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

Battle of the BB Creams!

Hello everyone! Now as you all can tell, I love the Battle of the series. The reason why is because I can review a bunch of products for you all in one blog post. Since it is summer and not many of you want to wear a ton of make up, I thought I would tell you my favorite BB creams. I also want to let you know that there might not be many blog posts in the month of July. The reason is because I am in college at the moment and I am super busy. I will try to put up as many as I can but I just want to let you all know! :) I hoped you all had a wonderful June! What is a BB cream?    Now BB stands for blemish balm. A BB cream is supposed to have a moisturizer, primer, concealer, skin treatment and foundation all in one. BB creams have been all the rage for a while now but not many people talk about them anymore.   NOW LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE! Round 1: This is the  L'oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream . This BB cream was one of the first BB creams that ...

First Impression: Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match!

Hello everyone! I am super excited to be doing my first first impression blog post! Yay! Now I got this a while ago but I have not really touched it or played around with it. A first impression is basically my opinion on these products and how I think of them the first time I swatch them, use them , stuff like that. Now this is a value set from Sephora and it is the  Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match .  Now this was pretty popular among some YouTubers a while back and I really liked the products and wanted to try them and it was only $25 for 6 sample size products. Which I thought was a pretty good deal.  Packaging:  I love the packaging. I thought it stands out because of the bright colors and the interesting print on the cardboard. I also love the concept of matching you lip gloss to your nail polish. I thought it was a really fun idea for summer.  Match 1: This is the first lip product that I want to tell you all about an...

Spring Trends 2014!

Hi Everyone! Spring is finally here! I am so excited for spring because I am tired of the cold. But where I live it is still freezing.....oh spring, where are you? Anyways, I wanted to show you all my favorite Spring Trends for 2014! Even though summer is my favorite season, spring trends this years are really fun. My first favorite trend is blood orange lips! Now when I first saw this trend I got really confused because the blood orange color seems more like a summer trend. But this has been all over makeup magazines and this trend was also popular on the runway during Fashion Week. What I really like about this trend is that your whole make up look can be soft and dewy and the POW! Blood orange lips! The lips seem to make any makeup look put together. Plus it makes you stand out and then you will be a trendsetter. The next trend that I have been loving is pastels!  Pastels is always a trend during the spring time but pastels are just amazing! But this year it seems...
