I want to reread my past 5 stars books and The House in the Cerulean Sea is definitely one of them. The story of love that can come in many shapes and sizes it’s a beautiful story that If you haven’t read it, it should be a must. TJ Klune is an amazing author that will make you feel all the love that he has for each and every character. Highly recommend. Please put this on your TBR!!

I had only seen great things about The house in the cerulean sea, which is the reason why I was nervous to read it, scared to just find it okay. But it wasn't just okay, I loved the book so much. I loved the writing style.
It was so heartwarming, the characters were so sweet and I got so attached to them. I loved seeing the evolution of Linus's thoughts, stand up for himself and the magical children. ...more
