huge book haul! (aka more books to add to my never-ending tbr)

**A Deep Dive into My Upcoming Reads**

As I sit here with my TBR list, I have to say that I'm really excited about the books that are lined up for me over the next few months. It's been a while since I've had a bunch of new releases to look forward to, and I'm eager to dive into some of these stories.

First up is **"Her Secrets" by Monica Murphy**, which seems like a real page-turner. The premise is that the protagonist has a tutor who becomes her love interest, but things get complicated when she discovers that he's been sneaking around behind his best friend's girlfriend's back. I love the sound of this slow burn romance, and I'm intrigued by the fact that the protagonist knows all his secrets. There's something about knowing someone's deepest secrets that can be both exhilarating and terrifying.

Next up is **"Culti" by Mariana Zapata**, which has me a bit nervous but also excited. The premise is that the protagonist was once a huge fan of a soccer player, and she idolized him so much that she even had posters on her wall of him. But now, he's become her coach again, and things have changed. I'm not entirely sure what to expect from this one, but I love Mariana Zapata's writing style, and I've heard great things about her books.

I also recently picked up **"Long Way Home" by Jessica Hastings**, which has a beautiful cover that immediately caught my eye. The premise is that this book is part of the Lancaster crew series, and it seems like it's going to be a real drama-fest with some incredibly toxic characters. I love a good toxic romance, and I'm excited to dive into this one.

Last but not least, there's **"Daisy Hayes: The Great"**, which has a stunning cover that I just can't get enough of. The premise is that this book is the second in the Magnolia Parks series, and it seems like it's going to be a real page-turner with some great characters from previous books making appearances. I'm particularly excited to see more of Daisy and Christian's story.

**My Reading Experience with Mariana Zapata**

I have to admit that I was a bit skeptical about reading Mariana Zapata's books at first. While I've heard great things about her writing style, I didn't quite connect with her previous two books, **" Luca with Love"** and **"The Wall of Winnipeg and Me"**. But despite my initial disappointment, I'm excited to give her another try with **"Culti"**.

I think what's holding me back from loving Mariana Zapata's books is that they often have a very slow burn romance element to them, which can be a bit off-putting for me. However, I've heard that this one might be different, and I'm eager to see if it will win me over.

One thing that does excite me about **"Culti"** is the soccer aspect of the story. The protagonist was once a huge fan of a soccer player, and she idolized him so much that she even had posters on her wall of him. This sounds like a really unique premise, and I'm curious to see how Mariana Zapata develops it.

Overall, I'm excited to give **"Culti"** another try and see if it will become one of my favorite books by Mariana Zapata. Fingers crossed!

**My Book Buying Habits**

I have to admit that I'm a bit guilty when it comes to book buying habits. While I love reading and discovering new books, I can get carried away with buying too many copies of the same title. But despite my best efforts, I just can't seem to stop buying books.

Luckily, I've recently joined a book club, which has helped me to stay accountable and focus on finding more meaningful reads. Our first meeting is scheduled for February 1st, and I'm excited to meet some like-minded readers who share my passion for reading.

While I do try to pace myself when it comes to buying new books, I have to say that I just can't help myself sometimes. There's something about discovering a new author or series that gets me really excited, and before I know it, I've bought half a dozen copies of the same book.

Despite my best efforts, I don't think I'll ever be able to resist buying books entirely. But with the help of my book club, I'm hoping to find more balance in my reading habits and focus on finding the books that truly resonate with me.

