The Whitechapel Fiend by Cassandra Clare
3.0
This one was fun but not at all my favourite. I loved getting to see some POV's from Tessa and the gang from the Infernal Devices but when it returned back to Simon's part I got, dare I say, bored.
The Evil We Love by Robin Wasserman, Cassandra Clare
3.0
To be honest, I really don't care one bit for Robert Lightwood or how the whole Circle started up. We learned about it in TMI, I don't need to be reminded of it again. But Simon's part was fun!
Bitter of Tongue by Sarah Rees Brennan, Cassandra Clare
2.0
I'm not sure if I disliked this one so much because it just wasn't good or because I'm in a really funny, emotional mood today. But either way, it's a 2 stars from me.
Leveled by Jay Crownover
4.0
3.5 Stars
I actually read my first physically book (Well, Novella) and it felt so good to be reading again. Leveled was a great, fun, entertaining and completely sexy read. Jay Crownover wrote 2 non-stereotyped gay guys who fell in love. My biggest issue was probably the editing, something I've notice the US publisher does badly due to reading previous books they've published.

You Were Mine by Abbi Glines
4.0
Oh, my cuteness overload.
This was so damn good. Bethy and Tripp are honestly one of the best couple ever, never thought their story would be so heart-wrenching. Beautiful story, beautiful ending.

Under the Lights by Abbi Glines
4.0
3.5 STARS!
I was really looking forward to the second instalment in 'The Field Party' series since I loved the first book so much. Under The Lights is told in 3 perspectives: Willa, Gunner and Brady. In all honesty I was very much worried with the book being told in 3 POV's, mainly because I knew we'd be getting a love triangle and they're only good when they're amazingly written. And Abbi Glines presented hers well enough that I did like it. Willa is a fiercely loyal character, same with Brady. But Gunner. Gunner is misunderstood. He's trying to find himself in a place he knows he no longer belongs and that's just....sad.
But there was one thing that took from the entire book - It's so damn dramatic. And that's saying something as Abbi does drama so well. It wasn't just one thing coming out at a time, it was more one thing happened and then 2 seconds later something even more dramatic is revealed. I got lost in the fictionalised soap opera I was reading. And not in a good way.
