Books & Reviews with Eszter’s comments from the The Perks of Being a Reader<3 group.

Tate McRae, Sabrina carpenter, Rokudenashi (I like j-pop), Joel sunny (I’m a big fan of his violin songs), chase atlantic, and Madison beer. My fav music genres are pop, j-pop, some indie I think, and classical music(like violin and piano music).

Tom Holland :)

I love all of them, but Inez and Kaz have my heart!

Hendry Lowe- All of us Villains

I highly recommend reading the Caraval series. Not only is it fast paced, and has excellent character arcs, but the world is just amazing and just-*chef’s kiss*. I can’t explain to you how imaginative and suspenseful this series is. There are so many plot twists, and nothing is what it seems. I can’t really compare it to any other book or series because it’s just that original and creative! I’d recommend giving the first book a try, and then decide if you want to continue. Some books aren’t for everyone, so if you decide you don’t like it, that’s understandable. But if you want to give it a try, I’d say go for it!

I do annotate my books, but I only tab them. I’ve recently started it last year November, and it’s really fun and helpful to help me recall what I read. I personally don’t like writing in my books because I don’t like destroying my books, but it’s just my opinion. I highly recommend annotating your books, even if it’s just tabbing, since it not only helps you remember, but it’s also fun when your rereading it to know what you thought of it at the time.

We read the Outsiders last year with my class, and it was honestly heartbreaking but also amazing. The ending just makes you want to reread the book again.

Literally the whole Shadowhunters 🤦‍♀️. My tbr is endless, but there’s just so many other books that I had to read, and still do, so I’m planning on starting the Shadowhunters in May/June. Millions of people have read at least the mortal instruments, so I’m ready to jump on that train as well.

I really didn’t like We Were Liars. There are mixed opinions on this book, and I fall on the negative side. Maybe it’s just me, but the big reveal wasn’t mind-blowing. Everyone is different, so maybe someone thought it was phenomenal, but I just don’t get the hype. There were some things I enjoyed while I could, pretty minor actually. Another thing about it was that the almost all of the characters were greedy and selfish, which also lowered my rating of it. Personally, I wouldn’t recommend it.

Yes, I definitely recommend the Shatter Me series! It’s dystopian and a romance and there’s an enemy to lovers trope! It has characters that will stick with you, and it’s also fast paced! Highly recommend it! Maybe try just getting the first book first and not the whole series, so you don’t have to commit right away if you don’t like it at first.

I will always recommend All of Us Villains! It’s pretty underrated, and its definitely on par with the hunger games. It’s dark fantasy, with a bloody tournament that happens every twenty years, and seven of the wealthiest families competing for the highest magik to the death. This would keep you on the edge of your seat, and the sequel is even better!
