Selena (Life of a Random)
Selena (Life of a Random) is finished with To All the Boys I've Loved Before (To All the Boys I've Loved Before, #1)
I think I liked it even better this time :) I relate to Lara Jean on so many levels. I think there should be more "average" mc's like her. I think there should be more books about how maybe jocks aren't flat characters who only care about sports and hot girls.

It just pinpointed so many things that are hard in life or things that I'm afraid of or have trouble with. It was great <33

To All the Boys I've Loved Before (To All the Boys I've Loved Before, #1)

Selena (Life of a Random)
Selena (Life of a Random) is 85% done with To All the Boys I've Loved Before (To All the Boys I've Loved Before, #1)
so... I chose the wrong edition for my reading thing. WOOPS.

I'm actually on 302/355.

Guys, if you're a sister and you want to try to understand a younger/older sister (or even just sibling maybe) you should read this book. They tell us it's about a high school romance but actually it's about the innerworkings of sisterhood and why it's hard. One of the things I love <3

Lara Jean is so average and normal without the oh yeah she's quiet and average yet stunningly attractive. It's so refreshing.

Re-reading a book for what... the third time maybe?... kinda let's you focus on more things. Margot's grabbed my attention more this time around.

Anyway, this hit hard: "Anyone looking at her would think she was fine. Because Margot is always fine, even when she's not."

How Lara Jean felt about her big sis moving away has kinda grabbed my attention too.

Wow. WOW. So much has gone down. Can't say I love all the characters. There are some crazies and the MC was bothering me, but the world building though. It's amazing. So unique. But I have so many questions right now.

ennghh... still not loving the MC. I can tell the whole thing the author's trying to make happen is that a "mean" girl turns into a "nice" girl and regrets her actions but I'm not rly buying it.

Has NOT my expectations so far :( I was excited because youtube but the MC is selfish & shallow and I dunno.

Also, it doesn't help that Torrey's "likes" someone but you know that she would drop him like that to get in with the popular crowd. >.<

Selena (Life of a Random) is finished with The Raven King (The Raven Cycle, #4)
omg my mind is running a mile a minute trying to make sense of everything that just happened.

the thing about the Raven Cycle... is that there are so many stories going on at once... there isn't a straight timeline.... it's so knotted up and within....grr.

It's one of those books your mind has to digest for a long time.

Wow.... this is still amazing.

These books always make me think harder... concentrate more... to understand/comprehend.

this book is just.... creepy. There are loads of little hints that something is off and it's unsettling to read. >.<

It's much sadder and hopeless feeling than the movie. Probably because of the portrayal of Count Olaf.

I missed the crew :') And Marissa Meyer has a gift for gruff, sarcastic, flirty, whatever guys that are jerks but actually sweethearts. Jacin, Thorne, Wolf, etc. and its precious that they force themselves to work together for the girls in their lives. :D

Reminds me SO much of 100 Years of Solitude (which I disliked a lot). Also there's just tons of unnecessary sexual references or sexualization of situations. -_- me no like.

I wanted to like this book. But so far it's been really weird and disjointed and I don't know.

I had to re-read this because I just read the last book of the series a few days ago and there was just so much back story from this one that I couldn't remember. I'm loving re-learning all of it :)

Well. I'm not sure what to think.

I wanted to like it more but the whole romance thing ticked me off. It was (besides that) pretty cute though.

Just. URNGH.

I no want this overly intense, gaze-intense love triangle.

But I like you Paige. Just get less indecisive please.
