The Nightingale by Kristin Hannah
3.0
a very well written and beautiful book it broke me because i got attached to the characters. However whil reading solething kept nagging at me and didn't let me enjoy the book which was the fact that the French were colonising Algeria at the same time, and it felt like feeling sympathie towards the enemy. It could have been a 5⭐️ but because of that it's a 3⭐️. I would say i didn't expect the ending and it made me cry so much.

Mornings in Jenin by Susan Abulhawa
5.0
Susan Abulhawa books break my heart 💔💔💔💔💔
I loved how in this book we see another facade of Palestinian men. Men who love their wives, daughters, sisters and would do anything for them. It broke my heart seeing Amal not understanding why her mother was that way and then after all the heartbreak and tragedies she went to she transformed into her mother. Honestly it was very difficult reading this book and specially the ending. Doing parallels with wars and genocides committed by Israel against Palestinians from 1948 to 1990s and between the genocide they are committing now just breaks your heart more. It means that the world failed the Palestinians constantly for 75years 💔.
If you had any doubt that this started in oct 7th go and read some books.

Sunshine Love by Bailey Hart

This was recommended to me as a very similar book to Heartless by Elsie Silver, if the same was said to you DON’T BELIEVE THEM. This has nothing to do with Heartless the only similar thing is the nanny aspect. However June is nothing like my girl Willa ! Anyway i didn’t enjoy the story npr the romance that much
An Ember in the Ashes by Sabaa Tahir

amazing !
I loved the writing (duuh) and the characters they were very different than what we are used to. I loved the actual development in the characters and now i have 1000000 questions !!
I would highly recommend. I missed reading this type of fantasy books
(Also safe for ramadan, max 2 kisses you can skip)
Girls with Bad Reputations by Xio Axelrod
2.0
Took me forever to finish this book because it was boring.
The premise is amazing, i even expected it to be Daisy Jones and the six level because of the rock stars plot line, however it lacks sooo many stuff. The whole build up around Kayla’s secret and then when she told them they were like : ok and ?
Also the romance wasn’t that good. It lacked so much Chemistry between the Characters. I felt more Chemistry between Lilly and Kayla than between Kayla and Ty lol

Bride by Ali Hazelwood
4.0
It’s been a while since i pulled an all nighter to finish a book.
Least to say i was obsessed with this book, i was bothered a bit by that one scene iykyk, it just feels like a pattern with Ali Hazelwood’s books they would be perfect until you reach the intimacy scene and it just feels uncomfortable. Anyway still i loved the book it was very entertaining and enjoyable, would recommend if you like omegaverse/PNR books ✨
