Update| Writing a book

Hey beautiful booklovers!
Update:
So I've been gone for a long time.... a year to be exact... and I apologize! I took a break from writing reviews and posting on this blog but I am back and better than ever! I've read many great books while I was gone, I am not sure if I will be writing full reviews of ALL the books I've read over the year but I will try my best to post some of them up.

Announcement:
I just finished taking a creative writing course this passed Spring semester at my university and it has motivated me to finally start outlining and writing the book that has been taking over all of my dreams lately. I am super excited to start this process. I want to share a weekly/bi-weekly progress of my writing adventures on this blog and I would love for you all to join me. Also I plan to join NaNoWriMo 2016 this November for the first time and I am anxious to see how that goes as well.

If you have any advice on writing, outlining, plotting, character development, anything that has to do with writing a novel I would very much appreciate the advice and comments.

Thank you for reading!

I've Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella

Goodreads summary:

"Poppy Wyatt has never felt luckier. She is about to marry her ideal man, Magnus Tavish, but in one afternoon her “happily ever after” begins to fall apart. Not only has she lost her engagement ring in a hotel fire drill but in the panic that follows, her phone is stolen. As she paces shakily around the lobby, she spots an abandoned phone in a trash can. Finders keepers! Now she can leave a number for the hotel to contact her when they find her ring. Perfect!

Well, perfect except that the phone’s owner, businessman Sam Roxton, doesn't agree. He wants his phone back and doesn't appreciate Poppy reading his messages and wading into his personal life.

What ensues is a hilarious and unpredictable turn of events as Poppy and Sam increasingly upend each other’s lives through emails and text messages. As Poppy juggles wedding preparations, mysterious phone calls, and hiding her left hand from Magnus and his parents . . . she soon realizes that she is in for the biggest surprise of her life."

Fifty Shades Of Grey by E.L James

Goodreads summary:

"When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Ana’s quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too—but on his own terms.

Shocked yet thrilled by Grey’s singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all the trappings of success—his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his loving family—Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana discovers Christian Grey’s secrets and explores her own dark desires."

Me and Mr.Darcy by Alexandria Potter

Goodreads summary: 
"After a string of disastrous dates, Emily Albright decides she’s had it with modern-day love and would much rather curl up with Pride and Prejudice and spend her time with Mr. Darcy, the dashing, honorable, and passionate hero of Jane Austen’s classic. So when her best friend suggests a wild week of margaritas and men in Mexico with the girls, Emily abruptly flees to England on a guided tour of Jane Austen country instead. Far from inspiring romance, the company aboard the bus consists of a gaggle of little old ladies and one single man, Spike Hargreaves, a foul-tempered journalist writing an article on why the fictional Mr. Darcy has earned the title of Man Most Women Would Love to Date.

The last thing Emily expects to find on her excursion is a broodingly handsome man striding across a field, his damp shirt clinging to his chest. But that’s exactly what happens when she comes face-to-face with none other than Mr. Darcy himself. Suddenly, every woman’s fantasy becomes one woman’s reality"
