I read 17 books in November and found a new all time favorite ✨ [November Wrap Up]

I was such a huge fan of big little lies when I read it by this author

what a beautiful story I will never stop thinking about this book like literally ever and it's just one of my new all-time favorites

I got about 48 pages into this one before I decided to set it aside it just wasn't really capturing my attention right away but I do plan to get back to this book at some point and give it another shot

I did really like you know like the christmy Vibes in this one but I wasn't the biggest fan of the love interest man in this book and I think it's because sometimes he would do things or say things that were like so red flags to me or like kind of gave me the ick a little bit

I really enjoyed this one I ended up giving it four stars because I just thought they were really cute together they had a lot of really cute chemistry

the second half of this book was so much better than the first half in my opinion

I just feel like for me this book was written in a way that felt very pretentious and just very obnoxious it kind of felt like one of those books that's like a dude bro book if you know what I mean

earlier this year I read Forget Me Not by Julie SoDo and I was obsessed like such a f star instant new favorite

I think my issue with this book though was that it did feel a little bit long because this book is nearly 500 pages and I just don't think there was any reason for the story to be quite that long

I can definitely see why so many people are loving this one because it really is such a thought-provoking and interesting book

I adore like I love the way that the romance was written between these two like oh my God it was the best thing ever there were so many beautiful quotes and so many Beautiful Moments that like I will never forget my experience reading this book

I also just loved the characters in this like I love them so much I feel like every single character in this book was so interesting and so well fleshed out and there was just something about the writing in this book it really just got under my skin

this is one that I also got 35 pages into and I decided to dnf it but I also feel like this might be a book that I return to in the future CU I just wasn't in the right head space to read this book when I tried to pick it up

I had a lot of fun with this book and I ended up giving it four stars just for that reason because it was very entertaining to read and it kept me entertained the whole time

I didn't connect as much with the author character in this one but I do love books that follow characters that have kind of like bookish jobs you know like I thought it was a fun time I loved the city Vibes throughout this book

I read my year of rest and relaxation and gave it five stars

I thought there were some things that I really liked about it but for the most part I felt disappointed that I wasn't loving it as much as the other book that I read from this author

there were some episodes that I found to be pretty boring and kind of slow to be honest

the freaking twists at the End of This Book were so obvious like it was just so obvious to me what was going on and I thought our main character was so oblivious and so naive and like she just would never listen to her children it was very frustrating to read from her perspective

I didn't think that there was anything shocking or interesting happening at the end of the story and by the time it ended I was like thank God it's finally over like I was so over it by then sadly this one was another two star for me

I've got to say this one has got to be like my least favorite volume in the series so far almost to the point where now I'm not even sure if I want to continue reading the series anymore

for so much of this book I was convinced that I wasn't going to like it and that it wasn't going to end up being my thing at all but then it really like tugged on my heartstrings by the end of this book
