Matthew reads, I guess...

  By Any Means Necessary by Candice Montgomery was one of those books that sat on my book wishlist for a good long while before I finally bought it. But that might have something to do with the fact that there simply was no paperback version available for me to buy, and I am one of those people that doesn’t like hardbacks. Yes, they’re pretty to look at, but I hate those paper sleeves they come with, I’ll say it. What’s the point in having a hardback book if you’re just going to put paper over it? Also, the good bestie (me) doesn’t have the shelf space for hardbacks – no matter how nice they look.

And that is that the bank is foreclosing on the bee farm his uncle, Miles, left him. It then mentions Torre...

  Now, I don’t want to alarm anyone. But this book, Out of Character by Annabeth Albert, was the first book that I physically bought from a bookshop in, maybe, 18 months. It was lovely, and I got it from a lovely queer bookshop called The Bookish Type in Leeds (the name there is a clickable link to their website!) Also, if you want the video version of this post (CLICK HERE) Yes, it was very exciting, but I bought it because it was by Annabeth Albert, and I was like, “Oh, I know that name”, and I did. I’ve read Conventionally Yours , and maybe I did have to go and check whether I’d made a post about it, and I had. Shall I go wild? Put another link? Let’s do it. Here, read my post on Conventionally Yours . But I remember enjoying the book, and it being an enemies (or rivals) to lovers – who doesn’t love that? And that was why I bought this. Also, every time I read enemies/rivals to lovers, there’s this one TikTok I always think of. It’s this girl that basically says, “Do you eve...

  So, I’ve read one other book from Cale Dietrich, The Love Interest , and I’ve followed him for I don’t know how long, so I’ve been waiting for The Friend Scheme for a good long while, and I’m so happy I got it. If you want the video version of this post (CLICK HERE) In what is apparently tradition for this blog, Miss Blurb says that seventeen-year-old Matt is the son of one of the most powerful criminals in the world. Then his desire to get out of the world of crime grows as he meets Jason. But then Matt becomes suspicious of Jason’s intentions as he seems a little too perfect, especially when he keeps encouraging Matt the disclose details about his father’s empire. Reading this, this did make me think that perhaps Jason was some kind of a plant from the opposing crime family, trying to take Matt’s father down, that’s what I immediately thought. Right on the first page, Matt literally says, “I never wanted to be a criminal”, so they’re off to a great start, and then we’re intro...
