Review: Milk and Honey
Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur
My rating: 1 of 5 stars
I’m a slxt for poetry.
Two of my favorite fictional characters make poetry their whole personality [Genesis from FF7:Crisis Core and V from DMC5]
However, I sat down to listen to Milk & Honey, which was RAVED about when it came out….
I feel like I’m listening to early day Tumblr posts and not poetry. š
Review: Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing
Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing by Matthew Perry
As many reviewers have said, this book gets repetitive, rambly, and hard to follow at times.
I listened via audiobook and I found it a bit easier to treat it more as a “stream of consciousness” rather than a memoir.
Matthew Perry deserves his voice to be heard. Listen to his story. And then go out and do some good in his memory.
Review: Radio Silence
Radio Silence by Alice Oseman
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS BOOK.
First off, it is cute and fluffy, but also gets dark and deep. It pays homage to one of my favorite podcasts, Welcome to Night Vale andā¦.guysā¦..THEREāS A CANON ASEXUAL CHARACTER and not only that, this character has struggles with their mother being abusive as fuck, just like i do.
Furthermore, the word āagenderā, MY GENDER IDENTITY is smack dab right there in a printed book.
Thereās a platonic relationship and it is the most amazing thing EVER, proving that people can VERY MUCH BE ājust friendsā without wanting any romantic implications on their relationship.
I could honestly gush about this book for hours. it’s a 2017 favorite for sure!
Review: Hunted
Hunted by Meagan Spooner
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This was one of those books where i had to force myself to put it down after reading my allotted 50 pages a day, otherwise i would have sat and read the whole thing. It was THAT good.
I might be a little biased though because Beauty and the Beast is my second favorite Disney movie. [my first being The Aristocats, if youāre curious.]
Itās not your normal retelling though, it gets dark and gritty at times because Beauty [Yeva, to be exact.] in this story is your hunter. Thereās not a angry pitchfork mob. Yes, Beauty is the one hunting The Beast and i found that FLIPPING BAD. ASS. I was seriously convinced that she was going to kill him toward the end!

Review: The Seafarer's Kiss
The Seafarer’s Kiss by Julia Ember
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
THE LITTLE MERMAID RETELLING.
QUEER MERMAIDS.
NORSE MYTHOLOGY.
Ersel trying to figure out how Humans work is too cute
Loki The Trickster God is addressed with they/them pronouns and this pleases me greatly
Ersel is Ursula and not Ariel
FAT MC. FAT MC.
Ersel and Ragna hit each other [a huge no-no.] and even though Ragna is like āI shouldnāt have done that.ā Ersel turns around and is like, āYou punch better.ā and iām just sat here like YOU DO NOT HIT YOUR LOVE INTEREST, WTF.
Review: The Bone Witch
The Bone Witch by Rin Chupeco
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I got a whole bunch of Memoirs of a Geisha vibes off this book, especially when Tea was “starting from the bottom and now we here” and also with the heavy emphasis of entertainment in teahouses. The book’s plot; while SUPER INTERESTING in the beginning because the pacing was excellent, left me confused AS FUCK as we started getting towards the end.
Review: Get It Together, Delilah!
Get It Together, Delilah! by Erin Gough
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I never knew this would be the Coffee Shop AU Fanfic come to life
This was originally titled The Flywheel, which is the place where Delilah works / manages for her father.
Delilahās Dad is on a trip around the world working on getting over Delās Mom, June having an affair.
Charlie (Delilahās friend) is pretty cool. He’s like the wingman between Delilah and Rosa (Delilahās interest.) He almost goes to jail for beating the shit out of a girlfriendās father and ends up hiding out at Delilahās flat for a while
Delilah tripping over herself whenever Rosa is around is so #relatable
DEL AND ROSA ARE HANGING OUT SCREEN PRINTING SHIRTS!!!
I can definitely feel Delās frustration about dating someone in the closet.
Fuck Hamish. And not in the fun way.
I love when a bookās title is mentioned within the book somewhere. 
I’m so so so SO happy that Delilah and Rosa worked things out and ended up together in the end!! *pops confetti*
While Get It Together, Delilah! was super sweet and fluffy at times, it wasn’t all that lasting impressive but I’m slightly forgiving as this was Erin Gough‘s first novel.
