Review: Kaleidoscope Hearts by Claire Contreras

He was my older brother’s best friend. He was never supposed to be mine. I thought we would get it out of our system and move on. One of us did. One of us left. Now he’s back, looking at me like he wants to devour me. And all those feelings I’d turned into anger are brewing into something else, something that terrifies me. He broke my heart last time. This time, he’ll obliterate it. I love how this book just jumps right into the main plot. So I can easily say that there are no boring parts! The chemistry between Oliver and Elle is just great. But I’m beginning to hate how all romance books always have a happy ending. I totally thought this one wouldn’t. I got this book because I am a sucker for those brother’s best friend romance books, and I was not disappointed in this book. I like how it’s a second chance love, but I feel like there were more chances than that. Which is why I don’t think there should have been a happy ending. And can I just say that I hate the name Oliver? I like ho

What Book Made Me Love Reading?

I wish I could say it was something cool like Harry Potter or Lord Of The Rings. Something that’ll not make you laugh at me. Too bad, it’s not. Please don’t laugh at me. You know that children’s series by Mary Pope Osbourne? No? Well do these look familiar? My childhood revolved around the Magic Tree House series. I’m not exactly sure why I was drawn to this particular series but I was. I’m quite ashamed of it now though. But I will say thank you to them for showing me that I can read and be wherever I wanted to be.

How Blogging About Books Has Changed Me

Image
Okay, so obviously it’s not really going to change my life drastically. But it many ways, it has changed me and the way I go about doing things. When I begin a book now, I do not really read the synopsis or any reviews. I always feel put off if I don’t like the synopsis or read negative reviews. I know what everyone is going to say, “Why buy a book if you don’t know what it’s about?” I generally buy books from the same genres. I also judge a book by it’s cover, sue me. I’m 99.9% sure almost all book bloggers do. Now when I read books, I look more into reasoning. I look more into why characters are the way they are and whatnot. It makes for better reviews and better understanding for those who couldn’t understand it themselves. Instagram. Instagram. Instagram. I now buy books based on whether I think they’ll look good on my Instagram account. I’m an awful person for this, I know. But I like my feed and I like to show pretty books on it. Sorry. With all of the blogging and Instagramming,

Review: The Summer I Turned Pretty Trilogy by Jenny Han

Image
Belly has always lived for the summertime because it means all her favorite things: swimming, the beach and the Fisher boys, Conrad and Jeremiah. She has spent every summer with them at Cousins Beach for as long as she can remember. She has always been in love with Conrad and finally, one summer, it seems like he might have feelings for her too. But it turns out, so does Jeremiah. As the summers go on, Belly has to choose between two brothers who love her as she comes to the realization that she will have to break one of their hearts. Purchase: Amazon ~ Kindle I was skeptical about reading this book. I read so many reviews saying that it wasn’t worth the read. I’ve decided to never read reviews before reading a book ever again. I loved this book. It was such a cute read. It made me feel like I was at the beach and crushing on boys. It made me feel younger. This book ended exactly how I wanted it to. There were also parts that I did not want to happen, parts that made me cry. This book
