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!

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.
pickThis is probably my fourth time reading this novel and it tore my heart to pieces as relentlessly as it did the first time. A beautiful story, every time I read it I am reminded that real growth as a human being always involves looking yourself in the eye, confronting your shortcomings and asking for forgiveness, and how incredibly difficult that is.

Been a huge Sweet Valley fan since I was 9 years old. Still love reading them for nostalgia‘s sake. 🥰

pickI‘m in my Hilderband era apparently- as this is my 4th book of hers I‘ve read this summer. Although there wasn‘t character overlap like in her other books, I really enjoyed this read. I loved the character development.
pickHow to explain how much I loved this book? The author makes magic with words. His character development is outstanding—I especially loved Marion. His medical background shines through, making the surgical details fascinating. I also learned so much about Ethiopia. If I could give 100 stars, I would.
pickSo much fun! This twist on the Bourne Identity takes an identical twin, whose sister is a spy, and gives her amnesia. It was a tad long for what it was, and the “bad guys found us, we need to escape” loop became repetitive. But it‘s definitely entertaining. I‘m curious if anyone has read the sequel and if it‘s worth picking up. If you haven‘t read the author‘s. “Most Wonderful Crime of the Year”, it should be a must for this holiday season.
pickThe slow, tender unwrapping of this story of twin brothers and their small village bed and breakfast is genuinely funny and sweet.
