“She reads books as one would breathe air, to fill up and live .”
★★★ My honest Review on Face off by Chelsea Curto ★★★ My honest Review on Face off by Chelsea Curto Chelsea Curto’s writing style is always easy to get into and I enjoy her books. At times the story dragged but it picked back up again. I really liked the chemistry and banter between the characters, and the slow build made me feel their closeness. At first I wasn’t sure about Mavvy and Emmy together, but the way the author let them learn about each other in fun ways won me over. Their dynamic was funny and gave me a lot of laugh-out-loud moments. I also loved the friendship between Emmy and Hudson, as well as the bond with the hockey team and the girlies. The ending worked, but it didn’t give me full 5 star feels. Still, I really appreciated seeing women in men’s sports even in a fictional setting. #bookstagram #bookreviews

don’t want what she’s had. You want more. You dese don’t want what she’s had. You want more. You deserve more. And I’m going to give it to you. Nod if you understand me.” “You’re a lot of things, Red. But flighty is not one of them.” At first, I wasn’t sure if I’d like this book because of Cade Easton’s behavior, but around the 20–30% mark, I began to appreciate and understand him. The story is beautifully written—wholesome and heartwarming—with a slow but steady deepening of the relationship between Cade and Willa, illustrated perfectly through the little details of their individual perspectives. Willa especially resonates with me; she reminds me a bit of myself. Despite her always smiling and making giddy jokes, it’s clear that she’s carrying a lot of inner pain. I also loved the way Willa cared for and loved Luke as if he were her own. For me, the story ended beautifully, yet I couldn’t help wishing for a little more after that big turning point. The ending felt a bit rushed, and I was left wanting to see more of what happens after the major changes. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the storyline.
Hi, everyone I haven’t posted in a while but I’ve Hi, everyone I haven’t posted in a while but I’ve know know found the motivation and passion to post .

City and bones book review ★★★★ “You know the s City and bones book review ★★★★ “You know the sword; you know the dagger. I said, And you know who I am. if you must address me, use my name.” (Help why do I keep crying at the quote ) Can you still like a book and give it a low rating even though it got you out of a slump? For me, I feel like I have to write my reviews right away, or else I will legitimately forget the entire plot. Even though I had started the show before reading this and knew somewhat of what was going to happen, I was so confused because at the beginning everything seemed so vastly different. I kept getting confused because my brain kept going back to everything that happened. But apart from that, the book got me out of a slump. I enjoyed it; I was bored at some parts. The world-building is easy to get into. Simon annoyed me in the first half of the book, Clary. I simply just don’t know anymore, and Alec, I still love him.

The Predator by RUNYX ★★★ If your have read The The Predator by RUNYX ★★★ If your have read The Predator what were you’re thoughts on the book “This book was way out of my comfort zone! I originally read the fourth book, which ended up being my favorite, but a friend convinced me to go back and read the first one. I wouldn’t say I regret it—because I don’t—but it was definitely a different experience.” Got it! Here’s a refined version that reflects that: “Tristan Cane was the first morally gray MMC I’ve ever read. Like Morgana, I tried to understand him, but he completely confused me. I sympathized with his trauma, but he was so unreadable and frustrating that I found it hard to like him at first. However, as his story unfolded, he gradually started to grow on me.” As for morgana I love a I don’t give a fuck FMC gosh she’s funny bowy and the things she gets her self into but anyways love her mom-the less and I salute her for putting up with Tristan I also skipped a lot of the smug sue me lol but at the time I felt no connection towards them as a couple.
Rating : ★★★★★ “We’re different.We agreed to be h Rating : ★★★★★ “We’re different.We agreed to be harmless to each other .” This review is a little longer that my others This book is excellent! Everything in it made sense. The characters are not your typical characters in a romance novel; they had real-life problems that needed to be solved to end up in the relationship that they ended up being in. I understood and related to both of the main characters. This book makes you understand the struggles of anxiety in the real world and how the characters felt so real that I was afraid to continue on. Why was that? Because I have seen both myself in the fmc and the mmc. This book is excellent! Everything in it made sense.
