Whoa, ok…so, it’s already October…and it’s been October for a few days…How did that happen?

What happened in September?

I had a challenge:

Sister was to give me some books to read…which she did. Gladly.

Did I read any of the books sister asked me to read?

Umm…no…

So, what did I actually end up reading?

Armageddon Outta Here, by Derek Landy
The Next Together, by Lauren James
The Foretelling of Georgie Spider, by Ambelin Kwaymullina

And then I just reread the Raven Cycle, suffered feels and complained about uni assignments. I think I also reread Sinner at some point…

I bought some books:

Because You’ll Never Meet Me, by Leah Thomas
Queen of Shadows, by Sarah J Maas
The Fate of Ten, by Pittacus Lore
The Wrath and the Dawn, by Renee Ahdieh

I received some books:

The Next Together, by Lauren James

I won some books:

Cloudwish, by Fiona Wood (Thanks Emily)

But that’s not all that happened in September

Sister and I made a tower of books:

It was awesome.

And to bring it down…we played Jenga with it…and we videoed it.

New seasons of Doctor Who, Scorpion and Once Upon a Time happened

I am LOVING the new season of Doctor Who…I love Peter Capaldi’s Doctor, and Missy is hilariously deranged.

As for Scorpion, I JUST CANNOT HANDLE THE FEELS RIGHT NOW! I JUST SHIP EVERYONE AND I NEED MY SHIPS TO SAIL AND IT’S NOT HAPPENING! Seriously, guys, I’m dying here.

And Once Upon a Time is back…FINALLY! After binging the entirety of seasons 3 and 4 back in July I have needed this in my life! I have seen the first episode of season 5 and *GROSS SOBBING*

So…what’s going on in October?

University is most unkindly taking up a great deal of time at the moment, so I’m not going to be posting very much, at all.

Which sucks. But, really, what can you do?

Darn priorities.

Anyways, I have some reviews that need posting, but that’s probably all you’ll see from me for a while.

Top Ten Tuesday

Hosted by The Broke and the Bookish

This Week’s Topic: Top Ten TV shows I like

1. Doctor Who
Both new and classic, this is probably my favourite show of all time.

2. Elementary
Sherlock Holmes is a recovering drug addict living in New York and helping out with the NYPD…since I love pretty much anything Sherlock Holmes related, I love this show.

3. The Simpsons
Growing up, we watched The Simpsons every single night. I’m not even kidding. Every single night at 6pm on Channel 10, usually while eating dinner, we would watch The Simpsons.

4. Charmed
Three sisters live in San Francisco and discover they are the most powerful witches of all time. I really love this show (I own all 8 seasons on dvd).

5. Buffy
I haven’t seen past season 4 yet, but we own all seasons on dvd, and I’m watching through them.

6. Merlin
I was really upset when this show ended…after only 5 seasons…with only 12-15 episodes per season.

7. Mentalist
A Sherlock Holmes-like character, Patrick Jane, works with the CBI while trying to find Red John, the guy who killed his wife and daughter. This show is hilarious.

8. Once Upon a Time
Fairy tale characters stuck in the real world. Enough said.

9. Sherlock
Modern version of the Sherlock Holmes stories. The reason it’s so far down on the list is because I still have only seen the first episode of season 3. Two years was just too long to wait, and I’ve gotten over it somewhat. That being said, I loved seasons 1 and 2.

10. Unnatural History
Henry moves in with his cousin Jasper, and they go to a school which used to be a museum and discover stuff. The catch is that Henry is used to travelling all around the uncivilised world with his parents, and therefore has little-to-no idea as to how to act appropriately, nor does he understand most teenage slang. It only lasted one season, but it was a good season. Seriously, I loved this show.
