Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo
5.0
I’m kicking my self for taking so long to finish this, because how everything comes together in the end was just so good I couldn’t put it down! I loved Six of Crows, and I can definitely see how Leigh Bardugo’s writing grew and changed going into this novel compared to the Shadow and Bone trilogy. This was a whole new level, the world building was better, the characters were more complex, and the relationships and banter between them all was so good!! I haven’t read a lot of multiple POV books so I think it took me a little bit to get used to the switching of characters perspectives but it was also so neat to uncover more details and information through each of them. There were so many twists and turns at the end, every time I thought things were getting to a calm point again there was another surprise waiting! Will definitely be starting Crooked Kingdom immediately!
Kraai & koninkrijk by Leigh Bardugo

I loved this book so much!! Six of Crows was great but this was another level. This one got me quite emotional at the end, and I now understand the hype for Kaz Brekker. He is insane and I love him!! The only draw back for me personally was that I think the multiple POVs with so many characters made it hard for me to read this a quickly as I wanted, it took me a while to finish it, but it was definitely worth it!!!
When He Was Wicked by Julia Quinn

I absolutely loved this! It was definitely a slow burn but worth it in the end. I’ve been waiting a while to know Francesca’s story and I enjoyed it very much. The second epilogue is also so sweet!!
It's In His Kiss by Julia Quinn
5.0
This has definitely been my favorite Bridgerton book, Hyacinth is so confident and outspoken and a little bit crazy, and I love her so much. I loved the treasure hunt aspect of the story too! And Gareth is wonderful and is an equal match to Hyacinth, and “more, Gareth” always
Beach Read by Emily Henry
5.0
I loved this book so much. It was exactly what I needed as my vacation read. I had heard so many good things and the title seemed obviously fitting. This book made me laugh, and made me cry, and it absolutely made me fall in love with Gus and January. Their bantering and flirting was wonderful! I love them so much. I’m also super curious to read the books they the characters are writing during this story, the had me intrigued as much as the book itself. Definitely one of my favorite books I’ve read this year and would highly recommend to anyone and everyone! Everyone needs some Gus Everett in their lives!
On the Way to the Wedding by Julia Quinn
4.0
I enjoyed this book, but not quite as much as the previous stories in this series. It was definitely a slow burn, and the story did not quite go the way I had imagined, the ending takes an exciting turn, but I did enjoy getting to know the characters of Gregory and Lucy. I loved Hyacinth’s little role, she is still my favorite Bridgerton! Over all I really enjoyed this whole series and look forward to reading more by Julia Quinn!
The Bridgertons: Happily Ever After by Julia Quinn
5.0
I read all the second epilogues with each of the books since they came with the kindle versions I bought and I really enjoyed getting to check in with the characters years later. I decided to get the get the whole Happily Ever After book to also read Violet’s story and it was really sweet. I would have loved her to have her own book and to have a longer story of her and Edmund, but I loved getting to read how the met and fell in love. Overall I really loved this whole series!
The Love Hypothesis by Ali Hazelwood
5.0
I love this book SO. FREAKING. MUCH!!!!! It was so sweet (with a nice bit of spicy toward the end), it had me gushing, giggling, and grinning throughout the whole book! I know this book started as a Reylo FanFic but you absolutely do not have to be a Star Wars or Reylo fan to enjoy this book. It has some wonderful nods to the Reylo fandom, but also some from Pride and Prejudice, Star Trek, and even The Office. It has some of my favorite troupes and I think Ali Hazelwood did such a fantastic job with writing them, I loved that the main characters at times are even totally aware that they are living out those troupes. I loved Olive, she is smart and funny and strong, though a bit clueless sometimes, but really in the cutest ways. And Dr. Adam Carlsen, man oh man, he is so fine!! I mean it's a character based on Ben Solo played by Adam Driver, what more could I ask for. I 1000% recommend this book if you are looking for a fun read and a great book. I can't wait to read more from Ali Hazelwood soon!
