What can I say. I couldn‘t resist the colored edges. 🥰 My single book haul book (cause I‘m on a major budget) 😒

3.25/4 ⭐️
An entertaining enough read. I just read Carrie in October so this suffered a little in comparison. It was fine and it kept me engaged. I‘ve probably been generous with my stars as I had a few nitpicks. I‘m glad I borrowed this from the library instead of buying.

The Weight of Blood | Tiffany D. Jackson

I'm posting the #BookScavengerHunt prompts in order & today is 'Blood'.

Oops I missed yesterday's prompt so there will be two posts today. This seems to be a YA retelling of 'Carrie' & the MC is biracial giving it an additional angle.

You Should See Me in a Crown | Leah Johnson

pick

Liked it, but not loved it. Maybe because the whole Prom Night Date isn't a thing in Switzerland (or at least wasn't when I went to school), so I couldn't really get the hype about it. But Liz is a great character and Leah Johnson wrote her really good. High potential of identification for younger readers. The message this book sends is great and so, so important! Loved the ending.

I am entirely obsessed with this book. Wes is the perfect compliment to Liz and their banter is simply amazing. I genuinely didn‘t this book would live up to the hype I‘d heard about it but it truly truly did.

so-so

It was a cute YA read. Definitely had great Rom-Com references. I think it was a little over hyped up. Cute quick read though.
