The Boy I Love
To be honest, I truly thought that I was going to enjoy this book as this is the type of topic that I enjoy to read. Unfortunately, I was disappointed by the pacing to an extremity and felt that it did not actually capture the struggles of being queer in the second world war. Furthermore, the ending made little to no sense to me and I feel it would've been better if Danny and Stephen never met again.

Songs for Ghosts
It was an amazing book, I loved the way each part of the story linked together at the right time so it wasn’t too overwhelming, and was consistently exciting throughout the story and plot. The way the characters were linked together through their likeness and their life experiences and the constant mystery kept me thinking on my own theories, and I learnt a lot about Japanese culture, especially the ‘Biwa’ instrument, which i didn’t even know about! The book stayed on track with the story with minimal drifting off of topic which i thought was great. I’d say my favourite thing was the ghosts i really liked how they had been made to appear and the separate stories told of different ones. It was overall a genuinely good book and I’d totally recommend reading it.

Not Going To Plan
An incredibly well made book on the topics of consent and identity. I really enjoyed this book and the typography enhanced the feel of the story. Would definitely recommend however I was disappointed by the fact that Zed and Lucas' story never progressed any further in the book.

Twenty Four Seconds from Now
Amazingly written really keeps you engaged going back and forth in time. I found that I couldn’t stop turning the pages. As soon as I finished it the first thing I did was look for a sequel that’s how good it is. Only complaints are that I felt the last few pages were a bit rushed and it could have carried on for longer with more detail and I’m a bit confused about what their three words actually are I think I know but the last page has me slightly confused.
