  1. I LOVE this post!! And you're re-reading TFiOS! I absolutely loved that, and probably a lot of John Green's books! I really want to read Colleen Hoover's series, too. It looks amazing! I saw on the side of your blog that one of your favourite series' is Hush, Hush?! I am so in love with that series. :) :)
