IF YOU ARE NOT OUTRAGED BY WHAT IS HAPPENING THEN THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH YOU BECAUSE THIS IS INHUMANE....
God, im actually physically stressed over CLC’s comeback because they really deserve to win (they’re long overdue) and if they don’t I worry about them.
Please, girl group stans, please help hype up CLC this comeback!!
Books read in 2018 I A Reaper at the Gates by Sabaa Tahir
Strange how monsters can reach from beyond the grave, as potent in death as they were in life.
Would you recommend Luna and the lie? Are you still reading it?? What about other booms by the same author?
Yes I would! Tbh I think I once said holly black was the queen of slowburns but I might have lied lol it’s Mariana Zapata. Like genuinely the slowest of burns. I would definitely recommend her other books, plus it’s kinda cool to see they’re all set in the same universe.
They’re long and usually enemies to friends to lovers. I think of all the books I’ve read from her, Only two are on my dnf list lol.
The wall of Winnipeg and me, one of my favorites. I can go back multiple times to read that one haha. Personal assistant of this super huge super stoic football player quits her job and said football player tries to entice her while also keep his residency by asking her to marry him. “You know more about me than anyone else does.” was what really cut my heart up.
Kulti, that was one that I wasn’t sure I was going to like but ended up really enjoying. The girls soccer team has a new retired player coach and he’s such a hard ass but she takes it in stride bc her MO is being better than she was five minutes ago. They clash a lot then they don’t. “It’s a term of affection in my country. My love. My snail.” Hahaha I started tearing up at that one.
Under Locke, that was different but good different, more intense than the others and is kinda similar to how I felt with Kulti. Her dads a bad guy and she moves in with her brother so he could keep an eye on her, meanwhile getting her a job at a tattoo parlor where the boss is a sorta gang member. “But I'm not a good man, and I'm gonna take everythin' you want to give me and everythin' you don’t.” Oof. My loins.
Luna and the lie, which I thoroughly enjoyed and might be my new favorite. She’s moved away from her crazy dangerous family taking her sisters with her and her newest boss is a hardass who believes he owes her a favor after she lied to the cops for him...except every favor she asks, he insists is not part of the deal. “You haven’t listened to a single fucking thing I’ve said, have you? Seen a single thing I’ve done? You’re the only person who hasn’t put shit together?” Be still my heart.
Wait for it, as most of her books are heartbreaking at some points, this one kinda started out on heartbreak but it was the way she dealed with it that made my heart so soft. After gaining custody of her brothers two sons, she moves to a new town where their new baseball coach/ neighbor is a little resentful of all the attention he usually gets, and becuase of a misunderstanding he thinks she’s just as bad as everyone else who hits on him. “Do you love me?, I asked him like I did every night just to hear him say it.” The kiddos in this were too adorable.
From lukov with love, turned out seriously sweet but I wasn’t surprised. Enemies on ice haha literally. He’s a pretty famous ice skater and she still struggles to reach her goal. He needs a new partner and wants her to be it. “‘We both know you love me.’ I wanted to deny it. I really did. Mostly because I hated the fact that he sounded so smug. But we both knew I’d be lying.” Truly the most enemies to lovers of them all.
Becuase how they’re all slowburns, I got really, really invested haha. Also learned a lot about certain sports and tattooing? And car painting? And uhh motorcycle clubs? Loved the family and friendship dynamics even if some of the family dynamics were so awful I wanted to punch characters through the pages; it was just well thought out and I felt every emotion. The main characters were also pretty badass and hilarious at times, if not a little naïve where it counted. Would definitely recommend if you want a contemporary romance to read and get invested in.
The Seeker.
