Textrovert by Lindsey Summers
I requested this book because it said that it was a Wattpad book
that’s going to be published. Wattpad has some great stories and is an amazing platform to launch a writing career so of course, I want to support it in any way that I can. This story was originally published on Wattpad as The Cell Phone Swap. I read both the Wattpad version and this eARC before writing this review.
Everything, Everything – Book Review
Rating: 3/5
Everything, Everything by Nicola Yoon is a young adult contemporary romance with very little going on. I wanted to love this book, I really did but I just couldn’t. Though overall, in my opinion the book isn’t too great, it does have some excellent aspects.
