the best and worst books i've read so far this year 📖✨

five centimeters per second i loved this manga highly recommend

after reading a little life and having that book just like traumatized me honestly in a lot of ways

beautiful world where are you sally rooney's other book which i also did not like at all below normal people it wasn't good in my opinion

before the coffee gets called by toshikazu kawaguchi this is a very short book about a coffee shop that allows you to time travel it's beautiful i adored it

i adored convenience store woman by sayaka morata this was such a short fantastic read definitely worth picking up

if you watched my i read five books to try and become that girl video then you know how i feel about conversations with friends and that is like the polar opposite of how i felt about normal people and in my opinion conversations with friends is truly just a better normal people

from blood and ash by jennifer l armentrout this was atrocious i don't have another word for it

because i read this earlier this year before the show came out to prepare for the show watch the show adored that too but this series is just a new all-time favorite too so yes i love heartstopper if you still haven't read it you really should

let us believe in the beginning of the cold season by furufair this is a collection of poetry my favorite collection of poetry i have ever read now just one of my favorite books ever i adored this highly recommend

it is honestly not my favorite book i've ever read but i said this in the video where i did the vlog for it too it is i think one of the best things i've ever read even though it was miserable to actually read

i still don't really like the show very much because i just i don't like the story of normal people all that much

this was a book that i was definitely anticipating i was excited to read because i loved red white and royal blue however again this one felt a little bit flat to me in terms of like the characters and their development it just wasn't my favorite i think again i gave this one three stars it was okay

i loved red white and royal blue

first slammed by colleen hoover i despised this book absolutely despised it

i am obsessed with this book is howl's moving castle and studio ghibli in book form and i know hal's moving castle is a book but no this feels like the studio ghibli film in the best way ever it is just immaculate perfection everything i could have ever wanted it's one of my new favorite books of all time

a recent favorite but definitely an all-time favorite now is spy family i am obsessed with this series i adore it so deeply

the idiot by ilif batuman i thought that i was going to like this and then i read it and it is one of the most boring things i've ever read in my life

the picture of dorian gray absolutely a new favorite classic and something i will definitely be rereading

again if you've watched my reading 5 romance books video you know how i feel about the spanish love deception i never in my life will recover from the line i want to feel you milking me baby it still makes me laugh hysterically

the wolf and the woodsman i read this a couple of weeks ago and i really liked it and in particular i think the thing i like the most is the writing style

i have to mention yona of the dawn i have been obsessed with this series since the start of the year and it is what jump started my reading for the year so absolutely one of my favorite things i've read this year

i thought i would really like it but overall in my opinion it was just deeply okay it wasn't as emotional as i think i was expecting it to be and so for me it just felt a bit flat