more again a few years ago and I've been recommending it many times I'm not sure why I never got to it I'm kind of hesitant to say that I was glad that I did because it made me SOB like a baby it's basically about this girl who grew up in San Diego has a best friend named Gus but she has to leave him and go away to college in Minneapolis I don't know somewhere across the country so she has to leave them behind it's really sad because they're childhood friends they have this connection to each other but then she goes there she meets all new friends she has a whole new experience and a whole different like setting and she has another romantic interest things happen and that's all I'll say X's and O's by Amy Leah this one I am so excited to read I think I'm gonna read it in February actually because it's giving Valentine's Day I don't know why I think it's honestly just because there's hearts on the front but this is part of a series I don't know the name of the series but there's a first one I don't think you have to read them back to back I think it's like all companion novels just different characters maybe in the series I should look into that before I read it it just came out I'm pretty sure this month and it's about this girl who's a bookstagram where I cannot wait to see how they interpret that as like an author would write about it says she's had her heart broken ten times by 10 different men who have all dumped her because of her stage five Clinger Tendencies then she decides to revisit her exes in hopes of securing her very own Trope worthy Second Chance romance I guess the main romantic interest is Trevor Metcalfe I don't know how to say his last name but he is a Boston firefighter and love is in his thing he helps Tara reconnect with her exes and then I'm assuming Sparks Fly I am very excited for this I have heard good things about it actually people who have read it this month I love the cover of this too I usually don't love like Comforts like this but something about this is kind of doing it for me really Prince by Sophie Lark this one I down a lot I'm intrigued to read her books like I I don't know what it is about it I don't know what this book is about but her covers are beautiful her posts and like people that make posts about her books are beautiful and it's just like I think I need to get into whatever books so unfortunately this is a Trilogy I don't know what it's about enemies lovers arranged marriage I'm excited to read this I just really need to read a Sophie Luck book like ASAP I think I'm a little late to the game but I've also heard good things about this one so I'm excited then this one scares me not excuse me about like the story but scares me of how big the series is this is the Zodiac academy by Caroline Peckham and Suzanne Valenti first of all the cover I'm like obsessed with I don't know what this is about but I saw on Tick Tock that the newest one I don't know it's the last one of the series the newest one has 10 books there's no vote it's like a whole thing it's like a whole world I don't know what I'll enter it but I'm for sure the one that just came out it's like a thousand Pages which Spooks me a little I'm a Gemini it says that's the first sentence I'm gonna get along with her heir to the throne I know nothing about and she's Faye oh is this fantasy all I have to do to claim my birth rate is to prove that I'm the most powerful Supernatural in the whole of Solaria the bit they didn't put in the brochure was that every single phase in his kingdom would claim my Throne if they could my biggest problem is the drill worth a dragon shifter who has his eyes on my throat he and his three psycho friends are determined to make my time here hell okay I literally had no idea what this was about I honestly I'm not gonna lie about having more to do with like maybe it does have stuff to do with more zodiac stuff I don't know but I did not know this was a fantasy there's so many books like I saw a tick tock of someone explaining the order of them and I was just like this is this is insane also heard good things about this but Tick Tock I saw the girls like obsessed with the series she has me intrigued then I have the girl on the train by Paula Hawkins I've eyed this down for so long like probably since I first started reading again kind of like bright side it says soon to be a major Motion Picture This is a mystery thriller this is kind of giving a woman in the window like where she lives in her house but looks at the neighbors across the street and see something go wrong it's kind of giving that where she's on the train and then see something wrong in like the house she sees every day I really really like the woman in the window I like the concept of that so excited about this one this one is a little iffy for me I'm not gonna lie corrupt Penelope Douglas I don't know what this is about I kind of don't want to go into the summary of this I want to go into this one blind but I'll be Douglas their writing is kind of or their books are kind of iffy for me I did read birthday girl and I did enjoy that but I read punk57 and I did not enjoy that I remember reading it when I first again started my book journey and I kind of liked it then some of the books I read in like the beginning of this whole booktube journey and whatever I liked and then I read more books my taste has grown I changed thoughts about it so if you watch one of my old videos and and I say pumpkin someone's a good book pretend you didn't hear that I did not like that one going back and like thinking about what happened in the book I don't know I'm iffy on their writing so the cover is giving scary spooky I've seen this also so many places I heard there's a lot of trigger warnings I heard this is just like a crazy story you either love it or hate it and I'm scared to start it I'm not gonna lie but we are buddy reading it in the Discord we have like a little Channel buddy reads if you want to Buddy read with people so a few of us are going to be reading this together so at least I'll have people