Five Reasons Friday is a brand new feature I’ve rolled out to shine a spotlight on my favorite book blogs. These are the blogs that don’t necessarily have the most followers, but continually impress me with their content. Please, do not email me asking to be featured as I don’t want to be put in the position of saying no.
This week I am featuring Allison at The Allure Of Books. This really should come as a shock to absolutely no one that I am featuring Allison. She is one of my best blogging friends and favorite people EVER.

Retro Friday Book Reviews are hosted by Angieville. Basically on Fridays you review an older or underrated book.
You guys, I kind of want to make fun of myself because I read The Host by Stephanie Meyer and actually enjoyed it. I know, I know. I am very proud of myself for keeping an open mind while reading because The Host was surprisingly good! I mean, yes there is a love triangle. And yes The Host is freakin text book huge and gets a little repetitive, but for a science fiction book, I really genuinely liked it.

Celie, however, turns to Castle Glower in her time of need.
