Utopia by Thomas More 3/5

Well I'm still wondering if this is serious or satire... but I liked it anyway!

A lot of these issues are relevant to today's society and I think that it's a bit of both fun and serious. 
Plus who wouldn't love the sweet Ever After's honourable mention of this book.

People Like Us by Dana Mele  4/5

This book was so freaking intense, my heart was hammering pretty much the whole time and I finished it fairly quickly because I needed so badly to understand the mystery. I really like that it went in different directions than I thought it would. And even though it might've been a teensy bit cliche at the end it was perfect. And even though I know everything I'm still sad about the book which means it was good.

Lot's of trigger warnings though if you're sensitive to suicide/bullying.

Sweet Black Waves by Kristin Perez  3.5/5

This was almost a full 4 for me, but it was a little dry and boring in places. Those were really cute though and that's what kept me going.

I don't really like any of the characters, I loved the main character at first but she's growing up and I still love her but boy is she ever making mistakes that I'm so mad right now with the ending that all I can say is that I am eagerly awaiting the sequel.

Nancy Drew & the Hardy Boys- The Big Lie      ✶✶✶
Graphic Novel by Anthony DEl Col & Werther Dell'Edera

I enjoyed this graphic novel but I definitely didn't love it.
It seems more like a prologue to a bigger story which has left me feeling a little unsatisfied.

I absolutely adore the art, I think it's perfect for this story and the noir theme fits perfectly.

Overall worth reading and collecting, I just hope that they make more of them with a huge crazy mystery to solve that's a million times bigger than this.
