(I'm not taking the translation quality into consideration for my rating.)
I absolutely loved this! Well worth the read :)

The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan
I'm really glad that I finally read this. Despite having listened to the audiobook many times, there were different parts of the story that stood out to me in written form.
Such an amazing book, I can't wait to continue the series!

The Rise of Kyoshi by F.C. Yee
4.5
Wow!!! This was an amazing read.
Definitely more suited for older (YA+) readers, given the higher level of (graphic) violence compared to the series.
An amazing story with great characters that I grew to love faster than I could have imagined.
I can't wait for the next book!!!

This was amazing! I'm so sad it's the end, I must admit I had to wipe away some tears.
The characters are amazing and have become so dear to me over the course of these books! There is also an amazing balance of light and serious stuff. One minute you're cackling out loud, the next you're crying along with Bitty... Yet it never feels like a rollercoaster.
I really enjoyed this series!

Red, White & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston
5.0
If I could give this 6 stars, I would.
(I may or may not have contemplated lowering all my other ratings by one star just so I could give this one more star than any other book...)
Just. Wow. I have no words. I laughed. I cried. I laughed some more.
These characters are so dear to my heart, and I found myself caring intensely about their story. This book is excellently written and I can't wait to read it a thousand times more. I am very very excited to see what Casey McQuiston does next!

Love, love, LOOOOVE this comic! I never really got into the web version, but sitting down with a book is a guaranteed way for me to get hooked. Seriously adore this story.
My one complaint is that some of the panels are printed quite dark. I feel like they'd translate better on a screen, and might have needed some colour correction. Still, not a deal-breaker in the least!
Highly recommend this book ❤️
Re-read 2020: Still loved this as much as I did last year! The darkness of the panels bothered me less this time around. Maybe it's because I read it right next to a window? Who knows. Excited to follow it up with the sequel now!!!

Amazing to have finally read this! What a wonderful comic.
Not Your Villain by C.B. Lee
4.5
Before starting this book, I was a little sad that I wouldn't be spending any more time reading from Jess' perspective (I'd gotten rather fond of her during the first book), but I soon realised this would be a recurring problem, because BELLS IS AMAZING AND I LOVE HIM. Now I am sad I won't be spending any more time in his head. (As I'm sure I will feel about Emma after the next one.)
This book is just amazing. I liked it a lot more than the first one (which I liked a lot already, but took a while to get into). At the start I was a little worried the entire book would just be a retelling of book 1 from Bells' perspective, but it soon shifts into the 'current' time, and I feel like the time spent in the past was definitely useful in getting to know Bells and his life.
I'm not sure what else to say that isn't just me gushing over how cool Bells is. How cool this book is. How cool the representation in it is. I am just in love!!! Go read this series! :)
