            Hello book lovers and welcome back to my blog!     I don't have a good memory on a regular basis. So asking me if I remember every single book that I've read wouldn't end very well. I would either draw a blank...orrrrr run away from you as quick as I can. Preferably the latter. No, I'm just kidding. 😅 Or am I?     I like to reread the books that I really like or ones that I've completely forgotten about. Most of the time it's because I read it too fast and didn't absorb enough for it to stick in my brain. But just because I don't remember it doesn't mean that I hated the book. It's just that I'm a human and not a computer with over one hundred gigs of storage...though it would be cool. I reread books mostly through audiobooks. I find that I can make progress on new books but also reread the ones that I want. It's a win-win for everybody! So in no particular order, these are the books that I hope on rereading very soon. ...

       My Rating:            ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4.25)      My Thoughts:     Hello book lovers and welcome back to my blog!     My goal is to slowly make my way through all of Sarah Dessen's books and I made progress after finish The Rest of the Story . It was very cute but also pretty heavy and serious.      Emma Saylor doesn’t remember a lot about her mother, who died when Emma was twelve. But she does remember the stories her mom told her about the big lake that went on forever, with cold, clear water and mossy trees at the edges.      Now it’s just Emma and her dad, and life is good, if a little predictable…until Emma is unexpectedly sent to spend the summer with her mother’s family that she hasn’t seen since she was a little girl.      When Emma arrives at North Lake, she realizes there are actually two very different communities there. Her mother grew up in working-c...

       Hi book lovers and welcome back to my blog!     Duologies are rare. Just looking at my Goodreads shelf, there aren't that many duologies I've read. Most fantasy series tend to have three books or more, and contemporaries usually end with one. But still, I've managed to put six duologies together that I'm going to share with you today! There is a good mix of sci-fi, fantasy, and contemporary...which is very  surprising.     #6 - Just One Day  by Gayle Forman      Starting off with my least favorite duology on this list (I still enjoyed it though). Gayle Forman is an award-winning author who wrote several best-selling YA books such as If I Stay , I Was Here , and Where She Went . I haven't read her other novels but for me, The Just One Day  duology was a solid read.      When sheltered American good girl Allyson "LuLu" Healey first meets laid-back Dutch actor Willem De Ruiter at an underground perf...

       My Rating:            ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5)      My Thoughts:     Hello readers and welcome back to my blog!     W ow. For a book that's quite short, it packed a big punch! I've been in a bit of a reading slump lately and I think this book helped me to get out of it. It was a quick read but very impactful.     We follow Will as he decided to avenge his brother's death by killing Shawn's killer. But Will was fifteen and had never shot a gun in his life. He was following The Rules that his brother told him and had been passed down.     #1 - No crying     #2 - No Snitching     #3 - Always Get Revenge     Finding the gun in his brother's clothes drawer, Will got on the elevator on Floor 7. He met an unexpected guest, Buck, on Floor 6. Buck, Will found out, was the guy who gave Shawn the gun. And that same gun was missing a bullet. The next floor down, a girl came...

    Good afternoon you amazing readers and welcome back to my blog!     I keep my reading genre pretty diverse so it's going to be very  hard for today's post of picking my favorite book from each genre. I have fantasy, contemporary, paranormal, sci-fi, dystopian, historical fiction, and mystery for the genres. If I missed any, I'm sorry but they're the top ones that I can think of. If I did miss any, please comment down below because it might be something I overlooked. But I've always wanted to try this...so let's get started!     Fantasy         ~ Caraval by Stephanie Garber      Starting off with one of the hardest genres, it took me a while to go through my Goodreads shelf and see all the fantasy books I've read. Normally, I would go with the Harry Potter books but I want to pick something new and not as  popular. Though it's still pretty well-known, and that is Caraval  by Stephanie Garber.   ...
