The Elite | Kiera Cass

The Elite by Kiera Cass

My Rating: 5/5 Stars

What can I say, I'm a sucker for romance:)
Seriously though, I loved the first book in this trilogy, and the sequel was somehow even better. At one point my stomach knotted up because of my fear for our main character, America. Part of me wonders if it's the quarantine that is making me so emotionally responsive to words on a page, but let's just say more than a few tears have been shed over this read. I don't want to say more, especially since if you haven't read the first one I don't want to accidentally spoil it and GO READ THE FIRST ONE!

That's it, that's my review:) if you want to find out more go read it and let me know what you think!!!

    You know I am very surprised by this review. At least in my opinion, the sequel is always the least memorable. But I'm glad you liked it. I think the dear truly came from you, you just are so wrapped up in the book, you become the book (temporarily of course). Can't wait for the last review!!

A Little Life | Hanya Yanagihara

A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara My Rating: 5/5 Stars !THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS! First of all, hello. I've been gone for quite some time. I could say that is because I've been busy making friends and having fun, but in reality, I've merely stopped reading; I simply had nothing to post about. If, by chance, I did pick up a flimsy little book and force my way through it, I didn't care nearly enough to write thoughtful words about it on my blog. Yet, here I am, back in full force (I hope) which is admittedly extremely ironic considering my rebound book of choice... Ah, yes, A Little Life , infamous in the book community for being heart-wrenching. For the safety and sanity of all my readers, I am going to preface this review by saying that these warnings are completely accurate. I and a dear friend of mine picked up this book in December for the sheer thrill of tempting a book to make us cry. Was this a poor and ill-thought-out idea? Of course. Do I regret reading thi...

Breadcrumbs | Anne Ursu

Breadcrumbs | Anne Ursu My Rating: 2/5 Stars I picked up this book with the intention of it being a fast read. It was not. The story follows a young girl named Hazel, and her ongoing struggle to fit in with her fifth-grade class. Luckily, however, she has a best friend Jack who accepts Hazel, crazy fantasies and all. The novel is divided into two parts, and if I had stopped reading after the first, I would have categorized it as a middle-grade realistic fiction story about friendship. As soon as you start part two, the theme changes completely. Suddenly Jack is cursed and taken by an evil snow witch, and Hazel must traverse the dangerous and completely random magical woods that seemingly appeared next to the town's local sledding hill. This sudden jump halfway through Ursu's story was extremely unusual, not to mention unexpected. Many of the subplots from the first half, like Jack's mother's illness and Hazel's bullies, were completely dropped, never again me...

Again, but Better | Christine Riccio

Again, but Better by Christine Riccio My Rating: 5/5 Stars Alright, you already know by my rating that I love love LOVED this book! But I'll admit, I did have my doubts to start. Christine Riccio is a popular YouTuber: a BookTuber to be exact, and the group's "I read tons of books, therefore, I must be a great writer" mindset has caused a few controversies in the past, to say the least. Yet, in my opinion, Christine broke the mold. Not only did her novel take place in my favorite city, London, but it was also about a socially awkward college student studying abroad, ready to reinvent herself. As a high school senior, I learned a lot from this novel: about relationships, about career opportunities, about creating a life for yourself.  Again but Better follows the story of Shane, a young girl tired of following her overbearing parent's career path and instead escapes to a new city, a new country, to become a writer. That isn't the only thing on her mind...
