1. Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell

You have heard a lot about this book from us and you probably don't wanna hear more about it but we just couldn't stop ourselves from including it in our book haul. This is the first book that we read by Rainbow Rowell and it was the book that got us addicted to her writing and she hasn't once disappointed us with her books.



2. Lola and The Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins

You probably know that we have met Stephanie Perkins a few months ago. She was AMAZING. And her books are so sweet and feel-good and great that we just want to thank Stephanie for existing and making those books because seriously, what would life be without them?

3. Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

So this isn't the kind of book that we would normally read but we decided to give it a try since the synopsis was so interesting. Audrey is ashamed to say that she has only read page one and looked at the various pictures there. This doesn't have anything to do with the greatness of the book though. She merely did not have time to read them because she has been a bit busy lately and  when she isn't doing anything, she is usually sleeping because she is a lazy bum.

4. Hollow City by Ransom Riggs

So, I don' think any one of us has read this. It was actually still wrapped before we decided to unwrap it to take the picture. It has been so long and we feel super bad but, you know, schoolwork, extracurricular activities, other things...

5. Torn Away by Jennifer Brown

This is actually an ARC. Well, we mean, it's published now so it's not advanced  anymore except it still kind of  is because we got it earlier. Uhh, I think I just broke my brain. We're not gonna think about that anymore. Audrey was the one who read this book and she posted a review a while back. LINK

6. Buzz Kill by Beth Fantaskey

This is another book that has been read and reviewed by Audrey. LINK It was a light, cute, short read. It also has an adorable cover so we placed it her for nice-cover purposes. :)

7. The Power of Six by Pittacus Lore

Audrey started reading this a while back but she isn't sure if she finished it. Even if she did, she doesn't really remember what happened. Kimi and Beryl probably haven't read this either so we can't really say anything. Um, well, if you've read it, feel free to tell us what it's all about!



8. Mary Jane by Judith O'Brien

This was a gift to Audrey on her 7th birthday. She read it in one sitting. I don't think anyone can dislike this book- it's Spiderman!

So, that's all we have for today, though you guys deserve so much more. We're pretty sure evryone's noticed that we haven't been blogging a lot lately. In fact, there are some times when we haven't blogged at all. We've been really busy. Kimi, as some of you may already know, has been doing her thesis, and that's been taking up most of her time. Audrey and Beryl have been really busy since school is so much harder now and they have extracurricular activities too. That hasn't left them with much time to blog. We're really, really, really, really, really, sorry. We'll try to post more than we have recently. We can't promise that we will be posting everyday or even on a certain every week but we will be posting whenever we have the time. First priority. Promise.

Have you ever convinced someone to read a book, a series, or a whole genre? What book(s) and who was it? Did they like it?

Well, I didn't really convince someone but someone did read a book because she saw me reading it. I once brought a book to school. It was the first book of the Mysterious Benedict Society series. I was in third grade and one of my friends thought that it was nice, I guess. I didn't really know that she was reading the book until her mom told me about it. I never found out whether she liked it or not. I hope she did. - Audrey

I don't think I ever convinced someone, or I just can't remember anything right now. Maybe it's because I just started to really read books this summer, and I don't get to interact with a lot of people. I hope I would get to convince someone to read a book that I like, so we can fangirl about it. Haha. -Beryl

We were not able to contact Kimi since she is in another country and has been quite busy. We can still answer for her though since she was the one to introduce us to Rainbow Rowell and David Levithan's books. She was also the reason why we started reading more YA and widening the genres that we would read.

Interview Questions:

When did you start blogging?

We started blogging last year around September or so, but back then we had more of a personal blog, not a book blog. Geeky Chiquitas became mainly a book blog around New Year. While we were celebrating, we kinda got the idea that becoming a book blog would be great.

What is your favorite part of book blogging?

My favorite part about book blogging is meeting new friends. The book community is just awesome. We've interacted with authors bloggers and so many other bookish people all because of our book blog. They're all great and amazing and super friendly. They'll make new book bloggers feel right at home.

What type of books do you mainly blog about?

Mostly we blog about YA, specifically contemporary. We actually read anything but it's just that we've had a lot of great reads in that genre lately. Of course, there are also a lot of books from other genres that we have also enjoyed as much as we enjoyed the books from contemporary YA. Basically, we blog about any book that we happen to want to blog about. It just so happens that those books mainly come from YA contemporary.

What is your favorite book(s)?

My favorite book.. Ah that's hard! There's too many to choose from but classic favorite would really have to be the Harry Potter series. I can't seem to find any book that can top that.

What has been the best thing that has happened to you because of book blogging?

The best thing about book blogging that has happened to me.... Is that I got to interact with a lot of great and awesome authors that I wouldn't have had the chance to talk to if it weren't for book blogging. We never really thought that we would get to interact with authors. It's amazing how, now, we get to interact with them and it's all because of book blogging.
