The book Sisters is a follow up from her other book smile. The book is about a long summer family vacation. They were taking a trip from San Francisco to Colorado. It is all about Reina and her younger sister Amara and their sisterly relationship. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.

This book was really good. As a fan of both murder mysteries and Holly Jackson, this book was on my TBR for a long time before I picked it up 2 days ago. I started it yesterday and could not put it done until I realized it was late and I hade to go to sleep.

The Cheat Sheet

I read this book for my book club and I loved it. A bunch of my friends hated it and did not finish it, but I am so glad I did. I finished this book while I was sick with the flu, and it was so good. This is probably the most slowburn of the slowburns. I usually don't like crazy big slowburns, but this one was so good. I would recommend this to all of my romance lovers.

Every. Single. Time. I think I have it all figured and she has to get me with that one final blurb at the end.

This was an interesting story, an uplifting one surrounding the devasation of 9/11. What an amazing group of townspeople in Gander, Newfoundland that opened their hearts and their homes to the passengers of all the planes that were diverted there when the US airspace was closed.

The Past Is Red

I read this book as part of Book Riot's Read Harder challenge to read a sci-fi novella. This is a genre I don't typically read. Post-apocalyptic stories tend to stay in my head, so I know they are thought-provoking and therefore worthwhile, but they also scare me, so I tend to shy away from them. Hence my three-star rating. The book probably deserves 3.5 or even 4 stars, but I have to lower it out of fear lol. It was unpleasant to read about a post-climate change society, even though that story did contain rays of hope. If you're a fan of the genre, though, I'd encourage you to give this book a try. The plot was perfectly thought out, I liked the characters, and the ideas were super creative. This one will stick with me for a while.
