My Thoughts: Love From A to Z is such a beautifully told heartfelt story! It’s about Zayneb and Adam, two Muslim teens who randomly meet at the airport. It’s about friendship and love and the blatant racism and injustice that is so prevalent in our world today. It’s about navigating life through all its ups and downs and finding the people that are the marvels amongst the oddities. Zayneb and Adam are both at critical turning points in their lives […]

Why Did I Read? So I actually didn’t know the premise of this one before going into it! I knew it was a popular Broadway musical and this was the novelization and knew it had gained a lot of love this year. But the synopsis?

Juliet’s mother died and she is coping by writing her letters at her grave but who knew someone would find […]

I was really eager to see what exactly was going on with the attack and how Frances was going to go about her […]

The Fault in Our Stars is something I’ve put off reading for forever. The subject matter scared me! Kids and cancer. That is a recipe for heart aching disaster for me and for my heart’s sake, I put it off. However, with the movie coming out and all, I wanted to read it before watching it. I mentally braced myself. I started reading, preparing to have my heart ripped out. Now, I don’t know if it was the hype or […]
