clap when you land review

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about clap when you land by Elizabeth Acevedo. i gave this book 5/5 stars. i am honestly not surprised that i loved this book, since i’ve loved all the books she wrote. so, this was just so amazing to read right now.

if you follow me whatsoever, you know that i do not read poetry whatsoever. i do have to read some for school, so there’s that, but i do read books in verse here and there. but, never like straight up poetry whenever i want to. but, i feel like this book was the perfect amount of poetry, but also a novel. i also heard a ton of people say that this book was pretty much just poetry, but i honestly didn’t find it just be poetry. like there was that whole rhyme effect, but there was also like she just wrote the novel and then put them in the stanza. if that makes any sense.

one thing that i didn’t understand at all though, was how nobody knew that he had another family in the DR. i mean, wouldn’t it be kinda hard for the father to hid it from everyone? i mean, i just don’t understand how you can hid it like that. and there are multiple parts of the book where Camino says something along the line of, “oh he pays 10K for my school, but then he also pays for our house, which is the nicest one on our block.” and i don’t understand how the mom and Yaya just don’t see at least 20K just leaving their bank account in small amounts. like i know if this was my dad doing it, my mom would be all over it and know what he’s doing.

but, on the other hand, i don’t like how they always praise the dad, i mean they might just do that cause he’s dead. but, still, i think he was just such a shitty person, and they always just forgive him. for example, he had a whole second family, gaslit Yaya, and then didn’t provide for Camino like a father should have. and they just completely didn’t talk about it, and just let it slide. and then they would say “oh he was complex.”

on a sadder part of the book, i really enjoyed the fact that this is a real flight. since it did get forgot about since it got didn’t get the coverage of the media since it happened by 9/11 and school shootings. so, i think that’s really sad, but i feel like this book covered so much. and i really think that this was so amazing, and it really shown so much about how hard it is, but also it told us so much.

this book honestly had the best portray of grief. i mean, we got both girls, dealing with their fathers death. it was so amazing to know that they are dealing with it all, since they both have different things they need to worry about. and i honestly think it was just so amazing to see this. this book honestly showed that with someone dying will change your life, for the good or also the bad.

but, the sisters where so amazing and added to the story so much. i mean, we got to see them both deal with their father dying, but also how drastically different their lives are. and since both sisters got told the same amount of the story, it just added so much to the story.

also, i think it was so amazing that the one sister was lesbian. and i feel like it added so much to the story, and that we got so much insight to the story. i mean, it was just so great to read about her being lesbian and deal with the hardness of it all was. and i honestly really liked the whole fact that this wasn’t so much of “oh well we have the most diverse story. we have a Black, Dominican Republic, and also a lesbian character!” it honestly just told the story so much, and i honestly loved that she was lesbian, and it honestly helped the story so much, since it wasn’t just like a plot point.

but, i honestly loved Yaya and Camino together. i think that it was just so amazing to see them together and then working together on grieving the death of their father. and i honestly think that it was just so amazing that they got to be together and i feel like it added so much to the story.

there also is a scene though where Camino almost gets raped. i heard a couple people say that this triggered them, so i’m going to tell you what happens, so it might help to prepare yourself. basically, Camino goes down the the ocean, where this guy is that was getting paid off by her dad, comes up to her and tries to rape her. since, Yaya and her aunt, and Yaya’s mom saves the day.

Camino– i feel like we never really learnt to much about her. i mean, we did get a little bit about her, but nothing to like personal like we did of Yaya. but, i honestly think that this character was so fleshed out, and she literally had so many amazing goals and honestly was so kick ass.

Yaya– she was honestly such an amazing character. i do feel like how kick ass she was, and how much she loved her girlfriend and whatnot. and i feel like she was so amazing and that she really knew what she wanted and whatnot.

trigger warning– rape, grief, plane crash, death, parental abandonment.

anyway, that’s all for today. i honestly really loved this book, even though there was some issues with it. i honestly love the writing of the author, and everything in this book honestly so so amazing, and i loved the authors writing. i also loved this book on how it was in verse, so i might just try to read more.

royal holiday review

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about royal holiday by Jasmine Guillory. i gave this book 3/5 stars. this was a pretty bad book, i mean there wasn’t that much romance, and i feel like it was just a boring book all together.

