Review: 2020 on Goodreads

2020 on Goodreads 2020 on Goodreads by Various
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I don't even know how to describe 2020 because it was quite a year.

Shitty, sucking, horrible not even a little. I hated this year not only because she robbed me from the most stable thing in my life which us reading but because I lost some close to my heart people.

So zero stars to the year but 5 stars to some books that made the anxiety, the pain and the fear of the unknown a little bit bearable.

Review: Leo

Leo Leo by Jay McLean
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 stars!

An absolute amazing read!


“You have no idea how much it hurts to want you as much as I do.”I close my eyes and breathe, allow myself this moment. Even if it’s all a lie. I let him hold me under twinkling lights, on the first and only date we’ll ever have. Because as much as it may hurt him to want me, it hurts me more that I can’t want him back. That I can’t love him the way my heart does.”

Review: Credence

Credence Credence by Penelope Douglas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

description

descriptionSometimes the clouds aren’t enough, I guess. We need the whole damn storm.”

I don't even know how to proceed without spoiling the story but if age gaps is a no go for you, believe me, it's going to be the least of your worries.

descriptionI want you to know that no matter where you go,” he tells me between kisses, “you’ll always be ours. We’re your home.”


description

descriptionTiernan is a pulse in the house. She’s the pulse.”



This book is the definition of everything forbidden. Nothing and no one is off-limits. Six months, one girl, three alpha males and a lot to learn.


descriptionLust, learn, and love,” ...“My mother said the first boy—or man—is a crush. You think you love them, but what you really love is how they make you feel. It’s not love. It’s lust. Lust for attention. Lust for danger. Lust to feel special.” “The second is to learn about yourself.”“And number three?” I ask, “Love.” She snatches the bottle away. “When the lessons of your weakness with number one and your selfishness with number two sink in, and you find a medium. When you know who you are and you’re ready to welcome everything he is, and you’re not afraid anymore.”

Review: Release

Release Release by Aly Martinez
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

5 stars!

“I can’t do this without you.” “Do what?” He lifted one shoulder in a half shrug. “Breathe.”


Aly Martinez is hands down one of the best authors who write angsty stories in an amazing unforgettable way.

The story of Thea and Ramsey wasn't a simple friends to lovers one, it was a second chance at life, at love, at healing and at the beauty of sacrifice.

“There was never a day when I didn’t want you to be mine, Sparrow. I just loved you enough to hope you wouldn’t have to be.”

A journey of tears and heartbreak laced with all the feels.

“Sometimes you have to let go of the life you planned in order to live the one you’re given. Things are going to be different, Ramsey. But different doesn’t have to be bad.”

Review: The Guy on the Left

The Guy on the Left The Guy on the Left by Kate Stewart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

All the FREAKING stars!

“There’s no story if you give up.”


I never imagined I would fall fearcely in love with a story where the heroine is older than the hero. That thing was a No No for me until Kate Stewart broke that rule and made The Guy on the Left one of the best 2019 books.

Clarissa and Troy both made unforgivable mistakes but those mistakes and those imperfections brought a love so messy but so raw and real.

“Wanting this woman is torture. Loving this woman is fucking humiliating. This shit has to end, but lately, I can’t seem to breathe without the air scraping the rawness in my chest. The hurt only fuels my anger. I’m drowning in resentment, teetering on the brink of love and hate for her. All of that effort, everything I did to earn my family, was for nothing.”

It's because of such stories that I'm so in love with books. Thank you Kate Stewart for making me fall in love with a character I thought wasn't worth loving.