with me while I'm reading this this should be interesting Rock Bottom Girl by Lucy score I've been on a Lucy score binge I read two more books this month and then I recommended by a thread to Larry reads and I was like you need to read it I'm literally telling everyone and shoving the book down their throats because I think it was just so good loved that book and then she was like we need to get on more Lucy score so we got this 38 year old Marley sneaks into her childhood bedroom she gets a temporary teaching position Jake Weston is the high school bad boy turned sexy good guy he becomes her new fake boyfriend in Alibi it's fake dating okay I need to read this to him we need to get on this one I Love Lucy scores writing it's just so entertaining it's just it captivates me I don't know what it is I don't know if it's all the different subplots she includes within it but I just love her so I'm excited about this one I haven't seen this one literally I don't think anywhere so many books I had no idea so I kind of want to just go through and read a bunch of her books and this is probably my next one mine would be you by K Jamil Jamila I don't know how to say that but I don't recommended this video I think Larry said this is one of her like absolute favorite books because I recommended by thread she recommended me a few of hers and this is one of them and I bought it immediately Valentina Scott is a cynic for love She's hesitant to open herself up to the Diablo again Jackson Ross holds the sun in his hands he's overly optimistic this is gonna sound interesting because usually it's the guy that's grumpy and like closed off to love and the girl is sunshine but this is girl seems grumpy and he holds the sun in his hand so he is the sunshine so it's like kind of like the opposite of that Trope and I'm really excited to read this one because I don't think I've read too many grumpy female main character Sunshine mailing character let me know if you've read any of this books by the way I need to know all of your opinions before going into some of these then I got seven days in June by Tia Williams I've seen this so many places in everyone I've seen review this gave it like five stars high ratings just a second chance single parent they meet at a literary event but no one knows 15 years earlier teenage even changed that one crazy week together madly in love and have been secretly writing to each other in their books ever since this sounds good and honestly I've seen someone in great ratings like I said so got this one I'm excited I have high hopes for this one high expectations then I got things we know Jessie Kirby this is so cute I'm pretty sure this is why I've seen this so many times going into Barnes and just the cover is it's so cute Quinn lost her boyfriend and acted their junior year in an attempt to take control of her morning she reaches out to the recipients of Trent's donated organs she writes letters and one of them is answered she tracks down the toy hoping to find peace once for all this sounds like I could break my heart something about sad YA books get to me if he had been with me a thousand kisses in your lifetime think that they become a romantic connection which is so interesting because he has the heart of her lost boyfriend something about the y a sad books I don't know what it is it does it for me so I don't know if this is sad it's just it's giving feels for what it's about it sounds like an interesting story I've not heard a story like this pretty short so I feel like I could read this pretty quick why a book sometimes you just need a y a book I don't know how to explain that but sometimes at least I sometimes Need Just a Good short why a book Jar of Hearts by Jennifer Hillier I actually got recommended this author someone said that I would like love her books this is about okay I don't know why the back of this is confusing me maybe I'll go into a blind okay the kind of gist of it it's a thriller mystery I don't know let me know if you read it me and Larry have had a fun month disgusting buddy reads this one I saw her post that she was reading ice Planet Barbarian barbarians by Ruby Dixon and I was like what is this what is this and it's basically a romance between a girl who I'm pretty sure gets abducted by aliens and taken to their planet and he's like an eight foot blue guy giving Avatar so yeah I have to read the first one and then we're gonna read the second one together it's like a whole world like I think there's like 19 books in it which is crazy you know sometimes you just gotta read alien romance I've never read a book like this I've gone into the fantasy world you know wolves say we'll see how this one goes flock by Kate Stewart I've seen this a few times in this little Trilogy I've heard mixed reviews on this I've heard people say that it gets kind of weird which intrigues me I grew up believing that real love stories include a martyr or demand great sacrifice to be worthy I believe because I made myself believe it and I bred the most masochistic of romantic Hearts which resulted in my illness I don't know I literally I don't get it this is another one I'm gonna have to go in blind I think there's three of them I've heard it's kind of interesting I guess I thought this was when I saw it like the first time it's the cover I thought it was gonna be a romance I don't know why because it's not giving romances giving like roller Vibes but I still don't understand what's going on and I've heard different things I've heard people either don't like it because it gets a little confusing and weird but then you have to go into the second one I don't know we will see consider me by Becca Mack I've seen this like a lot recently I'm pretty sure I heard that this comes from Wattpad The Story So going into it I'm gonna understand and acknowledge that I could have some watt Patty writing but this is a hockey romance but he's in the NHL it's not like a college hockey is this like real little hockey it's kind of giving what usually all of them give it says he's arrogant