Dear Edward By Ann Napolitano

This book made me cry; so many times we watched Edward go though having a family to losing it all in one moment. It was very heartbreaking to me, but also seeing all the people on the plane, meeting them, and getting to know each one of their stories while all-knowing they will eventually die. 😭I really like Edward's aunt & uncle, they took him in even though they were going through their own trials and tribulations. Desperately wanting a child of their own. Lacey and John went through the tragedy of miscarriage after miscarriage. To then finding out, they may never have a child of their own due to Lacey's health.

What stuck with me the most and is the biggest take away from reading this book is the bond and formation of relationships outside of your direct family members that can truly help a person rise through the depths of despair. Edward's relationships with Shay and Principal Arundhi are prime examples of the kindest that all of us have inside. Uniquely, more so was the author's rendition of storytelling. The way she goes from past to present adds a certain "je ne sais quai" to the overall flow of the book, making it fresh and interesting for the mind. I couldn't put the book down! This book is definitely a must-read, one of my favorite books thus far for 2020.

The Project by Courtney Summers

5 star This book gives you an inside look at what it's like to be involved with a colt and the way a colt leader can manipulate other people's minds and souls to the point where they question everything about themselves and the way the world works. This story follows two different timelines involving two sisters, Bea and Lo, You get to read about the path that each sister takes, past and present. This book deals heavily with religion. I personally am not a huge fan of this but I understand why it needed to be in the book. I really did enjoy reading this book. I give it a 5-star rating and I plan on buying a copy when it comes out. Thank you, NetGalley, for putting this book in the read now section. This book is one of my most anticipated released books for 2021

Maddie: Vampires in wonderland book 1 by Candace Robinson & Amber R. Duell

5 star One of the things I love about this book is how different it is from the original movie, which feels like an acid trip. In this book, we have duel perspectives. This is something I really like to see in books. Maddie, aka the mad hatter, and Noah, are both trying to save their sisters from really bad people. I like the fact that In this book the mad hatter is a woman and not a man which I think is very fun. The banter between Maddie and Noah is amazing, which I think helped build the sexual tension between the two of them. The authors added characters, which were not in the original movie, and by doing so the dynamics between some of the characters changed. If you don’t like really steamy sex scenes...

The New Girl vol 1 of elles by Kid Toussain & art by Aveline Stokart

5 star I really liked the way this book tackled the topic of multiple personality disorder. The art style in this graphic novel was stunning it also helped the reader differentiate between all of the different personalities that Elle has throughout this book. There is also a subplot that is a mystery surrounding Elle's family. I can not wait to read the next volume from this series. I am super excited!!!
