It's summer, and who wouldn't love a good summer romance beach read? Well, I am here with a list of books I have read this summer and would want to read.  Summer beach reads are different for everyone, but for me, summer beach reads are happy-ending romantic novels set in summer.  Summer books also contain happy, upbeat readers that match my summer Spotify playlist.   I would not like to be bawling my eyes in the summer, so I prefer happy-endings, but there are millions of other genres you consider as Summer beach reads, and I would love to hear them in the comments. This post is also proof of the amount of love I have for the Enemies to Lovers trope. THE SPANISH LOVE DECEPTION, ELENA  ARMAS I finished this book just this Wednesday, and I literally forgot to sleep while reading this. I started this around 3 am, and the next thing I know, I see the sun. It is rising, and it's 8 am. This book was just so beautiful. If you have read and loved I sold... on Wattpad, then this bo

  Ever since young Milly Bythaway can remember, she’s had to hide who she really is – dumbing down an extraordinary genius in order to blend into the background. 14-year-old Tai Jones has been abandoned by his mother and forced to live as a homeless wanderer, but the appearance of a stray cat helps him realise he has a special gift: he can see the thoughts and emotions of others in stunningly beautiful colours. A gift that is both wonderful and awful. When they are brought together for their own safety, they hear of the disappearance of a third child, which begins a journey of discovery as their strange and unusual abilities develop. Abilities that they struggle to control. But they must do so; their own fate depends on it. The Ingenious and the Colour of Life  is J.Y. Sam’s beautiful and heart-rending debut – a story that explores the fragility of human nature, with a dash of science, culture, and the natural world, engaging both mind and heart in an eclectic blend of genres. The Inge

“ That which you understand you call science . That which you don’t, you call magic .”   When President Orains gets re-elected for a third term in 2025, the nation plunges into a second Civil War. Doomed for the Brazos camp, Brum Hesles, her two siblings, and her mother flee their home in the Houston archipelago overnight, leaving her father behind. Assisted by the Unity Forces, a resistance group fighting the new Great Republic’s regime, Brum reaches the safety of her mother’s ancestral home in the Oaxacan town of El Nidal. There, in the relative safety of her mysterious great-aunt’s house, she discovers a library brimming with strange manuscripts, artifacts, and the “musical” key to a world she thinks is safer than her own.  Who is the heiress of Mitla? And what in Beydo’s name is the Flow? The fate of the Realms and the entire world might unexpectedly rest on the shoulders of an olive-skinned, teenage girl: Brum Hesles, the Keeper of Resonance.  Quetzalli's Last Song is an upco

Do not think that I wouldn't become a monster to keep them protected.   SYNOPSIS: Feyre's survival rests upon her ability to hunt and kill – the forest where she lives is a cold, bleak place in the long winter months. So when she spots a deer in the forest being pursued by a wolf, she cannot resist fighting it for the flesh. But to do so, she must kill the predator, and killing something so precious comes at a price ... Dragged to a magical kingdom for the murder of a faerie, Feyre discovers that her captor, his face obscured by a jeweled mask, is hiding far more than his piercing green eyes would suggest. Feyre's presence at the court is closely guarded, and as she begins to learn why her feelings for him turn from hostility to passion and the faerie lands become an even more dangerous place. Feyre must fight to break an ancient curse, or she will lose him forever. This fantastic, enthralling book series by Sarah J Mass has so many incredible action scenes and such a well

I’ve read so many books, and some of the books have become my home. Reading those books makes me feel like I’m returning back home. I have re-read these books so many times that I can recite paragraphs of the book word-to-word. Here are some book universes that have become a home for me, and I would do anything to get an opportunity to visit these universes.  The word Hiraeth perfectly describes my feeling when I talk about Velaris or Hogwarts. 1. Grishaverse (Leigh Bardugo)  " When everyone knows you are a monster, you needn't spend time doing every monstrous thing." If I could be a part of the Grishaverse in any form, I would die. I will sell my soul to be part of the Crows especially. I did not like the Shadow and Bone series too much, but Six of Crows and King of Scars duology have me by my heart. I absolutely loved it! I love criminal books, and I love heists, even more, making me love the Six of Crows even more. I've read around 3-4 books about a heist, and I ho
