Welcome to my weird world!
Let me put this out there first; everyone in this book is a sweetheart. So if you are looking for a very down-to-earth book, this is it. But of course read What If It’s Us first. But then you might need a breather before this one. Cause these are loooooong romance books. Two years ago,... Continue Reading →
Hayley Kiyoko’s fans refer to her as Lesbian Jesus, and considering how down-to-earth this book of hers is, plus the simply good and proud vibes I get from her whenever I see her on screen, I might really have been missing out. Nine years ago, Kiyoko made a song with the same name, plus a... Continue Reading →
Avatar: The Last Airbender is my favourite cartoon TV series, and it’s really tough to imagine a cartoon ever overtaking it. I also liked the first season of the live-action adaptation quite a bit, and I know this puts me in the minority, but I also saw some real beauty in the 2010 movie. Suffice... Continue Reading →
I’ll be thinking about this book for a long time, and probably associating it with some decisions I make for myself. Henry Denton is a teenager from a rather troublesome part of Florida. I mean, before everywhere of Florida became a cesspool thanks to DeSantis. He has a mother with a waitressing job she hates... Continue Reading →
I love social justice books. We really need them right now. This Book Won’t Burn is from Samira Ahmed, an author who deserves to be looked up to, by authors and advocates alike. I admittedly wasn’t much of a fan of Love, Hate & Other Filters, but Internment was a dystopian book about American internment... Continue Reading →
I think this book literally rescued me. All is not well in my life right now. And, well, neither was Sasha’s life, and this book basically slapped me in the face to tell me to get myself back together. If ever you’re in need of a heartwarming feel-good book with relatable drama and enjoyable silliness,... Continue Reading →
I got exactly what I wanted out of this book, something I haven’t had much of lately. And even if I did have some recent satisfying reads, which, again, I haven’t, I’m sure Pride & Prejudice & Pittsburgh would’ve still stood out. Audrey Cameron is a teen from Pittsburgh who has dreams of going to... Continue Reading →
A gay Romeo & Juliet sort of tale? Has been done before, and that shouldn't be surprising. The very theme of forbidden love is incredibly relatable for anyone in the LGBTQ+ community. And yet, it shouldn't really matter if something's a bit familiar if you can speed through it easy peasy. Without spoiling too much... Continue Reading →
I read the first Serpent & Dove and devoured it. I gave it my highest grade, being one of the most fun reads in ages at the time. But Blood & Honey, despite having many similar elements, struggled to keep my attention the same way. The last Serpent & Dove was about a secret witch... Continue Reading →
I read the first Aristotle & Dante seven years ago right when I was starting college, and though I could see the appeal that made it an instant beloved classic, I remember I was in a very rough time when reading and that may have really diluted my enjoyment. My first boyfriend and I had... Continue Reading →
