society in this book, controls everything!These people seem to have various "Banquets"...One for finding your mate, another for when you died (
