Gangsta Fever by Skynova

5.0

 This book is so good. like how they all know of each other but no one has been in the same circle. The only character that I truly don't like is that damn Logan. The way the book ended I'm hoping Shantel make it out on top, bc Champ didn't. But Ry freaky dirty snake , North need to handle his ass accordingly.

Okok where do I start. I haven’t picked up the Ethic series in a couple years and this man still makes me fall for him every time 🥴. Alani got to really love Ethic bc I don’t know how!! Morgan story just works my nerves. I was thinking a little more drama and a cliffhanger would’ve been chefs kiss bc I know Messiah up to something.

Onyx Storm by Rebecca Yarros

4.5

Ain’t no wayyyy this book ends like that!! It’s so much to unpack from this book. All that hard work to find the cure just for them not to find it and play us with a 12 hr lapse and end the book. Violet and Zandan were just horney goats.

Legendborn by Tracy Deonn

4.0

 This book took me a minute to adjust too. I not to fun of YA. But the whole concept was good. Bri the typical teen, dealing the loss of her mom, going to a new school, liking boys and find the truth of what and who she really is. 

A Walk in the Park by Rebekah Weatherspoon

 A fun and easy read! I loved all the drama in this book—crushes, breakups, lies, and best friends competing for the same girl, the trifling baby daddy. I definitely didn’t expect all this from the title! 

Stranded by Shukri R. Abdi, Chris Bruno, David Howard Lee

3.0

 This audible book had so much going on, I couldn't even focus. But a cute little read about best friends. 

Lila by Naima Coster

3.5

 Super easy read. Straight to the point. From friends to inclination. I like how this books talks about the loss of a friendship. Some friendships can end worse than a breakup. But she made the best choice for her because Lila was NOT a good friend