this isn’t really a problem, it’s just something that i noticed while i was listening to this, but i found it was kinda weird, how they never said the love intrests name. i lterally had no clue what his name was, till the middle of the book, since they never said it. and it was pretty annoying. but, they also called him chocolate a lot, so if you look at any of my notes, (which you won’t,) but i literally just called him chocolate, since i had no clue what his name was.

i do feel like this book was weird to read, since it did have a good portion of romance in it, but it was never like a real romance. like when they where in london together, it was really just like brushed over in the romance plot. since, i’ve read all of her other books, besides her first one, and most of the books have a lot of sex and some kissing. which, is something that i like a lot in books. but, in this we literally do not get any romance besides saying “oh yeah they have sex” and then also “they kissed on the sofa.” and it was just so annoying cause there is literally no romance whatsoever, it was more of a lust.

and i’m not one of the people that knows about chemistry books, but i do know a far amount of what i do see in the books. and i have read more books with chemistry, and this book literally has none. like for the whole romance, i feel like Malcolm and Vivian didn’t have any real feelings, and believe me i know that i’m really looking into this book, but to me i just got a lot of lust feeling, and that they only reason why they where together for the whole rebound kinda thing.

and i do feel like everything was very PG-13, but i kinda think that it might have been best. since, in the wedding party, Vivian was a motherly figure, and everyone looked up to her. so, i mean i’m kinda thankful, but i do wish we got a little something, since it was fade to black.

also, there is a lot of pity that i felt was going around, since like every five pages we get told again and again that Vivian never went on a vacation for a hot second. and i think that it was kinda annoying, since we just got this over and over again, and whenever we where talking about london, we got told “oh yeah Vivian hasn’t been on a trip since Maddie was a baby.” and i think that it was just so annoying, since we knew it over and over again.

i also feel like a lot of things where rushed in the book. i did look up all the page lengths on goodreads, and this book was a lot shorter then the other books. which, i totally could see when i was reading this book. and i wouldn’t really care about the series length, but it was very noticeable in my mind, since i was just rushed.

this book was also to be about Christmas, and it wasn’t like that much in the book. like we did get some, and there was some talk about the Christmas tree and whatnot, but i do feel like it still wasn’t enough to make me in the Christmas spirit. and it was just like so not that much of the actually festive of Christmas.

Vivian- i honestly don’t really care about her. i mean i think that she was just kinda annoying when she was just so like “oh i just want to do nothing, but i also need a vacation because i work in therapy.” but, i also thought it was kinda cool to see her be a therapist and work with patients.

Malcolm- he was honestly such a boring person and character. like he literally just like sat around and talk about London and the Queen over and over again. i mean, i think that the whole character was very vanilla and such a boring character in the book.

anyway, that’s it for today! i had a fun time reading this book, even though i didn’t really like it that much. but, it was kinda cool to read this book with the royal family, but i do think that i wish there was more, and then it did have. and it was still kinda fade to black, which i didn’t enjoy it that much.

lola and the boy next door review

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about lola and the boy next door by Stephanie Perkins. i gave this book 3/5 stars. this was a reread, and i honestly didn’t really like this book. i mean Lola was just so annoying, which i’ll get into.

my favorite part of this book was how Anna and St. Claire was in here. i mean, they where just so cute in the first book, and then it just got better in this book. and i honestly thought that we got to see them as a couple, and them just interacting. and, they just where so amazing, and they just acted like the cutest couple, which was so cute.

i honestly hated how Lola and her boyfriend’s age gap. i mean we got the whole age gap, and Lola was like 16-17 and then the boyfriend was like 22-25. and honestly this was so annoying, since she is a minor, and she’s just with this adult, and this was just so annoying, and it was really creepy. and honestly the boyfriend was just so bad, and he was just so rude anyway.

also, the dad was like “you need to call us every hour, and if you don’t their will be consequences.” and Lola like hated them for that, when it was completely normal. i mean, if my daughter was with a guy that much older then her, i would do the same thing. i feel like it was completely normal for parents to do.

but, i honestly hate how the gay dad’s where talking about. i mean they where talked about like these gay dads that like bright colors and tea and own a pie shop. and it was so annoying, cause they where those characters in those Netflix series that are just gay so you can say that there are gay characters and diversity.

