Review: Warbreaker (Warbreaker, #1) by Brandon Sanderson
5/5☕ | Character-driven AND plot-driven, Warbreaker is a (relatively lol) short offering that showed a different side of Brandon Sanderson’s writing. Another great read in the Cosmere books!

Review: Strange Weather in Tokyo by Hiromi Kawakami
4/5 ☕ | When you’re used to reading fast-paced books with big characters and bigger endings, reading a quiet book like this would feel like a shock to the system. For me, reading Strange Weather in Tokyo has been a welcome change – a sudden stop: to breathe and slow down.

Review: What To Do When I’m Gone by Suzy Hopkins and Hallie Bateman
4/5 ☕ | It has taken me years to read this book without choking up. And though I still feel that unmistakable emotion bubbling up, it’s now faint enough for me to actually finish this book without feeling bad about life. If there’s anything I regret, it’s that I should’ve let myself read this sooner.

Review: The Way of Kings (The Stormlight Archive, #1) by Brandon Sanderson
6/5 ☕ | And so I declare this: The Way of Kings is my number 1 read for 2020, so far. The last time I felt this way, I was throwing my paperback book across the bed after I read about that infamous Chapter 51 of A Storm of Swords.

Review: Please Pick Me by Reina Regina
4/5 ☕ | Reading Please Pick Me felt like peeking into something so intimate. With sections titled: flowers, thorns, roots, and seeds – this whole book is a metaphor for, fittingly, growth and all these less-than-picture-perfect facets of life that fundamentally still make up who we are.
