Read In June...
We Should Hang Out Sometime by Josh Sundquist -
This is a non-fiction book documenting Josh's almost-girlfriends and why the relationships never went anywhere. I was interested in this as soon as I heard about it as the premise sounded very funny. When I saw it on Audible, I decided it would be even funnier to listen to it on audiobook, and I wasn't wrong. This was a funny book in itself but to have it narrated by Josh himself added so much enjoyment. It did, however, get a little repetitive after a while. 3.5/5
The Heir by Kiera Cass -
The fourth book in The Selection series was one of my most anticipated releases of the year, and after such a struggle to get my hands on it I was desperate to read it as soon as possible. I did really enjoy this book, but I definitely didn't love it as much as I did the first three. As much as I enjoyed the premise, I was not a huge fan of the main character, Eadlyn. 4/5
We All Looked Up by Tommy Wallach -
This was the second book I picked up as part of the Debut Author Challenge, and unfortunately another debut I didn't love. It is about a group of teenagers who are looking to separate themselves from their high school labels before an asteroid hits Earth. This wasn't really what I had expected and I didn't really like any of the characters. It was quite average for me. 2.5/5
Paper Towns by John Green -
This is the one and only book I managed to read for the Summer Biannual Bibliotion, and it was also on my TBR for the month. I wanted to read this before the movie was released as I thought the trailer looked really good. I am not even more excited for the movie as I did actually quite enjoy this book. I was a bit unsure to start with but I really enjoyed the revenge aspect and the mystery. The ending was the only thing I didn't love but I did still enjoy it overall. 4/5
