Wildflower | Drew Barrymore
Pickpick

I listened to this on audiobook because I love her voice and she narrates her book herself!
My interest in this book stemmed purely from the fact that I have been a huge Drew Barrymore fan my whole life. Riding In Cars With Boys. Charlie's Angels. The Wedding Singer. And so much more.
I cried when she talked about her dogs. Hit close to home.

Absolutely endearing and hilarious and romantic in its own unique way...just as I have come to expect from the lovely Rainbow Rowell.
The part about the nickname with the cup. HILARIOUS!
And my one spoiler related comment:
It was so funny that they slept through the whole movie! After all that build up! But the way it ended with them making a date to see another showing after getting some sleep was perfect.

Loved it...but this is one of few instances where the movie is better than the book.
Also...I really want the This Is Not A Pipe shirt.
Love Gus. Husband goals. Minus the cancer and dying.

skyeharmony Interesting! I liked both, but the book made me cry and the movie didn't, so I guess I connected more with the book. (Yeah, I think I was the only one in the theater not crying and I felt weird. And I am a thyroid cancer survivor!) 7y

I absolutely love her way with words!
I actually got an autographed copy cuz I preordered it. And I love Saves Youtube channel. Several poems in this book are performed by her on that channel.

Palo Alto: Stories | James Franco
Bailedbailed

Awful amateur and immature writing. And all the stories seemed to blend together and be about the same things. It felt very repetitive. I wanted to like it because I am a huge James Franco fan. This was a true disappointment.

One of my favorite reads of the year so far!
The family drama and secrets is what drew me in. So much background on so many characters. So many mistakes and betrayals and flawed characters. Realistic. The ending was realistic as well.

Eleanor & Park | Rainbow Rowell

Pickpick

A very adorable and emotional love story. I loved the music element and the image of the lovebirds on the bus together.
I would have given the book a full star higher rating if it had ended the way I wanted it to. (The rating I gave it was 3.5 out of 5 stars)

Anna and the French Kiss | Stephanie Perkins

Mehso-so

Cute and fun and adventurous, but problematic at times. It features one of my top 3 most hated tropes, girl on girl hate/violence.
But I overall enjoyed it and can't wait to read the two companion novels because I hear they each have things that make them better or just as good as this one. Even though I'm giving this a so so rating, I did still enjoy it. Entertainment value was high...content quality was not quite so high.

One of my favorite series of all time and this is a great start!
There are some problematic elements. Such as Stockholm syndrome. Among other things.
Also there are adult themes. X rated themes. If that would bother you, don't read this.
The second book in the series is my favorite. And one of the many reasons why is because it corrects a lot of the problems I had with this one.

Hashtag_TheAeonChronicles As a 34 year old married housewife who loves reading I was very surprised seeing this in a YA book. Mass is a great writer but I think she failed on the x rated. I found it corny and cheesy but love me some Rhys and his snarky attitude 😉 who doesn't love a smart a** right? 7y

I have read the first half of the stories. My favorites so far are The End of Love and The Last Stand At The Cinegore, the second and third stories respectively.
My least favorite so far is Sick Pleasure. I just found the story boring. Beautiful writing, though.

Magic Study | Maria V. Snyder

Reading Kindle version.
Poison Study came up on my Memories on Facebook the other day, which means it had been a year since I read it. Felt like a good time to finally pick up the second book. I still remember quite a bit about the first book so I opted out of a reread.
So far I've only read the first chapter.

One of my all time favorite books!
The 80s themes of music and fashion, etc sucked me in! So did the phouka aspect!
And Eddi was an awesome strong female lead!
And the introduction to this book is my all time favorite introduction to any book.

the.bookish.valkyrie This is seriously one of my favorites! Have you read Holly Black's Modern Fairytales series? The beginning of the first book reminds me of this book's beginning! 7y
ingleflarbie @ValkyrieAndHerBooks I haven't read that one but I will have to check it out if it reminds you of this one! 7y

Something Like Summer | Jay Bell, Andreas Bell
Bailedbailed

I DNF'd it. The main character was manipulative and was taking advantage of people and situations and technically took someone's car without permission which isn't okay and he talked repeatedly about getting a guy to have sex with him even though the guy very obviously and outwardly stated his not gay. A no go for me.

Snotgirl Volume 1 | Bryan Lee O'Malley

I was very underwhelmed. The plot was shallow and barely existent. I expected more from Bryan Lee OMalley.
I did however enjoy the art.
