I created my own #readingbracket2024, and my January pick is The Hero's Closet!

4.5/5⭐ I'm impressed by how thorough this book is on how to make costumes; the instructions can also be used for making clothing in general. I'll probably still need to watch videos on some of the techniques, but overall the descriptions and images are clear. The book provides patterns and instructions for basic pieces that can be combined and altered to create the most common costumes/cosplays, along with details for making those alterations.

Cuuuuteeeee! There was a lot going on and the main was rude, but I liked it! I wish it focused more on their frenemies dynamic and the blooming relationship, but the times when it did were 👌🏼

What are the odds 2 of my current reads both feature a character named Dahlia?

I really enjoyed this one. Totally entertaining and I loved the characters. One of the things I've been really enjoying with this #mangathemed reading month is the artwork. If you're looking for a new series highly recommend this one. #bookspin @thearomaofbooks

I love a good nerd love story! I learned a lot about cosplay and loved the beautiful second chance love story. Eli never gives up and fights for what they want-even against someone they love. 🩵 Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

The synopsis made this sound so good but it didn‘t deliver. The FMC was annoying and kind of a brat. The book focused more on her family issues than the romance. I wanted more witty banter and a true enemies to lovers story. Instead I got family drama with a side of instalove. ⭐️⭐️😕

4 ⭐ There is nothing wrong with being a nerd unless, if you‘re introverted and keep to yourself and are quiet and meek. Then you‘re invisible. But some people they really come alive at ComiCon. That‘s the case with our main character. She has a ComiCon character she‘s completely invented for herself, which is a Victorian steampunk ask character named Rel. As Rel she can do anything and be anyone. She has the confidence to leave an illustration

LibrarianRyan and a poem with an email address in the locker of the boy that she likes. However, her everyday persona of Ramona is the mild meek and quiet nerdy girl. Most of the family, be it mom and dad or the cousins, don‘t understand her nerdiness, and there is even a part of the story that shows how separate Ramona feels from her family. Her extended cousins don‘t think of her as “black” enough because she‘s a nerd. Overall, this was a really fun, cute, 14mo
LibrarianRyan lighthearted, love story. It does date itself. It‘s brand new but many of the pop-culture references are already a year or two at a date and that‘s just going to continue as this book ages. So, while I did think it was fun, it‘s fun for right now. It will not become a classic, but it doesn‘t have to. They‘ll be some nerdy black girl who will see this and go” This is the story I need. This is me. And I feel seen.” 14mo
