Quite honestly, this was a good book. It was written very well and the plot was indeed very interesting. However, although the characters do pique the readers' interest, there was just wayyyy too many problematic scenarios that were posited by the author. I couldn't simply dismiss them off with a wave of a hand.

Always love Sleepy Hollow thingies, and this one is no exception! The foreshadowing was awesome, the tone the writer takes is almost like I'm hearing Ichabod Crane inside my head. Love that!

First romcom tbh! Although I struggled with the first few chapters, the moment that Charlie read Dev's script became the moment the story really clicked for me. The story is beautiful and it's emotional and fun and I loved it.

Wonderful. The final book is nothing short of masterful for me, and kept me engaged with each chapter that passed. As someone who has grown up watching the Resident Evil Movies, Alice has become an important figure to me. She's a badass, and she is much more than who people perceive her to be. I'm glad to be closing this journey with her.

There's... a lot to unpack with my reading of Spring Awakening. Reflective, this edition grasps the reader whole into a vat, seemingly, of social issues—because the read is filled with them. Although short as it might seem, this is a heavy book, grotesque in its fashion, slapping the reader of reality which so often eludes them. A great book, certainly, but one I still want to digest for quite a while before opening again.

This book is so sad. The tackling of the issues are still really well-done and I'm literally just so impressed. My boys deserve all the happiness.

Alice Oseman is back on it again with breaking my heart and healing it again with wholesome stuff. The tackling of the issues, in my opinion, was definitely well-done. These boys have my whole heart.

I love the interconnection and the deeper dive into Alice's backstory, but I failed to see how some other highlighted characters had been relevant. Still a good ol' book to enjoy, though!
