it was wildly heart-wrenching and painful at times but it has such an immensely strong impact that no matter what you'll never forget the book and the way that it made you feel
it could have been condensed a bit could have shed a few pages but i still really enjoyed the story and felt like it was pretty unique
and then obviously the worst book is bridge of clay
it's got a video game aspect that i really love it's got a really interesting friendship that develops into more of a romantic relationship and it talks about online harassment which i really loved that aspect of it
you all know i despise this book i despise levana in general and this book i felt like was trying to make me feel bad for her
i think there are two contenders for the best on this shelf and that's geekerella and the astonishing color of after
i mostly just found the plot of this one to be rather lackluster like things happen but they weren't really engaging it didn't really like hold my attention the whole way through
it's a top-tier book and it crushed me with all its crushing power
this was a well-paced story and i really loved the concept but overall i had quite a few issues with this one
i just remember being capital m a d about the pairing that ends up happening in this book that end game had me mad and because i was so upset about that it kind of overshadowed everything else within the book
rita has such a gift of exploring stories in such a real way obviously they explore real events hello historical fiction but her writing makes you feel like you are experiencing these events through the eyes of a real character
my favorite on this shelf is between shadow of the fox and truthwitch
it came into my life and ruined my life in the best way possible it made me appreciate the grisha universe a lot more
i feel like this is pretty different compared to sanderson's other books but it still maintains that high quality work that goes into the world building and i highly appreciated that
this one just kind of felt like it was grasping for plot lines to pull in to keep it going and i could have done without it
i had a hard time getting through it and i don't fully remember how i felt about it back when i first read it i just remember being like ugh this is so slow i'm having a hard time getting through it
it's a book that i thought was a lot of fun but i also recognize all the flaws it has
it's just such a great story with lots of ghosty vibes great friendship elements we've got a great grandfather granddaughter relationship that i really love and it also kind of explores grief in a really interesting way highly recommend the archived
it's just such an incredibly moving story and sure it had me grabbing for the tissues as i was sobbing
this book slayed me it stole my heart and didn't give it back and my heart now rest in this book
when i've reread this book i still love it what can i say it's iconic
it's got a nice fairy tale vibe to it kind of brings in a little bit of a hocus pocus feel but overall i just felt like i wanted more from it
i enjoyed it but it didn't like blow my mind and overall it was a bit overdrawn for my taste
this book though criminally underrated i think i've read it two or three times now and each time i reread it i enjoy it even more
it impacted me so strongly i love this freaking book and i still feel like if i were to read it today it would take the cake and eat that cake
i'm gonna go with want by cindy pawn i have chosen you are wanted i want you a squad of characters fighting for justice in a futuristic version of taipei from let's go
this is the sequel to winger this book right here which i also have a lot of issues with
but i think there were aspects in the plots that could have been explored more in fact i think that's my main problem with this book is the overall plot like i felt like it just needed a little bit more it needed a punch and it never got to that punch point