also, i just wanted to talk about this, since it annoyed me. but, it really annoyed me that Lola was like, i’m depressed cause of the break up. and i mean, yeah that sucks that you guys broke up, but you guys aren’t depressed. that’s honestly why i hate books when they use depressed as a plot point, or just used that term so lightly.

it also was kinda annoying on how much Lola was up Cricket’s ass. and i mean i think that’s so annoying. since, it is so annoying cause Lola was always like “omg we need to talk to Cricket or if Cricket will like it.” and it just got so annoying since we literally never care about it, and it was so bad since she was like in love with him for years, but it wasn’t like it.

another weird plot point, if you can call it that, was like the figure staking. i mean, we got it told to us like 50 times, but then they just like never talked about it, till the very end. and it was kinda annoying, because we where supposed to hate the sister, then it was like in a blind of on eye, oh she’s amazing.

this isn’t like a big point of the book, but it just annoyed me when i was listening to this. but, i think it was kinda annoying on how Lola went on and on about how cold it is in San Francisco. and i just goggled it, and it says it only get like 58 degrees Fahrenheit. which, is literally like shorts and a light jacket, so it’s not that cold. when Chicago gets to -10 degrees in December at some times.

Lola- oh my god, this character was so annoying. she just always was trying to go over the top on literally every single thing that she does, and she also doesn’t know how to take a hint whatsoever. and i feel like she would have one of those high pitched annoying voices that most of the youtubers have. so, honestly she was just so annoying and there’s more that i’m not gonna talk about, cause i really don’t care to talk about it for a while.

Cricket- he was honestly an okay character. i mean, he wasn’t the best character in a YA romance i read, since it was kinda not there a lot. but, i still think that he was a good choice for Lola to fall in love with, since he was so chill and wasn’t annoying like her by any means.

anyway, that is it for today. i didn’t really like this book that much, since it was just kinda boring, and it was just kinda a hot mess. but, i still didn’t hate this book, but it was kinda of a good read. i’ll probably will read the last book in the series, since i already got this far, and it’s not a direct sequel.

crave review

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about crave by Tracy Wolff. i gave this book 1/5 stars. this book honestly got so much hype, and i thought i was going to love it so much, but i hated it with a solid passion.

the biggest issue with this vampire book, was how similar it was to twilight. i honestly feel like this whole book was the biggest rip off of twilight. i mean, i think that a lot of crap happened in this book, and like you can pin point how that happened and when it happened with twilight, and they did try to change some things, but they where still the same. (ex- snowball fight instead of baseball and a stupid love triangle.)

with that, this had all the cringey tropes that happened in all paranormal and romance books from 2005-2012. and it was just so weird, and it wasn’t as cute as everyone seems to think it is. and when i said all the cringey tropes that had in those books, i mean every single trope was put in a blender, and mixed together, and not even in a good way.

also, literally nothing made any sense. literally nothing made sense. everything was just blended together and thrown in the pages, and nothing made sense. for me, i feel like we got all these plot points brought up, and compiled together, but they didn’t go anywhere. like there was a good solid 10 different things that were brought up, but they just like got thrown aside.

and it was also so annoying, since the cover was so similar to twilight. we got the same boring characters, and then the covers where exactly the same, so they weren’t even trying to hide it. and it was also the cringey twilight jokes, and all that i could think about was Rob making fun of twilight when i was reading it.

okay, but can we talk about the whole plot about i’m not like other girls, which annoyed the hell out of me. and it happened a shit ton, and it got so annoying. since, literally Grace was like “omg i’m not like the girls here, since i am from California.” and then she literally acted like a big baby and that she is so special, when she wasn’t whatsoever. but, she is also not like other girls cause she is human.

there was also some stupid love triangle. like i hate love triangles with a passion, but some of them are wrote well, but this one was so shitty. like it was a love triangle, but it wasn’t even wrote well. like Grace was pretty much only with the other guy, since it made Jaxson so mad. which, was just so annoying, since all it did was make everyone get in arguments.

one of the only good things in this book, was how it had these cool chapter titles. but, i thought it was cool, but then it just got annoying, since it was really forced, and it was just getting old. and half of them didn’t even mean anything to the story. so, it was honestly just a waste of ink and then it was like she needs to hit a certain word count like an essay, so she just added random crap.