self-centered the man doesn't seem to know what a filter is let alone how to use one and then she starts butting her guard down you know I'm a sucker for a hockey remix though so I've never watched a hockey NHL game I've never watched a college hockey game a high school literally never watched hockey but something about the hockey romances and books just they do it for me I will probably eat this out the cover though not giving I'm gonna ignore that I think it's on Kindle unlimited too so then I have two truths and alive I met Mitchell Moore I believe this is a literary Fiction it's a blend of propulsive Thriller and a gorgeous summer read interesting I gotta say this for summer I sometimes I read the back of books and it just confuses me so I'd rather go in blind I do that a lot this will confuse me a little it's basically about a mom and daughter who are new to town and the new babysitter and her mom are sketchy that's what I've got that's the vibe I've gotten from this shipped by Angie Hoffman this is another summer book I love the cover of this again I have this thing with some cartoon cover I don't love but like this is kind of cute she's shortlisted for her dream promotion and then the bane of her exists Graham is also up for the position they've never met in person their boss tasks them with drafting a proposal but the catch is that they have to go on a company cruise together workplace romance but on a vacation that's kind of fun so I was definitely high on my list for my summer reads I feel like this is going to be a really good one then I have everything everything by Nicola Yoon again I've seen this so many times in the y a section because the cover is so pretty my disease is rare as it is famous she's allergic to the world wait is this a movie or a show why do I feel like I've seen this as a show or a movie just that first sentence kind of gave me I think there is hold on she's not left her house in 17 years she only sees her mom and her nurse and then one day someone moves in his name is Ollie says I'm Maddie I'm certainly going to fall in love with Ollie almost certainly going to be a disaster I think there's a movie on this I'm like certainly convinced but it sounds interesting there's always these YA books they get me do they have don't let me fall by Kelsey Wright I don't remember where I saw this but the covers are really cute it's like tie-dye blue I want a girl I can't have she's my tutor my best friend's girlfriend and she looks really good in my t-shirt but she wants the Golden Boy and I'm more of a villain type or at least I was until I saw her smile for the first time but the good guy she once wouldn't lust after his friend's girlfriend and the good guy she's with shouldn't be sneaking around behind her back waiting he has a thing for his best friend's girlfriend is sneaking around behind her back she tutors him love triangle I'm sensing this sounds really interesting I need to read this I'm really excited for this why do I think this is a part of the series things I wanted to say by Monica Murphy another thick girl by her because really because her lifetime is definitely a thick book I think this is part of the Lancaster crew Lancaster world yeah Wetland Caster burst into my life like a storm he's a menace on campus comes to her rescue and then leaves her alone the dead of the night taking her journal with him and now he knows all my secrets that sounds interesting I'm really excited about this I love the cover I think it's so pretty her covers are beautiful it's definitely thick but I loved crew I loved a million kisses in your lifetime I'm excited about this one but it sounds interesting the whole knowing her Secrets sounds like fun not for her but for me okay and then I have culti by Mariana Zapata so I have this thing with Mariana I won't even say a love hate relationship I don't know I need to like find one of her books that I liked I don't want to just stick to the only two I've read which is Luca with love and of the wall of winnipegany whatever that one is I didn't love them I don't know and the thing is I can do a slow burn and I like some slow burns like buying thread was a slow burn but something about her books they didn't I don't know they didn't do it for me maybe this one will I think this is a soccer yeah this is a soccer for most other two were figure skating and football the many worshiped as a kid becomes your coach oh my God she's so really idolize him she had posters on her wall of them and envisioned marrying him and having soccer playing Super Babies now he's our coach again it's 100 Mecca Slow Burn I'm gonna try it I'm gonna try it I'm gonna hope for the best I'm gonna go into it without any expectations no negativity because I didn't like the other two like this could be the one you never know because having a thing with tail chickens read and Daisy Jones and six did it for me when none of the other ones did so I'm gonna go into this open-minded last but certainly not least red Magnolia parks and I immediately middle of the book ordered the rest of the series and can I just say I don't care if you don't like these books Jessa Hastings knew what she was doing designing the covers of these books this is the only book The Man's chess on it that is just like art I'm completely obsessed but okay I'm in the middle of Daisy Hayes which is the second one that other characters in Magnolia Parks but like their story so that's this one the cover is just everything Long Way Home Magnolia Parks this is back to Magnolia and BJ in this book I cannot wait to get to this I anticipated through Daisy hates because I need to read more of these two incredibly toxic people I don't know what it is but I eat up the drama and then I have Daisy hates the great I'm doing I love the side the green and the pink the cover the back it's just perfect so this is the other one this is back to Daisy and Christian I'm excited covers are beautiful they are kind of everything to me this is the most recent purchase of mine these are all the books that I have gotten

