Such a lovely feel-good YA romance centred around D&D! I loved the characters in this, and wish there was more of them. I particularly loved the comic book shop scenes and anything featuring grandma Barbara.

I really enjoyed reading about Nesta and Cassian throughout the book, but I must admit, I found Nesta insufferable at the start. The middle part of the book was my favourite for sure once Nesta starting being a better human being. The ending was great, though felt very rushed. I feel like it should've been spread out by at least three chapters more. Other than that, a fun time and I hope SJM writes the next book ASAP!

Took me over a year to get past the start of this book, but once I did I really enjoyed it. I listened to the audiobook alongside reading it and I was impressed by its range of topics. 'Stolen Focus' tells the story of the author's interest in attention span and focus and his tech-free life for a while. He then goes on to interview many scientists and researchers about various causes for increased attention deficiency in modern society. I particularly enjoyed his sections about sleep and free play for children. I also was surprised to hear about how some people have exaggerated role of genetics regarding ADHD with twin studies.
