This book was an easy read. I felt her first hand real life experience was comical and could be relatable to some readers who may have had similar experiences.

V.E. Schwab has been on my TBR list ever since This Savage Song was released, but I hadn't gotten around to reading anything by her yet (so many books, so little time). I picked up the Extraordinary graphic novel, and really liked the storyline. It reminded me a little of The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman mixed with the Harper Connolly series by Charlaine Harris. I love fantasy/dystopian, and this story made me want to move Schwab's novels up on my reading list.

This book had so many original concepts that I would give it five stars on a scale of five just for that The concepts range from what might happen after a first contact with another world to string theory to glimpses of Chinese culture. Those with a science or math background will absolutely love this book. No such background, like me? No problem - this books gives you a glimpse into the China of the Cultural Revolution and the suffering of its citizens during those turbulent years. I highly recommend this book, which is the first book of a trilogy.

Made you think about how we impact each other's lives.

My first step into the fantasy realm. I’m addicted.

Love

Love love love anything Emily Henry and this was no exception. Had me in tears due to the easy relatibality of the characters and story.

I really love books by J.L. Armentrout. Her writing can sometimes be cringeworthy but for the most part her world building is good and her characters are super likeable. I'm particularly in love with Roth. He's the perfect bad boy love interest for this series. The trope of "He doesn't like anyone but me" is one of my favorites. Cheesy but oh well! I have already read the spinoff series from this one. I think this series might be a little bit better so far but it could just be the fact that now I've got some blanks filled in (my fault for reading them out of order). These books remind me of moms romance novels but in a good way. I would definitely love to finish the series.