it but I just love her so I'm excited about this one I haven't seen this one literally I don't think anywhere so many books I had no idea so I kind of want to just go through and read a bunch of her books and this is probably my next one mine would be you by K Jamil Jamila I don't know how to say that but I don't recommended this video I think Larry said this is one of her like absolute favorite books because I recommended by thread she recommended me a few of hers and this is one of them and I bought it immediately Valentina Scott is a cynic for love She's hesitant to open herself up to the Diablo again Jackson Ross holds the sun in his hands he's overly optimistic this is gonna sound interesting because usually it's the guy that's grumpy and like closed off to love and the girl is sunshine but this is girl seems grumpy and he holds the sun in his hand so he is the sunshine so it's like kind of like the opposite of that Trope and I'm really excited to read this one because I don't think I've read too many grumpy female main character Sunshine mailing character let me know if you've read any of this books by the way I need to know all of your opinions before going into some of these then I got seven days in June by Tia Williams I've seen this so many places in everyone I've seen review this gave it like five stars high ratings just a second chance single parent they meet at a literary event but no one knows 15 years earlier teenage even changed that one crazy week together madly in love and have been secretly writing to each other in their books ever since this sounds good and honestly I've seen someone in great ratings like I said so got this one I'm excited I have high hopes for this one high expectations then I got things we know Jessie Kirby this is so cute I'm pretty sure this is why I've seen this so many times going into Barnes and just the cover is it's so cute Quinn lost her boyfriend and acted their junior year in an attempt to take control of her morning she reaches out to the recipients of Trent's donated organs she writes letters and one of them is answered she tracks down the toy hoping to find peace once for all this sounds like I could break my heart something about sad YA books get to me if he had been with me a thousand kisses in your lifetime think that they become a romantic connection which is so interesting because he has the heart of her lost boyfriend something about the y a sad books I don't know what it is it does it for me so I don't know if this is sad it's just it's giving feels for what it's about it sounds like an interesting story I've not heard a story like this pretty short so I feel like I could read this pretty quick why a book sometimes you just need a y a book I don't know how to explain that but sometimes at least I sometimes Need Just a Good short why a book Jar of Hearts by Jennifer Hillier I actually got recommended this author someone said that I would like love her books this is about okay I don't know why the back of this is confusing me maybe I'll go into a blind okay the kind of gist of it it's a thriller mystery I don't know let me know if you read it me and Larry have had a fun month disgusting buddy reads this one I saw her post that she was reading ice Planet Barbarian barbarians by Ruby Dixon and I was like what is this what is this and it's basically a romance between a girl who I'm pretty sure gets abducted by aliens and taken to their planet and he's like an eight foot blue guy giving Avatar so yeah I have to read the first one and then we're gonna read the second one together it's like a whole world like I think there's like 19 books in it which is crazy you know sometimes you just gotta read alien romance I've never read a book like this I've gone into the fantasy world you know wolves say we'll see how this one goes flock by Kate Stewart I've seen this a few times in this little Trilogy I've heard mixed reviews on this I've heard people say that it gets kind of weird which intrigues me I grew up believing that real love stories include a martyr or demand great sacrifice to be worthy I believe because I made myself believe it and I bred the most masochistic of romantic Hearts which resulted in my illness I don't know I literally I don't get it this is another one I'm gonna have to go in blind I think there's three of them I've heard it's kind of interesting I guess I thought this was when I saw it like the first time it's the cover I thought it was gonna be a romance I don't know why because it's not giving romances giving like roller Vibes but I still don't understand what's going on and I've heard different things I've heard people either don't like it because it gets a little confusing and weird but then you have to go into the second one I don't know we will see consider me by Becca Mack I've seen this like a lot recently I'm pretty sure I heard that this comes from Wattpad The Story So going into it I'm gonna understand and acknowledge that I could have some watt Patty writing but this is a hockey romance but he's in the NHL it's not like a college hockey is this like real little hockey it's kind of giving what usually all of them give it says he's arrogant self-centered the man doesn't seem to know what a filter is let alone how to use one and then she starts butting her guard down you know I'm a sucker for a hockey remix though so I've never watched a hockey NHL game I've never watched a college hockey game a high school literally never watched hockey but something about the hockey romances and books just they do it for me I will probably eat this out the cover though not giving I'm gonna