I loved how they made cupcakes that they liked best. I love cupcakes.

I read this one myself even though it was hard!

Same Sun Here
by Silas House

book cover


I read this as part of an all school summer read. The two author voices create an authentic experience providing two perspectives. I appreciated the back and forth of two young people sharing vulnerabilities coming from different backgrounds, using a forgotten medium that allows for a mindfulness that I think young people could benefit from. I did think the novel attempted a lot with all the issues it covered.

I loved this book. It was like a walk down memory lane as he describes the roles he did and his journey through Hollywood.

I really did not like this one. The pacing was very slow. I liked the present timeline more than the past .

Bury Our Bones In The Midnight Soil

book cover


I loved the author's previous book, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, so I was excited to read this one. That one blended a strain of fantasy into the present world, and this one did too. I don't want to give anything away, but it's the interconnected story of three women—Sabine, Charlotte, and Alice—over a period ranging from the 1500s to present day, in Europe and Boston. It was interesting and entertaining, but not as good as Addie LaRue, for me.

Maybe In Another Life
by Taylor Jenkins Reid

book cover


'Maybe in Another Life' was a compelling read but then held some aspects I disliked. I did fall in love with the characters, such as the main one, Hannah. I was glad to see how far she'd come in both lives. Her life story makes me feel a bit better. She changed from indecisive to quite decisive. Hannah transformed as a person and chose to follow a healing path. I was fond of how she learned to accept many things that came in her way. What I didn't like was how many times cinnamon rolls and high buns were mentioned. I also got bored of how tedious the story got. Oftentimes, it repeated what happened in that life to the other life. TJK incorporated lots of wisdom within Hannah, which I found nice. Overall, I'm satisfied the story ended happily, but it just wasn't one of my best reads.

Beautiful Ugly

This was a very entertaining book! Alice Feeney’s books always keep me guessing and have twists I can never truly guess at accurately. I was a little confused with how the stories came together at the end, however.
