Hi, hi, I love having themed months and in March I like to pick up Irish authors. I would greatly appreciate some recommendations, as it is a bit difficult finding some. Thank you in advance. : ) š«¶š¼š«¶š¼š«¶š¼

Listen, I generally love spice, and I don't know if it's just been a while since I've read a book this detailed, but this honestly it should've been categorized as erotica along with the other tags. It's not bad at all; it's very hot. I just wish I would have known going in, but I could be wrong about the erotica tag, although I've read a scene very similar to this in an erotica book. I don't know if I'm feeling anything right now about them. I wish there was more banter or something more between them because theyāre just fucking, and yeah, itās hot, but Iām like, Alright, next which sucks that i donāt feel that connection but I just canāt wait to get deeper into the story.

Iāve been meaning to get to this book for suchĀ a long while since seven days in June, and Iām so happy I picked it up. I do get a little weary with the young adult genre Iām not a young adult, so sometimes itās a hit or miss, but of course it would be unfair to base it on that, so Iāll just base it on the enjoyment aspect. This one was so sweet and so cute; it felt current and accurate to being a young adult in this era. I love how many things are touched on in this book and how deep it gets. It was so refreshing, It felt so real and gave these characters so much depth. I will say the only thing I didnāt love about this book is the low key character assassination with Eva. I understand why she was so protective over her daughter, but there were just things I couldnāt get past, and honestly, maybe itās just personal feelings getting in the way, so I wonāt really harp on it too much, but just the way she was treating her daughter I didnāt love. I was feeling for Audre so much, but there was lots of nuance that goes into Evaās character and her background, so I understand why it was done in the way it was, but I just didnāt love being along for that journey. I will say by the end it did get resolved in a way, but I wish I wouldāve seen more of a one on one with Eva and Audre at that point. Other than that, the romance was so wholesome and real. I absolutely adore Audre. I love love love Bash; he is such a refreshing MMC. Like, genuinely, he should be what people look for in a partner; heās so down to earth. It was genuinely such a sweet romance. I loved all the side characters. I enjoyed how we got more into their backstories and their current story. It was such a well rounded book. I love Tia Williams's writing; it was such a quick read. The audiobook was so great. I could definitely see this being turned into a movie or series.

I canāt wait to reread this already. It was such a great book; I highly, highly recommend everyone read it. I genuinely believe it should be required reading. I love the way it was narrated by Ta-Nehisi Coates because he's directly talking to his son, and it just feels like breaking the 4th wall. There are so many quotes and moments I will be thinking about forever; it was just so heartfelt. I will truly never understand what itās like to navigate this world being Black. I can only understand it through being a Latina and a minority in that way, but this book was the closest book I felt personally that I could even understand or comprehend what it is like, and even then, I understand itās not even in the ballpark of actually experiencing these things. Definitely give the audiobook a listen as well. I love when itās narrated by the person who wrote the book; it just adds another layer to it all.
