The Ballad of Never After by Stephanie Garber

5.0

These stones are giving me flashbacks to Avengers Infinity War and Endgame. My heart simply cannot handle it. This is what should have happened to my dear Natasha Romanoff…

Definitely my favorite in the series! This book had me on the edge of seat the entire time. I loved the angst (I’m a sucker for it)!

Although the ending frustrated me at first, I thought the third book would be boring in comparison. Although the third book doesn’t compare, it is still much better than I expected upon finishing this one and getting an idea of what was coming next.

I Am Legend by Richard Matheson

3.0

**spoiler alert** Read this in an adaptation class. I didn't know much about what it was going in, but I enjoyed it. Except for one major part... I swear if y'all think it's funny to hurt animals in movies and books, STOP JUST STOP!

Black Widow: Forever Red by Margaret Stohl

2.5

**spoiler alert** I love Natasha Romanoff with my whole heart, so clearly this book was a no brainer for me. I feel like they strayed pretty far away from Natashas roots and background. Just my opinion… I did enjoy it. I was almost in tears at the end.

Coraline by Neil Gaiman

4.0

I adore the movie so I wanted to jump into the book. Its a quick and fun read and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoyed the movie!

It’s a rarity for me to say such things, but I do believe I enjoyed the movie better. Not sure if its because I had watched it before reading the book or what. 

Unwrap Me by Natalia Lourose

fast-paced

2.0

literally just plotless smut. Read this in one night. For what it was, it was pretty good! Would I recommend this to someone? No. Only because then they would know I have read it and I am thoroughly embarrassed enough having this on my good reads account with my like 3 followers.

People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry

slow-paced

2.0

It was cute, but felt really slow. It kept dragging on and I don't think I could have finished it without the audiobook. The third act breakup made me so mad... Sad that this was my first Emily Henry read as now I am concerned about reading her other books. I will though, eventually.

The Lightkeeper: A Novel by Sherry Shenoda

5.0

Had to read this for a Women and Creativity course where we focused primarily on religion. We were given a large list of books we would read and I (Not a religion girly in anyway) was mortified. BUT this book was not only not terrible, I ended up loving it! WAS LITERALLY CRYING AT THE END… FOR A SCHOOL ASSIGNED BOOK… WHO IS SHE

This Woven Kingdom by Tahereh Mafi

5.0

I swear, if I didn't know who wrote this book when I picked it up, I would have guessed it was Tahereh Mafi (in every single good way). Her writing voice is just *chefs kiss*. Tahereh I love you queen! The characters are so interesting and the ending had my jaw on the ground. I am so excited and nervous to pick up the next book!

Heartstopper Volume 1 by Alice Oseman

fast-paced

4.0

This series is absolutely precious! My little gay heart wishes I had something like this as a teenager. I am VERY late to the game with these but they are quick reads and such a fun ride. I still have yet to watch the series on Netflix but after reading these I am definitely convinced

Sheets by Brenna Thummler

5.0

Its been a hot minute since I’ve read a graphic novel but this one just looked too cute to pass up. If i’m being 100% honest, yes I picked it up because of the adorable ghost on the cover. I am obsessed with ghosts… This was the cutest mix of all the feels. Mellow, adorable and sad in all the best ways! I would have ate this up as a kid the same way I ate it up now
