This Is What Happy Looks Like by Jennifer E. Smith
4.0
This was one of the most cliche books I've ever read, but it somehow set itself apart from the others. I fell in love with Graham almost as fast as Ellie did, and I related o Elle far more than I expected to. I really didn't expect to fall into this story so hard but once I had I was hard to get up. It was great and I want to move to Henley! And go want a Graham Larkin! Loved it! Can't wait to read Smith's other stuff!
East of Eden by John Steinbeck

SPOILERS AHEAD
This book was a roller coaster of gratuitous detail, unnecessary characters, and BEAUTIFUL LANGUAGE. While some of it was a slog to get through, I enjoyed it so much more than I thought I would. It was very genuine in its unlikely events. I fell in love with some of the characters and was sorry to see some
of them go.
I was near tears when Sam Hamilton died.
I thought there were many, many very important and very relevant themes displayed in this book that shocked me and made me think. It's definitely a time consuming read, but a worthwhile one as well. Some of the lines had me sighing because they were so poetic. One of my favorites, from Chapter 5 was: "Tom bruised himself on the world and licked his cuts."
