Was it a bad book? No. Was it a good book? No. It was pretty mid, and the plot didn’t make much sense to me and the characters were pretty bland but the writing was beautiful.

All About Love: New Visions by bell hooks

Did not finish book. Stopped at 62%.
I’m sorry but I don’t think bell hooks is for me. I didn’t like when she compared coming out about SA to greed for fame and money and I did not like the mention of encouraging her lesbian sister to keep in contact with their homophobic family.

This was such a disappointing read. I never understood the Delilah Bard hate but now I do, this book made me hate her. 

I’ll read book two depending on the reviews, as this doesn’t give me hope. 

Still love VE Schwab, just not this book.

There’s so many words I want to use to describe how much I love this book, but I can’t! Every S.T. Gibson book I’ve read is special to me, I can feel the love and care put into each story and I’m so glad I got a chance to read each one.
