Welcome to Litsy!

I liked it. Then I didn't. Then I liked it again. And then I got mad at how the end was written, but overall I did like the book. This story is VERY YA, so be prepared for eye-rolling teenage angst. I think it has the right message about realization and how even in high school friendships can change. 3.75 out of 5.

This is book is of a young girl going through the woes of high school. Throughout her junior year, she experiences events that break her heart, hence the title. The book is a bit slow and hard to keep up with. I also thought of it as poorly written and plot convenient. The love story is a bit cute but tiring. Read at your own risk!

Welcome to The Museum of Heartbreak! Such a good read! I related to this very much and I really love how the story went 💚

Continuing with the #booktubeathon wrap-up, this was the book I started reading to fulfill the "Read a book you bought because of the cover" challenge.

I'm currently working away at it and have shared a couple of its slightly cheesy, romantical quotes ?

"and millions of tiny stars burst into being."

"Every nerve in my body was a solar system, stars and explosions and light and luminous moons."

Stellar language FTW!
Go team warm fuzzies!

"and the fact that my life was an open book but Audrey's and Eph's lives had chapters I wasn't cool enough to read."

Oh, the beauty and angst of teenage friendships.

The book nerd in me had to smile a little at Penelope's (MC) choice of words and comparison.

I enjoyed this book very much, very relatable and sweet. I found myself tearing up and cracking up laughing at spots. Very simple, good story. Enjoyed the characters!

"Walking in and seeing the bright colors of book covers and the light wood floors, my heart slowed into a comfortable rhythm. Home. Books were home."

It is never safe when I check my email and see that Book Outlet is having a 30% off Black Friday sale...

Really enjoyed this coming of age/first love YA novel. Set in NY and and now I want to go there and visit all the cool spots ( flea markets, second hand book stores, coffee shops)

Trying to read last library book before we leave on holidays Wednesday

"He was a drummer in a punk band called The Migraines - the name wasn't metaphorical..."

"I don't want them to go." #firstlines

3⭐️ It was very sweet but while some YA are awesome adult reads as well this one leaned too young. A quick, cute read but I'd only recommend to the teen set.

I have an addiction. And nine new deadlines, as the library will want these back eventually 😜

A great quick, cute read even though I suffered a lot of second hand embarrassment with the stuff Penelope blurted out or did. Such a sweet story about growing up and finding your first love. I completely related to Penelope and her awkwardness around people.

This was a cute, fun read. It made my heart happy.

The characters in this are so incredibly real that it's both absolutely wonderful and in some cases totally terrible.

I finished The Girls this morning. Review later.

I'm starting The Museum of Heartbreak now. I'm not sure if it's going to be mature enough for me to enjoy. The one review on Listy isn't positive. Has anyone read it?

I liked the concept a lot, and thought the way the story was told was pretty clever. But I wasn't particularly fond of the characters or relationships!

Been excited about this book for a while—just got a galley AND a tiny homemade diorama!
