The author went into detail with her writing, it was raw. For me it made me a bit uncomfortable🫠

I have loved the world of Little Miss and Mr Men since I was young. This book however was extremely disappointing, it seemed like the writer didn't know what he was doing because it just didn't make sense at all.

I would definitely recommend this book to those who love reading spicy books and enjoyed the pages I have read. 

There is no problem with the book, it's just my taste in books has changed this year.

I really loved this poetry book, you can tell the writer but a lot of their soul and passion into their poems, I could relate and feel every word.

There were poems that made me laugh and smile...however there were poems that made no sense and were confusing. But overall this was a good read.

I enjoyed this book, I liked the representation of Athena and how she didn't meet the standard beauty standards. The chemistry between the main leads was great and it had moments of humor. 

However there were sometimes where I did lose interest, it took a while to warm up to.

I really enjoyed reading this book, the chemistry of the characters and even the build up of their relationship; I loved how you got the insight into the main leads backgrounds and how that interlinks with their decisions. 

However, this book did take me a really long time to finish. I feel like it didn't have to be that thick of a book, I had to take several breaks.
