Abigail

I found this book in my dads collection when I was abt 12/13 after I had finished exams and was looking for something to read. And it was so insightful. I have reread it so many times and each time I read it I get a different message from it.
I keep it around with me and read it whenever I need some advice or help.
Highly recommend if you are a teen coz it gives very helpful advice in terms of school life, when dealing with parents/friends, addictions,etc

Also this is the only self help book I've read and loved (I read fiction mostly)

This book is not at all how I thought it would be....let's just say tik tok over hyped it
I found out about this book from tiktok and seeing multiple people recommending it I decided to read it and I wasn't satisfied.
Overall the book was good just didn't reach my expectations.
The ending was a bit sad tho when she remembered everything and realized her friends were ghosts/spirits.

4.25
I was almost gonna dnf this while reading the first few chapters but when Baz entered the scene I COULDN'T STOP READING!!! Just kept flipping pages coz it suddenly became so interesting.The chemistry between Baz and Simon is SOOO cuteeeee and I have prob reread their cute moments abt 5 or 6 times each lol

Lovee the book and the main characters!!!(except Agatha)
Read it!!!!!

Fav quotes.

1)”It's going to be okay.” Baz wraps both arms around him. “It's all right, love.”Everything is starting to make sense.”2)“Simon Snow is still going to die kissing me.Just not today.”3)“You were the sun, and I was crashing into you.”4)“It's the good things that hurt when you're missing them.”5)“He's not a monster. He's just a villain. He's not a villain. He's just a boy. I'm kissing a boy. I'm kissing Baz.”6)“And sometimes holes want to get bigger, but Baz was wrong—sometimes they just want to be filled.”7)“I am going to die kissing Simon Snow. Aleister Crowley, I'm living a charmed life.”8)“Just when you think you're having a scene without Simon, he drops in to remind you that everyone else is a supporting character in his catastrophe.”9)“I was eleven years old, and I'd lost my mother, and my soul, and the Crucible gave me you.”10)“I let myself slip away... Just to stay sane. Just to get through it. And when I felt myself slipping too far, I held on to the one thing I'm always sure of - Blue eyes. Bronze curls. The fact that Simon Snow is the most powerful magician alive. That nothing can hurt him, not even me. That Simon Snow is alive. And I'm hopelessly in love with him.”

“You find out who your real friends are when stuff like this happens.”

Finished this a few weeks ago and I have no thoughts on it. I don't hate it and at the same time, I don't love it. It's such a complicated feeling coz whenever I think of the book my mind goes completely blank.
So giving this a neutral rating.
Halfway through I wanted to stop, but at the same time, I wanted to see who the killer was.
Ans even though the reveal was kind of unexpected it wasn't a ‘wow' factor.
