On My Reading List for January

I have been having trouble sleeping. Well, the problem isn’t the sleeping, it’s the getting to sleep. I just made it worse by picking up reading again!

My mom and I were chatting the other day and the book Where’d You Go, Bernadette? came up. She gave a similar review to what I had read about it being witty, quirky, and hard to put down. I decided to download it on my iPad and start reading. I stayed up until 3 am two nights in a row while hiding the glow of my iPad under the covers. I couldn’t stop reading this book! There is a reason that this book is on so many blogger reading lists right now! Check it out.

Next up for me:

1. Beautiful Ruins by Jess Walter

The cover sucked me in on this one!

2. Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn

I have heard great things about Gone Girl and can’t wait to check it out!

3. Me Before You by Jojo Moyes

4. Revenge Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger

I bought this a while back and need to dive in!

Must Try App: Flipagram

New Year’s has come and gone. There were all sorts of “Best of 2013” apps and blog posts going around. One app in particular stuck out to me. Flipagram is an app where you can easily select photos from your camera roll to add to a 15 or 30 second video. The number of photos you select will dictate how quickly the photos display. As you know, Instagram videos can be up to 15 seconds and boy do those 15 seconds fly when you are trying to cram all your memories in!

Click the link below the photos for the vids or check out my Instagram page @courtneydolsen ! If you posted a Flipagram vid to Instagram, comment with your username and I will check it out! Have fun!
