✩ STRANDED 💬 Have you ever been on a cruise? 🤎📖 Snowpiercer meets The Hunger Games in a gripping near-future dystopian. Stranded by @sarahdanielsbooks sounds like such an exciting ride! A dystopian set at sea? 🛳️ Yes, please! Thank you to @sourcebooksfire for gifting me this copy! . . . s u m m a r y : Welcome to the Arcadia. Once a luxurious cruise ship, it became a refugee camp after being driven from Europe by an apocalyptic war. Now it floats near the coastline of the Federated States - a leftover piece of a fractured USA. For forty years, residents of the Arcadia have been prohibited from making landfall. It is a world of extreme haves and have nots, gangs and make-shift shelters. Esther is a loyal citizen, working flat-out to have the rare chance to live a normal life as a medic on dry land. Nik is a rebel, planning something big to liberate the Arcadia once and for all. When events throw them both together, their lives, and the lives of everyone on the ship, will change forever . . . . . . h a s h t a g s : #stranded #sarahdaniels #dystopian #scifibooks #postapocalyptic #beautifulbooks #bookphotography #cozyreading https://www.instagram.com/p/CoXnHiyO8p1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Reading Weather

My favorite season for snuggling in with a good book...or three.  

________________________________________________________________

The Stranded by Sarah Daniels

Esther is a med-student, but instead of being at university or a hospital, her classes are on the ship she and her family live on---the same ship she’s lived her whole life on. Nik has also spent his full life on this ship, but he and his family are on the side of the rebels, the group planning to take the ship ashore and liberate all of the passengers.  After the war, the ship has remained off the coast of the Federated States, but now Esther and Nik are forced to work together since Esther’s role as a do-gooder are going to try and do some good for the other side.  A YA novel set in a dystopian future, the book moves fast, not always clear on why everyone has been stranded out to sea (other than perhaps a vague political threat). At times, a little difficult to follow just due to the hectic running around and the chaos of the scenes.  Definitely held my interest, so I will likely read the second book, coming out next year.

The Writing Retreat by Julia Bartz

Alex is in a slump. She has been since the big fight with her best friend, Wren. Nothing seems to be going right:  Her job, her dates, and especially her writing are all a mess.  And then Alex gets the opportunity of a lifetime to attend a writing retreat for month at her favorite author’s personal estate.  The only drawback is that Wren will also be attending—that, and the fact that the estate is haunted.  This gothic-style book is a true page-turner, with lots of twists and turns to hold your interest.  Unfortunately, a few things fall apart at the very end, but I think it’s a great indulgent read anyway.

Such Pretty Flowers by K. L. Cerra

Holly has been a wreck since her brother, Dane’s, suicide.  When she starts spending time with Dane’s ex-girlfriend, more questions come up than answers, to the point where Holly is determined to get to know Maura better and do some investigating on her own, even if it means her own sanity and life are both in danger.  Told in a gothic-style in spooky Savannah, this spooky book has a very strong start.  Unfortunately, it goes off the rails a bit toward the end and we’re still left with some questions.  Lots of potential here, so I’m not completely writing this one off---I couldn’t put it down, and when it was good, it was very good!

Advice to all the cosmo students. Always have a pen and a notebook in your bag before you go into school. No matter how simple the cut may be it’s sometimes easier to just write it down for future reference. I’m a 90s baby so I always had to take notes in school. That’s something I probably won’t stop doing is writing things down. It’s a good habit to have when your laptop,phone or iPad decides to stop working. Anyways, be successful out there! #pmtslife #pmts #pmtst #pmtstoledo #paulmitchell #takenotes #cosmetology #idohair #sarahjane #sarahjanelabs #sarahdaniel #happyscissors #happycolor #madcolorscientist #colorist #hair #haircutting #cosmostudentadvice #notes #besuccessful

@SarahDaniels: 2/ so the schools don't understand & don't teach how the constitution structures the government to protect our FREEDOMS & keep power at the level closest to the individual. this is why Thomas Sowell is so important. Prager U. Jordan Peterson. Victor Davis Hanson. Newt Gingrich.: https://ift.tt/2GKoP0z

When a writer gets into their work! I attended a mini class last night at school and decided to use one of my colorful pens as inspiration. It didn’t turn out the way I intended but someone mentioned that it looks like my skin formed over it and it’s now stuck. Looks like I’m going to have to brush up on my effects skills. #sfx #sfxclass #specialeffectsmakeup #specialeffects #specialeffectmakeupartist #theatermakeup #glamandgore #sarahjane #sarahjanelabs #sarahdaniel #zombiemakeup #behindthescenes #moviemagic #moviemakeup #moviemakeupartist #penstabbing
