The Upside of Unrequited is a companion to Becky Albertalli’s Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda. It focuses on Abby’s cousin, Molly, and her journey to finding love and having her first ever romance. Simon vs for me was a standout book and The Upside of Unrequited didn’t quite live up to my extremely high expectations but I still really enjoyed […]

Check this book out if you’re looking for a fun and flirty light read that is mindless and laugh-out-loud funny. Extremely superficial at times, I can see why people liken this book to a romantic comedy movie. The awkward, clumsy main character Emily can be an absolute train wreck, but you can’t help but read […]
This book was seriously out of this world – I pretty much read it in one sitting!
