This was such an interesting format for a ghost story and I really enjoyed it! It’s short while providing more than enough detail to understand the entity and what happened.

This book was a throwback directly into the 90s and it made my heart happy. With that said, I do feel the story left a lot to be desired. It felt familiar - maybe due to the pop singer theme - and it just didn’t quite do it for me. It sparked plenty of nostalgia, which I appreciate and the narration was absolutely fantastic.

I am surprised by how much I enjoyed this! I love futuristic stories and this one includes a search to find oneself and I also enjoy that. 

This book is cleverly written to keep the reader guessing about where it’s going. The dual pov is excellent and allows us to get multiple viewpoints on the situation. 

Getting DNA from trash is relatively common even now, but to use that DNA for nefarious purposes is definitely something that I could easily see happening. This book was wild. I loved it. 

This wasn’t my favorite. It had a solid premise and was executed in a way that made sense but the suspense for me wasn’t there. I thought it was super predictable to the point that it made it less than interesting. While it did allow for a bit of suspense, it wasn’t up to par with others I’ve read that are similar.

I don’t like overly emotional books. This book is full of the feels.

This is the one of the novellas in the Loathe to Love You collection that I actually enjoyed! The other two were okay or not great, but this one actually caught my attention and I enjoyed it!
lighthearted

I think this was supposed to be funny but other than the croissant thing at the beginning, I found this pretty dull.

This felt so much longer than it was. It seemed to just drag on which made the adorable love story a bit annoying.
