Beach Read

Beach Read ✨✨
By: Emily Henry

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

• quick read
• romance
• quirky
• slow burn

Ok let me just say that I loveeeed this wayyyy than PWMOV. This book is cute and adorable just over all very good for the soul.

Let me just say, after reading this, it made me believe that regardless of whatever happens, everybody deserves a happy ending.

We need people like January Andrews to put a little more sunshine in our stories, who believes in happy endings no matter what it may be. We need an Augustus Everett to help people understand our stories..

My heart truly melted. Took me 5 hours to read this book and I wish I could read it for the first time all over again ✨✨

The Love Hypothesis

The Love Hypothesis

By: Ali Hazelwood

  • Quick read
  • romance
  • fake dating
  • love

3.5/5

This book started off strong for me. Then slow… Maybe the writing style isn’t my type? or maybe this was just a little unrelateable for me.

The story all in all was happened very quick but the middle part was lacking ”chemistry” yes, I said chemistry since there is some science talk on this one; which I liked.

Did I like it? Yes, the story was cute but maybe that was it for me. When I read something, I always connect more with ones I relate the most and this one was just not there for me.

Again, I liked it. Although, the there were a little too much characters in this one. It was a little hard to keep up especially because of the writing style. I did end up reading this for about 4 hours.

Some say that the ”spice” level on this book is definitely out there and in my opinion, yes I agree. But it definitely did not give me THE FEELS.

I am sad that I did not like this as much as I wanted to. Maybe I will give it another shot and re read it again.

People We Meet on Vacation

By: Emily Henry

  • Quick read
  • romance
  • friends to lovers
  • traveling
  • career
  • ambitions

This book started off strong for me. Then it became a little slower. None the less, I still liked it. This book hits very close to home for me.

I relate so closely to the female MC. In today’s society, it is very hard to juggle career, goals and personal life and this book heavily touches on this subject.

You can spend the rest of your life planning out what your future will look like but sometimes, life throws a curve ball that may alter that plan.

On more days than I want to admit, I have always struggled between my personal life and my career. Growing up, my career and my ambitions always came first. Then life happened. I can’t truly say I want to go back and undo it, but sometimes; I catch myself day dreaming of the ”what if’s”… What if I stuck to the plan? I worked very hard to get to where I am now, but if I had stuck to the plan, I would have gotten here sooner.

Would I be happy then? Would I be content? That I will never know. Because I do love the life I chose, I love the person I have become. I WAS content but sometimes, that contentment has an expiration date. As humans, you will always dream, you will always want more.

This book will make you want to have it all. But like always, things doesn’t always go according to plan.

It Ends With US

I know it has been awhile since I wrote something. Even I am surprised that I was still able to access my log in… Anyway, as of 2022; I decided to pick up reading again. I haven’t really read in 4 months. But this time I am inspired to read AND review.

This is my first pick for 2022 –

  • Quick read
  • relationship/romance
  • domestic violence
  • trauma

In my opinion, this book was worth all the hype. In the greater scheme of this, this book shows that everyone heals differently and that past traumas can significantly affect your future.

No matter how much you think you’ve healed, someone out there is always going to challenge you and one of those is LOVE.

At the end of the day, everyone needs love. But sometimes, things are just meant to stay broken, especially if you have to gamble your physical and mental health for it. Sometimes, the best things in life is walking away from something and this book has shown that.
