Blog Tour: The Code for Love and Heartbreak by Jillian Cantor

Posted October 12, 2020 by Wendy in Blog Tour, Reviews / 0 Comments

The Code for Love and Heartbreak is an inventive and cute contemporary retelling of Jane Austen’s Emma. It centers around Emma, an analytical number focused, top of her class student. Numbers are black and white and make sense to her – they always do what they’re supposed to and she much prefers straightforward numbers to subjective feelings. As co-president of her school’s coding club, she comes up with the idea for an app to predict a person’s “perfect match” based […]

Blog Tour: Permanent Record by Mary H.K. Choi

Posted September 4, 2019 by Wendy in Blog Tour, Reviews / 0 Comments

What really drew me to Permanent Record is the fact that it’s about someone who just has no idea what to do with their life as a twenty year old. It’s that stage after high school when everyone now views you as an “adult” and they ask you about your major and your career aspirations when really, a mere year or less earlier, you were just a kid sitting in class and getting through high school. It’s like an unspoken […]

Review: Serious Moonlight by Jenn Bennett

Why Did I Read? I have LOVED Jenn Bennett’s other YA contemporaries (Alex, Approximately and Starry Eyes) like they’re on all time favorite statuses. So this was one of my most anticipated 2019 releases and ever since I first heard it announced I wanted it ASAP because 1) it takes place in MY BELOVED CITY, 2) mysteries, 3) half-asian love interest! I was so fortunate to snag a copy at ALALMW and it was the first one I read from the books […]

I was on a multi day backpacking hiking trip in New Zealand when I read it! I was literally out in the forest and the great outdoors as I read about Zorie and Lennon hacking it out there. Firstly, a little bit of background: I […]

Dear Jenny Han…

So recently I binge read the entire To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before series by Jenny Han. Here’s the thing. I am and always will be a fantasy gal. Contemporaries aren’t my go to so I was a little nervous heading into the series. I couldn’t have been more surprised by how much I loved it! I had so many thoughts and feelings as I read through these books and I think the best way for me to articulate them […]
