[Inky] Why hello there! It’s Inky here to kick-off another Nators Discuss! Today we have a very FUN topic chosen by Jessi: Book Boyfriends! Holl-UH. Thanks to Stephanie from Chasm of Books , Shannon from Rex Robot Reviews & Melanie from YA Midnight Reads for inspiring this topic! [Jessi] What exactly makes a fictional boy swoony? Is it the sexy factor? Boy next door, or bad boy? Sweet, or aloof? [Inky] Depends on the person I’d say. For me, it’s gonna be a combination or my mood at the time. In generally I’m partial to the goofy best friend personality. The funny boys that make you laugh and smile all over. I do like my share of the dark yummy boys though. [Jessi] Yes, you do tend to go for the vanilla, er, nice ones, which is why we typically disagree on Teams [Inky] >.< Thankfully we still get along...most of the time. *coughs* So who are your “book boyfriends?” Any favorites? [Jessi] To tell you the truth, the only ‘Book Boyfriends’ I have are Warner from Unravel Me a...

[Jessi] Hello loverlies! We’re here today to talk about our reviewing processes! [Inky] Thanks so much to Lisseth from Read-A-Holicz for submitting this topic! Let’s get this party started! The Reviewing Process So Nator Twin, is there a specific way that you review books? Well, for me, there definitely is. I have to take notes when I’m reading, otherwise I forget everything. When I keep track of my thoughts, I feel like I have more in depth and accurate reviews. Plus, I like to use quotes to back my claims! And we all know how famous your quotes are for making me want to read or not a book. (If you didn’t, now you do). (I didn’t know. Thank you for the enlightenment!) I used to read a book, then make up my post and write my review as soon as I finished. Then I started getting really bad at reviewing things as soon as I was done, letting them pile up until I had 4 or more reviews I still needed to write. As a result, my reviews got more and more vague! Then recently I adopted Ashley’s...

[Jessi] Hello loverlies! Jessinator and Inkinator here with the second Nators Discuss! It got pushed back a few weeks because of absolute procrastination and laziness on our (okay, my ) part, but you can expect next month’s to be on the second Saturday. This week we’re talking about.... Those Darn Pet Peeves This topic was submitted by Melanie from YA Midnight Reads . Thanks Melanie! Do you have one specific thing (or several) in literature that just annoys the crap out of you? You’re just minding your own business, trying to enjoy your book, and BAM! there it is, making your eye twitch? We feel you! [Inky] Aaah Jessinator, ickile things Pet Peeves are. We hates them, we HATES them don’t we precious? [Jessi] Yes we do, precious. We do! But anyway.. I’m just gonna kick it off, talking about one of the most common peeves. INSTALOVE. I DESPISE INSTALOVE. WITH THE FIRE OF A THOUSAND SUNS. You can’t love someone you just met a week ago! Argh. I believe you used the exact same phrase last m...

[Inky] Hey Hey Hey! It’s Saturday! To be more specific, the SECOND Saturday. Meaning...It’s Nators Discuss time! We’re gonna kick it off with the Jessinator talking about sheep. A perfectly appropriate topic for a book blog, if I do say so myself.    On being the Black Sheep.... Have you been super hyped for a book that everyone loved, only to be disappointed?  [Jessi] For some reason when EVERYONE else loves something - I’m talking 4 and 5 star ratings almost everywhere and ALL my friends adore it - I end up being that one pessimist that doesn’t like it. Take *coughs* Sweet Evil, for instance. I know, I know. Please hold on your tomatoes for the moment. I hated it. In fact, hate isn’t even a strong enough word. Despised with the fire of a thousand suns. Raaaawrrr. Nator twin on the loose! Seriously! Every time I see another person give it a glowing rating, my soul dies a little more. Guys, this book has a 4.23 average Goodreads rating, with 4 and 5 star reviews almost ...
