This was honestly so so cute!! Gideon & Paul were both such great characters on their own but together, they were able to amplify their personalities and find a kind of peace and I loved getting to be in both of their heads as they fell in love! 🥰 Just a really wonderful, fluffy holiday romance to warm your heart ♥️

Okay so I finished this yesterday and at first, I didn’t really know how I felt about it. On one hand, it’s a very interesting story that keeps you on your toes from beginning to end but on the other hand, I couldn’t figure out what the point of any of it was. But as I’ve sat with it, I think I’ve realized that that is the point! It’s about finding a meaning in things that don’t make sense and finding a way to live and love through it all and I think that’s really beautiful! It’s about 2 people finding and loving each other through unexplainable circumstances, through space and lifetimes, and making a life together through it all! 

This book was truly nothing at all what I expected but I really enjoyed it! The end left me a little underwhelmed so I took off a half star but I was okay since I know there’s a sequel! 

This was fine lol I’ve never seen the musical but I really loved part 1 of the movie so I’ve been a little hyperfixated on the story so I wanted to read the book. While I’m glad I read this, I didn’t really love it 🤷🏻‍♀️ tbh it was pretty slow and there was a lot skimmed over yet not much was actually explained. I personally hate when stories leave a lot to interpretation, sometimes it works for me but it a rarity and it just didn’t work for me in this one! I’d much prefer a story where I’m not left with a million questions at the end 🤷🏻‍♀️ also the end just made me sad 😢 

Rich people are insane 😳 this book was honestly so good! If I had to describe it, I’d say it’s ace of spades meets ready or not meets the inheritance games! It was a little different than I expected but in a good way! Adina was such a great main character and I loved being in her head (even though it was a very wild ride)! It got a little slow in the middle so that’s why I didn’t give it the full 5 stars but I did really love it and I would very much love to see this story adapted! It would be perfect on screen! Very much recommend!! 

I loved this duology so much! Like way more than I ever expected to! I tend to shy away from fantasy books because I hard time following a lot of them but I love books like this one that aren’t so elaborate and are easy to follow! I think my favorite thing about this series was that I just really loved the characters! They were so easy to root for, while also being very flawed humans. I loved the found family aspect. I loved the pirate aspect. I loved how even though West & Fable loved each other so much and it was wonderful to see them fall in love, the story was about so much more than that! I just really really loved this and I just want more honestly! 

Y’all, this was SO good 😍 I very much bought this book for the cover when it came out and then put it off for years so it very much exceeded my expectations! Fable is such a great protagonist and the slow burn between her and West was *chefs kiss* I also really loved the world building! It wasn’t too complicated but it was still very vast and made everything really easy to picture! Cannot wait to dive into book too asap!! 

I love Damon and Maddox 😭😍 I started reading the sadenverse at the end (literally I started with FU & Can’t Say Goodbye and went from there 😅) and by the time I realized it was a whole universe, I just committed to sticking to it backwards lol so finally getting to the Fake Boyfriends series has been a long time coming and I’m so glad I’m finally here!! I already loved Maddox & Damon from the later books but getting to be in their heads when they met & fell in love was so wonderful 🥰 I do think the plot for this one was kind of all over the place and didn’t necessarily need a few of the plot points but overall, I really enjoyed it and can’t wait to get to the rest of the fake boyfriend adventures! 

I picked this one up because I needed a book with “leap” in the title for one of my book challenges and it was way cuter than I expected!! I really liked both Cara & Finn and got invested in them pretty quickly! I do wish we would’ve gotten a little more of Finn’s backstory just to get to know him a little better and I did think the acting storyline came a little bit out of nowhere lol but overall, this was a very cute and fast read! ☺️

I seriously loved this so much! It very much gave me red, white, and royal blue vibes just surrounding holiday politics instead of normal politics! It was a perfect mix of emotional and funny and it kept me enamored throughout! Honestly, the perfect read to get me back into the reading mood after a week of feeling blah about everything 💙 

This was so good!! It’s wild how easy it is to get sucked into a cult without realizing it and Joy’s journey through it is a prime example. From the outside looking in, the red flags are so obvious but I can’t imagine actually being in that position and trusting people that are knowingly hurting you. Just such a good look into her life and I’m so glad she’s able to heal and talk about her experiences now!