also, let’s talk about the banner between all the characters. literally, it was just so cringey and it was just so weird. i mean, it just tired so hard to like it, but she was just trying to write like a teenager, but it just wasn’t like how a teenager will talk/type. and the banner wasn’t even that good, and it was so bad.

spoiler- this was honestly so annoying Grace was literally such an idiot. like it was supposed to be this whole plot point about how nobody is human besides Grace, but literally everyone knew that nobody was human, since it got brought up 50 million times, and they almost said it like 10 times. but, then we got Grace’s good old reaction and it was like “OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!” and it was so insane that she couldn’t put two and two together.

Grace- we all know in books that i HATE bad and stupid characters and Grace was literally such an idiot. like, honestly she was the worst version of bella swan, and all that she did was act like a complete idiot. she literally annoyed the hell out of me, and it just was that Grace was such an dumbass.

Jaxson– literally, the author tried to make him this sexy vampire dude, but it didn’t come of as that. i thought that he was just trying to be this creepy guy, who is like in love with Grace, but it was like really weird.

anyway, that’s all for today! i really hated this book and i think that this book was just so weird, and it was just so bad and annoying. and it honestly was just so bad, and honestly, this book was just the worst plot, since it always changed.

10 things i hate in books

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about the 10 things i hate in books. honestly, i’m kinda excited for this post, since i think that i hate a lot in some books. and i think it would be kinda fun to talk about it all.

1. STUPID CHARACTERS

okay, i don’t mean like a child, or someone with a mental deficiency, it’s just a purely stupid character. it mostly happens in mystery and thriller books, when the characters can’t put two and two things together when something major happens and they just don’t make let it all click together, when a three year old can piece it together.

2. PARENTS THAT ARE MIA FOR THE WHOLE STORY

with this, i don’t mean books like Anna and the French Kiss where she goes to Paris for school, i mean like in twilight when Charlie is MIA for the whole story. it honestly annoys me, since like, it just makes me feel like the author was lazy, and it doesn’t add plot to the story, it just is lazy. and anyway, wouldn’t you have at least one grandparent or uncle or aunt? i mean it literally does not make sense to me.

3. ADULTS WRITING ‘LOL’ AND ‘OMG’ AND A LOT OF POP CULTURE REFERENCES

this honestly annoyed the hell out of me. and it annoys me more when it is someone like middle aged, and how it they just throw around LOL and OMG and also the good old classic ones that are just made up abbreviated words, that teenagers don’t actually use. it is so annoying for me to read, since it does not make sense whatsoever. and also the good pop culture as the books where they talk about how everyone thinks everyone loves shows like Riverdale and Stranger Things.

4. THE GOOD OLD PARTS OF THE BOOKS WHERE THEY TALK ABOUT HARRY POTTER 24/7

we all know how much i hate harry potter, but i can talk a lot of the references in books. but, when we get the harry potter ones every five minutes, it is so annoying. and in every contemporary book that i own, and also in pretty much every series, there is probably at least one harry potter reference. which is like super annoying for any reader.

5. MULTIPLE POVS

everyone has totally different opinions about this, but i personally hate it so much. i feel like having to jump between multiple different characters takes so much away from the story. in my mind, i feel like it takes time just to learn about your main voice in a one POV story, so when you need to learn other voices too, damn it gets so hard to learn and understand the main voice.

6. BOOKS THAT JUST END, LIKE LITERALLY JUST END WITH NO INFO WHATSOEVER

this sounds awfully like a cliff hanger thing, but like me tell you, it is not. i greatly enjoy cliff hangers in series, but not when it’s a single book, and you get all this info about their life and your really invested in this story, and then it’s just like “Finn and Rachel looked at each other at the same time and said it was the him.” okay, that wasn’t the best example, but you get the point. and i honestly feel like this happens more in thrillers and mystery books, then it does in romance, but i still feel like it does happen in romance.

7. BOOKS THAT SPAN SOMEONE’S WHOLE LIFE

to me, i think that this is super annoying, cause i’m one of those people that only like the meat of the story, which i don’t think it a bad thing. for this, i mean books like books like Evenly Hugo where kind of annoying, since we got literally everything about her life, i mean the writing was really amazing, so. but, i honestly don’t really like books that follow someone’s whole life, cause nobodies life is honestly that interesting.

