A review by melodramae
The Universe of Us, Volume 4 by Lang Leav
Did not finish book.
Didn't finish. 46%.
I had big expectations about this one, considering how much I loved Love & Misandventure and Lullabies. Even Memories I had a better relationship with. This time I just couldn't relate to the words at all, they seemed empty and frankly, not interesting to me at all. That doesn't mean that in a different situation I wouldn't like it better, I probably would - but from a perspective of someone who's not in love, isn't heartbroken, looks at it only from the "cutesy" and "aesthetic"-y side, it's not... good. It didn't tell me anything, didn't remind me of a time when I desperately needed to feel less alone.
So I decided not to put myself in a bigger reading slump and accept that an author who I'd been really excited for, doesn't have anything for me anymore. It's not her, it's me.
