The Entire Harry Potter Series: Harry Potter is J. K. Rowling’s gift to the world, and that will not be the only time you hear me say that. It’s the…

Being Positive for a Full Day
Oh my goodness guys! This is my second day in a row posting! I believe that’s a first and I’m super excited. The reason I’m on here today is to talk about being positive. I think it’s extremely important and today I tried my best to be positive all day!
I think I used to be pretty positive. Even more so after high school, but still pretty positive. I could be wrong, but I just figured I was one…

Struggling With My Faith
Struggling With My Faith
I recently watched one of my favorite YouTubers, Jeanine Amapola, and became reminded of her word of the year. She has been living by the word Abide, which to her means growing closer to God and keeping true to herself and her faith. It was a word she chose because she didn’t want her move to L.A. to change her. She’s such an inspiration, which is why I felt it necessary to discuss how I would…

The Lunar Chronicles Book 1: Cinder
Cinder is book one in The Lunar Chronicles series, written by Marissa Meyers. I have to say, it’s a pretty damn good book. I’ll try not to put any spoilers in this review, but if you wanna be extra careful, don’t read! That being said, here’s my honest review of Cinder.
This book does something very well that I feel a lot of books don’t do as much anymore. It begins with a sentence that catches…

It’s finally here! It felt like I had been waiting forever for my subscription box to come, but today was the day.
This is the first time I had ever subscribed to a book box, so I was a bit wary at first, but so far so good! There are so many goodies I want to share with you guys so stay tuned!!
This month’s classic fiction book is The Count of Monte Cristo written by Alexandre Dumas.
I hadn’t read this classic before so I am quite excited to read it. It’s a pretty thick book, labeled as a thriller of sorts. The cover work is beautifully abstract and the overall smell is fantastic.
Yes, smell. Haha, I’m one of those people who prefer real books over ebooks because of the scent. It’s a really good quality paperback that is brand new. It was packaged well, which helped to avoid tears and dents.
Next, I got coffee! I am an avid coffee drinker so I was very excited that I received it in this month’s box.
It is from the Coffee Shop of Horrors, which I’ll be purchasing from in the future. It looks to be a great flavor, Vanilla Cinnamon, based on the comic V for Vendetta. It’s a pretty good size too. You get 2 oz worth of ground coffee. I haven’t tasted it yet. I had already had coffee when this appeared on my doorstep. However, I’ll be making strides to drink this on my next day off, and share it with Keith!
Next up, we have Sugar Bowl Bakery Madeleines.
Normally, I’m not a huge fan of these cookies because they’re oftentimes hard. Yet, somehow, these madeleines are super soft still, as though they are fresh from the oven. I received two of them in the box. They should lie very well with the coffee, and I can also share these with Keith. If they are as good as they look, I’ll most certainly have to look into purchasing more from this bakery.
We then have a beautiful glass mug.
It has a crest on it with the words Wait & Hope scribed onto it. It’s a beautifully made mug and quite interesting. I’ve never had a glass mug before and I’m interested to know how well it withstands heat.
I’ll be using this mug for sure when I drink the coffee! The design of this mug was done by Coffee and a Classic themselves. I’m sure it has something to do with the book, but until I read it, I wouldn’t know for sure.
We then come to bookish item number one. These are socks from the company Out of Print.
They are The Count of Monte Cristo themed socks. On the bottom of the right sock, it says “Free Dantes”.
These socks are actually really comfortable. They give me Doctor Who vibes because of the tally marks. These would be pretty cool cosplay socks for that reason. This company seems pretty cool too! With every purchase, they donate a book to a community in need. Books are very important, so I stand by their values.
The next bookish item is a set of book cover pins from Coffee and a Classic. It shows three different classic book covers for The Count of Monte Cristo.
I’m having a hard time deciding where I want to put these. They would make amazing magnets, but I also want to keep them as pins. I guess I could always pin them to my shirt or a jacket. I like the feel of the pins as well. They smooth and they feel well made!
Lastly, we have the Handsewn Corner Bookmark from Coffee and a Classic.
I have never seen or heard of a corner bookmark before, but I already love the idea. It’s beautifully crafted too.
It comes in a satin red, drawstring bad. It’s red and blue, and I can’t wait to see if it holds any significance to the book!
For the price of $38/ month plus shipping, it was totally worth it. You get a lot of things out of this box. You can decide to get the smaller box as well, which would be a cheaper option. You would receive a book and the bookish items, just not the option of a hot beverage or a mug.
I hope you guys enjoyed this post! I urge y’all to check out this box and see for yourself. Thanks for reading!
Xoxo
Coffee and a Classic April 2018!!! It's finally here! It felt like I had been waiting forever for my subscription box to come, but today was the day.
Ashen Rain... a sample
Ashen Rain… a sample
No one heard the screams. The roaring of the flames. The laughter. No one felt the ashen rain falling on their heads. Yet, here in the middle of the hall, there was a pyre. On that pyre, bound to the stake, were women, men, and children. Screaming. Burning.
Dancing around the flames was a nimble acrobat with a powdered face and bells on his feet. He danced to amuse his master, who looked on…

Mind Dump
Today has been a pretty freakin’ awful day. I feel like a failure. I feel depressed. I feel behind. So much for the “adulting”, I told myself I was going to do. If I can’t even get basic things done, then what’s the point? That’s how today feels. What was the point of figuring out that my life isn’t going how I planned it anytime soon?
For starters, I was doing my best to get through the day…

I Have Anxiety… and It’s Okay
Do you ever feel like your chest is so tight that it might explode? Like the stress you feel could kill you if you let it get to you even more than it already has? Do you feel as though you’re drowning in a sea of discomfort and pain all because some things seem a little overwhelming? That’s anxiety.
By definition, anxiety is “a feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease, typically about an…

How I Pamper Myself (As of March 2018)
My life is not as stressful as some, but it is stressful enough for me. It varies from Keith and I trying to find a new bed (we currently sleep on a couch), trying to get a dresser and a bigger desk, homework, and working at 4 am. I have to get some sort of me time in to not go bezzerkers!
Of course, pampering starts with a wonderful charcoal mask. I leave it one for about… well, however long I…

Don’t Let Anyone Downplay Your Dreams
Let me share this little story with y’all.
So, I work at a grocery store as a stocker. It’s only temporary because my ambition in life is to become a writer, and a damn good one too. I go to school for English and, while it may seem to myself that I’ve been in school forever, everyone does things at their own pace.
Okay, now back to my story, now that y’all have the background. An elderly…

Life Update
Hey guys! I hope you enjoy my little update!!
So, I’ve been gone for a while. It wasn’t ideal and it wasn’t planned, but since then, I have been trying to get some things in order.
First things first! I live with my boyfriend now! We’ve been happy and surviving somehow. I’m still in the process of getting everything straightened up and getting a few more things. We need a new mattress now and a dresser amongst other things. For the most…

They are affordable too, especially at Walmart, Target and if anyone has one left in their town, Kmart.
