BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: BLACK CAKE

📖AUTHOR: CHARMAINE WIKERSON

📖BOOK TITLE: BLACK CAKE

📖GENRE: HISTORICAL FICTION

📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:

#LetterB of my alphabet challenge #FirstBookOf2024

This book is heartbreaking, very sad. I kept wondering how bad things will get but I didn't expect that much to happen to Covey Or should I say Eleanor. Covey suffered a lot like a lot but I am glad that at the end she did have a happy life.

Not many people will do what Gilbert Grant did for love, to change your entire life just for one person is huge and I am so happy that that one person was so worth it. I LOVE LOVE❤❤

I found BENNY to be insensitive, she dwelled to much on herself than others. Her found her brother's(Bryon) character way much better.

What i didn't like was Covey waited until the very last moment for her to tell her family the truth(what happens when you live a lie for too long, it becomes your truth😪).

This book was very sad, so many secrets 😥😭😭

A fan of Historical Fiction, I recommend this book!

BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: DARK MATTER

📖 BOOK TITLE: DARK MATTER 📖 AUTHOR: BLAKE CROUCH 📖 THOUGHTS&OPINIONS : #LetterD of My Alphabet Challenge #FourteenthBookOf2024 So this novel followed the story of Jason Densen. Jason is a scientist and has been trying to put a macro object in superposition; in other words, Jason was trying to figure out if we can access other timelines other than our own. But that dream was cut short when he decided to settle down, have a family, and be responsible. He left his passion for scientific research in order to have a family, which is pretty cool if you ask me 💕. So it starts getting interesting when Jason1 gets kidnapped 😮 mysterious, right? I am not going to say who kidnapped him, but if you have read the book, I am guessing you were as shocked as me when you found out. It turns out there are multiple versions of Jasons, and it turned bloody real quick. This book was nothing I expected. I was terrified to say the truth. I heard that there ...

FROM ONE TO FIVE

Another Saturday, another bookish rant😂😊. Welcome to another chapter of weekly special book lovers 📚😍. The star rating system: a simple way to sum up our thoughts on a book, or an outdated habit that's due for a change? The other day I saw a post on Instagram about whether book reviewers still made use of "stars" when reviewing books, and I was compelled to make this a topic on my book segment! So the question is, 'Do reviewers and generally book lovers still make use of stars when reviewing books?' As a book reviewer myself, I love making use of stars, and I will never stop making use of them except a better system comes up for scaling books 😂. It is also true that I correct my ratings accordingly. What do I mean by this? This is what I mean: when rating books, I go by my mood and excitement after completion of the book, and I immediately rate books. I may look back on my emotions after reading a particular book and correct my ratings. I recently...
