BOOK | RECENTLY READ
It has been too long since I posted a book review, the last one was back in September 2023. Oops! Anyway, I've read quite a lot for the past few months - I've been actively reading since January and oh boy, I did more than just a few books!
I won't be writing in-depth reviews about each book, just a brief review.
One True Loves - Taylor Jenkins Reid
So, I read this one 'cause The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. I was like, OK I need to read every book this author wrote! So I started with this one because people said it was 'calmer' than The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. Well, I like it but I don't love this. It was promising at the beginning but then as the story went by, it got a bit boring and predictable. Still going to read Reid's other books though!
3/5 stars
The Inheritance Games - Jennifer Lynn Barnes
Wow, what a ride! I love everything about this book - the characters' introductions, the premise, the plot twists, even the cliffhanger!! I immediately read the second book once I finished this one. SO. GOOD!
5/5 stars
The Hawthorne Legacy - Jennifer Lynn Barnes
OK still good! The story pace is faster than the first book but I wished some parts were longer. In some parts, they felt rushed. In the middle of the book, it was a little boring but it got better. I liked the ending of this book though!
4/5 stars
The Love Hypothesis - Ali Hazelwood
It's a cute book. That's all I can say. It's an easy read - a book you want to read when you're at the pool or the beach. It's predictable, but so nice.
3.5/5 stars
The Reappearance of Rachel Price - Holly Jackson
WOW. I love this book so much! It's amazing! The tension is built up so well. One of the books that got you thinking and making theories inside your head as you keep reading. I couldn't put this book down - finished this book in less than 20 hours.
5/5 stars
The Things You Can Only See When You Slow Down: How to Be Calm in a Busy World - Haemin Sunim
I took a break from fiction and decided to pick up this book. I started reading this book on the plane - my flight was 1.5 hours and by the time the captain announced it was landing time, I'd finished more than half of this book. I simply couldn't stop. Even though some parts are a tough lesson to learn, the author wrote it in a simple, calming way that makes you not want to stop. A beautiful work!
5/5 stars
8 Rules of Love: How to Find It, Keep It, and Let It Go - Jay Shetty
This is the first Shetty's book I read and I love it so much! So thorough that I felt like reading a textbook about love, life and every aspect that comes with them. Instead of reading for fun, I was reading to study. And let me tell you, I study hard with this book. I enjoyed it so much, so beautifully written!
5/5 stars
I am currently reading two fiction books and one self-help book. God know when I'm going to write the review again, hopefully, in less than 10 months ;)
Anyway, what's your current read book? Let me know! Xx
