To Beatrix, Jack is charming, wildly attractive . . . But soon she begins to see who Jack really is-and tries to uncover what he's hiding that leaves him so wounded.

This was such a cute, fluffy, romantic contemporary. The locations of San Francisco were written perfectly and the writing blended together well with a fast pace. The MC Bex was quirky, odd and honest who loves drawing anatomical pictures, the hawt love interst is Jack, a night time graffiti artist. The romance developed fast but was cute, and a little spicy. It had such a good take on mental health and also had a sweet HEA ending!

A great read. Read for the August #Buzzwordathon - Time of Day 4/5

A romantic story about a girl and boy (both artists) harboring secrets, who help each other heal and grow.

They‘re done!! Mom wants to show them off at the knitting class she teaches every Tuesday lol! I‘ve decided to name the little guy (black, blue & purple) Petrie after my fave Land Before Time character! The others are yet to be decided 🤔

Aren‘t they freakin‘ cute!? 🤯 My mom knit them & now I need them!! I‘m gonna wait until she‘s done the medium sized one (which she just started) & then try sweet talking her into letting me have them all! 😼Wish me luck 😉🤣 #OwlLove 🦉🥰📚🎶

Hi bookworms!! What have you been reading lately?!
Sorry about my absence, I have been in a reading slump lately - but this book really helped me get rid of my slump! It‘s a cute insta-love sort of contemporary novel that‘s just really fun to read. Insta-love is my least favorite thing lol, but this one has a couple of things that I really appreciated- I won‘t spoil for you. I would recommend to anyone who is in a slump or needs a feel good story.

This was fab! There is so much good in this book! Fantastic teen love story about a cute artist and another cute artist - who work in different mediums, have different struggles and how they figure out they deserve the happiness they find in each other. #readmyowndamnbooks

On the bus with a book I never wanted to end.

Little sneak peak at OwlCrates May box , I absolutely loved this box! I squealed like a little girl over the contents in it 😍 #Booksubscription

“What do I want?” His fingers brushed over loose strands of hair near my temple. “I want to call you every five minutes. I want to text you good night every night. I want to make you laugh. And I want you to look at me like you did that first night on the bus.”

💖💖💖

"Having an unbiased pair of eyes point out a sensible solution was helpful. But the sensible thing and the right thing weren‘t always the same choice, and no one but you could truly understand the difference."

I fell in love with this as I read it over the summer, I would definitely read it again. Can I marry Jack? Yes? Ok thanks

Do you have a set bed time or do you read until you fall asleep? I am trying to enforce a Midnight bed time and sleep more this year! (Patch by AJ Bronznya)

I love that this book is set in San Francisco. Here's the Legion of Honor, where Bex spends her birthday.

Head to foreveryoungadult.com to find out how to win a signed copy-- Jenn herself is giving away a signed copy of the book (and you choose the cover)!

Let's ease into this month's questions with an icebreaker! (No book spoilers on this post, please.)

Has a piece of art or an artist ever made a big impact on you? Tell us about it!

December's FYA Book Club pick is THE ANATOMICAL SHAPE OF A HEART by @Jenn_Benn. Check back soon for discussion questions—don't worry, we'll use spoiler tags— and join FYAers around the world to chat about this super swoony read.
#fyabookclub #decfyabc

This was just the kind of light, fluffy novel I was craving. I loved the details about SF and the discussion of art. My favorite part was the humane and realistic depiction of serious mental illness, even though it wasn't the focus of the story.

This adorable YA love story seems eye-rollingly typical at first (Meet-cute! Swoonworthy bad boy with a mysterious secret!) but there are just enough unique touches to keep it interesting. For example, the MC's greatest aspiration in life is to be an artist... who draws cadavers. While the book also touches on mental illness and being caught in the middle of parents' divorce, it still managed to be the quick, lighthearted read I needed this week.

I adored this book. For me it was all about the boy. Glorious gorgeous Jack. He was everything *sighs*

So good - excellent romantic tension and a fantastic story

First sentence: The last train wasn't coming.
