Honey Girl was one of my most anticipated reads of 2021. Knowing that Grace Porter is in her late 20s and struggling with her place and path in life was something that called to the shadowy parts I like to keep hidden in me, especially as I approach my late twenties myself. Morgan Rogers' debut novel surpassed my expectations, far and beyond the furthest reaches of the galaxy. It was almost bittersweet having to keep turning the pages and eventually come to the end of this book.

While Honey Girl had less of a focus on the romance than I anticipated, the love depicted through friendships/found family in the story is absolutely radiant. Multiple times while reading, I found myself in or near tears simply because of how magnificent and tender yet fierce the love between Grace and her friends is. Not only is it a book beyond my dreams, but it is one overflowing with messages that I did not know I desperately needed to hear. Words that believe will cling to my bones, lift me, haunt me, and continue to sing in my heart for a long time to come. Longer review to come.

Oh my goodness I wanted to love this one! I finally gave up a little over half way. It is just so slow and boring that I see no need to continue on. I didn't "hate" it so I will give it a two star. Time to move onto something I will enjoy more!

This book has been on my radar for a while now, and Sapphic September felt like the perfect time to read it. Overall, it was a good read! I love the premise of this one so much. The representation in this book was phenomenal, and I love that it has a happy ending. The one thing that made this book a little bit difficult for me was the main character. Her growth was great and was the main focus of the plot, but she was insufferable for most of the book. Plus,**spoiler** I truly don't understand how everyone in her life moved on so quickly from her completely turning off her phone and ghosting them for weeks. That was kind of brushed off in a "oh it happens to the best of us" kind of way that didn't feel realistic. All in all, though, I would still recommend it!
