Slammed by Colleen Hoover | Review by Mohini Jugran


 

🆁🅰🆃🅸🅽🅶🆂: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The 5 stages of grief and loss are: 

1. Denial and isolation

2. Anger

3. Bargaining

4. Depression

5. Acceptance. 


🅳🅴🆂🅲🆁🅸🅿🆃🅸🅾🅽: Following the unexpected death of her father, 18-year-old Layken is forced to be the rock for both her mother and younger brother. Outwardly, she appears resilient and tenacious, but inwardly, she's losing hope.


Enter Will Cooper: The attractive, 21-year-old new neighbor with an intriguing passion for slam poetry and a unique sense of humor. Within days of their introduction, Will and Layken form an intense emotional connection, leaving Layken with a renewed sense of hope.


Not long after an intense, heart-stopping first date, they are slammed to the core when a shocking revelation forces their new relationship to a sudden halt. Daily interactions become impossibly painful as they struggle to find a balance between the feelings that pull them together, and the secret that keeps them apart.


🆁🅴🆅🅸🅴🆆: I love her writing style, the plot and the way story progresses. There were so many small but impactful things.


✨Slammed Series is the best of Colleen Hoo er and remain to be the book that shattered my heart in billion little pieces. It subtly highlights so many important issues. Most of all, how we handle grief. Acceptance isn't easy to come. 

In our sufferings, we earn so many things.

Recommended to everyone on the face of Earth who can read. There are so many things I want to talk about this gem of a YA book but tonight I'll just carve pumpkins because I lost someone today. Rereading it tonight🌸


P.S. Will was one of my very first book-boyfriends who ruined me all the real boys because no body can ever be half as good and considerate as Will 😍😍 But hey, Colleen has always given me hope!


P.P.S. This book introduced me to slam poetry almost a decade ago. One of the reason I started writing in the first place but nothing I've ever written has ever been as good as #ButterflyYou was.

  Reading List 2021: Through the Eyes of a Forgotten Bibliophile by Avileena Dutta “ A first reading is something special, like first love.” –Graham Greene. It surely was, for me. When I first laid my hands on the evergreen literary masterpiece, Harry Potter, I fell in love with reading. And consequently, I delved deeper and deeper into the world of reading, finding solace, inspiration, and entertainment inside it. Although I wrote my first poem in grade two and have been a reader ever since I remember existing, it was when I read Harry Potter I truly found myself entering through the doors that led to a world of magic, letters, and meanings; the world of bibliophiles. But it all came to a screeching halt three years later, as I started to focus on boards, the pandemic, doing other things. And gradually and knowingly, I forgot about books. The role they played in my life, their magic, their importance. My shelves remained lonely, coated in dust and longing, while I moved on with my lif

Unleashed: Fae Shifters by Madilynn Dale | Review by Mohini Jugran

 Title- Unleashed: Fae Shifters 2 Author- Madilynn Dale Ratings- ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review- Unleashed is the second installment in the Fae Shifters series which continues the story after book one titled Releasing The Power Within. Madilynn Dale comes back with a very powerful and interesting return for the storyline.  It is fantasy novel that follows Liz through her journey as her life changes from a normal girl to a person with super natural powers.  I loved the way Madilynn has explored the magical fae world. It was very engrossing and engaging. The manner in which characters are developed sometimes shows that some work needs to be done but other things are quite good. The tale is masterfully woven and showcases an exquisite story. As it is not a standalone book, it is advised that one reads the first book in the series.  I found the plot interesting enough that I finished it in just two days. If you're looking for something interesting and short to read over the weekend, you can try this one
