Letters to the Lost

Letters to the Lost by Brigid Kemmerer

5/5 Stars Heart gripping from the start, Letters to the Lost wrapped me up with Brigid Kemmerer’s free flowing writing and ability to simply connect with the characters. I fell right in with Juliet and Declan; both have a piece that I completely understood. This book made me feel. It brought out so many emotions …

The Lovely Reckless

The Lovely Reckless by Kami Garcia

  For my first Kami Garcia book, it did not let me down. This was fast-paced and super exciting. I absolutely loved the story and everything about the characters. Frankie was such a perfect teenager; she has so many problems going on in her own life while trying to juggle school. This completely related to …

Windwitch

Windwitch by Susan Dennard

5/5 Stars Completely blew away my expectations! Truly utterly astounding. My jaw literally just dropped open when I realized the book was over. I flipped through the last page to the acknowledgements thinking there was more, but no, sadly. This book was unbelievable, wondrous, and so full of adventure. All of the characters’ points of …

Graces

The Graces by Laure Eve

5/5 Stars I read this book in a day and stayed up late in the night to finish it. Magical and dark, this book was everything I wasn’t expecting. I knew next to nothing when I started reading and right away, only 100 pages in I knew I would be obsessed with this book. River, …

Maybe Someday

Maybe Someday by Colleen Hoover

This book touched my soul. No one could have perfectly blended music into a book as Colleen Hoover did. This story was absolutely nothing I was expecting (as most Hoover books are to me) it to be and I love this story so very much. Ridge was mysterious and fiercely loyal. Sydney was unique and fun. The instant chemistry …

My Heart and Other Black Holes

My Heart and Other Black Holes
by Jasmine Warga

“5/5 Stars “This book brought out everything. I wanted to scream and cry and laugh in tears of joy. It made me realize how important the people around you really truly are. I honestly loved this book so much. It was so unpredictable. Within two day I finished it wanting to know what was going …

The DUFF by Kody Keplinger

“5/5 stars “From seeing the trailer everywhere and knowing I wanted to see the movie, I had to read the book. It is sort of a code. Read the book then see the movie. “The DUFF was everything I wasn’t expecting. I judged the book believing it was to be a stereotypical girl-wants-to-be-pretty-and-popular, gets-the-jock-to-help-her, and eventually-falls-in-love-with-him story. Nope, …
