I received a surprise email regarding this bookmail, but I thought it would be in 2 weeks at most, but it arrived a few days after the email was sent. Nevertheless, I was really excited and decided to film a reel.

I'm not really good with reel videos, but I'm just so excited to show and post this unvoxing right away 😆

The box contains a lot of extra gifts, such as fans, cute shades, nameplates, a bookmark, a book card, and of course my favourite, the book itself. I didn't expect the book to be this BIG, but it was so PRETTY ♡

Read the e-arc last month, it was full of drama, rated it 4⭐️. If you're interested in my review, you can find it on my profile, I posted a review last month, so check it out ♡

Many thanks to @prhinternational for free e-copy via #NetGalley. @getunderlined - 𝙇𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙖 𝙇𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙎𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙗𝙮 𝙂𝙖𝙗𝙧𝙞𝙚𝙡𝙖 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙨 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐(5/5) Like a Love Song is lovely and cute YA romance that revolves around Natalie a Brazilian pop-star who has to fake date to better her image but it soon turns into real forever feeling that helps her find herself and reconnect with her culture and family. The story is about embracing roots and culture, dealing with pressure of fame, family, friendship, and love. Netalie isn’t instantly likable character. As story progressed her character starts shinning more and more. It was amazing to see how being with William and fake dating developed her character,made her want to be herself without changing anything about her and reconnecting with her family in Brazil, and accept her culture and even her Brazilian name.  William is cute, totally adorable and developed character. I could relate with his love for his family and financial struggle. Best part of the book is Netalie’s struggle and her development and romance. So far fake dating trope is hit or miss for me but this made me fall for this trope. Overall, Like a Love Song is heartwarming, fluffy and adorable YA romance with fake dating trope and forced proximity arc. I highly recommend this if you like, YA romance fake dating trope forced proximity arc brazilian main character theme of dealing with pressure of fame, embracing roots and culture diverse story exploring identity - 𝙌𝙊𝙏𝘿- Which is your favorite Fake Dating Romance? .... #LikeaLoveSong #GabrielaMartins #YA #YABook #YAreader #YAromance #fluffyromance #fakedatingromance #fakedatingtrope #forcedproximityarc #Brazilianmaincharacter #diversebook #bookaboutpressureoffame #Underlined #Delacorte #prhinternational #penguinrandomhouse #romance #contemporary #indianbookstagram #bookreview #booksteacupandreviews #bookcommunity #bookgram #bookbloggerofIg #booksofig #bookaesthetic #bookblogger #bookphotography via @preview.app https://www.instagram.com/p/CZhgPsePhAh/?utm_medium=tumblr

✨Book Review & Rec: STRONGER, FASTER, and MORE BEAUTIFUL by @arwenelysdayton ✨ . 🎊Massive thanks to @prhinternational for sending me an e-copy of the book. I’m thrilled to be a part of the bloggers’ team. #partner 💕 . 📝This book consists of 6 short stories, each demonstrating the endless possibilities of what cyborgs are capable of and beyond. The author’s writing style and storytelling skill will keep you on the edge of your seat from the first page till the last. And leave you wanting more long after finishing the book. . 🧡My favorite part is that this book changes my thoughts on cyborgs. As invincible as cyborgs seem, their process of becoming a part of us bears a resemblance to ours, which makes me feel so proud to be a human. After all, the entire story indeed makes me much stronger, faster, and more beautiful. . 🙌🏼HIGHLY RECOMMEND this book to both sci-fi and non sci-fi lovers. Believe me, you’ll love it as soon as you pick it up. . 👉🏼Full review: https://readingwithjax.wordpress.com/2019/02/05/read-to-review-stronger-faster-and-more-beautiful-by-arwen-elys-dayton-bonus-mini-playlist/#more-5359 . #bookreviews #prhinternational #partner #arwenelysdayton #strongerfasterandmorebeautiful #bookreviewers #bookbloggers #booklove #readersforlife #bookrecs #scifi #youngadult #bookish #mustread #booklovers #bookworms #instabooks https://www.instagram.com/p/Bthbe-qn5tH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3i9kw8i5073q

Jacqueline Woodson - Red at the Bone

When Iris gets pregnant at the age of fifteen, she only takes in the fact that she and her boyfriend Aubrey are going to have a baby. What this really means for her life, she cannot assess at that moment. Sixteen years later, her daughter Melody is having her coming-of-age-party wearing the dress that was once meant for her mother. Not just Iris’s life takes another road with the unexpected kid, also her parents’ plans and of course those of Aubrey and his family change due to the new situation and all of them also have to face the world outside their family bubbly where not everybody is totally understanding. A novel about family bonds and about what influence a single human being can have on how you live your life.

 Jacqueline Woodson has chosen a discontinuous mode of narration. Not only does she spring back and forward chronologically, but she also gives different characters a voice and also has a 3rd person narrator tell parts of the plot. This makes the whole story quite lively and often unexpected because at the beginning of each chapter you do not know where you are starting from and who is addressing you.

