Certainly enjoyed the Gatsby themed party “Drop it like F. Scott” in the gender-swapped He’s All That, but I think it’d be super fun to switch a physical altercation into a beading contest. Who can knot pearls fastest for their flapper gal / partner as they watch in awe?! Even without the party, or the 20’s themes, the young influencer and her friends certainly would enjoy the BoP custom jewelry experience. #hesallthat #hesallthatedit #padgettsawyer #padgettsawyeredit #dropitlikefscott #addisonrae #addisonraeedit #anniejacob #myramolloy #myramolloyedit #brinkweller #brinkwelleredit #isabellacrovetti #isabellacrovettiedit #besties #beadstringing #competition #pearlknotting #diyjewelry #customjewelry #diyjewelry #fashion #style #styleinspo #shesallthat #shop #nyc #unionsquare #beadsofparadise (at Beads of Paradise NYC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTVj_63HtvB/?utm_medium=tumblr

I can’t give a full recommendation because I haven’t read all of it, but we translated parts of Ovid’s Metamorphoses in Latin last semester, and I really liked the parts we translated. So if you haven’t read that, you totally should (and then let me know what you think! Okay, you should let me know what you think of all of these—especially Till We Have Faces. I love hearing your opinions…which I think I’ve said before, but it bears repeating.)

Oh, yeah. I understand that. One of my favorite teachers suggested a book, and it doesn’t sound like something I’d really enjoy, but I’m definitely going to try it because I respect her opinions so much. Anyway, tell me what you ultimately think of it! I’d been planning on reading it at some point.

This is such a well-timed question! I just started reading one of Cornelia Funke’s newer books because she was one of my favorite authors in middle school, but I really just can’t get into it, so I’ve been debating whether or not I want to try to finish it. I think you’re right though…it seems pointless to force yourself to finish a book that you’re not enjoying when there are so many others to read that you would enjoy. 

Aah, it's already really cute and I'm only in chapter two! I've been wanting to read it for forever :)

omg omg omg i can't. I honestly have such a huge blog-crush on you, so I feel incredibly, incredibly honored. (: I really hope you enjoy it! Let me know what you think. (:

I did like Middlemarch! Honestly, the first time I read it, I was kind of frustrated with both Dorothea and the ending (I think partly because it wasn’t necessarily what I was expecting, and I’d never read anything by George Eliot before). But the second time through, I really enjoyed it. I actually think that knowing more about Eliot as a person helped me appreciate it more.

[but he has two of my books so it isn't a big deal]
