For a book that’s entire thing revolves around the library of Alexandria, not going to Alexandria seems really stupid. This book basically is all vibe, no plot. It was good in the sense that the characters were developed, the premise holds true to the book, and the writing is awesome. But there are so many things I don’t like: for example, booktoo talked about how the magic system is very science based, but no it’s not. There’s this huge physics thing two characters just handle, like it doesn’t even happen on screen they just do it, like drinking a cup of tea. I-idk it was ok. Not worth the hype

This book is nothing like it’s premise: it’s about feminism and speaking out and, as the title says, not needing to be liked. The mc- Eliza Quan, writes a manifesto expressing her anger about losing the battle for chief editor against an under qualified boy in her school, ranting about sexism and it’s numbers in her school. The private manifesto gets posted and people shame her for it. In a wild series of events, she gains momentum for her movement to end sexism in her school and in the process, falls in love. It’s a good book with developed characters and strong relationships.

This was so cute, what the heck???!!
Red white and royal blue, follows Alex, the first son of the first US prez, who falls in love with Prince Henry of Walwe. They date. Stuff happens, international drama. American elections. But the cutest of all of it.
