I wanted to give this much more love, much more attention. Had I read it when I was younger, I might appreciate it better.
The reading experience was not too bad, but at some points—annoyed. I had to perpetually remind myself that this is written from a seventeen year old boy point of view, who was in a process of transitioning..evolving into an adult —discovering his needs and wants. And he met Oliver, a whole adult, his summer guest. He likes him. Obsessing over him and the idea of the intimacy.
I too, was seventeen once and I’m sure I was that annoying. Possibly similarly annoying, passionately, stupidly smitten..crushing hard on someone.
I finally gets why this one has gotten praises. Beautifully written, even in disturbing parts, awakening but not my five stars read.

Nothing much, not earth-shattering, motivational or whatsoever but it’s such a comfort read. The way he talks about individuality, running and writing. Straightforward and honest.
An impactful one. This is for Black History month read. Of slavery's destruction of identity. Beloved explores the physical,emotional,and spiritual devastation wrought by slavery, that continues to haunt even in freedom.
“Freeing yourself was one thing; claiming ownership of that freed self was another.”
The brutal truth,exceptionally written. Important read that will stick with me for a long,long time I believe.
Provocative and complex. Motherhood angst from a different, unnatural even— side. Devoured 146 pages in a day because the relativity had taken me aback— one after another.
“A child, yes, is a vortex of anxieties”.

Another tiktok find and if hate is not a strong word i think i'd use this on this one. Ok i get how the male lead needs to be hateful, living up to his name and a Grade-A jerk but he's being mean,rude and condescending TO his love interest and nope that's not the worst part of it, I reached my boiling point when she TOOK it all casually.
