5-Star Review: The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli

Review: The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli The Upside of Unrequited is my favorite read of 2017 so far. You know how all the rest of you felt about Simon Vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda? That it was perfect and wonderful and so so cute? So, bookish confession here: I really liked Simon, but it didn’t completely blow me away. I know, I know.

Wanderlost by Jen Malone | Review

Review: Wanderlost by Jen Malone You guys. Wanderlost by Jen Malone is this summer’s perfect beach read. You know the one I’m talking about. The book that has you racing through from page one, whipping through as fast as you can, falling so hard and fast for the heroine, the journey, THE BOY. The book that takes you on an adventure so compelling that you don’t notice that the sun is setting until your mom shakes your arm and tells you it’s time to go. The book that you read in the car going home and long into the night […]

Book Boyfriends and Pretty Dresses: Welcome to my #YAProm Night!

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted at The Broke and the Bookish to highlight a top ten list related to book blogging, and to get to know fellow book bloggers. Guys, you know I love me my book boyfriends, but I REALLY love this week’s TTT because it doesn’t preclude me from including girl characters as well as guys!
