Shatter Me Series 6-Book Box Set Review

Juliette starts off scared of her own shadow, but ends up tossing cars and hearts around like confetti. The writing is wild, the love triangles messy, and the angst level? Off the charts. Dystopia’s never looked so personal.

The Stranger Review

Meursault is about as emotional as a soggy baguette. His lack of reaction to his mom’s death had me blinking twice. Camus serves up a bizarre look at life that’s both funny and a bit unsettling.

1985 Back In The Day Review

The 1985 book made me laugh, cringe, and nod in agreement. It’s packed with wild facts, old-school ads, and even a trivia page that stumped my uncle. Definitely a fun trip down memory lane, but some jokes feel outdated.
