The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab
5.0
What an absolutely gem of a book.
The writing style is comforting, and painful, and the way it is written makes me think of all the lives in the past and it makes me wonder, and look to the stars and just gaze upon them.
I found this book relatable in so so many ways. Addie and Henry, and many other characters in this book, have wishes and needs and pleads and each one of them is looking or asking for something and it ignites something in me.
When Addie LaRue says she wants to live in freedom, I thought “same” and how easily I would have fallen into that damn trap if this were all real. I long for freedom, for living without end.
When Henry says he feels all directions are pulling him and not one thing/direction/goal truly speaks to him, calls to him it is so utterly relatable. I don’t want to choose to do one thing, I want to experience dozens or lifes in the time of one. I want to study and learn so many paths instead of just one.
My heart was going through the motion.
In a way this book is all story, no action but at the same time I felt as if I could barely breath while reading. It kept me on my toes, it kept me hooked throughout its pages and I am not sure how I can let this book and these characters go?
I just absolutely loved this book and damn I loved Luc with my whole heart. I think he was my favorite.

They Both Die At The End by Adam Silvera

Ugh.
I am crying my whole heart out.
I liked the concept. I liked the characters.
What a great book to read and cry over.
What I perhaps liked most were the small chapters in between where random people had a chance to narrate and mentioned a certain scene we just saw with Mateo and/Rufus or are about to see.
I also liked the way each character had a direct influence on the other characters, since the gang with no name hit the car with the celebrity and that killed him.
I also have a gut feeling Victor is the one to hit Rufus, since he is speeding on his way to Delilah, but I guess we’ll never know.

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz
5.0
I thought I wouldn’t love this one as much as I did, but god.
This book was relatable and heartfelt. It was heartbreaking and touching and it got emotions and thoughs across so extremely well. I found everything believable and relatable and it was just a beautiful book.
Not to mention the gay romance in it, taking a while to take shape which made me beg so desperately for it but it was all worth the while.
This one absolutely deserves 5/5 stars
