Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli
2.0

Ugh. UGHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I’m officially in a weird slump where all the recent books I’ve read have just been....eh. I finished my reading challenge and re-read SOC & CK, but other than that the past 7 or so books I’ve read just haven’t really interested me. I think I’m going to just do some more re-reads until I come across a book that I’m excited about (probably Vengeful).

I'm rating this 2.5 stars. I didn’t read the first book but saw the movie, but I don’t feel attached to any of the characters in this book. It was a little boring and I was hoping for something quick that I would enjoy, but it’s been disappointing. I do enjoy the Harry Potter references, and I’ve read more books w bisexual mains this year than ever before, so I’m happy about that.

Going to re-read Vicious next before Vengeful comes out, and I’m gonna try out the ADSOM audiobooks. I’ve never listened to an audiobook I’ve already read so it’ll be a new thing! I’m excited tho. I’m going to have re-read both the SOC and ADSOM series twice this year :)