 There are some central topics focussed on, first of all, of course, the teenager falling pregnant. The family manages the situation perfectly, no major fight or disruption arises from Iris’s decision to keep the baby, but it is hard to read about the reactions of her friends and school, even though I would classify it as highly authentic. The only person really struggling with the new-born, yet, is Iris who can never really bond with her daughter. She puts some effort in their relationship, but it is simply never enough and she most certainly suffers from the chances that she in her own perception never had in her life due to becoming a mother that early – admittedly, I had the impression that life could be much worse under these circumstances and Iris had a lot of opportunities to fulfil her dreams.

 Another aspect are the class-related and skin-colour attributed options in life. These do not determine the characters’ fate, yet provide some food for thought as do family relations in general in the novel.

 The novel offers a lot of blind spots, leaves gaps that you have to fill on your own due to the structure of the narration. I actually liked it because it makes you think on after reading and sticking with the book much longer. I also enjoyed Jacqueline Woodson’s style e of writing which is well adapted to the different characters and authentic.

#ad Thank you to @prhinternational for this gifted copy of The Testament. I cannot wait to read it. ☺️ Are you a fan of The Handmaid’s Tale? I admit I haven’t read the book yet, but I’ve seen two seasons of the show and I’m hooked and can’t wait to have time to catch up on the latest. Then after I think it’s time for me to start these books because the story is so compelling and intriguing, all the whole being disturbing and scary. I can’t wait to find out both what happened before and after! 😄 • • • • • • #bookstagram #bibliophile #deskdecor #booklover #bøker #desksetup #bookvibes #bookstagramfeatures #hyggelife #hyggehome #bookworm #readerofinstagram #vscobooks #bookphotograhy #deskspace #igreads #booksbooksbooks #pumpkinseason #autumnreads #bookaesthetic #bookcommunity #influencer #inspiration #bookishlife #mybeigelife #nordicstyle #itsfallyall #huntingforautumn #partner (at Oslo, Norway) https://www.instagram.com/p/B35B42cA0cn/?igshid=57lpc90ykwon

Book Review: A Sorrow Fierce and Falling

Book Review: A Sorrow Fierce and Falling

“It is rare to meet a true lady in this life, much less a true sorcerer. We shall always remember.”

— Jessica Cluess, A Sorrow Fierce and Falling

I would like to thank NetGalley and Penguin Random House International for sending me a free eARC to review! This does not affect my opinion.

Hiya, everyone! I’m back with a review, and this time, it’s for the last book I have come to love and adore. If…

[bookishandawesome]

I recently finished an ARC of THE SACRIFICE BOX by @martin_j_stewart (thank you @prhinternational!) and here is a short review: Moody and atmospheric, THE SACRIFICE BOX is a look on friendship and childhood and wanting a way out. It is gripping, and the author thoughtfully balances spooky and disquieting with well-placed humor. I also think the use of the physical manifestations of fears and other messed up things in the dark recesses of the human mind is a clever metaphor for how tangible and crippling our fears—our painful, deepest fears—can sometimes feel. Reminiscent of ‘It’ and Stephen King in general, I definitely recommend Stewart’s sophomore novel for fans of the genre. ——— Side note: I had the boldness to read this at 3am. Nope. Do not do this kids. I had to rewatch my favorite scenes from ‘To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before.’ ——— #TheSacrificeBox #MartinStewart #VikingBooks #PenguinRandomHouse #youngadult #coffee #booksandcoffee #book #bookworm #bookish #bibliophile #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookphotography #bookblogger #flatlay #iphonography #iphoneonly #takenoniphone #vsco #vscocam #vscophile https://www.instagram.com/p/BnQ-gWaFKS_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=kn68qwnbjzok

✨ ARC REVIEW The Cousins by Karen M. McManus 4⭐

Thank you @prhinternational for the #gifted ARC! 💕

I’m a big fan of thrillers but YA thrillers rarely work for me. The exception for this is the YA thrillers McManus writes. I always enjoy her stories and this one wasn’t the exception.

The story follows three cousins that barely know each other but are all invited to stay and work in their granma’s…

Time for Wrap-Up!

There are a lot of good things that I'm grateful for that happened this month. From our thesis defended, finding amazing reads to receiving an approval of earcs of some of my most anticipated reads 🩶

Long story short, this month has been wonderful to me. Perhaps even better than the last 🩶

Although I still find myself having a few 1-2⭐️ reads and even DNFS, this month is still amazing 🤚🏽

As much as I wanted to post a booksya feature of all of them, I'm afraid I cannot, so I had a blog post for the rest of the novels I read which will be redirected to my goodreads review, you may check it on my Blog Highlight 🩶 I've posted the rest here on booksta, especially those I really did enjoy ✨️

The total number of books I've read this month should have been 28, but the other has a problematic author, so I'm not including that. If you know, you know 🙈

I hope you had a wonderful June month as well, everyone ✨️

I'm reading The Beat Short Stories of 202, a collection of short stories edited by Chimamanda Ngozi Adiechie. First two stories were not for me, I couldn't get half the things but i loved next two. I plan to read 2 stories everyday and hopefully would like to finish it before month end. I have also started Weather Girl by Rachel Lynn Solomon and so far I'm enjoying it.
