This one came to me from Simon & Schuster, and once I started it, I didn’t want to put it down. I requested to review this one because, I too am a sleepwalker, and I loved the idea of things going so fantastically awry for Arden. Miranda wrote her suffering so well. The combo of… Continue reading The Girl From Widow Hills, Megan Miranda
Cat’s Cafe, Matt Tarpley
I became a fan of Cat’s Cafe last year when I saw the Rabbit’s Care Package comic, which reminded me of a really rough time in my life. I’ve since bought myself that comic and a plush Kiwi. When I saw Matt was releasing a book, I immediately preordered it because I knew I had… Continue reading Cat’s Cafe, Matt Tarpley
What You Wish For, Katherine Center
I think the blurb sums up this one well enough that it doesn’t need a summary from the reviewer. The school had so many fun elements and I would have loved to attend such a school when I was younger. “Joy and sorrow walk side by side.” When Duncan first showed up to the school… Continue reading What You Wish For, Katherine Center
We Were Mothers, Katie Sise
I won’t summarize this as there are a ton of reviews. I couldn’t stand Cora and the extent of control she needed to assert over her children’s lives. Normally when a person is that controlling, it’s because they’ve had a major trauma in their past. It could be from her sister’s death, I’m not sure.… Continue reading We Were Mothers, Katie Sise
The Happy Ever After Playlist, Abby Jimenez
I don't normally post two reviews in a row, but I'm a bit behind in my reviews, and I wanted to share a review of a book I loved after sharing one that I was lukewarm for. This one is already so incredibly well-reviewed that I will skip the summary. I already knew I would… Continue reading The Happy Ever After Playlist, Abby Jimenez
The Anti-Virginity Pact, Katie Wismer
I don't always share books I don't love here, but I wanted to share this one because some people might find benefit in this book even if I didn't. Two friends want to lose their virginity before college so they can have it over and done with. Only, Meredith is the daughter of a preacher,… Continue reading The Anti-Virginity Pact, Katie Wismer
Blue Ticket, Sophie Mackintosh
After her first bleed, Calla’s father drops her off in a nondescript building to receive her ticket. She doesn’t know what to expect other than she will receive a ticket as they keep people woefully ignorant. Calla’s is blue, and they send her out into the world after an unknown procedure with little more than… Continue reading Blue Ticket, Sophie Mackintosh
Everyone Knows How Much I Love You, Kyle McCarthy
Rose leads a very fictitious life. Her personality is that she doesn’t know how to hold on to something good, and she burns everything in her wake. Rose is not a likable character, but her self-destruction makes this book so good. She’s knowledgeable and college-educated, but she’s incredibly awkward, a broken and pathetic person. I… Continue reading Everyone Knows How Much I Love You, Kyle McCarthy
Thursday TBR
I haven't done a TBR in what feels like forever so I thought I should share with you what I'm currently reading and what I plan to be reading. I'm working with the new WordPress editor today, and it's not showing me image sizes, so they aren't going to be uniform. Hopefully I can get… Continue reading Thursday TBR
New Jerk in Town, Sylvie Stewart
Sometimes you just know when the person is the one, even if the timing isn’t right. Told in alternating timelines, Jill and Milo’s history started 12 years ago. They started as summer friends and left their friendship behind in anger. All these years later, Jill thinks Milo is the same jerk as before, but this… Continue reading New Jerk in Town, Sylvie Stewart
