Exit, Pursued By A Bear by E. K. Johnston Spoiler Free Review

Hello lovelies! 🔺🔻

 I finished "Exit, Pursued By A Bear" by E. K. Johnston recently! So here's a little review for you guys! 😋


 Rating: ⭐⭐

 Summary: Hermione Winters is captain of her cheerleading team, and in tiny Palermo Heights, this doesn’t mean what you think it means. At PHHS, the cheerleaders don't cheer for the sports teams; they are the sports team—the pride and joy of a tiny town. The team's summer training camp is Hermione's last and marks the beginning of the end of… she’s not sure what. She does know this season could make her a legend. But during a camp party, someone slips something in her drink. And it all goes black.

In every class, there's a star cheerleader and a pariah pregnant girl. They're never supposed to be the same person. Hermione struggles to regain the control she's always had and faces a wrenching decision about how to move on. The assault wasn't the beginning of Hermione Winter's story and she's not going to let it be the end. She won’t be anyone’s cautionary tale.

Personal review: I didn't quite like this book. It didn't have an impact at all for me, and the storyline was a bit of a mess in my opinion. First, the main character, Hermione, gets raped (this is not a spoiler, it literally says so on the book). But like, Hermione's decisions afterwards seemed so easy. She didn't seem to be struggling. I wanted this book to show how hard it can be for a victim. But everything she went through after, it was so fast-paced that it didn't make sense. The book was way too fast-paced in general. 😐

I hope you enjoyed reading! I suggest you pick up this book and see for yourself! It wasn't a book for me, but maybe it's a book for you! 👀

Thank you for reading, 💞 

❣Noémie ❣

Leah On The Offbeat by Becky Albertalli - Spoiler Free Review

HIIIIIIIIII!!! Okay. I need to talk about this book. I just loved it so much and now Becky Albertalli is one of my favourite authors! Let's talk about Leah On The Offbeat! Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Synopsis:  Leah Burke—girl-band drummer, master of deadpan, and Simon Spier’s best friend —takes center stage in this novel of first love and senior-year angst.  When it comes to drumming, Leah Burke is usually on beat—but real life isn’t always so rhythmic. An anomaly in her friend group, she’s the only child of a young, single mom, and her life is decidedly less privileged. She loves to draw but is too self-conscious to show it. And even though her mom knows she’s bisexual, she hasn’t mustered the courage to tell her friends—not even her openly gay BFF, Simon.  So Leah really doesn’t know what to do when her rock-solid friend group starts to fracture in unexpected ways. With prom and college on the horizon, tensions are running high. It’s hard for Leah to strike the right note whil...

Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur - Spoiler Free Review

Hello lovelies! Here I am with another book review, of course! 🙆 I read another poem novel from the wonderful Rupi Kaur, and I absolutely loved it! Keep reading to read my full opinion❗ Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐.5  Synopsis:  milk and honey  is a collection of poetry and prose about survival. It is about the experience of violence, abuse, love, loss, and femininity. It is split into four chapters, and each chapter serves a different purpose, deals with a different pain, heals a different heartache.  milk and honey  takes readers through a journey of the most bitter moments in life and finds sweetness in them because there is sweetness everywhere if you are just willing to look. 🐝🍯 Personal review: I freaking loved this so much! I didn't think I was a poetry kind of girl, but oh my was I wrong! I have to be honest, I liked The Sun And Her Flowers more, but this one was still pretty awesome! It deals with serious topics, so I would not recommend if you are a very s...

Foolish Hearts by Emma Mills - Spoiler free review

I finished Foolish Hearts during the weekend and now it's time to talk about it! Happy reading. 😋 Rating : 🟃🟃🟃🟃⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 Synopsis :  The day of the last party of the summer, Claudia overhears a conversation she wasn't supposed to. Now on the wrong side of one of the meanest girls in school, Claudia doesn't know what to expect when the two are paired up to write a paper—let alone when they're both forced to try out for the school production of  A Midsummer Night's Dream.  But mandatory participation has its upsides—namely, an unexpected friendship, a boy band obsession, and a guy with the best dimpled smile Claudia's ever seen. As Claudia's world starts to expand, she finds that maybe there are some things worth sticking her neck out for. Personal review : I really enjoyed reading this book! I thought it was of slow at the beginning, but when you hit that 70 pages mark, it's veryyyyyy good! Definitely one of my fave books now. 😊 The story was rea...
