Happy end to November bookworms! With December looming around, as well as the holidays about to come up, I know a lot of people go into crazy mode with getting gifts.

Okay maybe a couple other items as well, but I mean a bookworm should definitely have books on their mind. With that being said, here is my book haul for the month of November! I hope you enjoy!!

Future Perfect By: Jen Larsen
Future Perfect
Author: Jen Larsen
Publisher: Harper Teen
Published: October 2015
Format: Paperback
Pages: 320
Rating: 3.5/5
Summary:
Every year on her birthday, Ashley Perkins gets a card from her grandmother-a card that always contains a promise: lose enough weight, and I will buy your happiness.
Ashley doesn't think there's anything wrong with the way she looks, but no amount of arguing can persuade her grandmother that "fat" isn't a dirty word-that Ashley is happy with her life, and her body, as it is.
But Ashley wasn't counting on having her dreams served up on a silver platter at her latest birthday party. She falters when Grandmother offers the one thing she's always wanted: tuition to attend Harvard University-in exchange for undergoing weight loss surgery.
As Ashley grapples with the choice that little white card has given her, she feels pressured by her friends, her family, even administrators at school. But what's a girl to do when the reflection in her mirror seems to bother everyone but her?
Through her indecision's and doubts, Ashley's story is a liberating one-a tale of one girl, who knows that weight is just a number, and that no one is completely perfect.

Hello Bookworms!! Today I have a post that is not like most of my regulars. (as I'm sure you all figured out by the title of it...) Today is the cover release day for a debut author that was found from Watt pad. He is getting his book published, which will be released in December, and I am so fortunate to be part of his journey from Cover release to actually reading his book! So without further ado, let's bring on the cover!

Light In The Shadows By: A. Meredith Walters
Light in the Shadows (Find You in the Dark #2)
Author: A. Meredith Walters
Publisher: Gallery Books
Published: July 2014 (originally May 2013)
Format: Paperback
Pages: 366
Rating: 5/5
Summary:
How do you keep going when you feel like your life is over?
Maggie never thought she'd see Clay again. So, she attempts to put her life back together after her heart has been shattered to pieces. Moving on and moving forward, just as Clay wanted her to. Clay never stopped thinking of Maggie. Even after ripping their lives apart and leaving her behind to get the help he so desperately needed. He is healing...slowly. But his heart still belongs to the girl who tried to save him.
When a sudden tragedy brings Maggie and Clay face-to-face again, nothing is the same. Yet some things never change. Can the darkness that threatened to consume them be transformed into something else and finally give them what they always wanted? And can two people who fought so hard to be together, finally find their happiness? Or will their demons and fear drive them apart for good?
The thing about love is even when it destroys you, it has a way of mending what is broken. And in the shadows, you can still see the light.
