Such a Fun Age by Kiley Reid – ♥♥♥♥♥
Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli (re-read) – ♥♥♥♥
Heartstopper Vol.3 by Alice Oseman – ♥♥♥♥♥
A Totally Awkward Love Story by Tom Ellen and Lucy Ivison – ♥♥♥♥
If He Had Been with Me by Laura Nowlin – ♥♥♥♥♥
The Art of Losing by Lizzy Mason – ♥♥♥♥♥
The hype is real, Such a Fine Age was SO. GOOD. When I was ten, Stargirl was one of my favorite books. Once I heard they were doing the movie for Disney+, I knew I had to re-read it beforehand. Alice Oseman’s comic Heartstopper just gets better and better. The Art of Losing was the last book I read this month and it blew me away. I just really connected to it and thought it handled talk of addiction and alcoholism really well.

Harbor Me by Jacqueline Woodson – ♥♥♥♥♥
I read The Bell Jar as a senior in high school and I’ve wanted to re-read it for years. Over ten years later, and I have a new appreciation for it and I love it more now. I’ve been saying for the past three years that I was going to read The Handmaid’s Tale and I finally did it! Now, I have to read the sequel…
