    Totally agree that I don't think I actually like sad books! Real life can be sad enough sometimes; when I read, I just want something that's ultimately heartwarming.

    All the bright places was SOO good! I personally love sad books though so ofc it will get a high rating from me. I feel like in order for me to love a book it has to make me feel something and sad books + thrillers just do that for me. Two of my favorite books were also "If he had been with me" and "a thousand boy kisses" so you can kinda see a pattern lol.

The book was an eye opener and changed the way I perceive things in life as of today. I really loved the way the characters were written and how it shows that you can find happiness and beauty in the most simplest things.🥹💗

    Personally, I love books that destroy me emotionally. I must say, I do have to surround the hard reads with lighter, fluffier books and I try to avoid them when I myself am not mentally in the best place. But for the most part, if a book makes me cry, the star rating shoots up.

    If you want more sci-fi to read you should read renegades by Marissa meter, Red Rising by Pierce Brown, and The Light at the Bottom of the World by London Shah. These are some of my favorite sci-fi if you haven’t read them yet I highly suggest you do!

    I'd have loved Project Hail Mary had I not read The Martian first, and probably vice versa. In MY opinion, Andy Weir wrote essentially the same thing twice. I loved Rocky so much though, but I think he was definitely necessary as well to separate the two books from one another. And I know this is an unpopular opinion because I see no one talking about this 🤣
