Hi Everyone!

With school starting this week for us Australians (WHERE DID THE HOLIDAYS GO?), I thought it would be fun to share with you tips on staying organised this year!

Now, I know what you're thinking: Tyra, what makes you think you can tell us how to be organised?
Well really, I don't exactly have a 'Degree in Organisation', but I do take pride in how I remain organised and up-to-date with school work. I also know how to balance school work, extra-curricular activities and blogging.

Sooooooooooooo, here are some quick tips on how to be organised in 2015!

1. Use A Planner
My biggest organisational tool is my planner! I always say that my planner is my life.
I always believe that writing things down in a diary not only makes it easier to plan my day, but it also helps me remember things!

I haven't had a lot of time to blog unfortunately, so today I'm going to share with you some quotes from a few Young Adult books that I've read! 

Hi Everyone!
I'm back home in Melbourne after a month of travelling through Europe, so I'm ready to relax and get some hardcore blogging (and last minute studying) done before school starts in two weeks (very sad).

Today however, I will be again taking part in the weekly meme - Feature And Follow! (usually it is on a Friday but for the last couple I haven't been able to do it then oops).

Feature & Follow is a blog hop hosted by Parajunkee's View & Alison Can Read. The aim of this meme is to make new friends, gain new followers and discover new and amazing book blogs! 
(I'm never very good at explaining how it works, so instead of being confused by my explanation, please check out one of the host's posts!)

Each week there is a question that everyone a part of the blog hop must answer!

Question of the Week: Do you own any doubles of your books? What led to getting that second...or third or fourth...copy? - Suggested by A Great Read

Usually, I would only own another copy of a book for a couple of reasons:

1. Someone bought me a book I already own, but I don't want to be mean and let them know

2. There is a new book cover that is SO much better than the one I own (or it is just so cool that I must own it)

3. I didn't realise I already owned the book (I have so many books that I lose track so as stupid as this may sound, there have been times when I have almost bought a second copy of a book)

Therefore, I do own a double of some books:

1. The Harry Potter Series 

I reckon this will be a very common answer in different people's FF posts because there are so many versions of the series, all of which are beautiful! I have the two copies of the whole series, the first ones I bought being traditional (as well as the British version), the next the more modern of the two (Bloomsbury released them in about 2010 or 2011)

2. Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

This was because of Reason #3 listed above, I forgot I owned this book already!

What About You?

What books do you have extra copies of and why?

In Beacon Heights High, Nolan Hotchkiss is king. His charm, wealth and good looks are deceptively seductive, and many are the students whose lives and reputations have been ruined by it. All while Nolan continues to reign, unquestioned and undisrupted. Until now, that is.

Mackenzie, Ava, Julie, Caitlin and Parker seemingly don't have much in common. Each has their own friends, dramas and goals. But one thing they do share: they all have a deep hatred of Nolan Hotchkiss. And they all think it's about time he paid for what he's done. They come up with the perfect murder - a hypothetical murder, of course. It's all wishful thinking ... until they wake up one morning to find that their wish has come true. Nolan has been killed - in exactly the way they planned. The thing is, they didn't do it. So who did?
