 Number 5: Daughters Unto Devils by Amy Lukavics 

 Daughters unto DevilsThe cover to this book is very beautiful but I just did not like this book. I am normally put off of horror but this was not that scary it was just a little creepy. I ended up unhauling it, I don't know I guess I was expecting more. 







Number 4: Why We Broke Up by Daniel Handler

 Why We Broke UpThe cover to this is really simple but I really like it. However I didn't really like this book at all. I found so many things wrong with this book so...








Number 3: Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist by Rachel Cohn and David Levithan

 Nick & Norah's Infinite PlaylistLike the other two books, the cover for this book is really pretty especially as the cover only has words on it however the book just didn't live up to my expectations. I found the characters annoying and it did take me a long time to read for such a small book. 







Number 2: Eve by Anna Carey 

 Eve (Eve, #1)I did actually like this book but I was running out of options so I included this one. The cover of this book is really beautiful although I don't know if the cover lived up to how I felt about it.







Number 1: What We Left Behind by Robin Talley 

 What We Left BehindI was really excited about this book and this is represented in the cover, it is not afraid to make it known that it is a LGBTQ+ book and I love that. However I didn't love this book, I have a lot of problems with it and a review will be coming soon...

 See you soon,

My Reading Tastes Are Changing

For the last couple of years, I feel like this has become a reoccurring blog post but I want to talk about it now because I think something is actually happening in my reading life. My reading tastes are changing. I've felt it for a while. I haven't really been drawn to YA titles that much anymore especially contemporary. Being busy in my time, I have been really selective in the books that I pick up so for me: the shorter, the better. And when picking up shorter books, the less likely they are to be YA. The more I am exposed to more books, the more I get to read books that I connect to Some of the books that I have picked up have really surprised me because of how much I ended up enjoying them. I think as I grow older, I am looking for different stories, different experiences and different perspectives. These don't just fit the YA mould. I also have been really into different genres like horror and the occasional thriller which have not read from before and I'm interes

Book Review: The Great Godden by Meg Rossoff

   * I am reviewing this book which I was gifted for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts are my own. * Title: The Great Godden  Author: Meg Rossoff Publisher: Bloomsbury  Source: NetGalley ( Bookshop UK |  Hive |  Goodreads  |  Storygraph ) Book Summary: Everyone talks about falling in love like it’s the most miraculous, life-changing thing in the world. Something happens, they say, and you know … That’s what happened when I met Kit Godden. I looked into his eyes and I knew. Only everyone else knew too. Everyone else felt exactly the same way. This is the story of one family, one dreamy summer – the summer when everything changes.
