BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: IN EVERY MIRROR SHE'S BLACK

📖BOOK TITLE: IN EVERY MIRROR SHE'S BLACK

📖AUTHOR: LOLA AKINMADE AKERSTROM

📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:

#TwelfthBookOf2024

To say I love this book would be an understatement! I loved every single thing about the book, and I wouldn't want to change a thing at all.

I am going to start with a character I disliked to an extent: Brittany-Rae. So, Brittany, what made you fall for Johnny? His inability to lie to your face or what? Or you were just looking for an excuse to leave Jamal because you couldn't get past the fact that he lied to you. You upended your life for a man you met for a few months, got married, and moved to a new country for someone you weren't sure about, solely based on the fact that he couldn't lie to you😑

I also disliked Kemi to an extent; the biggest marketing firm recruited you personally, and you accepted just because you allowed your twin sister to make the decision for you. Twin telepathy, my foot! You cheated; fucking own up to it!!

My dearest Muna, you are really inquisitive and curious, aren't you? Most people wouldn't want to share their emotional baggage with you just because you told them a couple stories of yours. I wish what happened to you didn't happen. 😪

In summary, I loved how the ladies didn't become friends; their individuality was something I appreciated😍. This book touched on manyaspects,s such as racism, tokenism, fetishism and the rest.

To the next book in the trilogy,"EVERYTHING IS NOT ENOUGH"

📖RATINGS: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐(5 STARS)

BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: REMEMBER ME TOMORROW

📖 BOOK TITLE: REMEMBER ME TOMORROW 📖AUTHOR: FARAH HERON 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #127thBookOf2024 Yes, this book is a little bonkers. This is a very unconventional love story, and you have to really get at it to grasp the story between Jay and Aleeza. You know I love everything time travel/parallel universe-related, and with each fiction book I read about this topic, my mind is blown away every single time. Yes, there's more mystery elements than the rom-com because how can Aleeza be in love with Jay, who is not even in her timeline, talk about a guy who is unavailable? I loved how put together this book was, how the mystery elements worked together; there was no point in this book that was left to assumptions; everything was explained well without being boring and overly descriptive. Overall, I really enjoyed this story, and definitely this will not be my last Farah Heron's book. 📖RATINGS: 4 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 📖QUOTES: ♤ Time isn’t linear. There are an infin...

THE REUNION BY KAYLA OLSON

📖 BOOK TITLE: THE REUNION 📖AUTHOR: KAYLA OLSON 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #155thBookof2024 I really wanted to love this; I mean, look at this stunning cover, but it is what it is, and I didn't love it 😩. It was like the author wanted to shove the love interest down my throat 😂😂. One thing this love story between Liv and Ransom did was make me cringe. I even lowkey hated the MMC's name 😩😑. The chemistry was not there, and it just felt as if Liv didn't have any other option than to date Ransom. Boy told you he wanted space; he didn't talk to you, and after so many years, he waltzed back into your life like he never left. The synopsis made it feel like Ransom was the reason Liv went into isolation 😑😑. Liv- I love your personality and your charisma, but your love story with Ransom was one I so detested 🙁. 📖 RATINGS : 2 STARS ⭐⭐ 📖🌸 READ IF YOU LIKE: 🌸 She has always loved him 🌸 Friends to strangers to lovers 🌸 Second chance romance 🌸 Hollywoo...
