📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:

#ThirtyfirsthBookOf2024 #Arc

I want to thank the publisher, author, and booksirens for granting my request to read this book for free in exchange for my honest opinions.

When I read the synopsis of the book, I immediately wanted to read this book because all the craze about multiverses just hit me since Dark Matter and Parallel left me craving more books with similar themes. So, cheers to reading more books about multiverses 🍻🥂!

Jonas and Sonja's relationship was so cute, and I totally get the feeling when you think you've met the 'One', that one person that totally gets you, that person that loves your quirks, that one person that just loves you 😍. I love love 💕, I am such a hopeless romantic, but I enjoyed their relationship, and particularly how they were so sure that they wanted to make their relationship long-term (marriage) despite their young age!

But that's the problem: how do you do long term with a person who doesn't share the same universe with you? 😳So the solution to this problem is:

1. Think about how funny it is that in the whole of your city, you couldn't find a person to love, but you had to love a person from an entire different universe 😂.

2. Gather your best friends and tell them about your theory, guessing they didn't take it well.

3. Watch enough conspiracy theories.

4. Tell your best friends to open a portal to another universe to see your boyfriend.

Anyway, that is about that; the important thing is that you broke space and time to see your boyfriend. Initially, I found it cute that Sonja and Jonas had the same letters, but the whole characters had the same arrangement: Tresa and Aster , Roan and Nora.

I found SJ's parents very very toxic and it is really weird, and about 5 chapters or so into the ending, I felt like I was missing something.

Above all, I love the book, and I will be on the lookout for more of Hope Bolinger's work😍😍.

📖RATINGS: 4 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐

📖QUOTES:

□Relationships require sacrifice, but I’d like to believe it’s both people compromising. Both people being willing to give up something for each other.

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...

HAS ANYONE SEEN MY HUSBAND BY KATHLEEN WHYMAN

📖 BOOK TITLE: HAS ANYONE SEEN MY HUSBAND? 📖AUTHOR: KATHLEEN WHYMAN 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #154thBookof2024 I love this book, the humor! The drama! And the mystique surrounding Scott and his numerous problems. I can't believe Marie and his ex-wife married this guy. Scott is an a$$hole, and he deserves to be treated as such. Those poor innocent kids 😩. While humor was a big part of the novel, this book shines a light on serious topics such as infidelity, gaslighting, serial lying, and paternal irresponsibility towards children, just to say the least. I had so much fun laughing while reading this book and gained awareness of how lies and subtle gaslighting build up! What Scott did is unacceptable! And my heart goes out to all the things he did to the women he was with; what a gag🤮🤢. And yes, there is a love interest 🥰🥰🥰. 📖 RATINGS : 5 STARS ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: MIDNIGHTS WITH YOU

📖BOOK TITLE: MIDNIGHTS WITH YOU 📖AUTHOR: CLARE OSONGCO 📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: #151stBookOf2024 Midnights With You is incredibly painful and sad—I say painful because it shines a light on the amount of harm that painful parent-child relationships cause on children and young adults. Upon seeing the cover, I was expecting a young adult romance, and I didn't even read the synopsis, so I was so shocked to discover the content. It was extremely painful to read and witness what was happening to Deedee, who felt so lost, so unloved, carrying all the shame and guilt all for no reason. Before reading, please ensure you read the trigger warnings, and I am going to add it to my review: This story contains on-page depictions of a parent being emotionally abusive, slapping, depression, grief, and racism. It also mentions the off-page death of a parent and off-page domestic violence and contains a brief scene of on-page sexual harassment. This is the kind of story...
