I just finished a YA book and as I so often feel when I read a book with a high school aged main character, I do not understand how every single character had parents with no idea where their kids are all summer. Like, states away from home overnight.

This book was exactly what I expected and I liked it for that. It’s got a great fake dating plot and the story wraps up right when it should.

This book was heartbreaking and nerve wracking and so good. The way it shifts the story more towards the authoritarianism and how no one flourishes under it is perfectly crafted. I am so invested in the story and can’t wait to see where Mockingjay goes.

This story sucked me in and had many alarming parallels to reality. What was most upsetting to me was the way the government took a cruel situation and toyed with it to continually make it worse. I loved the characters and descriptions and can’t wait to read the rest of the series

The best thing about being an American today is taking weather advice from a groundhog located in (squints) .. Gobbler's Knob.

I enjoyed these stories but it was pretty redundant. This is a fun extension to the series if you’re not quite ready to leave their world, but it doesn’t really bring more to the story.

This book just didn’t need to go the way it did, and the movie honestly demonstrates that, and even the movie feels a little scattered. While I’m glad I read it, it just doesn’t measure up to the start of the story.

This is a great sequel to Divergent but it just doesn’t quite meet that level. It feels like it gets the story where it’s supposed go, and the story is so good, but it’s a little confusing and scattered.

Bookclub pick: I was not a fan. I’ve really enjoyed some of Steinbeck’s other work but this one fell flat for me. The humor made me cringe and I could never just enjoy it because the characters were so unconcerned with logistics that I felt like I was just worried for them at every turn

I needed a minute to let this one settle in. I absolutely loved it. I feel like it’s the kind of book I could reread 100 times and I’d figure out something new every time. I cared so deeply for the characters and loved learning about new layers of their lives as the story progressed.

I adored this book. It felt so real, I loved how it explored the complexity of Evelyn’s sexuality. She refused to be defined by others’ opinions and I loved feeling like I was watching her fight for what she wanted even as that shifted. I also loved the slight mystery element.

I like to think I hate pregnancy and marriage of convenience tropes but it’s just not true, I eat them up and this was no exception. I LOVED it. And it all ended so perfectly tied up with a bow

I found the FMC to be less annoying than in “In My Hockey Era” but I just didn’t live it. The whole she’s made a career out of hating live thing took it a little too far for me personally.
