Harry Potter and the Cursed Child: Parts One and Two by John Tiffany
1.0
i got this book at it’s midnight release several years ago and Jesus Christ this is one of the worst goddamn books I’ve ever read in my life. I’d give it 0 stars if i could. It’s garbage and ruins several characters, on top of being a bunch of nonsense plot wise. It’s utter shit.
With the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo
5.0
I don’t have the words to describe how much I love this book and how it made me feel. I just finished it and I’m just sitting here smiling, wishing it hadn’t ended. It’s an incredible story and Acevedo is a brilliant author. She has just such a way with words, it’s honestly some of the most beautiful writing I’ve read in a while. This book has definitely made its place in my favorites.
All-American Muslim Girl by Nadine Jolie Courtney

I read this book in one sitting (late at night, it’s now 1 am), and it was so good! I love Alia as a character and I loved seeing her come into herself and explore her religion and culture more. This book was really sweet for the most part, and honestly it made me cry in some parts. It was written in such a way that I felt the emotions Alia was feeling in a lot of scenes, her fear, her anger, her sadness, and especially her joy at finding her way and new friends. It was a really lovely book and I definitely recommend it
Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid
2.0
it fell flat, honestly, and im really disappointed bc of how i've heard people rave about it. the characters kind of all sucked if im being honest, and it was hard to tell if people were doing the interview together or separate at several points. honestly im still unsure. maybe i should give it another shot with the audiobook but it just...disappoints.
The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon
4.0
It was good! I enjoyed it overall but there are absolutely some parts that feel rushed, which feels insane to say for an 800 page book. The ending was a little (very) underwhelming I’m not gonna lie, I definitely have a few nitpicks with that but overall it was good. I loved every scene with Ead and Sabran, tbh those were the parts I cared about the most. Their dynamic is very interesting and I love Sabran’s personality.