ignore that I think it's on Kindle unlimited too so then I have two truths and alive I met Mitchell Moore I believe this is a literary Fiction it's a blend of propulsive Thriller and a gorgeous summer read interesting I gotta say this for summer I sometimes I read the back of books and it just confuses me so I'd rather go in blind I do that a lot this will confuse me a little it's basically about a mom and daughter who are new to town and the new babysitter and her mom are sketchy that's what I've got that's the vibe I've gotten from this shipped by Angie Hoffman this is another summer book I love the cover of this again I have this thing with some cartoon cover I don't love but like this is kind of cute she's shortlisted for her dream promotion and then the bane of her exists Graham is also up for the position they've never met in person their boss tasks them with drafting a proposal but the catch is that they have to go on a company cruise together workplace romance but on a vacation that's kind of fun so I was definitely high on my list for my summer reads I feel like this is going to be a really good one then I have everything everything by Nicola Yoon again I've seen this so many times in the y a section because the cover is so pretty my disease is rare as it is famous she's allergic to the world wait is this a movie or a show why do I feel like I've seen this as a show or a movie just that first sentence kind of gave me I think there is hold on she's not left her house in 17 years she only sees her mom and her nurse and then one day someone moves in his name is Ollie says I'm Maddie I'm certainly going to fall in love with Ollie almost certainly going to be a disaster I think there's a movie on this I'm like certainly convinced but it sounds interesting there's always these YA books they get me do they have don't let me fall by Kelsey Wright I don't remember where I saw this but the covers are really cute it's like tie-dye blue I want a girl I can't have she's my tutor my best friend's girlfriend and she looks really good in my t-shirt but she wants the Golden Boy and I'm more of a villain type or at least I was until I saw her smile for the first time but the good guy she once wouldn't lust after his friend's girlfriend and the good guy she's with shouldn't be sneaking around behind her back waiting he has a thing for his best friend's girlfriend is sneaking around behind her back she tutors him love triangle I'm sensing this sounds really interesting I need to read this I'm really excited for this why do I think this is a part of the series things I wanted to say by Monica Murphy another thick girl by her because really because her lifetime is definitely a thick book I think this is part of the Lancaster crew Lancaster world yeah Wetland Caster burst into my life like a storm he's a menace on campus comes to her rescue and then leaves her alone the dead of the night taking her journal with him and now he knows all my secrets that sounds interesting I'm really excited about this I love the cover I think it's so pretty her covers are beautiful it's definitely thick but I loved crew I loved a million kisses in your lifetime I'm excited about this one but it sounds interesting the whole knowing her Secrets sounds like fun not for her but for me okay and then I have culti by Mariana Zapata so I have this thing with Mariana I won't even say a love hate relationship I don't know I need to like find one of her books that I liked I don't want to just stick to the only two I've read which is Luca with love and of the wall of winnipegany whatever that one is I didn't love them I don't know and the thing is I can do a slow burn and I like some slow burns like buying thread was a slow burn but something about her books they didn't I don't know they didn't do it for me maybe this one will I think this is a soccer yeah this is a soccer for most other two were figure skating and football the many worshiped as a kid becomes your coach oh my God she's so really idolize him she had posters on her wall of them and envisioned marrying him and having soccer playing Super Babies now he's our coach again it's 100 Mecca Slow Burn I'm gonna try it I'm gonna try it I'm gonna hope for the best I'm gonna go into it without any expectations no negativity because I didn't like the other two like this could be the one you never know because having a thing with tail chickens read and Daisy Jones and six did it for me when none of the other ones did so I'm gonna go into this open-minded last but certainly not least red Magnolia parks and I immediately middle of the book ordered the rest of the series and can I just say I don't care if you don't like these books Jessa Hastings knew what she was doing designing the covers of these books this is the only book The Man's chess on it that is just like art I'm completely obsessed but okay I'm in the middle of Daisy Hayes which is the second one that other characters in Magnolia Parks but like their story so that's this one the cover is just everything Long Way Home Magnolia Parks this is back to Magnolia and BJ in this book I cannot wait to get to this I anticipated through Daisy hates because I need to read more of these two incredibly toxic people I don't know what it is but I eat up the drama and then I have Daisy hates the great I'm doing I love the side the green and the pink the cover the back it's just perfect so this is the other one this is back to Daisy and Christian I'm excited covers are beautiful they are kind of everything to me this is the most recent purchase of mine these are all the books that I have gotten received
