BOOK REVIEW RUNDOWN: YES NO MAYBE SO


📖BOOK TITLE: YES NO MAYBE SO 

📖AUTHOR: BECKY ALBERTALLI & AISHA SAEED

📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS: 
#NinetyNinethBookOf2024 #1BookToHundred 🎉

Let me be honest, the politics talk threw me a little, and I know what you are thinking, but I'm not much of a politics girlie- That being said, let's talk about the love story between Jamie and Maya: a love story that started all because they went canvassing together, and it was so cute that Jamie fell first 🥰🤭.

Jamie has always seen himself as an awkward, shy, and unbrave teen. It's funny what love will do to you, and we see how Jamie opened up and became better at things he didn't quite know how to do well: first canvassing, public speaking, speaking up for himself more, and telling Maya how he feels 🤭.

Jamie and Maya are very different. He is Jewish, and she is Muslim. I want to know how they will navigate these differences and grow. Oh my God, I wish there's a sequel. (Sincerely, I've just been wishing for sequels lately😂😂)

The world won't change itself; change starts with us, you and me. Be the change you want to see in the world, and can you tell that I totally adore Jamie 🤭.

📖RATINGS: 3 STARS ⭐⭐⭐

📖QUOTES:
There is far more that unites us than divides us.

All our actions are little drops that collect into a groundswell for change. It’s the only way most change happens.

We have to fight for change however we can.

It’s strange how something can be someone’s entire universe, but not even register as a blip for someone else.

#17 NETGALLEY READ: SOME LIKE IT SCOT

📖 BOOK TITLE: SOME LIKE IT SCOT  📖AUTHOR: PEPPER BASHAM  📖THOUGHTS&OPINIONS:  #135thBookOf2024 Thank you to Netgalley, the publisher, and the author for granting my request to read this e-ARC and provide my honest opinions. It has been long since I've felt all the feels of a romantic swoon, and this book filled my heart with a renewed faith in love and what love can do to a person. I kept wishing for this book not to end for me to continue immersing myself in the richness of the love story between Graeme (I pronounce this as "grim" in my head; I hope that is correct 😂) and Katie. These two give a whole different meaning to love, 🥰🥰 and I love it for them. Katie, the travel writer who does not have roots in any place, meets Graeme, who has a loving family in Mull and is not thinking of going anywhere any time soon. After meeting our two MCs, I thought that maybe this was just going to be a fling, but alas, with these two, the word fling doesn'...

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...

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 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
