1. What you would expect - I’m not usually the full on romantic book type, but this one got recommended to me so I thought I’d try it out. . I understand that it’s just a fictional novel lol, but the whole time I read it I couldn’t stop thinking about how unrealistic and crazy the main idea was. . It’s just really basic (kinda reminds me of old teen dramas from childhood that didn’t make a whole lot of since but you still watched)

1. Fantastic! Highly Recommended! - Loved this adorable story! This was light and fun as well as warm and fuzzy. Laughing and swooning and maybe some floating along with Claudia over Chris carried me through this story way to fast. Everywhere else in the whole town of Corrigan Falls Chris Winslow was large and in charge, but in the library it was Claudia's' ice rink and he had to play by her rules in their study bubble. I love Chris and Claudia together, and loved that it was written in dual POV, giving us all the nitty gritty that they are thinking and feeling and it was fantastic. Chris is a friendly, laughing, golden God, who is on the Raiders Hockey OHL semi-pro junior hockey team, who needs some help in chemistry and advanced functions class. Claudia Waring is wicked smart, super serious, very goal oriented and needs more extracurriculars for a guaranteed acceptance to the engineering program at the University of Waterloo. Always has been one to stay focused and on track, when she is given the task to tutor a senior student that is having trouble in two classes, she is swept off track by the golden God Chris and the social ladder that she has climbed up simply by being in his vicinity. Loved the Sisterhood of Awesomeness and that they challenged each other to be more awesome, with even two boys who join in the Sisterhood to make it even better. This is my first Cate Cameron book and I am hooked. Fantastically Awesome story. Get it now! Highly recommended! Received a copy through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

2. decent book - the beginning had me fascinated; pretty much the reason why i wanted to read it. it took me awhile to like the main part, though; cause it had been my first time reading something about track. the ending kind of made me disappointe cause it left us on a cliffhanger. overall, pretty decent book. good job, Jason

3. Ghost - When I started reading this book it was kind of boring, but the only reason I keep going was because the author made it so I could picture each character perfectly. After that everything was amazing, it was like the author described every detail and made me feel like I was in the book like I was the boy. Like I was ghost. I got hooked in the end of the book. I almost cried because the author kept me hooked on this book and ended it so quickly. But then I realized that it was probably to let the reader think. Think, if that were me would I win? Should I continue this story in my mind. This book was perfect and is now one of my favorite books I highly recommend this book to any readers out there because I promise you. It's worth it!

1. Wonderful - This is a wonderful wholesome YA read. It's a light, fun read with very little angst and some really great characters. Dylan Dennings, who had his heart crushed in a prior book, has a plan for the future. Rule - no girls. Rule - work hard at baseball and get his career kick started. No college plans for him. Lucy Foster has plans for the future too but dealing with right now is taking all she's got. Her father is called away on an unexpected reserve deployment leaving her with the responsibility of helping her mother out in the shop and at home. Lucy is the complete opposite of Dylan. She's fun loving, spontaneous, and free spirited. He's a planner, determined, and a rule follower. Together they balance each other out but is Dylan willing to break his number rule?? Fun read that I definitely recommend.

1. I found a connection in Danny which I’ve never found before. - I read this book as an assignment for my young adult literature class though I wasn’t expecting to relate so much to this. As a Mexican American girl, ironically enough also named Dani rather than Danny, I found such a deep connection and understanding with Danny that I’ve never had with a character in a book before. It was as if I was reading a book written about myself with only a few details swapped. I empathized with Danny’s inability to speak Spanish, with the feeling of being an outsider in his own family, and even the silent heartbreak which led him to self harm. I don’t think I have ever read a book that so fully encompassed my childhood as this one has.

1. Disappointing ending to an otherwise great series. - The Field Party Series has been one of my favorite series by Abbi Glines, but this last book was disappointing. It felt very rushed and instead of getting closure and enjoying everyone’s HEA’s, I was left with many unanswered questions. A couple of storylines were thrown in there so randomly and then never brought up again, which makes me wonder why they were included in the first place. For example, Ezmita sees Asa at her parent’s shop hugging “a tall, leggy, gorgeous blonde” but the woman was never mentioned again and there was no explanation for her appearance in the story. Some parts felt very unrealistic and were hard to enjoy, like the way Nash and Tallulah were already making out before addressing the drama that happened between them. However, as I mentioned before, this series has always been a favorite and the first three books will always be comfort books for me. That is why I’m rating it stars. Overall, this series holds a special place in my heart but sadly, I’m dissatisfied with the ending.

