    Writing Progress

    August 9, 2021 /

    I had planned to write this blog post for over a week and coincidentally I got some news yesterday that was perfect for today’s post. If you remember, a few weeks ago I shared with you guys about a fantasy short story I wrote for a contest. I just learned yesterday that I won! It was the best news to wake up to when I checked my phone. Contests like this may be small, but they definitely encourage me to keep going and that maybe I’m a better writer than I think. Like I said, I had planned to write this post even before that exciting news. I wanted to…

Love and Other Sins was an instant love for me! 📖❤️ I did a spotlight on this book on my blog back in the fall when I got a nice advanced reader package but just got to read it and I loved it! 

The novel is told from the perspectives of Mina and Oliver. Mina is a first generation American living in Los Angeles with her mom. With money being tight, her mom has to pull her from her private school for her senior year which means Mina will have to go to public school in Hollywood. Not only does she have to change schools, but problems arise due to family. 

Oliver grew up in foster care and after years of being bounced around from home to home and abused, he has managed to educate himself on his rights, win a lawsuit, and become emancipated. He has also managed to save a lot of money by hustling electronics. Wanting to start with a clean slate, in a new town away from his troubled past, Oliver moves to Los Angeles.

Mina and Oliver meet and form an instant bond after a scary incident. But can they overcome their own issues to be together? ✨📚

I loved the novel and the characters so much. I felt the characters, while obviously not perfect, were realistically flawed and relatable. Warning ⚠️ - the novel does end on a cliffhanger and now I need to become friends with @emiliaares and find out when the sequel will be coming out and any other book secrets!! 🤣

More of my review is on the blog 📖

Once Upon a Lifetime is a new novel by Suzanne Mat Once Upon a Lifetime is a new novel by Suzanne Mattaboni. I was recently sent a copy and look forward to reading it! 📖

In 1984, punk is rampant, Andy Warhol rules, and 20-year old Jess is sick of missing out on all the excitement. Setting her sights on an avant-garde study abroad program she can’t afford, her summer becomes a wild ride of edgy clubs, waitressing chaos, tequila-fueled adventures, and all the nostalgia that 1980s New Hope, PA has to offer.
