Bout of Books 11.0: Create A Sentence Challenge!

So as you may know, I am participating in Bout of Books 11.0 (Click here for details!). Throughout the week they have little challenges just to have fun to break up your reading time. 

Today's challenge is to create a sentence using the first two words that appear in a handful of books your choosing. I set out to pick books that I really enjoyed, then rearranged them to make sense. It's a weird sentence, but that's okay! I like it.


The picture shows the books I chose and the order they appear in the sentence.

 Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell. The One by Kiera Cass. Mortal Danger by Ann Aguirre. Champion by Marie Lu. Cress by Marissa Meyer.
(Find my sentence under the picture!)

Cute, right?


And my brilliant sentence isssssssssssss...

"There was this time I was out of her satellite." 

Awesome, right?

Comment below with your own sentence or a link to your blog so I can check out the choices you made! :)

Hey, look! It's Kevin!

Two books I received as gifts!!
Hey everybody!

I know, I know, you're probably thinking "This kid's alive!?" Well, yes, I am!

It's been a wild ride, this semester. I know I have been in hiatus, but this hiatus is officially over! I plan on writing this blog like never before! (Which means, I'll be posting regularly, and I'll be doing Road Trip Wednesdays, as well as book reviews and what not!)

I do want to apologize for being gone for so long. I went through a lot of personal things in the past six or seven months.

But on the bright side, here are some good highlights!

  1. I graduated from SIUC! College is done!
  2. I am moving to California in four days!
  3. I attended my first writer's retreat! (Four friends eating brunch while writing counts, right?)
  4. I started a tumblr! (click if you want to check it out)
  5. I was Senior Co-Editor of the lit magazine at my school!
  6. I got a short story and a poem published!
  7. I won the CURCA award at my school for my short story!
  8. Did I mention I graduated?
  9. And I'm sure something else I can't remember as of right now.
Those are some highlights of what I haven't been writing about, but no more! My adventures in California and trying to get published will be documented here for you all to read.

I will stop rambling now!

Happy to be back everybody!
