I liked the way Kelly, Ayinde and Becky met. How each were so different and yet got along well. I liked the way they accepted Lia in their small mom‘s group.

Jude and Cardan‘s relationship is so love-hate and each will do as they please. Kinda enjoyed the ending.

Cardan‘s relationship with Jude is one of hate/love. Im not really sure it‘s love, probably is passion mixed in. Liked this one better than the first book. It ended in a whole different way than I expected.

The Cruel Prince | Holly Black

I fix him with a look. “ I can be charming. I charmed you, didn‘t I?” He rolls his eyes. “Do not expect others to share my depraved tastes.”

Cardan is a prince and no one has stood up to him, only Jude. She has a strong personality and won‘t let him do his way.

The Cruel Prince | Holly Black

It turns out that having kissed someone, the possibility of kissing hangs over everything, no matter how terrible an idea it was the first time. The memory of his mouth on mine shimmers in the air between us.

Elizabeth Zott is a chemist in a time where women weren‘t allowed to be any other thing than a housewife. She encourages other to look for more. She raised Mad in a way that allowed each other to learn and gave her tools to know how she should make her path in this world.

You might think people hate you and be wrong about it. Joshua Templeman is just so irresistible! People can definitely go from hate to love.

Mallory is stuck between what she wants and what she should do for family. I like the way chess is explained and the facts given about sexism.

I liked the way Salander is described, how people helped her because they knew her. But I‘m not a fan of books that over describe things.

Liked the story and how it ended. A relationship is something to work on if you‘re into it, let it go if you‘re not on the same page.

Not a pick because I liked some parts hated others. But could relate to overthinker Bee, I think that‘s why I couldn‘t stop reading it.

It was a great read! I think the context is interesting and the main characters ❤️ I find interesting Jess‘s personality, she‘s like most women overthinking everything and at some point sabotaging because of self doubt. Simply loved it. 2024

I loved the way the story develops. A twin story with different personalities and different luck. Do you think people is lucky or unlucky or luck is something we make by ourselves?

You just need to now yourself, to be confident and go for what you want and for this you need to be surrounded by people who believe in you. That is what Ruthie has around her. I could definitely picture tattooed handsome Teddy.

It wasn‘t my favorite but it kept me reading until the end. I had to know what happened next. Should I continue reading the other two books of the series?

Liked the way the story develop, didn‘t expect the changes. I loved Rhysand‘s personality and the way Feyre stepped up. 2023

Feyre is brave, opinionated and definitely an over thinker. I like strong characters that won‘t give up and she‘s the kind of person that will fight for what she wants. It‘s the kind of book that I started to read and at some point couldn‘t stop reading. Hope the second one is as good.

StaceGhost I actually liked the second one better! 2y
Agabriv @StaceGhost you were right the second one is better 2y

I loved the brain, the overthinking and crazy friendship that Olive, main character, was given in the story. Really enjoyed the context and I could really picture the description given. Really loved it.

There are so many topics that people avoid talking about. It can be because they don‘t really want to face reality or maybe cause they just don‘t care. Can anyone ever really know what‘s going through somebody‘s head? Could you stop people from putting and end to their pain?

The mind is a remarkable thing. Just because you can‘t see the wound doesn‘t mean it isn‘t hurting. It scars all the time, but it heals.

Had to read it again.

Kris10H Haven't read this one, but the style of the cover illustration makes me feel so nostalgic of all the books I read as a kid.❤ 4y
Agabriv @Kris10H It‘s like The babysitter club books, don‘t know if you ever read those. Brings back childhood memories. 4y
Kris10H @Agabriv I read many of the BSC books, and had an obsession with Sweet Valley Twins (and then Sweet Valley High). Do you remember the Girl Talk series? Classic. 4y

I totally enjoyed the book. I like the way the points of view of such controversial topic are given. People judge and never dare to think of what people may feel once they make a choice and how that affects emotionally.

Not the hero and the villain, not the pro life activist and the abortion doctor, not the cop and the killer. We are all drowning slowly in a tide of our opinions, oblivious that we are taking on water every time we open our mouths.
