TLDR: 4/5 stars, unnecessary trope of fake-dating, but sweet romance. I don’t often read gay romance—or any romance for that matter—even though I’ve written one myself. But I’ve seen the cover of this one around so much that I figured I’d give it a go ...more |

TLDR: 5/5 stars, gut wrenchingly tragic and very well written. Growing up, I’ve watched some youtube conspiracy theory videos about Britney and her conservatorship, so I was aware at least of the things that fans thought happened to her. Hearing this ...more |

TLDR: 4.7/5 stars; may not be the highest achievement of literature, but made me feel things all the same. Your own mortality is something you don't often want to think about for too long. I know it's been a source of great anxiety for me, ever since ...more |

TLDR: 4.2/5 stars; good in theory and concept, though predictable and uncomfortable in reality. 1984 has long been one of my favorite novels, so I was hopeful for animal farm to give me a similar feeling. Orwell is known for his thought provoking work ...more |

TLDR: 4.3/5 stars, different approach to the "normal" plot progression that worked well. The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera is one that caught my attention with its cover. The very simple design of the line art dog on the big, white sp ...more |
