How Many Tissues Will I Need?

This rating scale is easy to follow it just answers the question of how many tissue boxes to prepare to use between 1 and 5. If you need more than five... call your therapist and don't message "them".

It Ends With Us- Colleen Hoover

Tackles domestic violence so well and for someone who has been there... It made me sob remembering being a Lily Bloom.

If you want romance this is definitely a book I recommend as it moves back and forth on the memories of a previous relationship Lily (the protagonist) had with former high school sweetheart Atlas before moving to the present situation of Ryle Kincaid. Therefore providing the reader with two forms of creation of love, the sweet innocent naive type presented in the High School Romance of Lily helps Atlas through his challenges facing homelessness and the brewing 'will they won't they' sequence between One Night Stander Ryle and Hopeless Romantic Lily. It provides written scenes Guaranteed to make you swoon over both male characters' pursuit of Lily's heart before leaving you questioning your taste in men.

If He Had Been With Me- Laura Nowlin

PTSD to my old high school self

I can see what you tried to do but you kinda fell a bit short. The book was like an essay on why the second main character Finn would still be alive if he had been with the main character Autumn. It should have leant more into this format instead like a bit of present while reflecting on the past,

The story did bring back the memories of high school and trying to be different and the social clicks around high school however Autumn took it a bit far to be completely realistic.

The storyline became a bit predictable and dragged out to make up the entirety of the high school experience with the final plot twist being semi-predictable.

Tackles some intense subjects including mental health, Friendship fall outs and different types of romances common to teenagers.

This book was recommended by so many but it didn't stand out for me. It was a palate cleanser in the middle of dark books for me.
