BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: DELE WEDS DESTINY

📖BOOK TITLE: DELE WEDS DESTINY

📖AUTHOR: TOMI OBARO

📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:

#FiftyseventhBookOf2024

So Goodreads recommended this book to me because I've read "A Broken People's Playlist by Chimeka Garricks". Dele Weds Destiny tells the story of three ladies with very different lives who meet at university (and while I am aiming for that sort of friendship, I can almost say I won't have that sort of friendship as I am in my third year; anyway, back to the review; this is not about me!).

I enjoyed the stories of all three ladies, namely Funmi, Zainab, and Enitan, especially Zainab's story, because she discovered what she wanted at a very young age and went for it, so sad that the story didn't end particularly well for her.

Within the story of these three ladies, we have a wedding. Honestly, I felt there shouldn't have been a wedding in the first place, and then after the whole story about the ladies and the so-called wedding, we have a rather abrupt ending to the book.

So here I am wondering how or where the wedding and the ladies stories merged?

📖RATINGS: 3 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...

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 The star rating system: a simple way to sum up our thoughts on a book, or an outdated habit that's due for a change?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...
