Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling
Did not finish book. Stopped at 57%.

I really wanted to read this series, but I felt like I was more forcing myself to read it rather than actually enjoying it. 

Torment by Lauren Kate
Did not finish book. Stopped at 9%.

I barely gave this one a chance tbh, and I do plan to come back to it. I just got so burnt out from my reading binge I needed a break.

I love this series, I’ve read it more than 4 times, I simply can’t get enough of it, it’s my second favorite manga and top favorite romance manga, the characters are amazing, I was crying on all the emotional parts, squealing when all the romance parts came and just ugh chefs freaking kiss.

Minor: Death of parent

The story does mention that one of the characters lost their parent, so I put it here just in case.

I have all 34 volumes. I loved this series. Top freaking favorite manga. Eren has my freaking heart. This was exactly my cup of tea.

Content Warnings

Moderate: Hate crime, Death of parent, Death, Genocide, Injury/Injury detail, Murder, Violence, Blood, and War

The tags I listed definitely sound scary, the series does contain everything I listed, not all in the first book, I just am too lazy to rate each of the 34 books so I marked it on the first book of the series. This series is brutal though, not for the weak minded, it’s amazing though, good luck.

Captivate by Carrie Jones

I did like this book, i honestly had just fell into a book slump in July and never came back to it.

Hopeless by Colleen Hoover

Loved this book, I read it in 2 days and found my self wanting to tab every page. I loved how the characters interacted, I love how I cried when the main character cried, this is a read I’d recommend to others.

Content Warnings

Moderate: Fire/Fire injury

The main character has been thru an accident where she was mainly scarred and a lot of the book is her learning to accept her scars and gain back her confidence and love for herself.
