ARC Review: Tweet Cute by Emma Lord

I received an ARC on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review (Thanks!)

Guys, this book is so freaking WHOLESOME. There are so many scenes where the characters are baking and there were so many good pop culture references (i.e., Mean Girls, Gossip Girl, Taylor Swift). This is a YA rom-com filled with sugary descriptions and memes (yes they fall in love while making MEMES. If this isn't so 2019/20, IDK what is). It is a very sweet PG romance (if you care about the steaminess of the romance).

While this is an adorable love story, it does focus a lot on the characters figuring out what they want to do after high school. It also deals with family issues (specifically feeling like you're living in the shadow of your sibling and how to deal after a divorce).

Overall, Tweet Cute is a wonderful coming of age story perfect for teens today. It perfectly encaptures the current online landscape teens face while creating an adorable teen romance.

Favourite YA Historical Fiction Novels (as of August 2017)

I feel like Historical YA fiction is kind of an underrated genre. YA Dystopian novels used to be huge back in the Hunger Games craze and now YA Fantasy and YA contemporary Romances are popular. A lot of the Historical YA books can run a little young sometimes but here's some of my favourites.

Novella Review: Death and Night by Roshani Chokshi

I received a copy of this novella on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. (Thank you!) Rating: 3.5 stars. The fact that this author made me feel all the feels and laugh in a 100 page novella tells a lot about how awesome Roshani Chokshi is. This novella is about Maya and Amar, the main characters of The Star-Touched Queen by Roshani Chokshi . In this novella, they are known as Night and Death. It describes how they first fell in love and gives you a bit of background about the characters featured in The Star-Touched Queen . I absolutely loved the dialogue! It was either very witty or very romantic but all in all, it was freaking beautiful. The only reason I didn't absolute love this novella is that there were some pretty confusing parts. Night is both a person and a state of being. Sometimes the descriptions of what Night was doing were really difficult to wrap my head around. If you loved either A Crown of Wis...

ARC Review: Stay Sweet by Siobhan Vivian

Rating: 3 stars. I received an ARC via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. (Thank you!) Stay Sweet is a book about ice cream, friendship and feminism. The main character Amelia is tasked this summer with keeping the town's famous ice cream stand open after tragedy strikes. She has to work with the owner's nephew, a cute college boy, and struggles to maintain her friendship with her best friend. What I really liked about this book was Amelia's emotional growth. She starts the book almost kind of whiny. Amelia doubts her ability to be a leader, doesn't think that she's very fun, and is wondering why she was chosen to be the manager of the ice cream stand. As the book progresses, Amelia discovers her passions and becomes more confident, which I really loved seeing. I also really liked the diary entries from the owner of the ice cream when she started making ice cream during WW2. I did feel like there was a point where there were too many, but I do real...
