Brooke's Books

Hello Everyone! It's been quite a while since anyone has posted on here. Alisha and I tried to keep it going, but life happened and things got busy. Lately, I started thinking about this blog and how fun it was for everyone! We had all kinds of reviews and contests with people interacting with one another. It was a good community for those who loved to read. This is why I would like to announce that I have started up my own blog, Brooke's Books. It's not nearly as big as Alisha's website and it's just starting up, but I'm putting up a lot of the same kinds of reviews on my blog. So if any of you were missing the content on Alisha's blog, you should look up my blog here . I'll be announcing weekly releases (as I used to), book reviews, and other fun features I'm working on. I'm not sure if it will be the same as Black Nailed Reviews, but I think it will be a fun experience! I have missed writing and have missed all of you readers as well. I hope y...

The Secret

Super Song Sundays: Demi Lovato


Hey everyone! I'm back and finally starting my new feature, Super Song Sundays.
Today's feature is about my favorite singer, Demi Lovato.
More specifically, her newish album, Unbroken.
Everyone knows that Demi took a break there for a while and I almost started to forget her. But right when I heard this came out I bought it and immediately fell in love with it. The different styles of music pull together to create and awesome variety of songs.

Songs 1-4: All Night Long, Who's That Boy, You're My Only Shorty, and Together are the first four songs on the album. They are pretty much just dancing songs featuring artists Missy Elliot, Timbaland, Dev, Iyaz, and Jason Derulo. There's not a whole lot of "meaning" in the songs but they are fun to dance to.

Songs 5-14: These songs include Lightweight, Unbroken, Fix a Heart, Hold Up, Mistake, Give Your Heart a Break, Skyscraper, In Real Life, My Love is Like a Star, and For the Love of a Daughter (my personal favorite). These songs are from breakups to her more serious problems and almost all have meaning. That's what I love about this album is that everything is so serious and real to her and every song seems sincere.

My favorite song on the album- if not favorite song period- is definitely For the Love of a Daughter. I obviously don't know everything about it but it's about her dad, who she hasn't seen in a long time. It's a nice change from all the same basic songs that are out there on the radio today and it makes me think.

My least favorite would probably have to be any one of the "1-4" dance songs. Not that I don't like fun up-beat music or anything, it's just that it doesn't sound like her. It sounds like they put her voice into someone else's songs and so that's why I don't like them as much. But they definitely are fun to dance to at a party.

Overall? I love this album! Demi's music from before was nice, but it seemed to... I don't know, maybe it was too Disney. I liked it, I just didn't ever love it. Now that she's back with some meaningful, emotional, and beautifully written songs, she's now my favorite artist by far. If you don't have this album, I recommend going out and buying it because it's worth every cent.

Sweet Daydreams,
Brooke

Bookish Question: Reading Stats

How Many Books Do You Read? In a year, what is your set challenge? Do you even set a challenge? When you create an account on Goodreads every year it asks you if you want to set a "challenge" for yourself. How many books do you cant to read a year? Last year I challenged myself to read 80 books. I read 76. I think my initial intention was to read 75, but then I got cocky. The year before that I also challenged myself to read 75 books and read 76. 2011's Challenge... I dont even want to talk about it. The truth is every year I didn't have a game plan. I just read for the sake of reading. Because I love it, because I wanted to immerse myself in another person's world. This year is slightly different. I finished College, graduated, and got a part time job (finding a full time job is a pain in the butt). So I have the time. Most importantly, I have a plan.      Every week I try to read 3 books. I started this recently, since I got my part time job. With 26 weeks left ...