1. Very Good - I literally read this book every night and finished it in about five nights! This book is amazing to read. It took my in like a hook. Its all about following your dreams and learning to enjoy new things. Although there is challenges ( McKenna hurting her ankle ) you can always try your best. This book definitely gave me a lot of confidence! I would recommend it absolutely.

1. Couldn’t even finish it - I mean don’t get me wrong I love abbi Gaines books with a passion but the reason why I read is because I want to get away from life so her bringing in COVID which is like real life stuff is just so annoying. I hate reading about that, like who wants to remember those times where we couldn’t go out and stuff. Like seriously can we stop putting it in books and movies, I need my escape to have nothing to do with real life.

Honestly I care much 'bout the Sleepaway Girls part, I just cared about how awesome Cole was! But that part was required to tie it all in. Best book I've ever read!

1. Great - It was great. It showed the perspective of a young teen fighting through her issues. Which was awesome. In ghost they talked about patina but you didn't know much about her. But I was left on a cliffhanger. Which Jason rebuilds does that to keep me interested. So now I'm going to go buy sunny.

2. Great YA series! - This series continues to be one of my most anticipated high school series. I loved Wicked Bay and the young adults of the Prince-Stone family. In this story we get a glimpse at Kyle and Laurie's relationship and if they will be strong enough to continue their relationship into college. Sometimes secrets have a way of destroying everything. Kyle and Laurie navigate their relationship to find what is most important to them - each other. These books are pretty hot for high school relationships, but that doesn't bother me. This series is well thought out with intriguing characters that I can't get enough of. I absolutely can't wait to see what the next book brings and who's story we will get more of! There is so many directions that Ms. Cotton could take this group and I will say that I am here for the entire ride!

3. stars - I really love Kyle. Can’t get enough of him. The person I could do without was Laurie. I did not care for her at all. I felt that Kyle could have done better and would benefit by being with someone else. I needed to understand why she was the way she was. I got my explanation and I did feel for her. I still don’t care for her but I don’t dislike her as much as I did before. I can now tolerate her since she is who Kyle wanted to be with.

4. Great book - What a great book!! Loved to read about Kyle. His journey surprised me. Was not what i was expecting, but loved it. Knowing your not approved of, knowing you’ve been lied to, and trying to protect love is always hard. I read this book voluntarily for an honest review. This series has sucked me under. I cant wait to read the next book! Enjoy

1. The Final Four - A fantastic read for any young hoops junky, or for anyone who enjoys a dive into the hearts and minds of young competitors. I personally am a middle-aged hoops junky and, nonetheless, loved this book. Volponi's Final Four captures the tension and drama of an epic final four game, and weaves in flashbacks in each of the key players lives throughout the story: The rage, arrogance and selfishness of a "one and done" freshman from the projects soon headed for the NBA draft lottery; the soul of his foil, a scrappy and heady point guard from war-torn Zagreb, Croatia; the experiences of their teammates from a variety of backgrounds and circumstances. Ultimately, all the characters are changed by being a part of something larger than themselves in the crucible of the final four. The events and outcomes are real enough that one does not have to suspend disbelief or write this book off as a cute young adult-only book (although it certainly is appropriate for that age group). Four Stars from this middle aged hoops junky and avid reader!

1. Good book - It was a good book but did anyone else notice that the paraphrase of it is totally copying the iconic line from things I hate about you?? That part really bothered me lol. The whole plot I would say reflects that of the film. It totally isn’t the same but if you are looking you can see the similarities. All that to say I did enjoy reading it so I give it stars.

2. I Hate You Fuller, James - I absolutely adore this book. I read it in two days and that’s saying a lot. Because I’m one of those people who used to love reading until, the teachers started making you read those boring books. This is the first good book I’ve read in years. I think I’m rediscovering my love for reading.

1. Excellent story - I am not a sports fan, but I appreciate how well written the details were. The story kept me intrigued all the way until the end. A refreshing story of a high school kid coming out. I hesitated at first because I'm in my early s, but it turned out to be well worth the read! Recommend for sure!!
