Wow. This book was amazing. A wonderful read with an emphasis on the strong and intelligent women who were deemed much less during the true events this book is based upon. 5/5 ⭐️

I reallyyyy wanted to love this one, I have heard such good things, but for some reason I just didn‘t love it. There were some really slow parts in this book, but also some fast ones as well. Some unenjoyable characters, and some likable ones. Overall, the ending saved this book for me. 3/5 ⭐️

I have been wanting to read this book for a while now. The plot really intrigued me and I would say it didn‘t disappoint. There were definitely parts that were slower than others, but overall it was an enjoyable read and incredibly suspenseful at some points!

The Song of Achilles | Madeline Miller
Mehso-so

It has been SO long since I have had the time to sit down and finish a book, and this one was my first pick. Unfortunately, I think it was overhyped for me. I can appreciate the love story within this book, but I can‘t say that I was left heartbroken after this read, which so many people have said you would. BUT I do think if you are very interested in Greek mythology you‘ll love this read! 3.5/5 ⭐️

I loved this book!! I think it is the epitome of a perfect summer read. I loved the setting, and of course I loved Percy and Sam‘s romance. I am a big fan of dual timeline books, as well as a friends to lovers trope, so this book won me over!! 4.5/5 ⭐️

Confess: A Novel | Colleen Hoover

I seriously couldn‘t put this book down. Started and finished in one day, with such a fast pace and intriguing characters it was easy! I was rooting for these two the entire time, and of course it wouldn‘t be a CoHo book without a shocking twist at the end. 4.5/5⭐️

I picked this book up because I will read anything that Reece Witherspoon recommends. It took me longer than usual to get into it, but I was able to get passed that and I am glad that I did because I think that the message within this book is very meaningful and one that I can appreciate. 3/5 ⭐️

This was a really enjoyable read! I am personally a huge fan of split timelines in books, and Emily Henry did this one beautifully. I loved seeing how Poppy and Alex‘s romance grew over all the years and it really made the ending so worth it. Overall, a super fun and fast summer read! 4.5/5 ⭐️

Without Merit: A Novel | Colleen Hoover
Pickpick

With each new book I read of Colleen Hoover‘s I am fascinated by her ability to have such diversity in her writing. This story was so much more than just a romance novel as it tackled some pretty hard topics. Overall, it may not be my favorite novel by Colleen but I can really appreciate the message of this book.
3.5/5⭐️

Ok not gonna lie, this book had a slow start for me but once I got half way through I couldn‘t put the book down. I found this story so heartwarming and it surprised me how much I could feel for an octopus. Marcellus was truly remarkable 💜 4/5 ⭐️

Regretting You | Colleen Hoover
Pickpick

This book felt different from the other Colleen books I have read, but I liked it. I really enjoyed the mother-daughter dynamic and honestly all the characters were just so likable. Some parts of the story were predicable and borderline cliché but it didn‘t take too much away from the story, overall I found it heartwarming

Sadly this one will not be making it to the favorites list. :( However, I can always appreciate Colleen‘s writing therefore I was able to read this book pretty fast and still appreciate the plot as well, despite a little un-likability of the main characters. 6/10

I have yet to read anything by Taylor Jenkins Reid that I didn‘t enjoy. The style this book was written in kept it fun and fast and it was so easy to feel connected to the characters. While I personally may have been hoping for a different ending, overall the book was great and the ending was fitting enough! 8/10
