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 […]
Why Did I Read? It sounds so magical and exciting! It sounded just like something I’d love. My Thoughts: Caraval is seriously one of the most hyped books of 2017. It was hyped last year at BEA and the hype only grew as more people read and raved about it. I really meant to get to this way earlier, it was one of my top books from BEA that I wanted!

So… maybe I wouldn’t have disliked this book as much if it weren’t for the narrator? Perhaps. But […]
My Thoughts: I really love the Mechanics of Love series! Megan has written such an amazing group of characters. I love the Paytons and everyone in their family unit — even if they’re not related by blood, they’re family and it just touches my heart to see. In Dirty Deeds, we get Alex’s story. She is super guarded given her past but she’s been enveloped by all this love from the Paytons and their friends in the past year that she […]
