Mini Reviews: Ramona Blue, Queens of Geek & Obsidio|4 Star Reads From June (ft. All The Screaming).

I loved all these books!! But, I’m too lazy to write full reviews!! 

I read all of these books last month, and they all got 4/4.5 stars out of 5!! Also, it’s been a literal age since I published a review on here?? Who is terrible at reviews?? ME!! 

It was my mum’s birthday at the weekend, and omg it was so nice and relaxing and the food guys. The FOOD.

And I honestly have no idea what to write in this into so I’m just going to ignore it.

I gave this ★★★★½!! I adored this story, I think that it was great and I adored the representation of finding out more about her sexuality and how it’s fluid. It wasn’t her being “fixed” or anything.

I didn’t completely understand Ramona’s character, sometimes I just thought “what on earth are you doing? why are you doing this?” and because of that there was this real cliche event that I just knew was going to happen from the get-go and that’s why it dropped to 4.5 stars. Also because there wasn’t that much plot. It could have been a bit more “plotty” but I think that the plot was Ramona finding/discovering herself.

All the side characters were wonderfully developed and I adore them. Saul was fabulous and deserves all the love in the world, he honestly does. He was fabulous and literally the Queen of Fun and all things Great.

“All my gay dreams are coming true” 

It’s ^^  probably one of my favourite quotes in the whole book and comes from him. He honestly deserves everything and all the love ever. 

Freddie is another example of an amazing side character. He’s the smollest, most understanding creature. And Ramona’s sister was also great and I loved how close they are. And there was so much food in this book.

I gave this book★★★★ because it was fluffy and wonderful.

The representation was brilliant, there was a bi Asian mc!! and the other MC was the fat character that is on the autism spectrum and anxiety!!

Jamie, a side character in the book was an absolute sunflower and just a smol human that’s probably really tall but will always be really smol in my mind.

There were so many Fangirls and Fanboys!! JUST ALL THE HUGE INTERNET PEOPLE REP!! WHICH MAKES MY HEART SO HAPPY. I just adore books with internet rep!!

“There’s no one way to be a girl, Tay. You don’t need to fit yourself into what society tells us a girl should be. Girls can be whoever they want.”

The romances were so great and I feel like the f/f one went a little fast, but I still really enjoyed it and I JUST LOVE THE REPRESENTATION. I think that it all went a little fast, because you know,,, it was set over three days.

BUT!! I would have liked a little more about anxiety, and sensory overload was kind of brushed over and I would have liked more?? And also,,, I feel like they were all so perfect, too perfect tbh (see quote above — it’s just all so perfect) and understandable and never made any mistakes and?? IT WAS A TAD UNREALISTIC and that’s why it dropped the star!!

 I also have this book ★★★★ because it was great.

I’m still not over how amazing the formatting is. I just love Nik Malikov and his descriptions of the video footage. I just can’t get over how much I love him.

I feel like this was another fabulous book in the trilogy, and even though it took me three months to read, it’s one of my favourites.

So much action and deception and I am just trash for that. So trash for that. SO SO trash for that. There were some boring moments in the beginning, but it really picked up at the end and I was just gripped. I loved all of it.

“Live a life worth dying for.”

“Every story needs its hero. And its villain. And its monster.”

I wasn’t so fond of the conclusion. I was all for it, it was getting so GORY and PLOTTY and marvellous in the rebellion-ness and then… there was this ending and??? it wasn’t totally realistic??? I mean??? I think that it just fell flat a bit??

There were two HUGE plot twists (and absolutely nothing to with my fabulous Nik Malikov) and they had me on the edge of my seat and literally not breathing. It was great.

Despite the semi-unrealistic (ok, really unrealistic) ending, it was still a FANTASTIC read and just SO POW POW POW.
