All about e.lockhart

Dear reader,

today I will be reviewing both of E.Lockhart's books: Genuine fraud and we were liars. Both amazing books, that I loved reading.
The book that came first, we where lairs, was recommended to me by my friend, Sofia. I ordered it in summer last year. The cover of the book is beautiful, 3 people going into the sea on a summers day with a water-splodged camera. Now every time I look at that cover I think of what a wonderful and enjoyable experience it was to read.

The book is an engaging tale of a girl and her story. Set, in a beautiful background of her Grandfathers island. There are almost no words to describe how much affection you feel for the characters in the story. It made me smile, laugh and cry, a lot. A truly tragic, tear-jerking, spine-tingling tale that I can not recommend enough.

Now genuine fraud. This book was so different from the first yet carried the same stunningly plotted perfection that appears to be a trend in her books. The story is wonderfully written and grips you from the first to the last word. it follows a woman on her journey to survive the strong grips of several memories. it has plenty of unexpected turns and rhetorical questions that I need answering, anyone who read this book like me, will want /does want a sequel.

So I ask the wonderful E.lockhart if she's reading this, to give the people what they want! Or, another adventure...

Love,
 girl with thoughts.

Just for December by Laura Jane Williams

Just for December by Laura Jane Williams: review Dear reader,  To Start with, thank you so much for the lovely girls at Avon Harper Collins for gifting me this proof around the holidays! This book was absolutely delightful, and extremely well timed. I cracked open this book on the same day the skies decided to comply with Michael Bublé and while it might not be a white Christmas, as the rain seems to have washed it away now, it made to be pretty idyllic conditions to read this book. I went into this book feeling festive and ready for something to give me all the fuzzy Christmas feelings, which it provided along with a lot more feelings than I predicted. Williams manages to craft cliches and worn-out tropes to make them seem like nothing of the sort and in fact- revive them. Enemies to lovers has not been done so humanly in a very long time, and all you have to do to see that statement holds meaning is scroll through my other reviews and see that the enemies to lover’s trope...

7 Songs that...

snow-dance-alana-tousignant.jpg (900×675) (fineartamerica.com) Dear Reader,  This is a book blog, with a strange amount of Taylor Swift references sure, but a book blog still.  Today, I choose to write about music!  These songs, the 7 favourites and 3 honourable mentions I have picked are unexplainably attached to my mind. In this blog, I try to explain.  Let's get started:  1. "Heroes" by David Bowie  Despite my adoration of Bowie, who I own 1/2 of his discography on vinyl,  several vintage collectors magazines of, and 4 thrifted posters hung up in my room of- my attachment to this song, funnily enough sprung from my love of a book- so I would say is a great number one for easing my regular readers into this change of brand (don't worry this is a one time thing). To those who have digested the novel/film: The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky, you will know the scene where these characters, some of my all time favourites, drive through a ...

Before the coffee gets cold a book talk (Non-spoiler! You're welcome)

Before the Coffee Gets Cold: Amazon.co.uk: Kawaguchi, Toshikazu, Trousselot, Geoffrey: 9781529029581: Books Dear Reader,  This review will not contain spoilers, so feel free to read if you haven't yet read the book, and with that let's begin:  These stories definitely build in intensity as you plough on, with subtly building engagement. The first two stories for me provided little interest, a point at which usually I would choose to DNF and call my loses. However, something about the writing, simple but almost translucent into the lives of these individuals, gave me the impression that it had more to give despite the seemingly stagnant story endings.  I think the best way to describe my growth to loving this book is recognising the beauty within its simplicity. As a predominantly YA reader myself, I couldn't help but expect this book to tie up in a perfect interloping knot at the end. My hope of this, I see now, may have blinded me to the crystal  humanity being bare...
