City of Love

Shall I recite to you the ways I love you Count you on my fingers and toes Shout so the sun can hear my voice

I might play it in a song Croon for you in do re mi Hear the harmonies ring in the rhythm of I love you

Shakespeare could not dream of a love this grand Hand in hand through space and time Before during and after life

You will see it in swans and pebbles washed up Taste it in the labour of my meals Feel it in water splashes from paddleboat propellers

Oh how I long to hold you and touch you and kiss you and feel you and kiss you and breath you and kiss you and kiss you and kiss you and kiss you and kiss you

Like your immortal cat, I shall live 1000 lives for you Keep up and I will show you all the ways I love you

But there is so much more in those words than just loving books. I love the smell of them. I love the way their bindings look pressed together on a shelf. I love the feel of pages buzzing through my fingers. I love big books and small books. I love words and how they’re strung together, and most of all, I love the stories. I love how books are not really just books at all, but doorways. They are portals into places I’ve never been and people I’ll never be, and in them I have lived a thousand lives and seen a thousand different worlds. In them I can be a princess or a knight of valor or a villain—I can be coveted, I can conquer on evils, I can defeat Dark Lords and destroy the One Ring and unite a Federation on the brink of collapse.

We Live 1000 Lives

Alright. Me and my friend Rebekah decided to start a youtube channel. Its about books. Be warned: the first video is super super awkward. Come laugh at our weirdness:

https://youtu.be/75YrbqTjYEg

Summary: I’m the tall one (Jess), my friend is Bekah, she likes contemporary teen novels, dystopians, and christian lit. I like all genres of teen novels, but I’ll pretty much read anything.

Tonight was our ultra awk intro video, thursday I’ll be uploading my bookshelf tour video, and Bekah will upload hers on tuesday. The next two videos will be each of us doing a review on our favorite book series, and then we will start just doing random books that we like. 

Books we are definitely doing videos on in the future:

-The Selection series and The Siren (both by Kiera Cass)

-The Mortal Instruments (Cassandra Clare)

-Fangirl and Carry On (Rainbow Rowell)

There are more, and I’ll make a more detailed list soon.
