WHAT IF IT’S US by Becky Albertalli & Adam Silvera

March 22, 2019

Book cover & and 4-star rating for WHAT IF ITS US by Becky Albertalli and Adam SilveraBelieve it or not, there was a time that I loved cute romance books and adored books with meet cutes. As I hit my twenties though, I suppose I became somewhat jaded. I hardly reached for these books anymore, and when I did, I didn’t enjoy them anywhere near as much as before. Then along came What If It’s Us. I couldn’t stop smiling while reading it!

BECAUSE YOU LOVE TO HATE ME edited by Ameriie

Book cover & rating - BECAUSE YOU LOVE TO HATE ME edited by Ameriie
When I first heard of this anthology, Because You Love to Hate Me, I was extremely excited. The idea sounded so enticing and I couldn’t wait to see how the various authors would approach their prompts. With so many great people working on this, I couldn’t wait to be wowed. Needless to say, this belonged to my most anticipated reads of 2017. Sadly, I walked away with mixed feelings.

MORE HAPPY THAN NOT by Adam Silvera

March 2, 2016

Audiobook cover & rating - MORE HAPPY THAN NOT by Adam SilveraFor the month of February Hazel picked More Happy Than Not by Adam Silvera as her book recommendation for me to read. What made this round of Epic Recs different was that we specifically chose to go with audiobooks. This also meant that for once we didn’t pick books the other already owned, and so had free rein.
