Listed in no specific order since I can’t choose which one I Liked the most. They’ve all touched me so deeply, made me Laugh, shiver and cry in different ways. My Small reviews on these books aren’t professional at all, They’re just for anyone who might want something good to read. I recomend all of these!
“Carry On” by Rainbow Rowell
It just has it all! Magic, an awesome girl of colour, confused teens, angsty situations, drama, action, love and a gay main character. The protagonist Simon Snow is one of the most Relatable boys, he just wants to help everyone and be there, doing his best, but having been (in some aspects) cursed with an overwhelmingly amount of power he can’t control, he tried to live with this burden of being the “chosen one” which isn’t easy. A great evil is loose who has to be stopped, but that’s hard when you still have School to attend to and an arch nemesis roommate who could ruin it all. I’m just so happy that the second book “Wayward Son” comes put Soon, I can’t wait!
“What if it’s us” by Adam Silvera and Becky Albertalli
Heart Warming, funny, filled with emotions of every kind. You know an lgbt book is Well written when you love the straight friend. Ben and Arthur deserves each other right from the start, but with so many obstacles in New York, it surely makes it hard for Them. The Universe sometimes seems to be after them with all the drama that occures. It’s hard to find love and ecspecially if you have a time limit, Arthur only staying in New York for the summer, so he and Ben have to make the most of it.
I Think I spilled a few tears on the last pages while Reading. This book is truly about unfairness in a society where there’s a bug gap between Rich and poor. Orphans are taken in and made to become a proxy, which means they belong to a wealthy person Called a patron. If the patron gets in trouble, the proxy gets the punishment. In a dystopic future filled with New and advanced technology, an action filled adventure suddenly takes place for Sydney and Knox, who are forced to get on the run, stamped as terrorists. All Syd wanted was to stay off the radar, but his patron Knox, the Rich pretty boy suddenly gets in an accident which causes his World to be flipped upside down in a matter of hours. Incredibly written, had me on the edge of my seat every step of the way. Knox’ accident happened the same day Sydney is suddenly outed as a chapter 11 (gay) in front of all of his class mates and even his crush. Sometimes all this fancy Technology Can do more harm than good, and they certainly learn that the hard Way. Is there a Way to take down the system and let all the other proxies free?
“The Universe versus Alex Woods” by Gavin Extence
Meet the quirky young boy named Alex Woods who’s too hit in the head with a meteor. That exact accident has such a Big affect on Alex throughout this book and his life. At only 11 years old, He’s been in the media all over England, famous in his own town aswell. But Alex isn’t your typical 11 year old boy, he finds it Way easier to connect and befriend adults than kids his own age. Certain events leads to him becoming the best friend of an old retired veteran, who at first dont want anything to do with Alex, but his mother forces him to spend a little time with him. They develope a beautiful friendship over years which left me with a good feeling inside.
“Will Grayson Will Grayson” by John Green and David Levithan
I always love to read a book written by two authors, seeing their different writing style and how they make a character so personal. This book is about two (very) different boys who share the same name and of course fare has it that they eventually meet under Odd circumstance. One Will is the socially awkward boy we all know and love, with a friend Called Tiny who loves musicals (He’s not tiny in the slightest) and the other Will is a homosexual emo boy who tries to find love online. At some point he does fine someone, but could it be a catfish? You never know.
“They both die at the end” by Adam Silevera
This book has brought me to tears more times than I Can count while Reading through it. Only a few pages in and I Got teary eyed. What would you do if you Got a Call that told you, you are gonna die today? There’s no Way to know when Exactly and how, only that you are at the end of the Line and you’re gonna die. Is it fair when the 18 year old Mateo gets a Call like this? Or 17 year old Rufus? This exact Call is what brings these two together, wanting to live out their last day since both of them doesn’t have much family nor friends. Both boys are healthy so there’s no Way to tell what will kill Them in the end. That’s what gets Mateo paranoid, he could fall down the stairs in his apartment building and break his neck! Or the bookcase in his bedroom could fall over him and crush his body. So what would you do? Live your life like it’s the last of course.
