Your Dream for Me by Alison Schaffir is a Sweet, Light-hearted Read

April 14, 2023

Book cover & 3.5-star rating - YOUR DREAM FOR ME by Alison Schaffir

Your Dream for Me was such a sweet book, delivering on the promise of a lighthearted read that I had going into it. The characters grew on me with each passing chapter, and I appreciated the healthy relationship Scarlett had with her parents. They were so supportive of her and her dreams, while also setting important boundaries. Of course, Scarlett occasionally tried to bend their rules but she also had to bear the consequences. That for me was a refreshing aspect given that Your Dream for Me is a YA contemporary book.

LOLA AND THE BOY NEXT DOOR by Stephanie Perkins

September 11, 2014

LOLA AND THE BOY NEXT DOOR (Anna and the French Kiss #2) by Stephanie PerkinsWhat do you make of a book that everyone has already loved to shreds? How do you pick up those pieces and see what others saw before you? Hype has a way of bringing awareness to certain books. At the same time, it can negatively impact one’s enjoyment. Without the hype I wouldn’t have loved Lola and the Boy Next Door. With the hype, I came to feel indifferent.
