Just Finished
As you may have gathered from my review, I was not as big of a fan of this book as I hoped. Though it was horror and atmospheric and queer, overall I just found it slow, oddly paced, and boring. It did not live up to my expectations.
Currently Reading
I decided to give WHAT IF IT’S US a shot because all I’ve been enjoying consistently this year are fluffy contemps and fantasies, and this is a queer fluffy contemp which makes it even better. I was really worried about this book because I HATE Adam Silvera’s books and haven’t liked anything Becky Albertalli has written besides SIMON, but as of the first two chapters I am highly enjoying it. Let’s hope it continues to be good.

Yes, I know, my answer for this is the same as last week, but I do really want to read both of these! As of now, I’m leaning more towards BLANCA & ROJA because I’m in a queer mood (although honestly that’s all the time, let’s be real) and in the mood for magical realism, plus I still haven’t read an Anna-Marie McLemore book yet.

I’m so excited for Blanca & Roja, it sounds wonderful and I adore McLemore’s writing. I hope you love it! Happy reading ๐
thank you! I’ve never read a book by her so I’m very excited to finally do so ๐
I just received my preorder of What If It’s Us today, and I’m so excited to read it! I’m glad you’re enjoying it so far โบ๏ธ And I can’t wait to read Blanca & Roja as well ๐
I hope you like both of them! Happy reading ๐
I’ve had mixed feelings about Silvera’s books to date. I appreciate the subject matter they tackle but they tend to be SUPER triggering for me. And I hope you enjoy Blanca & Roja! <3
I’ve found with his books that the rep is amazing but that I just find the pacing off and the plots gimmicky. What If It’s Us is super different from his other stuff so far though which is good.
Ahh I’m so glad you’re enjoying what if it’s us, I really liked that one! <3 <3 I can't wait to hear your thoughts about When We Caught Fire, it sounds so good. Happy reading! ๐
