Warm Weather and Cute Canines

Hello readers,
Springtime is coming up, and my corner of the world is warming up a lot. It has gone from freezing my buns off if I step outside for three seconds to wearing just a sweater. The deep thaw has finally worn off, and I am glad.
I have been spending the Long, Cold Winter by reading popular fiction. Here is my Grand List:

Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell (nay)
Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell (yay)
Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins (yay)
Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins (nay)
The Fault in our Stars by John Green (one hundred percent yes)
Divergent by Veronica Roth (nay)
Insurgent by Veronica Roth (nay)
Part of Allegiant by Veronica Roth (hated it so much that I didn't finish it.)

As you can see, most of the books I hated. I don't like most popular fiction.


Anyway, I have welcomed a new puppy to my life, a wriggly King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. Her name is Pip and she is six months old.
She loves walks but hates people. I'm teaching her to lie down, and because she catches on to things pretty well, she is learning quite fast.
I have been quite busy with my homeschooling and my classes, which is why I haven't been posting as much, and I'm sorry.

 Xoxo, Taryn
