Bookish Boyfriends: A Date With Darcy by Tiffany Schmidt - Spoiler Free Review

Here's another book review for you guys! I hope you find it useful. 😋

 Rating: ⭐⭐.5

 Synopsis: Merrilee Campbell, 16, thinks boys are better in books, chivalry is dead, and there’d be nothing more romantic than having just one guy woo her like the heroes in classic stories. She’s about to get the chance to test these daydreams when she, her best friend, Eliza, and her younger sister, Rory, transfer into Reginald R. Hero High, where all their fantasies come true—often with surprising consequences.

 Personal Review: As you can see, I gave it only 2.5 stars out of five. The reason behind this is mainly because I was disappointed, bored and not really interested in the plot. I'm going to admit that it was cute at some points, but that's it. I was expecting more fluffiness, and cute bookish moments. But I just felt like the characters were too forced. Also, maybe this is just me, I didn't like the classic aspect of it. All those references to Romeo and Juliet and Pride and Prejudice didn't really captivated me! Also, this guy at the beginning who started loving Merrilee the moment he saw her, like who falls in love that fast!? I guess this is a Romeo and Juliet parallels, but as I said, I didn't like those parallels. I was also very bored. I was always checking how many pages were left before another chapter, before the end of the book. 😅

 Favorite thing about the book: The cover... I love the pink! 🙊

 Other books by Tiffany Schmidt you should read: I haven't read any other thing by her yet, but I will be checking out whatever she puts out there next! On goodreads, it says that this book is the first in a series, duology or trilogy (idk), but I will be checking out the sequels for sure and give this another fair chance! 😀

 Thank you for reading!

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...

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.
