Got a book from my #TBR list, and its autographed! What a good day 📚🙌
pickThis book was amazing in so many ways. I have already read it too many times to count and I still cry, laugh, and scream with the characters. It is by far one of my best reads and totally recommend it! The best part, it's based on he author's life as a girl, which makes this book so influential in more ways than I dare to count. Anyway, great read and I couldn't stop! Enjoy!

So one week before school back in session. I've got to prep for the year. Here's my first read.
