Hello nerds, geeks, and dorks. Elle here. I found this tag (I’ve been doing a ton of tags) on Rebecca’s blog. She tagged anyone and I needed some posts, so here we go.
Five things that have been getting me throughquarantine
Blogging/podcasting- I’ve enjoyed being able to still put my stuff out there and share my voice even during these stupid times.
The internet/Technology- I’ve been able to “hang out” with my cousin over FaceTime, put together two podcasts, and listen to a ton of books!
Disney+- I can watch as many Disney movies or shows which is great. They’ve also been releasing some movies early because of quarantine.
Libby- Because libraries are closed, Libby is one of my most used apps, I get to listen to audio books and read a bunch of books!
My mom’s iPad- Procreate is a gift for digital artists. My mom lets me use her iPad to draw stuff for here!
Five blogs to check out
I blog– She isn’t lying when she says she blogs a little bit of everything. I only found her today (at the time of writing this), but she’s super cool!
Karleen– Her blog is only getting up and running, but she’s the same type of blogger as me, books and art.
Beck– I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again, Beck is awesome! She’s one of the first book bloggers I’ve interacted with and inspired me to just be my weird self!
Madeline– I’ve mentioned Madeline before too. She’s another book blogger (No wonder I turned into a bit of a book blog, almost all of my favorite blogs are book blogs!) and is really fun.
Jaedyn– I met Jaedyn on Camp NaNo earlier. We have most of the same interests (Blogging, theater, writing, and Pinterest) so we bonded and kinda became internet friends.
Five foods I love
Chocolate chip cookies! Especially my moms. She makes the best cookies, cakes, tarts. I could keep going!
Spaghetti- It was always my favorite growing up (still is). It just has a bunch of good memories.
Ice cream- It’s ice cream. You can make a bunch of yummy stuff with it and it’s delicious.
PBJ sandwiches- we have these all the time and they’re always super good.
Apples- my favorite fruit. I love to chop them up and get a spoonful of peanut butter.
Five places I’d love to visit
All the Disney parks- I love Disney, but I’ve only been to Disneyland and Disneyworld and I’d love to see Disneyland Paris.
Salt Lake City- What can I say? I love High School Musical and it would be super cool to see East High.
New York- I’m quite a theater nerd and it would be AMAZING to go to New York.
Greece- I love Greek myths. I’d love to see a bunch of the buildings and statues.
Scotland- It would be really epic to see the Highland Games in Scotland. Plus there’s castles.
Five favorite books
Lost Hero- Rick Riordan
Geekerella- Ashley Poston
Better Nate than ever- Tim Federle
Drum roll, please!- Lisa Jenn Bigelow
The Ship of the Dead- Rick Riordan
So there’s that… I hope you guys enjoy. Leave a comment bellow, I’d love to talk to you! Remember, look to the stars. Aim. Ignite!

A BOOK YOU’VE BEEN MEANING TO READ FOR FOREVER
The lost years of Merlin. I really need to read it.
AN INTIMIDATING BOOK ON YOUR TBR
Infinity by Sherrilyn Kenyon. I accidentally started the second book in the series, so I want to read this one, but the second one was really weird. And not the good type of weird.
TOP 3 PRIORITY BOOKS ON YOUR TBR
Call of the Wild
Infinity
The Lost Years of Merlin
RECOMMEND A SHORT BOOK
GEEKERELLA!!! And The Princess and the Fangirl! Please, somebody read this. It took me, like, a day to read these and they were so amazing! They both had LGBT characters, they were well developed, I could keep ranting!
RECOMMEND A LONG BOOK
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe. (Side note: the audiobook is read by Lin-Manuel Miranda and it’s amazing)
SOMETHING YOU’D LOVE TO DO WHILE STUCK AT HOME
Finish my books! 🙂 I have two current books in progress and, of course, The Maid of Orléans.
Hello nerds, geeks, and dorks! Elle here. Happy Fourth of July! After trying the Percy Jackson book tag, I had an idea for a Hamilton book tag and wanted to try it.
Before we begin, have you watched Hamilton on Disney+? Comment what you think, your favorite song, and favorite character! I loved it. My favorite song is either Guns and Ships or just Alexander Hamilton! My favorite character is definitely Lafayette.

Match books with the given prompts
Tag anyone you’d like
Copy and paste the list of prompts and rules
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins. My mom walked in with it from work and I was reading it constantly.
My old sketchbooks. My old art looks so terrible, in my opinion.
The Princess and the Fangirl by Ashley Poston. If you haven’t noticed, I love her books.
The Dive trilogy by Gordon Korman. All of his books are so underrated that I’m pretty sure my best friend and I are the whole fandom.
The Percy Jackson series. One of my first fandoms. I can’t remember if Harry Potter was before or after Percy Jackson.
Heroes of Olympus! Not many guns. Unless you count the ballista. But ships? Both the kind that you ride on and the couples are very numerous.
Firestorm by Joan Hiatt Harlow. Only one, but the most plot-pointy spy it could have.
Geekerella! My namesake. Once I read all of my Libby TBR, I know that I’ll reread it.
High school musical the musical the series the novelization. Still waiting. Until I can go to Books a Million, I’ll be waiting for it.
Let’s just say that Imogen and I would be best friends. So I’d say The Princess and the Fangirl, again.
Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein! It has some of my absolute favorite poems. The combination of his hilarious poems and fun, simple drawings makes the book even more amazing.
I always got so sucked into Rick Riordan’s books. I would be reading in bed and before I knew it, it was way to late.
The Ship of the Dead by Rick Riordan! I remember having a bad day and just flipping through the pages until I got to my favorite chapter (37. Alex bites my face off).
I didn’t really want to read A Frozen Heart (book retelling of Frozen) but it was really good! Mainly because you got to see why Hans did what he did.
So there you go! Anyone is free to do this.
I hope you enjoy. Comment bellow. I’d love to talk to you! Remember, look to the stars. Aim. Ignite!
Hard choice. I’ve read a TON of great books and we’re not even close to done with the year yet. So far, I’d have to say The Princess and the Fangirl by Ashley Poston.
The Land of Stories by Chris Colfer. The idea is just super fun and I enjoyed reading them!
Masterminds by Gordon Korman. It’s a great story and has a really fun writing style.
The Doctor and the Dinosaurs by Mike Resnick. I didn’t really think I’d hate it, but I wasn’t expecting to like it so much.
The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan. (I really hope the series does ALL of his mythology books. I want to see Leo on screen.)
The Lost Property Office by James R. Hannibal. It’s just a really cool book in general!
The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins. (I’m also excited to see Thalia!)
Harry Potter! What more do I need to say?
Hmm. No clue. Probably something long?
High School Musical the Musical the Series the Novelization. I cannot wait to read this! (I’m sorry I’m obsessed with this show)
Again. No clue. Comment some upcoming books you are excited for!
The Dive Trilogy by Gordon Korman. My best friend convinced me to read this and I loved it!
Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman. I was laughing almost constantly while reading this!
Pooh Bear by A. A. Milne! I’ve had this book literally as long as I can remember.
The Ship of the Dead by Rick Riordan. I never wanted to finish this one!
I don’t think I have one?
Can I punch the Percy Jackson movies? No? Alright. Firestorm by Joan Hiatt Harlow. I enjoyed it, but I wanted to either cry or throw the book out the window sometimes.
I don’t really read romance? But I enjoyed Elle and Darian in Geekerella by Ashley Poston and of course Percy and Annabeth in all of Rick Riordan!
So there you go. I hope you enjoyed! Remember Look to the Stars. Aim. Ignite!
