Christmas Tales of Terror by Chris Priestley

That last story was particularly chilling!
All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven
5.0
(Reread). I was shocked by how much of the story I remembered! It hit me so much different as I wasn’t in this dark place anymore like when I first read it- but I found myself loving the same quotes that I picked at first anyway.. and I still got a thing for damaged boy Finch.
Casse-Noisette by Sylvain Johnson

Bon mais sans plus, ce n'était pas mon preferer de la serie.
Je ne m'attendait pas a cette fin & plot twists, mais je l'ai trouver quand meme long.

Well Met by Jen DeLuca

Honestly, the first part was kinda slow to my liking.. the spicey took a while to start, and oh my did it startled me. I did not saw that coming, and neither did the MC
They do say there’s a thin line between love & hate..

Would I ever be in a renaissance faire, I would absolutely be a tavern wench! (I would in fact love to be a bartender.. but im scared of drunk guys..). While I do enjoy Captain Blackthorn’s personality on fair ground, I do agree that Simon’s « true » persona is annoying. The beef between Simon & Emily is hilarious at time

Who We Are in Real Life by Victoria Koops
As Dungeon & Dragons are being a big part of this novel, I was scared at first of not unerstanding a part of the storyline, as I’ve never played that before! However, as it’s a mild fantasy, it didn’t bothered me and I loved that story within our story. For some reason I thought this was a Graphic Novel because of the cover, but that’ okay- definately would’ve been nice to have images to the D&D quest however!

Death at Morning House by Maureen Johnson
4.5
I was flabbergasted by both twist within the story, one for each present and past. The story was structured in a way where I was in agreeance of thinking it was X character.. that when later when the truth revealed itself to us, I wasn’t prepared!

Did not finish book. Stopped at 65%.

While it was good, and I got lots of good quotes, the chapters were way too long and it was taking me ages to read 😅
Le Petit Prince by L.P. Sicard
4.0
Je n’ai pas lut le petit prince original, mais cette lecture-ci a su m’impraigner. Jlétait prise dans le livre! Il m’est été dur toutefois de voir comment la marraine traitait son neveux… horrible.
