⭐⭐⭐⭐
Holly was a child star on a hit 90's children's TV show. Somehow all her castmates went on to have amazing star studded careers, while shes been stuck trying to figure out her life. Now the 25th anniversary for the show has been announced and Holly was NOT invited. As she makes her way to New York for the show, Holly learns what true happiness is, what really matters in life, and may even find some romance along the way.

Peddler410 I started reading this when it first came out—never finished. Each time I weed out my bookshelves, this one stays because I love the creative format. Someday I will get back to it. 5y
introvertedbooks @Peddler410 it's a very interesting format for sure. Im not 100% sure I like it. I can understand why you have hesitated to pick up the other two. 5y

I dont even know how to express my feelings about this one. A story about Tennesse Williams and his assistant/lover Frank Merlo as well as a Swedish actress they meet one week in Italy. I loved that we got to follow Tenn/Frank/Anya in Italy, Tenn/Frank at the time of Frank's illness and Anya in her 70's and the secret script of Tenns she has kept hidden for years. Great historical fiction!

Im so glad I picked this book from @Tiffanywrites2 list of books. Not only was it super enjoyable but I loved the characters and the world Nnedi Okorafor created. I cant wait to read the next one. Sunny has always been unique, shes albino but once she learns shes a free agent, she is introduced to a whole new world and is assigned a task that might get her and her friends killed. #newyearwhodis

First book of the year finally finished and glad it's starting with such a bang. I loved this wonderful story about friendship and survival. Rome, Lux and Mercy are from Cottonwood Hollow, a small town with talented girls. As their lives become more complicated, the girls must learn how to lean on each other and trust that they will always have each other.

This book is Chewy approved! A great story about growing up, figuring yourself out and just how important friendship is. I really enjoyed this one. I really loved that Sebby and Jeremy were gay but that wasnt the focus of the story. It just seemed normal. If you've slept on this one, pick it up it really is great! #sleeperreads

The Forest Queen | Betsy Cornwell

Mehso-so

This book was okay. Not the greatest retelling of Robin Hood ever told. There was some gender swapping that I felt didn't always work. Some characters were reimagined. Idk. I kept waiting for the story to dive into stealing from the rich to help the poor and that felt like a subplot. It mainly felt like it was about falling in love. Plus there was weird incest vibes. This one just didn't do it for me and makes me sad bcuz I was so excited for it.

CouronneDhiver That‘s a shame .. the cover is great! 5y

What to Say Next | Julie Buxbaum

David is not the cool kid. He has trouble with social cues and is just trying to survive high school, that is until his crush Kit sits at his lunch table. Kit's father has just recently died and shes having trouble adjusting to life without him. Something draws her to David. The only issue is each doesn't know what to say next! Love meets grief and how to overcome it all. Loving this cute story about two quirky people coming together.

Peddler410 I bought this at the start of summer, then my dad died, now I‘m not sure if I should read it just yet. 5y
introvertedbooks @Peddler410 the author does a really great job of dealing with the subject of grief. It may really help you but only read it when you are ready. The subject of her fathers death is a somewhat main point 5y

I'm not sure how I feel about this one. There were some good parts and some that were just bad. It was almost too twisty and some parts seemed super random to just try and throw in a twist. Either way im glad I read it but also glad to be done with it.
