One of my summer goals (more to come on that later!) is to take advantage of many of the cool activities that take place in NYC during the summer. Towards the top of my list is attending one of the outdoor movie screenings in Bryant Park. I know it’s supposed to be really crowded, but I still think it would be fun to make it out there one Monday! Who wants to go with me? :)
For an outdoor movie screening, here’s what I would wear and take with me: a pretty floral dress, comfy sandals, and bright polish on my nails (summer staples), a blanket to lay on while watching the movie, and a picnic basket to hold all the yummy movie snacks. You might be wondering why I included a book on my list of things to take to an outdoor movie, but I figure that you might spend a while waiting for the movie to start so you may as well use that time to catch up on your summer reading!
Tell me: Have you been to an outdoor movie?
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!

It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.

Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
[P.S. This is an old photo that includes a HarperCollins UK title, but please note that I support the HarperCollins Union.]
