Strange, seductive, amd beautifully written. I cant say I understood the wreckoning I just experienced, but I 100% want more!
Ms Lovelace knows how to weave a story full of life affirming lessons, and this read was no different. Every poem has a corresponding art rendered for the soft and fierce hearted. It's a lovely collection.
not what i was expecting but not bad either, bit rushed if anything, that insta love thing was never my go to
This was wonderful. Unlike stories Ive read before. It kept me engaged with a full cast of interesting and lovable characters.
So heartfelt! This one was hard to get through, but Nick and Charlie persevered. Some heavy topics covered inside but just knowing the support system that Charlie has is enough to know everything will turn out okay. Also I loved the mini comic series at the end of the book. So looking forward to book 5 and the next re-read and binge watch of heartstopper!!
enjoyed the different stories in this one, would recommend highly any of Gaiman's Batman gn's.
intriguing storytelling, impeccable artistry, one of the most beautiful sci-fi fantasy graphic novels I've read.

Never will I Ever!!
OMG, so overtly gross, and so inadequately penned.
Made my eyes bleed.
OMG I'm not crying...you're crying!
This was a wonderful read! So completely different to what I normally read and definitely not something I should've chosen for myself given my history. Let's just say Gilda was a little too familiar....
Lovely. Emotional. Introspective. Def recommend.
A rather weird story that came across disconnected at times. Simultaneously strange and creepy.
Such a satisfying read! Only my second read with an unreliable narrator and I was suprised at the amount of empathy I felt for the characters. Not quite as edge of your seat as other thrillers I've read, but makes up for it with the mystery.
This one didn't grab me like the first one. But damn did it hook me with that ending. Dammit.
Thank you @NetGalley for the advanced reader's copy of Anxious People by Frederik Backman, this is my honest review.
“People want to be good. Deep down. Kind.” - Chapter 27
I'm finding difficulty putting my feelings together for this one, I have so many. To me deep down, this book highlights the positives in humanity, and exemplifies the truths that we all seek. All of us want to be accepted for who we are and to find kinship in those around us. Every one of us has experienced moments where we are distraught or feel like we've hit the end of the road, moments where we don't quite know what to do or don't want to go on. Backman's book Anxious People takes decisions made in these moments and exposes the importance of these decisions for both ourselves and those our decisions effect.
I loved this book with my whole heart. Backman tends to have this effect on me. His writing style is so light and his thoughts so heavy, that I found myself rotating between outright cackling and tearing up.
I need more of this kinda story in my life. It was adorable, and funny, and I wish there were twelve more at least!
