Overall this book was a weird and wild time. First off it, has a creepy fascination with boys lol like I may have not payed close enough attention to it because it’s very short, but at least I could deduce that. Most of the time I was so lost on what the fuck was happening, but I came to realize that’s because they were time traveling?? Like okay Christopher Nolan maybe warn a girl?? Through the time travel the boys learned about different cultures Halloween’s and the origins of where their costumes come from, but I could barely focus on that because the boys are also little shits so??? Like why make the main characters personalities so unbearable? The best part of the book you ask? At least Pipkin is a cool af name.
Overall I feel like the entire message of this book is literally just COMMUNICATE! There were so many moments I just wanted to yell at Dexter or Emma bc they both were interested in each other and yet nothing happened bc nether of them could say how they felt UGH!
Thoughts while reading: ~spoilers ahead~
- Dexters letter saying she’s attractive and a catch and not to be self deprecating ugh love
Like he’s is kinda romanticcccc when he wants to be 😛 but what a tease setting this all up and then THE LETTER WAS NEVER SENT WTF
- Emma just hurts my heart bc I feel like this would easily happen to me FJDKKS like her feeling of inferiority is just so relatable I could cry
- ONLY ONE BED TROPEE 💅🏼
- WHY IS SHE WITH IAN IF SHES NOT INLOVE WITH HIM STUPID GIRLLL
- Thank god Emma finally put Dexter in his place
- NOT EMMA HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH THE HEAD MASTER NOOO
- Dexter getting engaged and having a baby and then Emma telling him she’s loosing him made me cryyy
- NOTT SILVIE AND CALLIM UGH
- My heart hurts for Dexter now that he’s inlove with Emma and she has a bf I just wanna cry for himmm
- EMMA DEAD??!?!?!????
- The meet cute it adorable I’m sad
- I keep getting fooled tho bc everyone says this is the saddest book of all time or whatever and this was sad, don’t get me wrong I teared up but like in the beginning with the yearning now after when she DIED 💀 I thought this book would work me and it did not… I kinda need a gut wrenching sob fest book soon and none of these are fulfilling my need.
- It would have been more emotionally terrible if he would’ve realized his love for her on the way to meet her and then she dies on her bike never having been able to confess his feelings for her NOW THAT wouldve been an ending! Alas- now I need a hot steamy romance with no sad vibes at the party 🙂↕️

Overall I am kinda disappointed in this book. This story was more of a woman finding herself through going on 12 dates and then realizing who she was in love with. I was expecting more of a singular romance with budding love, banter, etc. It was a decent book but not really the book I was hoping for. Not to mention the predictability of Matt and Kate ending up together… like come onnnn.
Outside of that I was also confused because at points Kate would fool around with these guys (specifically the asshole Richard) when she was inlove (AND KNEW IT) with someone else like wdym? No wonder Matt would yell at her smh.
Thoughts:
- OUAT mention!!
- Honestly her thinking about crashing out is so valid
- This book is essentially a 30 year old woman having a midlife crisis
- This book has been marketed as a comedy but it honestly just makes me sad. All of the thoughts that the women are having are in the perception of being trivial, sometimes shallow or over dramatic but it’s real feelings I think all women have experienced from time to time. Even though these characters are fake it seems exploitive to put it in a light to make fun of them when it’s raw and real
Review:
Tbh these books are so bad but it’s mindless reading that I crave like reality tv. This one especially kinda sucks bc the best part of of the series is bones and Kat’s relationship and this is just like squashing it. Bones is over dramatic as per usual, and the new character introduced, Gregor is so stupid. Find my thoughts while reading below!