8. BOOKS WHEN YOU GET THE BACKSTORY 20 MILLION TIMES

this topic can go two of one ways. since in some books the whole back story reiterated 50 times is really annoying, and it does literally nothing to the story, or it can be very beneficial, especially if the book is about mental health or someone in their life dies. but, for the most part, it isn’t beneficial, or in beach read by Emily Henry when we get told that so and so died over and over again.

9. CHEATING

i feel like this is pretty basic topic, and everyone loves to hate this topic. but, i still hate it with a passion, so i just put it on this list. i feel like this topic is such a shitty thing in books, but also in real life. and i think that this is really touchy subject, and like i feel like it just is so crappy, especially if they are married.

10. LOVE TRIANGLES

personally, the person that created love triangles, i just want to ask them why. like what is the real point of creating this trope, since it serves no purpose. but, i do think if it wrote good, aka not like twilight, i might enjoy it. but, most of them i do hate, since someone is always jealous and someone always prefers someone over the other person. so, to me i honestly think that the whole thing is always written bad.

anyway, that’s it for today! i honestly could make another list, for more things that hate in books, i probably will make a blog post about thing that i love in books, since i did make this post.

party of two review

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about party of two by Jasmine Guillory. i gave this book 4/5 stars. honestly, i really enjoyed this book, and i thought that it was just so cute, and it was so amazing, even though the ending was kinda a hot mess, i still thought it was so cute.

personally, i really like books with celebrities. i haven’t read many, but i still greatly enjoy them a ton, since it’s completely different from my life, so i honestly think it’s kinda cool. and in this book, Max, the love interest, is a Senator i believe. so, he obviously has some type of celebrity status. and, i’ve also never read a book with a Senator as the love interest, which is kinda cool.

another fun fact about me, but least bookish, i love to bake. i’m also tempted to go into it as a career. but, one of the main points of this book, is how much Max and Olivia love dessert, and that’s actually how they met, Olivia hating the dessert menu. which, honestly is just so cute, and i loved that whole plot point so much. and i honestly loved it, since it did play more of a role in the story later, which was just so cute.

i also thought that it was so cool about how their romance wasn’t like you basic, everyone knows about how much you guys are in love. it was a secretive romance, but like it was still so adorable, and i really love how they acted together. and like it wasn’t a slow burn romance, but it did take a little while for them to actually kiss, from what i remember, but it was still so cute, when they actually got together.

i also thought it was kinda weird that when they texted, they texted in literal paragraphs. and for your average person, it probably won’t matter to you. but, as someone how literally sends 10 small texts, it got kinda annoying. but, to teach it’s own, everyone has their different preference.

to me, it was actually cool to see that Olivia is a lawyer and that she was opening up her own business. it was just pretty cool, since in romance books they always have girls that own flower shops and it’s so easy for them to bring their business off the ground. when, in this book deals with the hard reality about how hard it is to deal with getting a job off the ground.

and i always think that these books have some of the most realistic struggles in these books. i feel like it shows real struggles about how hard it actually is. it’s hard to move across the country and then try to start up a business. i really love how it shows the harsh realty.

but, i don’t know if i just didn’t pick up on it, i didn’t pick up on any other characters from other books. i might just not remember them correctly, but the other ones have a ton of the other character, but this one didn’t. it was still so cool that Olivia was one of the sisters, but i do wish we got more of the sister.

Olivia- she was honestly such a kick ass character. i mean all she did was grow something off the ground and never gave up. it was honestly so amazing. and it was so amazing that all she did was take risks. and she was also so independent, and it was so amazing, and i loved her so much.

