📖All the Ways You Break Me
So happy to have read this book. I loved how the back and forth between the present day and the past between Josie and Ian was done. It really helped establish a lot of the background between them. And it was all a nice slow progression in the story like 2 stories happening at the… Read more

💕Heartsick by Kristina Forest
At first I thought this would have been a standard YA with two teens, Margot and Isaac, trying to heal after breaking up with each other. The beginning pretty much reads like that till you get to Chapter 5, so if it seems a little slow to you, trust me. You want to keep reading.… Read more

📖Duke by Jessica Peterson
First off, can I just say how I love the consistency of the new covers for this series? Not that I’m complaining about the old ones. I love those too. But, now that there are the SE versions out, I guess they need consistency. (Any way we can have both covers? No? Ignore me😂) Duke… Read more

🎧Love Me, Stalk Me review
Never have I loved an audiobook so much as this one. At first, I thought it might turn out to be dark romance, but no. Not in the usual sense.

The Cuffing Game
When I started reading this, I almost had flashbacks to Alice Chen’s Reality Check. This is definitely not like that book. While Alice has to go on a reality show to earn money for her family, The Cuffing Game is the brain child of Mia Yoon, a freshman in film school, and Noah Jang, a… Read more

✨Never Seen the Stars✨
This was a little hard to read in the fact that you have Hattie, a teenager going through life in high school while mourning the loss of a close friend. On top of that, she discovers she has the same degenerative condition as her dad and everything feels like it’s falling apart. This felt really… Read more
