pickThought this was a really good book tackling the issue of teen suicide. Very sad but beautiful story.

😂 My least favourite word! So glad someone agrees 🤭
pickThis is a story of isolation. When her brother commits suicide, Alexis becomes isolated from her parents and friends. And then she starts seeing glimpses of her brother. The grief is palpable.
Whatcha up to today, friends?

Wow, another month is done already. It was a great reading month for me. I managed to finish 37 books in April (31 audiobooks, 5 physical books, 1 ebook), my favorites from them pictured.

pickAs Lex deals with her grief and guilt in the months after her brother‘s suicide, Cynthia Hand delivers a #heartwrenching story, but it‘s not without hope. This is one of my favorites so far this month. #MountTBR #ReadingResolutions
pickI cried a bit through the last, like, third of this book. Possibly in part because it was nearing 4 am and I was v tired and definitely finishing the book before I went to sleep, but also because i just felt terribly invested.
10/10 would read a sequel
pickAnother slayer. But a really realistic portrait of recovering from the suicide of a love one. I can't write anymore right now.
I should totally be working right now... but I am incapable of putting this book down for longer than 20 minutes!!!

Starting to feel the constraints and pressure from reading challenges and tbr lists so no formal reading plans this month. I am however most anticipating getting some reading done at the beach house later this month, my favorite family outing. Read this YA book last summer, was a good one.
There's death all around us.
We just don't pay attention.
Until we do.
-Cynthia Hand
pickThe Last Time We Say Goodbye is a heart wrenching tale that gives the world a better look on the effects of suicide. Because when we are on the verge of death, selfishness takes over, and sometimes we need to pause our life with a comma, and not end t with a period.
Definite 5/5.
pickWhile I was supposed to be studying I, instead, finished reading this book. I couldn't put it down. It's about a girl whose brother committed suicide and how she tries to move on. The main character's sarcasm made me laugh and the story made me cry. I definitely recommend.
pickI can't seem to read enough YA fiction lately. This is a story of suicide and its effect on family members left behind. Finished this up while on break at work this morning... should have waited until I got home because I ugly cried!
Today I had to say goodbye to a friend. We took her to the vet today for tests and unfortunately it was determined that her organs were beginning to fail and there was nothing we could do. She has been with me for 16 years, and it's hard to imagine the house with out her.
I do thank everyone for their well wishes on my previous post. ❤️
pickThis book made my heart ache. It was so beautifully written. The depiction of grief and loss was so REAL. This is a must read.
I woke up this morning thinking I had to be at work 😖. The relief I felt when I realized it was Saturday!! Glad to be able to spend the day doing what I want to be doing: reading!
pick*Sniff!* so good! The light at the end of the tunnel is NOT cliche and is so beautiful! Worth the dark to get to the light of the book! Must read!
If you're looking for a book that will leave a mark on you. Better add this on your TBR. This book made me cry. It's more family-centered than romantic.