Max- he was such a charming and brilliant and intelligent character. she was such a character that was also so smart and charming, but also so sweet and romantic at the same time. he was just so sweet and a i loved it. i mean he cared for Olivia, and also cared for his job so much.

anyway, that’s it for today. this book was so amazing, and i loved the topics that where talked about. and i honestly loved this book, and really everything that Jasmine Guillory writes i love so much, honestly. but, i honestly can’t wait to read more of her.

bring me back review

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about bring me back by BA Paris. i gave this book 2/5 stars. look, i’m going to be completely honest, i had no clue what this book was about when i was going into it. but, i only picked this book up, since i read  behind closed doors and loved it so much, but this one was obviously different.

my biggest issue with this book was how the storyteller, Finn, was dating and almost engaged to this girl, Layla, who got kidnapped. but, then Finn meets Layla’s sister, and then falls in love with her, and they are going to be married. which, is just weird as hell. okay, like image if your fiancee died, and you where like ‘i love you so much, and i’ll miss you deeply, so i’m going to marry your sister.’ and that whole plot was just so weird, and i hated it so much.

another thing that was really annoying was how much of a dick Finn was. like he was literally so abusive, more mentally then physical abuse. and he was also had so much of anger management issues with this book. and, i personally don’t really mind reading about books with mental illness as a main plot, but the whole anger management was not brought up whatsoever. which really annoyed me.

but, behind closed doors was such a hard hitting book, and it dealt with harder topics, and it wasn’t comical whatsoever. but, i honestly feel like this book had a couple funny moments. and i don’t think it was supposed to be, it was just the fact that it was so cheesy and has so many basic plot point.

and i’m going to be completely honest, the dog was the only character that i cared about. and like i’m not being mean, she was honestly so unproblematic, and wasn’t dumber then a box of rocks.

also in this book, they literally ate out like every day, and sometimes even twice a day. which is honestly insane, granted i’m not British, so i don’t know if that’s normal, but i don’t think it is. i only eat out like once a week, but it’s always like it’s takeout, i don’t dine in for obvious reasons. and i only do it since i like to support small restaurants. but, they literally eat in, everyday. i don’t know how they have so much money.

with the whole talk about money, i don’t understand how Ellen didn’t know about Finn’s other house. i mean, wouldn’t they have to make payments every month for their mortgage or just for upkeep of the house, but wouldn’t it also be brought up in the case? that honestly just didn’t make that much sense to me.

spoiler- honestly, the ending of this book was insane. like my biggest complaint was how Finn literally didn’t know that Ellen and Layla where the same person. like honestly, i get that the big things got changed, like the hair and the eye color, but wouldn’t Layla have a birthmark or a bump, that she couldn’t get rid of, that Ellen also has? like it might just water down to how much of a moron Finn is, but that whole hot mess.

spoiler again- with what i already said, and how the girls are the same person. i wish we got more of an explanation of them being the same person, from Finn’s perspective, and like everything that happened. but, like it very well have happened, and i just completely forgot about it.

Finn- look, i’ve read a lot of books with idiot characters, but hot damn, this character is a compete moron. i mean, he did so many things, and it was ‘omg you are a literal dumbass.’ and like i’m not the smartest person in the world, but like i could figure somethings out, and it didn’t take a genius.

anyway, that it all for today. this was honestly a pretty shitty book, which i wasn’t that happy with. but, i still greatly enjoyed this book. since it was just so weird and stupid. i probably won’t read any of the author’s books, since this one kinda ruined it for me.

never never review

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about never never by Colleen Hoover and Tarryn Fisher. i gave this book 2/5 stars. honestly, this book was so bad, and it just didn’t have that much of a plot, since it was just a bunch of random plot points here and there. and nothing honestly made sense.

to me, there was a lot of different plot points about things that don’t really make sense, or just a bunch of different things. so, i honestly think that we got the whole ‘oh they don’t remember anything’ and also ‘wait wait the hell is going on.’ and they didn’t even go hand in hand, like i thought it would. it was literally things that just so random.

okay, one of the main things that was happening in this book, was how this book had major wattpad vibes. i mean, not like in the physically form, not like a book that you can hold, the ones that are still on the internet that are still being wrote. i mean everything was so hectic, and it was completely like it. and it honestly was the books that i would read when i was in like 6th grade and also what i would write in 6th grade thinking i was going to be the next Stephanie Meyer.

okay, so when i heard about this book, i was like ‘omg this book sounds so cool and cute.’ but, when i actually read it, it was honestly a shit show. like a big old shit show. i mean, i think it was insane about how a thing can go from being cute, to being a dog damn hot mess.

but, i do think that Charlie and Salias where so annoying. i mean, i think that they think that we know everything about how they did something in their past or how something happened, or what they look like and all the drama and tattoos. i think it was kinda crazy, since we don’t honestly know shit, and they know more.

okay, so i honestly have no clue what happened in this book. this book was literally a good solid 150 pages, and then when i was reading, and then reading goodreads reviews, i have no clue what i read. so, the main thing that was happening that was told about Charlie’s mom. someone said that she got beat by her, and then someone said that didn’t happen, but she just neglected her when she was a baby, so i honestly have no idea what happened in this book.

