Hey Lovelies! Elle here with a product review!!! Back in November, I subscribed to The Book(ish) Box after my friend Kat ( Life As Kat ) recommended to me when she subscribed to Owlcrate.  After looking at the website I fell in love with it because it combines my two great loves: Fashion and books! Anyway, It finally came today!!! Background: The Book(ish) Box is a monthly subscription from Appraising Pages Shop. Every month you get a shirt by the Appraising Pages Shop thats exclusive to the Book(ish) Box and 3-5 fashion, home or beauty items that are book related. The box cost 29.99 plus tax and shipping.

FREEDOM!!! SWEET FREEDOM!!!! Finally done with finals week and out of New Canada! By some miracle I have survived and live to blog another day.

It's kinda like a senior thesis. Students can do a book of poems, a collection of short stories, a novella or part of a novel. It just has to be 50,000 words or more. I decided to do part of the novel I've been working on for a couple of years now.(92,000 words long total).  This was after I had tried, and failed to write a number of short stories that would equal 50,000 (note to creative writing majors: a short stories is about 3,000 words a piece, give or take a thousand. You cannot write enough short stories to equal 50,000 in three month. Trust me.)
