The Blog Crashers: Ely of Tea & Titles


The Blog Crashers is a blog event featuring book bloggers who crash into my blog for a day. They talk about themselves, their blog, books and more! If you're a book blogger, do sign up to the form and join in the fun!

Hi Jayvee's lovely misfit booknerds, I'm Ely from Tea & Titles. Today I'm lucky enough to be taking over Jayvee's blog to introduce myself to all of you. I'm really excited to be here, so without further ado—here's a little about me!

1.  Hi! Thank you for taking your time for the blog! Now, please introduce yourself.
  • Hi, I’m Ely! I’m very, very excited to be apart of Jayvee’s Open Blog Month event. So a little bit about me…I read almost every genre, but I especially love YA fantasy, mysteries and classics. When I’m not reading, I’m either writing my own novels or binge watching TV and drinking my weight in tea.
2. Where are you blogging from?
  • I live in Melbourne, Australia as does my co-blogger/best friend, Michelle.

3. What’s your blog’s name and what inspired your blog’s name?
  • My blog is called Tea & Titles. Michelle was actually the one to come up with the name. We both love tea, and we wanted to talk about more than just books—comics, TV, movies etc. so we thought ‘titles’ fit perfectly.

Ten Characters I Love But Others Seem To Dislike


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created and hosted by The Broke and the Bookish where, each week, a Top Ten list is posted based on a particular topic.

Hi there Misfit booknerds! It's another week for a Top Ten Tuesday post! I honestly dunno how fast the days go by. I kinda felt I just did the feature yesterday and now I'm making one again. So, for this week, the topic is ten characters you adore but others just don't seem to like. I've gone through situations like these before where I find myself loving a character so much but people are like, "But why?" I don't even know. But we'll dissect each of them here. Let's get started.

Review: Me and Earl and The Dying Girl by Jesse Andrews

Title: Me and Earl and The Dying Girl                              
Author: Jesse Andrews
Publication: March 1st 2012, Harry N. Abrams
Format: Hardbound, 295 pages             
Source: Borrowed from Eriele of This Is Not Your Book Blog                       
Order it on: Amazon | Barnes and Noble | iBooks | The Book Depository | Kobo | National Book Store / Fully Booked (PH)



SYNOPSIS:

Greg Gaines is the last master of high school espionage, able to disappear at will into any social environment. He has only one friend, Earl, and together they spend their time making movies, their own incomprehensible versions of Coppola and Herzog cult classics.

Until Greg’s mother forces him to rekindle his childhood friendship with Rachel.

Rachel has been diagnosed with leukemia—-cue extreme adolescent awkwardness—-but a parental mandate has been issued and must be obeyed. When Rachel stops treatment, Greg and Earl decide the thing to do is to make a film for her, which turns into the Worst Film Ever Made and becomes a turning point in each of their lives.

And all at once Greg must abandon invisibility and stand in the spotlight.

Review:


Death is inevitable. That is what this book's about really and of course the aggressiveness of the voice in this novel that is Greg Gaines. Me and Earl and The Dying Girl is a fascinating read.

Style Misfit: Book Covers (2nd Edition)


Hi there!!! I kinda thought that I can sustain making Style Misfit a weekly thing but I kinda had some issues last week, so forgive this lady. HAHA! I still do plan on making it a weekly habit. Anyway, I'm making up for it by posting another book covers edition with fashion collages, inspired by gorgeous book covers! Of course, I'm planning on doing something that extends more from that, so I might feature some other things and I am looking forward to experimenting on that!

Okay! Let's do it!
