Before I Let Go
by Kennedy Ryan
View in Library Catalog
book cover


I’m not really a romance novel reader, but this book came highly recommended so I gave it a try & I’m happy I did. The story was well written, relatable and character development highlighted the significance of therapy in mental health crisis. I couldn’t put the book down & now that I’ve completed it, I’m looking forward to book 2 and the story of one of the minor characters from this series.

The Queen of Nothing

this book is for sure my favorite in the series. I could not stop reading! Jurdan is one of my favorite ships ever and the series is literally the epitome of enemies to lovers (especially in the fantasy genre) and I am sure to reread this series again. I was so invested in the book it physically hurt to finish it. all the description and emotion was so surreal I LOVED it.

I love every new character in this series! With every chapter comes a new question to be answered and a game to be played. Everything, from the plot, to the new characters, are impeccably written! Can't wait to see where this series goes next! Eagerly awaiting the next book.

Seven Year Itch

I liked this more than Mountain Men Matchmatcher #1. Although it was frustrating that they didn’t just communicate what they both wanted. Also kind of annoying that every book ending now has to include a proposal, marriage, or baby at the end!

The Midnight Library

3.5 stars. This was a cute read. I would have shortened it slightly, and I appreciate what other reviewers had to say about its heavy handedness with platitudes and self-help tropes, but I enjoyed it. Light but meaningful.

The Past Is Red

book cover


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.

Chainsaw Man, Vol. 10

Chainsaw Man Volume 10 delivers chaos, heartbreak, and raw emotion. The pacing is relentless, the twists are brutal, and the art is as wild as ever. Denji’s inner turmoil deepens which is making this volume both action-packed and emotionally intense.

Not In Love

Very disappointed with the plot. I love a good woman in stem protagonist but this plot was really just an erotic novel.

The Rules Of Attraction
by Bret Easton Ellis

book cover


5 stars. Everyone in this book is an asshole and a piece of shit and I love it. It’s literally like “The Catcher in the Rye” but in college at Camden filled with sex, drugs, good music, drama, abortions and constant stream of thoughts. All the characters care about themselves, even when they try to be considerate of others, and do things for their benefit only. Lauren still misses Victor, not knowing what he does behind her back in Europe, promising to never sleep with anyone but him, while sleeping with anyone but him. Paul and his many MANY bisexual crises between Sean, Lauren, Mitchel, Richard and a bunch of other characters. And Sean pretending to be a poor welfare kid, (even though he’s rich as hell, I mean his brother is literally Patrick Bateman) just to try to get free coke or weed or shrooms, while picking up random girls (and some dudes) and breaking everyone’s hearts. Bret Easton Ellis, you are now apart of my favourite authors list.

Good Material

This book offers a witty and relatable exploration of heartbreak from a male perspective, capturing the ups and downs of navigating life after a breakup. While I appreciated the humor and introspection, I sometimes found Andy's self-pity a bit grating, making it hard to fully enjoy his journey.
