pickThis is one of my favorites of the series! 25 year old hospital orderly, Carl, falls desperately in love with Elizabeth while she works as a candy striper because Liz, being her saintly self, smiles & is polite to him. He kidnaps her from the parking lot & takes her to his hovel. Jessica once again can‘t wait for her sister to start partying at the Morrows‘ welcome party. Todd sounds the alarm, Max Dellon‘s arrested & twin magic saves the day!
Thank you @TheAromaofBooks I love everything. I don‘t normally like getting any thing related to notebooks or journals but the notepad will come in handy on my fridge. The tea towel is perfect and the candles smell amazing. And the bookmark and tabs are just what I like to use in my books. And thank you for getting two books I have wanted for a while. #FFFS @Avanders @Chrissyreadit
pickA very unique, dynamic comic. Lots of heavy themes and gruesome art. Not always easy to follow, but an interesting, post-apocalyptic world of religious oppression and the struggle to survive.
pickAhh, another of the more memorable installments! Steven‘s girlfriend, Tricia Martin has the same kind of leukemia that killed her mother. To spare Steven pain, she pushes him away & Jessica leaps at the chance to fix Steven up with her bestie, Cara Walker. Jessica learns talk show host Jeremy Frank is in the hospital; she convinces Liz to join her in being candy stripers. Liz learns Tricia‘s secret & after much agonizing, tells Steven the truth.

Oh, how I love these books. I have all of du Jardin's books. They're loaded with 1950s nostalgia from the point of view of young women. The Pam & Penny series is my favorite, and I usually revisit these every couple of years. 🧡💜💛

pickThis is one of my favorites! Liz is in a coma! Jessica won‘t leave her side & when Liz wakes up, she starts acting more Jessica than Jessica— flirty, skipping out on chores & getting new sexier clothing & avoiding Todd. At Lila‘s party, she drinks with Bruce & then sticks Jess with babysitting the Percy twins while going to Bruce‘s beach house! A second head injury (after more wine with Bruce who is a real creeper here), restores her personality!
taking a break from listening to the moonstone for a quick middle-grade reread on today‘s walk 🧊🐺✨

Fangirl was okay. It could've been better. I didn't care for the fan-fiction story the protagonist was working on—I wish she worked on her short story for school. I would have loved to see what she would have done with that. I wish she dated Levi sooner, and I didn't care for Raegan's ground rules at the end. If she wasn't comfortable with her roommate dating her ex, she should have said so at the start.
