This is the YA version of When Harry Met Sally. This was such a fun read. I was so hooked from page one. I adored the best friends to lovers in this book. It was done so well. I tried so hard to love these characters but it was so hard for me. They were both stupid teenagers that did stupid things. Both Bailey and Charlie are clearly traumatized and aren't doing anything healthy to help themselves. Instead, they resort to trying to sabotage their parents' relationships and making bets on their friends. It's clear that I am an adult because some of these characters actions were incredibly juvenile but then I remember that they are literally juveniles. So, I loved the romance in this, I loved how much it reminded me of one of my favorite rom-coms, but I will not read this again, as I will not be able to handle the childness a second time. 

I just love Lauren Graham. What a delightful person. This book was full of fun stories and I enjoyed every minute of it. Definitely a reread for the future. 

This was so freaking good. I loved it so much. Nimona is so cool and I loved her relationship with Blackheart. The illustrations were phenomenal. The story started as something light hearted and fun but quickly got deeper and darker and I loved it. Ugh I love it so much. Can we get a sequel please? It left on a cliffhanger. I need more!!!

This was fun! What a cute little book. I'm curious as to how the rest of this series plays out. 

Thank you to Feiwel & Friends for the ARC!

I'll be honest, I picked this book up because the title is also a Taylor Swift song. 

This one was a hard read. I did enjoy it, though. The discussions around mental illness, depression, and suicide were all so raw and real. I appreciated the honesty of these characters. I appreciated how human they are. While some of their flaws irked me, I was reminded that flaws make us human, and that includes fictional characters that are written to be as human as possible. I tried to have understanding of what these characters were going through, as there is no doubt a real person going through something similar right now. Empathy is something that comes so easily to me and I definitely felt it for these characters. All of them were so imperfect, vivid, and real. I loved watching them grow into better versions of themselves and learn to love themselves with all their flaws. What a great book, full of heart. I loved it. 

Also a reminder to please check TW's for this book. It is a heavy read. Don't take that lightly.

Wow, this one is SO CUTE!!! These characters are so funny and lovable. I had so much fun reading about them and their struggles and their successes. Gwen and Tony's relationship was so cute and tender. I love how they love. This one is fantastic and so fun PLEASE PICK IT UP!!!

Thank you Andrews McMeel Publishing for the ARC!

I really liked this one! I loved reading about the author's life and her struggles. I have never had struggles like this with my body but reading about it is important. Learning about other people's experiences makes us more empathetic people, which is so needed in today's world. I really appreciated the authors vulnerability and openness. That is truly a gift. What a great book! I also adore the illustrations! Talent oozes from this book for sure. 

Thank you Little, Brown Books for the ARC!

This is really, really cute. I am such a sucker for YA romance. And this one had me giggling and kicking my feet. I loved the characters, I loved the setting, I loved all of it. I also really loved that the whole book takes place during one day. I really love how the romance develops. This is such a fun, lighthearted romance and I loved it! 

(Also there were a few typos in this one, which I'm sure will be fixed before it gets published. That was one of the only things that bugged me. Other than that, it was good.)

The use of numbers instead of words threw me for a loop, but other than that, I loved this poetry collection. Tupac is so talented. I was truly touched by his words.

Fantastic, brilliant, wonderful, beautiful, amazing, show-stopping. No notes. We should ALL be feminists. Period.
