* I got this book for review for my honest thoughts*

I will be honest I really struggled with this read. I wanted to really enjoy this book. I found this book hard to connect to the characters and it the world building was not super clear. I thought the characters were not well rounded felt like one dimesnsional characters. It was not a read the graded my attention, but i did read it fast, I just struggled to care about the characters and don't know if i will keep reading this series. I did not love her writing style.

This was def a rip from the headlines book. I also really did wind up enjoying this read. This book follows a character who mom brided, cheated and stole to get her into college. Overall I enjoyed this read. This book focused so much on self discovery. This book I feel was super realistic and really focused on Choe life. I like the structure of this book of Now and Then and also how the story explored who a villain and who is the hero in this story. This book had elements of romance but it was not the main focus. I really wanted to see more of some of the smaller characters talked about in this read. I really did enjoy Chloe as a character and thought the premise was super cool, but felt like the world was not as fleshed out as I wanted.

I can't say enough good things about this novel. This book is the prefect holiday themed contemporary read. I really thought this book was so well crafted and loved not only the structure of the book but also he time line of this book. I really grew so invested not only in the main character but also all the various members of the main character family. This family size reminded so much of my own life and it just put a smile on my face. I really also loved the various dates that occurred in this novel and just the romance gave me so many feels. I really loved this book and think you will find it to the prefect holiday themed read!

I really enjoyed this read. I felt that it had some of my favorite elements in books, small towns, small town secrets. I also really like the long term relationship that was developed in this read. I also like the characters being into photography, and loved how that structured the books. I also was invested in the romance so much. I also really liked the family elements. It was super fast pace read and it is def a solid read. I also really liked josie as a character! I also really liked Lucky as well!

I really found this book to be so charming. I really loved how this book tackled parent trap with a twist. I also really liked abby as main character. I also love camp being the setting of this book, it reminds me of my time of working at a summer camp. I also really liked how this book focused on the both new friends but also sisterhood!!! It was a book that was just fun. I really liked the friendships that developed throughout the read. It also really liked leo as main character and all the others characters we meet. I also was invested and in the "Parent trap" Mystery. I loved the one year later last chapter. Def check it out, if you loved parent trap as kid or loved the unexpected everything, get ready to meet a new friendship group!

I found this to be a super fun sequel and such a solid look in on all the characters from this world. I really loved the arc of IKO in this book, but also the take this story took. I also really loved the art style in this book. It was such a fun new adventure set in this world and put a smile on my face. Would love to see more material from this world in the future!!

I really did like this book. I thought diving into a cult and seeing how the effect the many people involved was a super compelling topic for a read. I really liked both characters point of view that we experience and saw in this read. I also really liked at the heart of this book was the realtionship between the sisters at the heart of it. I struggled a tad with the mystery at the heart of it. I also felt like other then the "years" dictating the chapters we were in, the two characters POV read so similar it was hard to make differences between them. I really did like Lo path in this novel but overall, it was not favorite read of the year. I liked that it dealt with the harder topics like cult life.

I enjoyed this book. I really loved the london setting. It was a read that def focused alot on lilly and dash and finding what they wanted in the their life. It was not a super fun read like the 1st one or even a book like all I want for christmas, but I loved seeing these characters again. I also liked that it did tackle harder issues like anxiety and depression for dash. I did like this book, but it was def not my favorite book in the series.

I thought this was a super cute read. I thought it had some great represrntion for jewish characters. I also really like the book store as set. I also really like the competition element that was as really liked the various elements of diversity in this read. My two issues where this book was a super short and sometimes hard to get emotionaly invested in the characters. I also did not feel super invested in the romance of the characters. I really did like the relationship, but it did not scream romance to me! But i would def read read more books by the author in the future.

I really wound up enjoying this read. It was another christmas tale that both developed how santa came to be but also told a story focused on a adorable little boy and his adventure with a magical little christmasaurus. I really found this book to be so charming! It just put a smile on my face. I really loved how this book had some solid disability rep but also focused on bullying and other issues that pop up for young kids, this book was all magic and i def need to read the sequel!
