Finally an update of what I’ve been reading is here! I’ll admit, I haven’t gotten to all the books on my list from the last post, but it’s because I keep buying more books and reading those instead – does anyone else do this?! Anyways, most of the books I’ve read recently have been 10/10 so let’s get started!
What I’ve Read
WHAT ALICE FORGOT // You guys, I loved this book!!! It’s not a classic mystery like most of Moriarty’s novels, but there was still a lot to uncover. Alice wakes up and has forgotten the past 10 years of her life – she has three kids and is getting divorced but she doesn’t remember any of it. This book was hilarious, but also emotional at parts. I can’t recommend it enough!
HOLDING UP THE UNIVERSE // This wasn’t the best love story I’ve ever read, but it was definitely a twist to the usual ‘cute, popular guy falls for the invisible, not-so-cool girl’ cliche! I don’t know if I just didn’t connect with the characters or what, but I definitely preferred the next YA romance…
TO ALL THE BOYS I’VE LOVED BEFORE // I read this series back in high school, but since the Netflix film came out, I had to read it again. And then I got sucked in and read all three books. The first is definitely the best, the third I didn’t love, but it was still pretty good. So now I’m eagerly, and not-so-patiently, awaiting the second film! If you haven’t heard of this series, you at least need to watch the movie… I mean, Peter Kavinksy is 😍
WHAT TO SAY NEXT // This was written by the same author as Tell Me Three Things, which I absolutely loved. This book was so cute, but also really sad at times. The love story was unexpected, and definitely different from the usual high school romance novel. I really loved the characters and was rooting for them the whole time!
On My List
GIRL WASH YOUR FACE // I was given this book for my birthday and I can’t wait to read it! It’s a self-help type book for women and I’ve heard it’s really good!
CHINA RICH GIRLFRIEND // I read the first book of this series (Crazy Rich Asians) over the summer and have been meaning to get my hands on the second one!
THE IDENTICALS // Fran Accardio has been talking about this book on her reading list, as well as some other novels by the same author, and I think it’s time for me to check it out!
SHARP OBJECTS // I watched this series on HBO and loved it. Obviously I already know how it ends, but I think I need to read the book too! It’s by the same author as Gone Girl so it has to be good right?
WHISKEY IN A TEACUP // Not exactly my typical book but I love Reese Witherspoon and was so excited when I heard she was writing a book!! I’m still so sad I didn’t make it down to Waco to hear her speak, but I think I still need to purchase the book.
