💰Lucky Girl by Jamie Pacton — 05/11/21💰 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What’s something frivolous you would buy if you won tens of millions in the lottery? I want a house in north GA with a big library 😌 time to go buy a scratch off 🏃🏽‍♀️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’m on a book tour with @tbrbeyondtours , so to see my full review and mood board, you can check out the link in my bio ⬆️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ~~~~~~ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Seeing all the praise for Lucky Girl, I had high hopes I would enjoy it too, but wow I did not expect to love this book as much as I did. It was something that grew on me until I was teary eyed at the end and wanted to scream to the world about this book. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There’s betrayal and drama and friendship. It’s so funny and takes you on constant twists and turns. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I really enjoyed how Jamie’s mom’s hoarding wasn’t just a plot device used to make the story interesting. It was wrapped in the entire story and added a lot of substance and heart to the book. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Another cool element of the story besides the MC’s bisexuality is her trying to get over a relationship but failing. It was so realistic to have the best friend that still hates the person even though you’ve made up with them, so that extra tension made Jane’s decisions more interesting. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Overall, this is a book you want to read. Your feelings about characters will completely pivot from one end of the spectrum to the other while reading. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *Thank you to the publisher and TBR And Beyond Tours for the ARC. All opinions are my own* ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ~~~~~~ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #BookishEnds #Bookstagram #LuckyGirl #JamiePacton #PageStreetYA #TBRBeyondTours #BookTour #YoungAdultBooks #YAContemporary #YAReads #BookReview #BookRecs #BooksAndFlowers
🇯🇵Tokyo Ever After by Emiko Jean — 05/18/2 🇯🇵Tokyo Ever After by Emiko Jean — 05/18/21🇯🇵 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Say hello to my new obsession 👋🏼 I started this book last night and finished it this morning which makes me both happy and sad because I already want more. I want a sequel. I want spinoffs with the other royal family members. Give me 8 books set in this world please and thank you. Should I do a cover recreation for this one 👀 cause I feel like I should. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ There were so many great things about this book so let me try to condense them: 👑 So much talk about identity and belonging. I think this book is great for people who feel out of touch with their culture and othered. I loved the Asian Girl Gang and how they really saw each other. 👑 I looked up the actual palace and wow. I would like to be a royal for like one week. No more no less. 👑 The relationships in this book are top tier. Every interaction with Akio fueled me. I swooned reading this book. Instant blushing because so cute 🥺. I also loved seeing Izumi and her dad navigate their new relationship. 👑 Ninjō 👑 There was some betrayal in this book and I've never felt so bamboozled. When you read this please scream into my dms because I'm hurt 👑 I love tradition vs modernity, so seeing Izumi try to fit in but also want to shake things up was👌🏼Sis really could not catch a break though lololol 👑 You know in the Bridgerton musical when Daphne goes, "I stole your fate." And Simon goes, "No, I stole your fate." I buuuuuuuuuuuurn for you. Yeah those vibes are present. 👑 The last chapter. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *Thank you to the publisher for the ARC.

🏝Where the Rhythm Takes You by Sarah Dass — 0 🏝Where the Rhythm Takes You by Sarah Dass — 05/11/21🏝 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I read Where the Rhythm Takes You into the wee hours of the morning last week because I could not put it down. And then I did because I didn't want it to end. I'd read anything Sarah writes after this cause 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Lemme tell y'all my highlights: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🦎 Who would win: One lizard or a group of celebrities? 👫🏾Second chance romance is one of my fave tropes, but I don't usually see that in YA, so I ate this story up. Like the tension, the pining, the regret. Chef's kiss. 🐠Fish, not the animal but a person, was one of my faves. I love goofy, earnest characters. 🎨🎶Artistic characters. 🙅🏽‍♀️I kind of had beef with Eliza 🥺So many awww moments 💭Loss of a parent and being tied down by their dreams 🇹🇹Tobagonian culture ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Run, don't walk, to the store and pick this one up. I've never read Persuasion, but now I wanna know what Ms. Austen was throwing down that inspired this beautiful book. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *Thank you to the publisher and Books Forward for the ARC. All opinions are my own* ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ~~~~~~ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #BookishEnds #Bookstagram #WhereTheRhythmTakesYou #SarahDass #EpicReads #BalzerAndBray #YoungAdultBooks #YAFiction #YARomance #IReadYA #BooksAndFlowers #BookRecs #SecondChanceRomance #BooksForwardFriends #DebutNovel #BlackBookstagram
☀️😎 Cool for the Summer by Dahlia Adler — ☀️😎 Cool for the Summer by Dahlia Adler — 05/11/21☀️😎 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Can we talk about how much I love this cover? 😍😍 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Cool for the Summer was an enjoyable read. I loved how sex positive it was and Larissa’s passion for romance novels and writing. As someone who loves Demi Lovato, the tie to her song Cool for the Summer is so accurate, and I liked how it played a part in the story. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I will say I never felt connected to Chase and was Team Jasmine from the beginning 😗 I'm a big fan of the flashbacks we got from the summer with Jasmine, and it was interesting to see how they contrasted with her and Jasmine's relationship in the present. Also Kiki was the best person in Larissa’s friend group hands down. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The ending really was the cherry on top. This is a good book for reading about a teen trying to figure out their sexuality, and there’s Jewish rep! *Thank you to the publisher for the ARC. All opinions are my own* ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ~~~~~~ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #BookishEnds #Bookstagram #CoolForTheSummer #DahliaAdler #WednesdayBooks #YoungAdultBooks #YAFiction #IReadYA #BookStack #FlowersAndBooks #SummerReads #BookReviews #BookRecs #MayRelease #NetGalley
