Sophia Reads: To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han



Hello Everyone, 
A majority of the people that have read my blog are mainly my friends and family, but the few that are random viewers, hello and sorry I have been away for so long. A lot has happened in the past couple of months but instead of boring you with the details, I have decided to just start blogging again. Mainly, I want to create a series about reviewing books. Books from YA, to fiction, maybe even some non fiction depending on my mood. But the reason being is that summer is going by and fast and there are so many books out there that I have to share my opinion on. 

The book I am going to be reviewing is the YA novel, To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han. If you are looking for a perfect beach read book or a book to read on the plane, this is your book. 

Summary:
The story is about a teenage girl named Lara Jean and she lives with her father and two sisters, Margot and Kitty.  The story is about how every boy that Laura Jean has ever loved, she writes a letter to. It basically is her saying she loved them once and she is done with them. But someone sent out those letters and now the boys she was in love with are coming back into her life. 

Thoughts: 
The first thing I have to mention is that Jenny Han is probably one of my favorite YA authors ever. Now that is a big statement since I have been reading YA my whole life, but she always seems to capture the true essence of being a teenager and having these conflicted feelings that unfortunately some YA  authors cannot convey as well as she can. This is Jenny Han's second series and it is the perfect series for summer. 

The life of Laura Jean is probably how a majority of us have spent thinking about our crushes, writing down their names with hearts around it. I am in college now but I still am a romantic at heart. But the reason this story is so touching is not only does it bring you back to those days of middle school and high school crushes but it also embraces family and the true meaning of that. 
I have noticed a lot of YA novel's loose touch of family. Teenagers thrive on reading about not only love, mystery, adventure but about family and friends. It reminds them what they have or they do not have and it is comforting. The bond between Margot, Kitty, and Lara Jean is a bond that is so genuine and sweet that it makes you smile. 
Not only does this novel have a wonderful plot that makes you rooting for Lara Jean to find true love. But it also takes you, as a reader, from your busy days and just brings you into a world of family, trust and love.

Honestly, thank you Jenny Han for gracing this world with another fabulous series. Honestly, if anyone needs a book, I highly recommend you try this one out. 

I hope you are all doing well and have had a wonderful summer so far! 

Carpe Diem, 
Sophia

Beauty and Random Favorites for 2014!

Happy 2015 Everyone! I hope that the start of 2015 is going well for you all. I am super excited to be sharing my top 2014 products with you. At the end of the blog post, I will be sharing some random favorites as well. I hope you all enjoy! Face: I have two favorite foundations for 2014. The first one is a high end foundation and it is the  Tarte Amazonian Clay 12- Hour Full Coverage Foundation . I have the shade Medium-Tan Honey. This is my special occasion foundation. Since it is pretty expensive ( $38) I do not want to use it every day. My favorite part of this foundation is how much it looks like skin on your face but it looks like a more flawless version of my skin. But I personally do not like the cake face look and I like the more natural look and this foundation gives it to me. The second foundation is from the drugstore and it is the  Loreal True Match Super-Blendable Make up . I am in the shade W3. I heard about this foundation all over YouTube but ...
