Caraval by Stephanie Garber
4.5
well, where do i begin?
this book was everything and more! it met all of my expectations 100% đź’–
i loved entering the world of caraval!
we all love a fantasy book and this was such a good one!!
i still don’t really understand how the magic works and stuff but i think i’ll figure it out in the next books :)
this reminded me sooo much of “the greatest showman” istg it was all i could think about!
i loved stephanie’s writing! it caught my attention from the very first chapters! and i would’ve finished faster if it wasn’t for my reading slump and my work lol
julian was definitely my fav character! he’s sooo sweet i love him aaahhhh ❤️‍🩹
also, him and crimson = everything to me! đź¤
the ending was so breathtaking bc it had so much information!! donatella was a mastermind tbh
can’t wait to read the next books ehehe <3

If He Had Been with Me by Laura Nowlin

slow-paced
4.0
well i don’t even know what to say about this book…
i loved it but that was things that gave me the ick idk
like the tiara ????? why would a high schooler wear a tiara on a daily basis? it doesn’t make any sense but okay i guess.
other things that pissed me off were her group of friends, she couldn’t come up with more annoying people?like please it was so obvious that sasha and jamie were having an affair! girl- u should love yourself more 🙄
the best part about this book were their childhood memories and their relationship!
the mothers were THE best, they were so funny sometimes ahahah
anyways… i don’t have much to say.. it was a good read but i expect more from this book! it didn’t make me cry just made me a little sad for them.
finny deserved so much better <3

wow. this book was everything that I hoped for.
it’s the kind of book that i’ll always remember because it touched me in so many different ways.
i know this is probably an unpopular opinion, but terms and conditions was the worst book of the series, i’m sorry. don’t get me wrong, i love declan and iris but for me rowan and zahra, cal and lana are the best couples.
i connected with both of them in distinct ways, i’ll not say why but just know that i did. <3
i love love love the second chance romance trope and this was definitely the best since it was written by our queen lauren ˗ˏˋ ♡ ˎˊ˗
i’m so sad this series is over, i think i’ll miss it forever 🥺
- - - - - - - -
kinda spoilers:
i loved the dynamic between the couples + the gc was to die for AHAH
what i loved most about this book was the relationship between cal and cami, she was for sure the best character and i cried when she asked him to officially adopt her ‹𝟹
the ending was *chef kiss*, i love that they’re all traveling and i’m glad they stick together for the good and bad parts.
this is certainly a book that i’ll always recommend to people 🤍