Charlie- she was not a well developed character whatsoever. she literally was complained about everything, and also her mother. but, her whole personality is just, my mom is mean, and also i have no money. so, it is so annoying.

Salias- honestly, in a different book, he was such a sweet character. but, in this book, he honestly looks like a baby and obsessed with Charlie. and i think if he was in your adult romance, i would honestly love his character so much.

anyway, i hope you enjoy this review. this was a pretty bad book. and i really think that this was a book of nothing, since we didn’t even get the full plot of the story. to me, they should have just added the whole series into one book. but, honestly this book is insane, and literally had like no plot.

August new books

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about all the books that are coming out in August. some of them i have arcs for, and hopefully i will read all of them at least before the end of August.

entwined by RJ Rosen. this book comes out August 28th. this book is a fantasy romance novel. this is all about a teenage girl, who is going to this royal court. and she is trying to find some kind of love interest, and i do think this is a love triangle. and it also is a book about decedents of the Greek gods.

more then just a pretty face by Syed M Masood. this comes out August 4th. this sounds like such a cute YA romance, and i cannot wait to read this one. and this book just sounds so sweet and adorable romance. this honestly sounds like such a good YA rom com, and it’s honestly something i really need right now.

the stitcher by Lorien Lawrence. this book comes out August 18th. if you follow me whatsoever, you know that i don’t read that many middle grade books, mostly YA and adult. but, this honestly sounds like such a good middle grade, and such a good book for anyone that read goosebumps as a kid. so, i honestly cannot wait to read this book.

some Laney’s die by Brooke Skipstone. this book comes out August 10th. this sounds like such a wild ride of a book, especially since it’s a YA thriller and mystery, which are two of my favorite genres combined. and i honestly have no clue what this is about, since i’ve heard multiple different things from multiple different people and websites.

how to live on the edge by Sarah Lynn Scheerger. this book comes out August 4th. this sounds like such a great book about getting over loss and how to move on with your life. and also trying to live her life when she thinks she is going to die soon. but, i honestly hope there is some type of romance, since i think that it would add to the story, but who knows.

the best of friends by Lucinda Berry. this book comes out August 18th. this honestly sounds like a weird book to talk about, since i think it follows around three best friends that are male, but then i heard someone say they are female, so i have no clue what to honestly expect with this book. and even how much i’ll even like this.

hidden bones by Vivian Barz. this book comes out August 11th. when i requested this book on Netgalley, and then got accepted for, i did not realize that this was a sequel. but, i think it doesn’t follow it to directly, fingers crossed, but i might try to get the first from my library. but, i still think this will be a cool and fun detective read.

Raolasan Tiago and the River of tears by Tehlor Kay Mejia. this comes out August 4th. i honestly don’t even know if i spelled that right, haha. but, i think it is. but, i do think that the whole book sounds so cool, but hopefully it is good, and not to sexists like rick riordan presents are, so fingers crossed.

the first to lie by Hank Phillippi Ryan. this book comes out August 4th. this book honestly sounds like such a book that would make me so confused and make my head spin. but, i honestly think that it would sound so amazing. and i honestly want to read a book that will make my head spin right now.

midnight sun by Stephanie Meyer. this book comes out August 4th. i’m honestly so excited for this book. but, i honestly don’t know what to say about this book, since everyone knows what twilight is about, so honestly what is the point for explaining it.

where dreams descend by Janelle Angeles. this one comes out August 25th. i actually already own this book, since it was in one of the owlcrates. and i do think this is a really cool book, since i believe it has a circus. i’m not the biggest fan of that in books, since it always falls short for me.

now that i’ve found you by Kristina Forest. this book comes out August 25th. okay, honestly this sounds like everything i could want for this book. i love the whole plot with the grandma, but also the whole part about hollywood, and then also a cute YA romance.

anyway, that’s it for today. there are honestly so many good books coming out this month, and i honestly can’t wait to get to them in like 10 months cause we know how amazing i am with reading new releases.

