THIS IS WHAT READING IS ALL ABOUT.

Picking up a random book you haven't heard much about and just. FALLING IN LOVE WITH IT.

Have decided to use the one moment of earnestness I'm allotted per year on this to say: I read for moments like this! Yes, I'm critical, yes, my most common rating is a 3 by a country mile, yes, I bring suffering to the timelines of us all:

But I'm willing to bet that when I want to give a five star - when a book is PERFECT and makes me FEEL and I love the CHARACTERS and it SURPRISES me...

Well, I bet my five stars feel better than your five stars.

This is like if Emily Henry wrote young adult paranormal horror, which is the greatest compliment I can give...any young adult paranormal horror.

It's funny, the banter is A+, the friendships are fantastic, there's some sweet little sapphic friends to lovers action, and it is so goddamn spooky I could perish.

What a dream.

Bottom line: I'm going to live forever!!!!!!!!
