ughh i loved this so bad and the writing was so lovely but the author did this Very Funny thing where she made me root for the characters and then immediately made them do everything to make me hate them. sam was a very sympathetic character in the flashbacks and his falling out with sadie was so sad and i just wanted them to bond!!over games!!! but no she had to have that loser rapist professor b... » Continue Reading

very nice!! i liked the controlled setting of the environment right inside the rv; felt as claustrophobic as the characters' behavior made it seem. some of red's (the mc) inner narration will not make sense until you go to the latter parts of the book though. โ โ โ โ โ stars! » Continue Reading
finally finished this book!! so very sweet, all the characters were so charming. i read the version with part one and part two aka the one with good wives. soooo devastated by beth because i've always loved her so much. and tbh i still don't see amy and laurie; i'm not even rooting for laurie and jo because i feel like they have a more sibling-like relationship but amy and laurie just seem eh. amy... » Continue Reading
same complaint as the second book, a lot of the stories & lessons are pretty much the same but even worse so here. the whole "you have to be happy for x or else their life will have been for nothing!" (as present in the ii comedian & iii the sister) moral is very tired tbh. initially that was going to be » Continue Reading
good diversity rep! the main romance was very cute. overall for a book about angels falling out the sky i thought it'd be a bit more exciting but it's a nice hopeful tale nonetheless. teacake the Being is » Continue Reading
i wanted to give this five stars SO BAD !! ๐ i loved the mystery, the puzzles, the riddles, the history — i just heavily disliked avery’s forced sexual tension with jameson & grayson ๐ญ avery being conflicted over them was so sudden and jarring in the beginning of the novel when jameson hadn’t done anything expect be shirtless, drunk and “mystery girl heiress”-like and grayson hadn’t done anythi » Continue Reading
alias anna is a novel about two jewish girls, zhanna and her sister frina, "outplaying" (quite literally) the nazis. this was very well done! it's not what i usually read, as a middle school nonfiction verse book, but it's a very clear reflection of what life was like at that time. โ โ โ โ โ stars :) » Continue Reading

i actually received this book in a raffle! the author is very sweet :) this book was about two teenagers, gemma and aiden, and the day they had together in an amusement park. this book was sweet though a lot of the character dialogue felt a bit stilted and the inner narration a little annoying. i feel like it could have gone through a bit more editing. but the ending was very sweet! overall, โ โ โ โโ... » Continue Reading
