so I’m in the middle of a classic, nonfiction, and historical book�..but like…My dystopian collection is calling me to reread
I REALLY wanna reread the Divergent series, cause I really did not enjoy it the first time but I also read the trilogy in about 5 days…so�.I think I’m gonna do that
i stopped on Insurgent and I wanna continue but I forgot everythingg hahaha so I'll reread it too !!
Mod
I love that it ties in with my bio
Tonight I’m gonna try to make serious progress on my pile of books so prepare for opinions
Mod
New books!
Tell me if they’re good because I’m almost out if books to read
alright y’all it’s time. Spoiler warning
I’m about to start chapter 34 of Legally Blonde. First off, I don’t like it…I don’t like the drastic differences between the book and the movie and musical. However, I definitely prefer the storyline of the movie and musical than the book. The characters aren’t all there, or the same. Elle doesn’t seem to have her crazy realization that “oh yeah I don’t need Warner I can do whatever I can cause I’m determined and he’s a jerk!� (In the musical this is the song “So Much Better�) AND UH THEYRE NO EMMETT WHO IS AWESOME!?! And he’s not here which is disappointing. I think Christopher is the book version of Emmett, but I’m also getting the lawyer/boss dude from movie/book vibes so I’m curious to see how the end is. Cause in the movie and musical the boss dude flirts with Elle and basically tells her he hired her cause she’s hot, but that would totally contrast if Christopher is also supposed to be Emmett. Unless idk maybe Emmett is just completely gone.

Wait, hold up. Legally Blonde was a book first?!?!?! What? I've seen the movie (both my mom and sister enjoy it), but I didn't know it was a book.
I don’t exactly like any of the characters here�.they all bother me in one way or another�.I watched Legally Blonde and was like okay this is cool. Then I listened to the mauical’s soundtrack and watched the performance online and loved it! I’ve read musical-book books before and they were great! Dear Evan Hansen is a fantastic book that matches the musical. I guess because the musical is based off the movie..?
Idk man I don’t like it�.kinda tempted to not finish it but I also REALLY need to know if Emmett is real
Mod
lol XD
The reader struggles are real. That moment where you want to DNF a book, but are too invested in one of the characters and have too many questions to call it quits

It’s as if though you’re writing a review! Anyway, is the book good because I may read it�.
Based on what i've read so far... nah just go watch the musical
oh wow I just started reading again and Elle dog-ears her books…the audacity
Mod
My dad does that!! I hate it, as does my sister. The only book I've ever dog-eared was New Moon for note purposes. My sister bought it secondhand a long time ago and wasn't a big fan of the series, so she was okay with it. I don't dog-ear nice copies of books. I don't even dog-ear library books.
Mod
lol XD
True. I almost always have some kind of bookmark with me though, especially when I have a book. I scarcely carry a book without carrying a bookmark as well.
OKAY I FINISHED IT
hmmm…I…idk…like Elle had her moment where she dropped Warner…Elle and Sarah (the book version of Vivian) became friends…idk it was fun to see how different the original was to the movie, (and movie to the musical) Christopher was only her boss, no crazy backstory and no Emmett. The ending was Elle and Sarah talking about finals and studying together and Sarah got a haircut�.like that’s it�.no graduation, no Elle moving on and finding a new love interest. There could of been at least another 5 chapters to give a good conclusion and satisfying ending. If anyone reading this is actually looking for advice, I wouldn’t recommend this book, but instead if your looking for legally blonde content, watch the movie or musical. Or if your looking for a book with the collage trope maybe try One Day In December by Josie Silver (Early post collage, and enjoyable love drama. 10/10 love this book) Or Book with a musical adaptation: Dear Evan Haven.
Legally Blonde: 2/5 stars

It is 2am where I am and I have a headache but I’m determined to pull and all nighter so I might go read more
good luckk, i can't stay awake past 12 aa hahah
another night another episode of "Scoooodles nightly opinions" tonight i believe we will either read Dune or Honey and Venom: Confessions of an Urban Beekeeper I just finished painting my nails lavender and I am all set. See y'all in a few hours
I forgot to updateeee but I read some Dune. It’s pretty good, so far I really like that Timothée Chalamet is playing Paul.
that moment when you were supposed to go to a pool party but it got canceled from bad weather but it didn’t even rain and you miss your friend’s hugs
Mod
That happened to me.😢
you ever get in a mood where all you wanna do is decorate for Christmas�.even though it’s almost August�
I think I’m gonna go buy some autumnal decor to celebrate pumpkin season
Mod
My family and I left our Christmas decorations up from last year. Still have our tree and stockings up. My mom told us that the tree will come down at the end of the pandemic XD
It’s still August…but it’s fine
Mod
That sounds fun. I always love the smell of pumpkin spice candles around this time. Always smells so autumnal =D
I love Christmas decorations�.I don’t know if I’d keep them up all year but I would like them up the second thanksgiving is over and they go down New Years. Last year because covid I did decorate my whole house by my self (without my family’s consent) November 1st which was fun
Mod
Ahh yeah that makes sense. Taking it all down can take a while
Mod
Taking it down is arguably harder than putting it up lol XD
IM GONNA TALK ABOUT HUNGER GAMES
I don’t appreciate the triangle of Katniss Peeta and Gale
Spoiler Alert.
I have read this trilogy many times, and each read I cannot seem to pick up on any chemistry or romantic feeling between Gale and Katniss. Like in the beginning, they have a very sibling-but-not relationship. They take care of one another but not much beyond that. SO WHEN WE START Catching Fire and Gale freaking takes Katniss by the face and kisses her im like BRUH you jealous much? you reallllllly had to do that. I would have understood if okay seeing Peeta and Katniss all lovey dovey may have upset him. BUT HE DID NOT HAVE TO KISS HER IN PUBLIC WHEN SHE L I T E R A L L Y. HAS PEOPLE COMING TO TAKE HER FOR HER VICTORY TOUR! what do you think is gonna happen Gale? of freaking coarse theres cameras, now Snow has leverage over Katniss. I honestly wouldn't really have a problem with Gale besides this. He's very protective (in a good way) he cares for Katniss and her family, he's strong and handsome, and everything else. But that scene to me just screams jealous vibes. He didn't try to kiss her before she left the first time?

I didn't much care for Gale as a "potential partner" for Katniss. I liked Peeta. I'm Team Peeta. Go Everlark! =D In my opinion, she and Gale are just too similar.
Mod
Oooh, what kind?
OH IM SO GLAD YOU ASKED!
I bought two, a pumpkin spiced one that smells exactly like Halloween and just the whole month of October (iykyk) And I bought a Aromatherapy candle with Eucalyptus which smells like how clean feels. Imagine you just washed your favorite fuzzy blanket, it’s kinda chilly outside, you just came back inside and that blanket just came out of the dryer so it’s all warm. THAT FEELING is what this candle smells like
