Reggie
The Haunting of Velkwood | Gwendolyn Kiste
post image
Mehso-so

Ughhhh. This had so much potential. Talitha Velkwood still reeling from a tragic event 20 yrs ago gets an offer to go back to her haunted street she left. That piece of haunted street that exists in its own reality separate from our own. One only Talitha and 2 other girls can enter. It could have used more characterization, I‘m not a fan of going back and forth between places where nothing really happens or gets moved forward. I did like her 👇🏼

Reggie writing ability to write about and around something without giving it away but that got old real quick. I would like a lesbian to tell me what they think about this book. Loved the ending but didn‘t enjoy the journey. Mehhh 2d
sarahbarnes This definitely sounds intriguing. Sorry it sounds like it fell short for you. 2d
Reggie @sarahbarnes AND it won the Bram Stoker award for best novel this year!!! thank you, Sarah. 2d

LeahBergen Oh, too bad! 2d
Suet624 It‘s even more disappointing considering it won the award for this year. 1d
Reggie @LeahBergen it probably didn‘t help that I listened on audio and the girl reading it was fully embodying the character sounding depressed and on Xanax or something. And it was a bright sunshine day and I‘m on vacation. But rainy day Reggie still would have thought meh. lol 22h
Reggie @Suet624 sometimes Denzel wins the Oscar when you want it to go to Russel and sometimes Russell wins the Oscar‘s when you want it to go to Denzel. 🤷🏽‍♂️ 21h
Centique I love your comment about what rainy day Reggie would have thought 😝 19h

Why wasn't I warned that I would need book 2 right next to me the moment I finished book 1??

A YA romance between the school's star rugby player and the new girl who is bullied and abused.

TheLudicReader Right? That was exactly my reaction. 7d

LeafingThroughLife
Lock and Key | Sarah Dessen
post image
Pickpick

Sarah Dessen has a formula: lost, vulnerable female narrators learning how to love and be loved. The formula works so well on me. When Ruby‘s mom disappears, she finds herself living with the sister she thought had abandoned her. As she tries to settle into private school, new friendships, and an idyllic life with her sister and brother-in-law, she can‘t help but feel out of place and as if her new life is only temporary. (1/2)

LeafingThroughLife As her walls start to come down, she begins to realize that she‘s not the only one who needs some help and for at least one of her new friends, she is the only one equipped to give it. As always, Dessen‘s full cast of characters is well-drawn and relatable, and Ruby‘s journey from abandonment to belonging has the perfectly satisfying emotional arc I‘ve come to expect from Sarah Dessen at her best. ❤️ (2/2) 1w
