50 Book Challenge: #38 Bone Season

12 / 12 / 135 / 25 / 18

What kobo.com says:

A major event-the first book a seven-part series of dizzying imagination. Welcome to Scion: No Safer Place. 

It is the year 2059. Several major world cities are under the control of a security force called Scion. Paige Mahoney works in the criminal underworld of Scion London, part of a secret cell known as the Seven Seals. The work she does is unusual: scouting for information by breaking into others’ minds. Paige is a dreamwalker, a rare kind of clairvoyant, and in this world, the voyants commit treason simply by breathing.

But when Paige is captured and arrested, she encounters a power more sinister even than Scion. The voyant prison is a separate city-Oxford, erased from the map two centuries ago and now controlled by a powerful, otherworldly race. These creatures, the Rephaim, value the voyants highly-as soldiers in their army.

Paige is assigned to a Rephaite keeper, Warden, who will be in charge of her care and training. He is her master. Her natural enemy. But if she wants to regain her freedom, Paige will have to learn something of his mind and his own mysterious motives.

The Bone Season introduces a compelling heroine-a young woman learning to harness her powers in a world where everything has been taken from her. It also introduces an extraordinary young writer, with huge ambition and a teeming imagination. Samantha Shannon has created a bold new reality in this riveting debut.

What I say: This book is epic and one of my top books of the year. I love me a good young adult imagination book and this one is SPECtacular! Hoping the next 6 books in the series are just as amazing. I could barely put the book down. I loved the description and the character building and was definitely already picturing it as a full motion movie because of how well it took my imagination away. I loved the supernatural aspects of the book, the human caring elements and the slow to build romance! So for me who likes so many different things I loved loved loved this book.

We’re on Day 21 of 100 Days of Audacity And we’re We’re on Day 21 of 100 Days of Audacity

And we’re making progress!

I’m in the process of interviewing for a handful of roles after diligently applying and working my network! 

Out of 2 business ideas, my husband and I picked one that were flushing out.

We reviewed our monthly budget and made cuts in case we have to buckle down after my severance runs out.

I completed my first UGC campaign and I’ve applied to a ton more.

And I’m going to enjoy funemployment this week with my twins! 

If you need to button up your budget I’ve created a template you can grab from the link in my bio!

I loved the heck out of July! What’s something you I loved the heck out of July! What’s something you did this month that created a core memory?!?

We’re obsessed with seasonal bucket lists over here. We created a fun list this summer and have knocked off most of the items already. Just a few more for August!

Do you have a summer bucket list??

I’ve started doing co-working sessions with my wedding planner @laurs.sinclair & wedding photographer @iam.stephaniemason. They are luckily best friends and 8 years later adopting me into their friend circle which is giving me life in the friendship department! 

In the summer, for our monthly date night we send the twins to my parents for a sleepover and go golfing together! We’ve been trying out courses close to home so we can race home to our puppy and eat a lazy dinner together! 

What’s your favourite course in the west end of Ottawa? 

The epic yes day continues! We started this tradition on our twins birthday last year and did it again.

This year we had breakfast pizza, went rock climbing, ate cotton candy, Mac and Cheese, Banaba Pudding, went mini putting and had Boston Pizza for dinner! 

Everyone was exhausted and had hurting tummies! 

Follow @robynpineault for more twin mom life adventures!

Rock Climbing @altitudegym

Overheard the next morning: Next year I’m only choosing one treat so my tummy doesn’t hurt.

We eat very healthy but we want them to know what “fun” things taste like but now they understand why we don’t normally eat alllllll the treats!

Something I wish I had learned in my teens was tha Something I wish I had learned in my teens was that letters did not define my worth. 

My parents taught me to work hard, but along the way, I sought their acceptance in my grades, not just because I am. 

That took me years to unpack.
