Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - Parts One and Two by J.K. Rowling
5.0
Oh my! Even before starting this book I knew it wouldn't be as intense and detailed as the rest of the books as its a play; but it was absolutely fantastic! It was amazing and MAGICAL!! Once I started reading the story I just couldn't stop. While reading I just kept thinking on how they would portray everything on stage live. I am sure this book brought back so many emotions and memories of childhood for everyone and now I don't know how I'm gonna live knowing there aren't anymore HP books. I NEEEEDDD more Harry Potter in the world!! Hands down the BEST SERIES TO EVER EXIST!!
P.S. I need to try and find a way to see the play now..lol

Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins
4.0
Lola and the Boy Next Door was the prefect read for summer. It was adorable. Personally, I like it a little better than Anna and the French Kiss, Anna’s story was a little slow for me but still good while Lola’s I felt more engaged in and more fast paced than Anna’s. One of the best thing in the book was how we got to see Anna and St. Clair’s story grow further. Stephanie Perkins is one of the best contemporary authors and her writing style is so distinctive and amazing. You can’t help but love all the characters she writes *cough…cough* Cricket and St. Clair!!

This Is Where It Ends by Marieke Nijkamp

Beautiful yet heartbreaking.
This book captivated me from the first page to the last. It tells a story of terror that takes over the school and is told from four different prescriptive. It is definitely a short book and can be finished in one sitting. The story itself feels so realistic and horrific so it captivates the audience instantly. At the end, I had tears running down my face. The only think I would have liked to know more is the motive behind the attack, we get some part of it but I would have liked more details. Overall, this book was fantastic and a must read.

Full of dreams, hope and bursting with romance!
This book gave me all the warm fuzzies. It's a beautiful contemporary novel set in a beautiful city. I loved every page of it. I fell in love with Josh along with Isla, and can we just talk about Anna and St. Clair!! Swoon... Stephanie Perkins is a contemporary goddess. I need more of her of books...

Stone Cold Touch by Jennifer L. Armentrout
4.0
I’m just gonna start by saying I don’t like Abbot and I will forever be Team Roth! Fine, maybe I swooned a little tinsy bit for Zanye but Roth is endgame. I can’t tell if the ending surprised me or not cause me being stupid flipped to the last page of the book and read the last line and BAM there went the major twist. Note to self: DON’T DO THAT AGAIN! Anyways Armentrout never fails to surprise me with her writing. Overall, it was beautiful and riveting read. I can’t wait to see what mayhem occurs in the next book.
White Hot Kiss by Jennifer L. Armentrout
4.0
Seriously Armentrout's writing never fails to amaze me. I was swallowed by this book form the beginning and now I am here in the middle of night bawling my eyes out. The way she writes is so captivating. The book had a great storyline with full of surprises. The world about gargoyles and demons is definitely something I've never read before. I liked how Layla's character seemed to grow stronger throughout the book. Roth was definitely my favorite in this book. There are no words for him, he's just awesomeness. Zayne's character kind of felt plain to me, maybe it was because we didn't get to know him much. Overall, it was super fast and easy read. I mean anything Jennifer writes is WOW.
"I lost myself the moment I found you.” That line just punched me on the gut!!

Something in Between by Melissa de la Cruz
3.0
3.5/5
Something in Between is such a powerful book. It's definitely eye-opening. Seeing Jasmine struggle felt so real. One moment she was living the American Dream and then the next it came crashing down on her. It was captivating to see her life as it went on this crazy rollercoaster. I personally am an immigrant, though I came legally I can relate to Jasmine when she feels torn between two countries and the constant feeling of belonging.
It's such an important topic and I think everyone should read about it. Even though some parts of the book annoyed the crap out of me I still enjoyed the whole 'struggle' factor of it.
