Ruin Me // Michael Clifford (on Wattpad) https://my.w.tt/tXvPIFIQr6 When Lydia turned eighteen, all she wanted was to move on from her hometown and live a normal college life. When she meets Michael, a member of the biggest frat on campus, her life is turned upside-down. Though she knows she should stay away from him, he continues to surprise her. Maybe he doesn't need to live up to his reputation; maybe Lydia can be the one to see who he really is.

March reads: march has been rough guys first off cresent city came out and I couldnt get over my book hangover so I read it again. Yep. Then the coronavirus shit escalated quickly and it took me a bit to dive back into reading.

The last book I read in march was Imagine Me(ups dropped it off and a few hours later I was done with it). It was a great books! I'm sad the story's over but I feel like it finished well. I'll miss this characters. Imagine me had some weird spots but overall I really enjoyed it. The second to last chapter, not including the epilogue, DESTROYED ME. Dead. Just. Dead.

PSA:

Do yourself a favor and read Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston. Like, now. Seriously. It has: 

a biracial, bisexual protagonist

an aboslutely adorable “i would die for them” romance

FANTASTIC and unexpected side romances 

interesting family dynamics and loads of supportive siblings/friends

minor political drama

british people

fluff for days

also addresses actual issues

the power to make you smile no matter how shitty your day has been (speaking from experience)

Me: I HATE romance.

Also me: If this book doesn’t have someone falling in love I’m not reading it.

“Many boys will bring you flowers. But someday you’ll meet a boy who will learn your favorite flower, your favorite song, your favorite sweet. And even if he is too poor to give you any of them, it won’t matter because he will have taken the time to know you as no one else does. Only that boy earns your heart.”

— Leigh Bardugo, Six of Crows

I finally “finished” my bookshelves, I’m pretty happy with the end product.

It’s kind of incredible how I can be continuously disappointed by almost every single book-to-movie adaptation, and still somehow get my hopes up every time a new one is announced that maybe - just maybe - this will be the one that finally works.