August tbr

hello everyone! today i am going to be talking about all the books i want to read in August. and i’m doing multiple read a thons this month, so i’m just going to add everything into this one post. and honestly i’m so excited for all of these books. i’m also going to try to read a bunch of arcs, so hopefully i can get a couple in.

DISNEY A THON-

the little mermaid-

ARIEL- read a book featuring a singer as the main character.

i’ll be the one by Lyla Lee. i’m honestly so excited for this book. i mean, it has plus size rep, and telling you that you don’t need to be skinny to be singer, that just sounds so amazing. and hopefully it will be accurate, and it wouldn’t be that toxic, like a most books with fat main characters are.

FLOUNDER- read a book with a great friendship

waiting for tom hank by Kerry Winfrey. i’ve actually already started this book, and Chloe and Annie are so cute together. and i mean that they are always so much of a great friendship, and they honestly have such a cute friendship, and it wasn’t even that jealous kind since Annie wants a boyfriend.

PRINCE ERIC- read a book by your favorite author

Disney lands by Ridley Pearson. i’ve added this book for another prompt, but i hope i can actually read it for this month, since i wanted to read it last month, and we all see how that worked. but, i honestly think that this will be kinda cute, since this is a book about disney.

URSULA- read a book which the main character changes their appearance a lot.

part of your nightmare by Vera Strange. i’m not even if this book is about changing your appearance, but this book is all about Ursula fits. so i mean it literally is the perfect book. and i can’t wait to read this. but, anyway i kind of assume the main girl will change her appearance somewhat.

SEBASTIAN- read the group book

a song below water by Bethany C. Marrow. i’ve already started this book, and i’m at like 50%. and honestly this whole book sounds so amazing. and i think that this book is honestly so amazing. and i cannot wait to get more into this book.

princess and the frog –

TIANA- read a book with a hard working main character.

girls with sharp sticks by Suzanne Young. this would be a reread of this book, and i’m honestly so excited to read this. i mean, i love this book so much, and it honestly has so much girl power, which totally fits Tiana, and i guess princess and the frog in general.

PRINCE NAVEEN- read a book with royalty

a court of thrones and roses by Sarah J Mass. i honestly am kinda scared to read this book. i mean, everyone reads this book, and honestly everyone loves this and talks about it. and i did get an ARC of this on netgalley, so that’s kinda cool i guess.

DOCTOR FACILIAR- read a book where magic is used

Disney Lands by Ridley Pearson. i’m not actually sure if this would qualify as a book where magic is used. but, the rest of the books have magic, so i’m assuming that it has some kind of magic. and i mean it is a Disney book, so it probably magical.

RAY- read the group book

beach read by Emily Henry. i’m honestly so excited for this book. it honestly sounds like just the perfect summer romantic comedy book. and i cannot wait to read these, and it also has two writers, which just sound so amazing. and i cannot wait to read this book and hopefully it will live up to the hype.

NETGALLY A THON

OLDEST ARC-

the safe place by Anna Downes. honestly, i have no clue why i requested this book, but i do think that the book sounds really cool and interesting. but, i have heard this book is very predictable, but i still hope that it is pretty good. but, i never heard of anyone talking about this book, like on Youtube.

NEWEST ARC-

under you skin by Rose McClelland. i honestly have no clue what this book is about, but i think the cover is really pretty. but, i do think this is an adult mystery/thriller, which is something i love so much, if you couldn’t tell.

ARC I REGRET REQUESTING-

the extaorinaries by TJ Klune. i feel really mean with saying this, but i don’t remember requesting this. and i also don’t really know what it’s about, and it’s all about superhero’s and whatnot.

ARC I’M MOST EXCITED FOR-

Cinderella is dead by Kalynn Bayron. look, i know this book is out already, but i completely forgot when i was in my reading slump. so, i’m hopefully going to read this for now, and hopefully will love this book.

anyway, that’s it for today. i really want to read more arcs this month, since i got a lot and i just need to read all of them. but, i still hope to read some books on my libby and then some that i own and whatnot.
