Rating books that I’ve read so far

Shatter me- I really enjoyed it and bc of Warner

The housemaid- I absolutely loved this book!!! I finished the whole thing in one day because it got straight to the point and the plot twist OMG.

The perfect marriage- eh it was ok i love anything true crime but we just kept getting suspects most of the whole book it felt like never ending and when we finally got to court they didn’t even show us anything just her opening statement. I wish we got more of the court than the suspects. The ending literally made no sense like girl did the most.

A good girls guide to murder - I wanted to read it before the show and LOVED this book

If he had been with me - I hated this book I’m sorry I couldn’t do it the book dragged on for so long about how they were feeling eachother but never told each other then kept brining up her being a crazy delinquent who wore tiaras like girl bffr.

It ends with us - This was my first ever book that booktok raved about so I gave it a try. I loved the awareness for DV but home girl was writing to Ellen Degeneres?? then falls in love with a homeless man?? Just very odd and don’t get me started on the movie.

We were liars - The beginning lost me I was so confused but towards the end it picks up and I liked the plot twist but i was just ok

A thousand boy kisses - This was the hardest book for me to get through… not only is it giving a 13 yr old wrote it on wattpad but Rune has serious attachment issues and gives me stalker vibes.

... Read moreReading can be a deeply personal experience, shaped not only by the plot but also by how a book resonates with our individual emotions and experiences. In recent years, BookTok has emerged as a powerful platform where readers share their opinions, turning particular novels into bestsellers overnight. Titles like 'It Ends With Us' by Colleen Hoover have sparked discussions around sensitive topics like domestic violence, drawing readers in with its emotional relatability. Similarly, thrillers such as 'The Housemaid' captivate audiences with fast-paced storytelling and unexpected twists that keep you turning the pages. Interestingly, while some books garner acclaim, others can evoke mixed reactions. 'A Thousand Boy Kisses' showcases the challenges of youthful love, but not every reader finds its writing style appealing. Many readers appreciate authenticity in character development and value engaging storytelling that avoids clichés. If you share my love for gripping novels or simply seek recommendations for your next read, join the conversation on platforms like Lemon8 where book lovers can share their insights. The diversity in opinions adds richness to our reading journey, making it worthwhile to explore new genres and authors. What’s next on your reading list?

🌸 It Ends With Us This is a book with some deeper themes and spreads awareness on domestic violence and while the main point of the book is 10/10 it’s just the small things like the name of the main character that just overall lacks creativity and some of the romantic aspects are a little cringe.
