The Books & the Art {5}

The Books & the Art is where I feature whatever artsy stuff that books inspire me to make, and at the moment that consists of storyboards, bookmarks, and wallpapers.

Another Sarah Dessen book, another new love. As if it could have gone otherwise.

The Book: Along for the Ride by Sarah Dessen

The Art: Storyboard

A Quote: 

"So you don't want me to take you," he said.

"No," I replied. "But I'll meet you there."

Particulars: Diners (the good and the bad kind); a beautiful baby girl; the beach; bikes, and more bikes; all the girly stuff!; coffee by the gallons; accounting by a high school graduate; hotdogs; a laundromat with a secret.

I was enjoying this book so much that I didn't even stop to take notes for a review, so until I re-read it, this post will have to be enough proof of my love for it. Aaaand I am now opening the poll for which Dessen book I should read next! (I've read Just Listen, btw.) Vote in the comments ;D

I am so excited to meet this certain author in just a few hours that I just had to wallpaper my favorite book of hers.

The Books & the Art {2}

The Books & the Art is the new name of the feature I introduced last week, Artsy Librarian, but I didn't know that Jana of That Artsy Reader Girl has a feature which uses that almost exact same title so I decided to change mine to avoid confusion. Sorry again for that, Jana! :D

This week's wallpaper is one of the many that I loved from this certain book. If I were one to highlight my books, I would've highlighted every page in this one.

Artsy Librarian is a new-ish feature of mine because it is a mixture of Storyboard and Mark That Book! plus whatever artsy, bookish stuff I manage to think of in the future. But for now, my latest foray into the 'arts' is a wallpaper! I dug through some of the quotes I wrote down last year onto my handy dandy notebook and found one that I just love.
