What an awesome book! It took me longer than I wanted to finish it but i enjoyed it a lot! My only downfall was the character of Parzival in the book compared to the movie. It was so much more descriptive (as most books are compared to the movie) but all the extra twists and turns gave so much excitement! I’m so glad i picked up a copy! Highly, highly recommend!

I LOVED THIS SO MUCH!

It gave me all the feels, crying, happy, sad, angry, worried, ugh! I can’t express it enough. This story hit close to home in so many ways. I felt like my jr high and high school self was Molly. The way Molly felt about her crushes and thinking they didn’t like her because of how she looked, the way she felt about her friends and sister being able to have anyone they want and how she could never imagine a boy like that liking a girl like herself. It all felt so close to me of how I used to feel.

When marriage equality was legal- OMG, seriously teared up and got so many butterflies. I instantly thought of Stef and Lena from The Fosters.

The characters, relationships and friendships felt so real to me and i loved how everyone cared about each other. I did read this after finishing Simon verse but hearing simons name again and knowing that he has a bf kinda felt like i had to read this after the fact.

Becky is an absolutely phenomenal writer and after reading all her books she’s truly one of my new fav authors. I will read anything she writes and i will definitely be going out to purchase a hard copy of Upside down because I want to support Becky any ways I can!

The Upside of Unrequited gives you every reason to believe that good things happen when you least expect it.

I can’t.
Amazing, mind blowing, heart breaking, beautiful.

I can’t wait for A Reaper at the Gates coming out June 12. 2 days!!!!!! Go get your copy! This series my all time fav and I’m already excited to re-read it in the near future!

4.5 stars.

This was a beautiful and heart wrenching story. The words just grasped you and pulled on your heart strings. I felt so much for Marin. She endures a lot in her life and does her best to stay strong. I truly admired this story. The perfect book to read and the story takes you away from the very beginning. Short and sweet and everything you need.

This book was beautifully heart breaking. It immensely has a trigger for rape, trauma and substance abuse. You get into this book with such a tragic situation that you instantly just feel so much pain for Eden. She goes through such a horrific situation at such a young age and it makes her become a person she never thought she would become. It is so hard to put into words exactly how I felt reading this book other than how sad I was. Amber’s writing brings you into her characters life where you deeply care so much. I recommend this book highly and hope you all get a chance to read it.

Ummm, this book was so good! I can’t remember when I ever started an audiobook and COULD NOT stop listening to it. From 8am to 8pm, I listened to this book and I’m so so happy I chose this on overdrive today.

Triggers- bi-polar / talks of suicide


This book is full of diversity and I loved everything about it. You have a bisexual/black main character, a Jewish boy who is diagnosed with bi-polar disorder, a best friend who is a lesbian, a crush who is pansexual and a family friend/ boy crush who is half black and Korean. There is so much I can say about this story but it would be hard for me to not spoil anything so i HIGHLY encourage you to pick this up if you haven’t already. The narration was so good, you could literally feel every emotion that Suzette goes through and feel so so much for her brother Lionel.

This was such a great story and I’m so glad I read it.

This was such a raw and empowering story. BUT WHY WAS IT SO SHORT? I feel like this story could have gone on for hours and I’m sad that it ended so quickly.

I got so frustrating about how things were handled and it’s so so sad that this happens in real life. My heart truly cried. The love interest in this story was relatable to me because I was in an interracial relationship for three years so putting myself in SJ’s shoes was easy for me and I felt exactly how she did.

I’m really glad I decided to pick this up on audio and there’s just something about listening to audiobooks relating to topics of race and injustice that make you feel so many deep feelings all at the same time.

I highly recommend this book to everyone. It puts your mind in a different perspective and is a story that everyone needs to hear.
