this was so fun! a collection of short stories (dread pennies), some were included in the previous books in this series and since i started reading these books so long ago, it was fun to reread some of them. but the new additions were also super interesting. it was just a good addition to the series altogether!

as far as classics go, this one is actually quite enjoyable. i thought the writing style was so interesting and not hard to read as other classics can be. overall, the meaning in this book is hard to miss and i think it made it more interesting to me.

this was really so moving and tragic. it wasn't so much enjoyable as just so deep and emotional. the interwoven stories of these women across decades were so interesting. i don't really have much to say about it overall. would recommend it solely for how meaningful it is.

giving this four stars because there were some parts that i didn't like even though i was OBSESSED with this book in middle school. it was still super fun to reread and i'm happy i still really enjoyed it after all this time. some of the characters were dislikable at some moments, more so than i remembered them being. since i'm such a character-focused reader, i think this messed with my opinion a bit more than it might have for others. overall, still a super good book and great for the start of summer!

this was on my enno vatti top 100 books list so i decided to pick it up, i never read it as a child so it was honestly really fun to read. don't have much to say because it is a children's book but overall just a fun experience lol

finally finished this one! was so busy last week i could barely read but i thought this was a great end to the series.

so fun to get back into this series! i love the overarching mystery in each book but how each one delves into specific characters and plots. i FELT for gemma in the beginning and i was unsure how barnabus would come back from that but i would say he groveled a good amount. besides the lowkey random nature of uncovering his feelings, it was a solid romance between the two. the cliffhanger was also crazy! only one more to go!

finally done with this series!!! i actually liked this one a bit more than the last couple so ending with a bang (as much of a bang that a not good hockey series can go off with).

leave my girl ash alone, she's been through too much omg. 
but seriously how is every single person in this book getting engaged and having kids? they are all fresh out of college (or still in college). like hello? anywho only one more book until i'm done with this series!

i just didn’t like this. i didn’t love the first two books in this series either but this one was just not my vibe at all. i don’t really know why but i just didn’t like this book, and it felt really cringey at times, sorry!
