pickIf you like YA fiction, romance and healing books then this is for you. Its about a girl named Morgan who was at school during a shooting but she feels she is partly to blame for it. Morgan now is too afraid to go into the outside world so she stays in her apartment everyday. She is very comfortable with the way things are, that is until her new neighbour Evan moves in. He reminds her of everything that she misses from the outside world.
Things have been so rough lately.
It's put me in a reading and life slump.
Depression has been kicking my butt to a point I'm considering outpatient treatment again. Bleh.
And with how stressed I've been at work, I asked to be demoted. I no longer want to be in charge. Being an assistant just doesn't work for me. It was hard to bring up, but I had to do it. I'm hoping things will be okay from this point on.
pickHave given this a pick , as it‘s a quick, easy read that deals sensitively with a difficult issue.
It is Y/A though and becomes a bit over simplified and has a very neat and tidy ending.
“Be in the moment,” she says. “This is your moment. There is only one you.”
#tbt Here are some books I read this time last year! There was a nine day gap where I didn't finish anything, and weirdly there was also a nine day gap this year. (It was between the 6th and 15th.)
We got to chat with Marisa Reichardt about her debut novel, "Underwater," her inspirations, and more! Read our interview here: http://www.germmagazine.com/pasadena-loves-ya-interview-with-author-marisa-reich...
pickI was very excited to read this book - but to be honest I expected more from it. the characters could've been more detailed, the story unfolded way too fast, every obstacle was overcome and the protagonist happy. I mean it is YA so it makes sense that it's simple-ish but.. I still enjoyed it though!
