The story was ok. It wasn't a new favourite unfortunately but it was definitely an interesting story but not the book for me.

I didn't hate this one but it did drag in some places and I can see some comparisons to Six of Crows this wasn't as exciting.
The writing was fine, the characters were my favorite about this and I'm not sure if this is a standalone or a series but I did find a lot of the plot didnt get resolved so I'm just going to hope there's another book.
Thankyou to Negalley and Penguin Random House for letting me read this arc :)

We're not even in 2022 yet and this is already one of my favourites of the year!
I wasn't the biggest fan of Wilder Girls but this one was so good! It had beautiful writing, great characters and creepy scenes but the plot was so freaking cool.
If you wanted more from Wilder Girls I think you'll really dig this, I went into this with just the knowledge it was compared to Wilder Girls and I was worried I wasn't going to really like this but Ann Fraistat really killed this and wrote a fantastic novel
I'm so happy I was able to review this one early via Random Penguin House and Netgalley.
I won't ever shut up about this book

I thought the magic element to the story was so interesting but I didn't really care for Ellie and Jack's relationship. It had some cute moments and I was really excited and I feel a bit disappointed that it isn't a 5 star read.

This one is hard for me to rate because I think the concept is so freaking crazy and relatable especially with the social media aspect.
The story follows a cast of high schoolers and suddenly a meme appears out of nowhere where you repost what you think is the scariest way to die and then it begins to happen in real life.
I liked the idea because it was definitely scary concept but I didn't like the characters whatsoever (which I could usually look past in thrillers) but I guess it was just insufferable in this one for some reason.
I also didn't enjoy that every chapter ended in shock when it didn't have to be? I did like the short chapters.

I loved this one! It was so fun and not a dull part. I was a bit skeptical of the concept at first 'Sleeping Beauty meets Indiana Jones' I immediately was like "Oh my god, what!?" But this was so good and so much fun.
I need a physical copy immediately. This is the book I would ask my non-reader family/friends to read it is such a beautiful book that you can tell the author put so much time and effort into and it was amazing and I can't wait to follow these amazing characters in the sequel!

I loved Issac and Diego's dynamic in the story and I really enjoyed watching their relationship unfold. This is such a good friends to lovers story
I think I will have to check out more from this author in the future, I definitely reccomend this one if you need a good friends to lovers but not too YA

I've wanted to read Sabaa Tahir's other books but still haven't gotten to it.
I really liked this one. I thought going in I would be bored or something but this is such a beautiful story with such very leveled characters and I definitely will be getting a physical copy when it comes out!
I will be definitely thinking about this one for a while

This was really well written. The pacing of it is a bit off but the characters were ok and I kinda got similar vibes to 'If It Gets Out' by Sophie Gonzales
I really liked Hunter but I do wish the other side characters were more fleshed out but I am a stan of boy bands so I think I'll definitely come back to this one and reread it

I can definitely see similarities between Jane the Virgin and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants but it was just ok for me.
I didn't really connect with it until the 30% mark and there is some parts I absolutely inhaled and adored but overall at least for now it's just 3 stars.
I really did love Ava's character and how she was so interesting and I may continue on with the sequel we shall see. I'm also obsessed with the cover