Thoughts:
- Wtf kinda names are hopscotch and baindaid 😭
- She is to young to know she was getting gaslit
- you can clearly tell that Kat is not ready for the stuff that Gregor wants to do. One thing I love about bones is that he always made it to be Kat‘s choice and I hope she recognizes this. He basically says I’m gonna fuck you whether you like it or not
- VLAD IS BACK TO GET HER YASSSS EEEEEE
- Vlad looking like Cassian is taking me OUT
- Bones is too much rn 🙄 I’m cryinggg don’t do thisss. “Nothing you say matters” bones FUCK YOU! saying I have no wife… he has to be under some sort of fervor spell bc COME ON I KNOW THE BOOK WONT END LIKE THIS BUT ITS HURTING ME TO READ
- I bet dawn has cancer or something
- Her wanting to become a vampire seems so forced and sudden like her emotional Turmoil is not setting her up for success
- I hate how bones made it the ultimatum to have sex to turn her when she doesn’t know how to feel about him and doesn’t want to share her emotions yet AND his fake cheating has me deadd why is he making Kat seem like a fucking bitch and she’s not she’s just trying to help!
At least bones is owning up to his shit I just wish sex wasn’t like the answer
- VLAD AND KAT SHARE FIRE POWER EEEE

Thoughts:
As someone who isn’t religious at all I had no idea what was going on in the first part of the book. They definitely threw way too many characters at you all at once. I was scared I I’m wouldn’t remember anyone, but luckily just like game of thrones, the important ones stuck! I loved all the dramaaa and the mystery is what kept me hooked. AND THE ENDING TWIST… MY JAW WAS ON THE FLOOR! Overall not a book I’d immediately pick but super glad I read it!
I have always loved Ina, so when Ashley picked this one out for book club, I was excited to say the least! Throughout the book she discusses fate and destiny and I was loving every second of it. I did learn about some of her flaws (like every human has) that I never knew before. She blows through money because she has it to spend and when she didn’t have it to spend she was a pretty young white girl that had the means to get more money anyways. Like I said love Ina down but like you have to point these things out when you see them another thing is that I feel like she’s just trying to find a ‘poor me’ card with her childhood so people could try to relate to her more bc she was so rich lmao
Some other tidbits from the novel:
- Ina the pilot wtf I love how Jeffery was like oh if she’s flyin im doing it too
- Okay she just brushed over the fact that she lived in Thailand with a random family from a guy she met on an airplane?? How long was this 😭
- SHE WAS A CLERK AND SECRETARY AT A STRIP CLUB DJSKKS
- Why am I tearing up? I didn’t know Jeffery and Ina had a separation wtf
- Jeffery saying he would go see a therapist for herrr my heart
- A STORE THAT HAS 150 DIFFERENT MUSTARDS I NEED TO GO
Overall the Synesthesia making Isobel a ‘witch’ is a very cool concept. I’m glad that it ended in a happy-ish ending bc for a while there my girl was going through the trenches.
- the time skips kinda confuse me
- Nat was a total cutie and I would’ve fell for him too like kinky and and author what could be better BUT HE WAS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE
- Hated that they took savages’ land
- Mercy is iconic
- The fact that captain darling went and paid all of Edwards investors so Isabel would not be in debt 🥺 a tru man
This book was so cringy but like ya know what if ppl like it go off ig! I was waiting for it to get like romancy or smutty and it literally didn’t it was just about this lady opening her coffee shop 🥲 there’s little plot and zero tension building. Cute and small things happen, but there’s not a ton of action going on and I don’t love that with a book. It was shorter in length and the author narrated the audiobook with lots of animation so I did enjoy that!
Thoughts:
- the king making his 9yr old son try to win a lady’s hand over is crazy work
- Odysseus mentionnn
- They are already obsessed with each otherrr
- Oh this is so cutesy
- Beginning of chapter 6 my heart is about to bust open
- How are they only 12 I thought they were at least teenagers wtf
- The atmosphere of this book is so immersive it’s hard to put down
- FINALLY A SMOOCHHHH PG100
- ACHILIES SLEPT WITH A WOMAN
- I would know him blind 🥺
- WHY WOULD PATROCULOUS HAVE SEX WITH HER
- “Perhaps you should get some new stories so I don’t fucking kill myself from boredom” I audibly laughed out loud
- Achilles is so DUMB
- “You care for him more in death then in life” SHIT MY EYES ARE WATERING
- Achilles son is so fucking annoying
- His mom putting his name on the tomb 🥺
