This books plot makes no sense. I know the books plot the same amount as before I read it. Despite being a children's book, it was more difficult to read than adult novels.

This is one of the most bizarre book I've ever read. This is unhinged af
I would read he either books ironically.
They wear fucked up outfits and all of them are unhinged.

This book change me. It felt like I read a biography instead of a fictional story. He life is amazing, tragic, weird all at the same time.
A very heavy book but I'm recommending to my friends.

I loved this book, it deserves to be a classic but it isn't perfect.
Jo is my favourite character.
The outdated language was a bit jarring but it didn't effect the quality of the story.

Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood

Go to review page

Did not finish book.
It's awful. It was alright for the first two thirds, the chemistry was starting to get a bit good and they were kind of cute together. What ruined it for me is the strange psudo-perspetive switch, am I reading Bee's, Marie's or Levi's perspective? And when they had sex the pacing completely changed and all of a sudden it feels like Ali Hazelwood is rushing to the next sex scene.
I don't know is it because I'm a lesbian, I'm too young or this is genuinely a terrible book.

This book got me back into reading fantasy and science fiction novels. 
I usually avoid fantasy because of the over the top, boring world-building that makes the book boring and a tiresome read.
 It's actually feminist not like most depictions of strong women with a kickass female protagonist that literally destroys the patriarchy.
The only complaints I have this this book is that the ending didn't satisfy me and the magic system is a bit strange.
