Wet Don’t You (Not pictured)

Most Excited For: Not To Disappear, Matter and Don’t You.

I’ve been in love with Wet since hearing “It’s All In Vain”. I’m a bit hesitant about Panic! At The Disco, nothing will top the first album for me, I have a feeling it will be much like Fall Out Boy’s American Beauty/American Psycho for me, which I didn’t like much, but did buy. On sale. Ha.


~Movies~

I haven’t The 5th Wave yet but the movie looks really interesting, if not a bit scary. Maybe more than a bit. Oh…I just noticed Chloe Grace -Moritz is in it…great… Let’s just say I’m not a HUGE fan of her after she ruined  starred in If I Stay.


~TV~

  • All the shows come back this month! Kind of. A few are only going to have one episode, but you know, every episode counts. Every. Single. One.
  • Girl Meets World has two episodes.
  • Pretty Little Liars continues it’s sixth season!
  • iZombie has a new episode, I still need to desperately catch up on that show.
  • Degrassi premiered it’s new ‘season’/show tonight and will have the first ten episodes on Netflix in eleven days. Yay. I think…
  • THE 100 COMES BACK.
  • The Vampire Diaries and The Originals both end the month with new episodes. I’m super behind on The Originals still. Sigh.

~Everything Else~

  • I’m (more or less) participating in Bout of Books which lasts until the 10th! I haven’t made much/any progress. I’m still stuck reading the book I was on before it started. 😦 Sigh. I’m aiming to finish it tonight though and then get started on the others.
  • I’m on the blog tour for Firsts and there will be a guest post from Laurie E. Flynn, which is great.
  • There’s also Bloggiesta going on from the 16th to the 17th.

Are you looking forward to anything this month? Have you read any of these books, listened to any of these artists or watched any of these shows? If not, you must watch The 100 at the very least. 🙂

    I’m so excited for the 100 to come back!!!!! I hadn’t heard of any of the books you listed, and quite a few of them look really interesting to me so I can’t wait to check them out 🙂

    Eek! So many amazing releases and debuts. I preordered Passenger and Truthwitch and though it comes out tomorrow, I won’t be getting it until the seventh :(. I’m looking forward to reading Sword and Verse and Up to This Pointe! I actually read FIRST already and gave it 4.5/5 stars so I definitely recommend that one 🙂

    Yay for Pretty Little Liars! I’m ready. There better be some amazing stuff in the new season… YAY. THE 100! It feels like it’s been forever since the last season ended. The Vampire Diaries is back? Again? I think I’m still in season two. 😀 I have no idea how I’m going to catch up.

    Oh, and I’m excited for SO MANY OF THOSE BOOKS. I’m hoping to read Firsts, This is Where it Ends, Thicker Than Water, The Distance From A to Z, Shade Me, and Up to This Pointe this month.

    It’s such a good month for books! I can’t wait for Passenger, or This Is Where It Ends, or… Ugh, all of them! I want to see the 5th Wave too, but I feel like a better read the book first 🙂

    Oh wow. I didn’t realise that so many of the books on my to be read pile came out this month. I am already regretting this book buying ban.I’m not sure what to think of The 5th Wave film yet. I’m willing to give it a chance but I’m not overly excited.
    I see a lot of people raving about The 100 so I’m guessing it’s a good show and that I need to bump it to the top of my to watch list.

Those covers are insanely gorgeous. I had no idea Other Broken Things was coming out this month. Need that, too. Like I said, just all of 2016 YA basically, hahaha.

    I just need The 100 back, and I don’t know if I can focus on anything else until then. I don’t know how to live. I am pleasantly surprised that we have LOTS of books in common this month to pine for endlessly. I only saw like, 3 that I don’t care about on your list. Look at us, meshing our genres. “Is this friendship? I think it is!” (Please tell me you know what that quote is from! If not, ask Holly, hopefully she will 😉 )
