Sadie by Courtney Summers
2.0
This book probably wasn’t bad but I just can’t get on with audiobooks and I tried again but it wasn’t for me. I get so lost and miss so much info that by the end I had no clue really what was happening and couldn’t have cared less. I should have just stopped but after reaching the halfway mark I couldn’t bare the thought of DNFing without anything to show for the time I’d wasted. Maybe I will pick up the book one day??
Where She Went by Gayle Forman

Honestly, it took me a long time to get into this book. Don't get me wrong, once I'd finally become more interested in the storyline, halfway through the book, I thought it was relatively good. It just wasn't what I expected. After reading If I Stay and thinking it was a great book, I had already got this book down in my head as being just as good. On the whole it was good, just a little disappointing and I would've liked to have been into it more nearer to the beginning.
Me and Earl and the Dying Girl by Jesse Andrews
1.0
I genuinely started off this book absolutely loving it! I thought it was cleverly written, interesting AND I'd read 1/4 of it in one night.
Then things kind of went down hill...
I only read short snippets at a time for a few days and by then I'd lost all the excitement I had for it at the start HOWEVER, I soon got back into it and it was a good book.
Saying this, near the end things just seemed to get, well, boring. I wasn't enjoying reading it that much but I felt I had to because I'd loved the start of the book and wanted to know what happens!
When I had like 100 pages left, I sat down at 10pm and just thought man, I wanna finish this god damn book. I wanna get it over with and start a new one. So... I read - well technically skimmed.
Okay a lot skimmed.
I basically didn't read the last 100 pages. I made sure I knew what was going on and yeah there were certain sections that interested me but apart from that, it felt like a chore to read this book.
Not great, not a favourite but, okay I guess.
