Omgggg i loved To all the boys i've loved before and i NEED to read The wrath and the dawn, hearing good things about more happy than not
I am reading None of The Above soon (hopefully). I'm hopeful that I'll enjoy it. I absolutely adore Simon Versus The Homo Sapiens Agenda. It's fantastic. Thank you for stopping by my blog earlier.
City of Bones and Daughter of Smoke & Bone made it onto my list as well! I've heard some great things about the Wrath and the Dawn, I'm really looking forward to reading that one 🙂
I've read None of the Above, but it managed not to make it onto my list. Loved Simon, and the Adam Silvera is on my list as well. Happy reading. If you're interested, here's my TTT.
Yes, I need to read Wrath as well. Have you read P.S. I Love You yet?
thanks for stopping by! I need to read those!
Thanks for stopping by! Nice to see we share some of the same books! I've heard amazing things about Wrath.
Thanks for stopping by. I need to read Simon and More Happy Than Not!
I have Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda on my iPad but haven't started it yet. I am a few pages from finishing GO SET A WATCHMAN and then i turn my attention to it. I think this is my fisrt time visiting your blog and I like what I see.
I have so many of these books on my TBR! Fab list. 😀
Well, thanks for stopping by and I'm glad you like what you see! 🙂 How is Go Set A Watchman? I'm a bit afraid to read it…
Thanks! 🙂
More Happy Than Not is on my short list of books to read VERY soon – I;ve heard amazing things about it! And I really want to read The Wrath and the Dawn too.
Thanks for stopping by!

AAAAAHH! SIMON VS AND MORE HAPPY THAN NOT ARE BOTH BRILLIANT! And I know it doesn't count much, coming from a stranger, but I definitely, definitely recommend these two. I also think None of the Above does an amazing service in portraying an intersexual character.
I Love Daughter of Smoke and Bone! Favourite book 🙂 Lola and City of Bones were good but I couldn't get into Cameron Post. The rest are all on my TBR list and I just wish I had more hours in the day so I could read more :). My TTT
