diary of a wannabe writer

Valentine lives with her father. She has an imaginary friend, a Cupid. She loves Valentine's Day and celebrates it each year by making cards for her classmates. That all changes when she finds out the truth about the mother. She stops celebrating the holiday and is heartbroken by the truth. That becomes even worse when she meets the spirit of Saint Valentine. She is ready to give her heart away, until one Lunar New Year festival, when she gets a paper heart. She is ready to believe again, but the road to love isn't easy. It's a lovely story about finding your way back to love and dealing with a harsh family trust. And the artwork is very pretty too. :) rating❤❤❤ ❤ cover❤❤❤❤ artwork  ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

The story follows Joana, a young witch, as she navigates her first job and deals with mental health issues. It's a beautifully illustrated story that explores deeper issues in a very relatable way. I highly recommend it! rating❤❤❤ ❤ cover❤❤❤❤ artwork  ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

Ruined is a Regency-era graphic novel. It follows Catherine and Andrew. Catherine has turned away every suitor, but this year after a scandal, her father made arrangements to marry her off to Andrew Davaner. He desperately needs the money and she needs a husband to shut off the rumours.  It was just supposed to be a marriage of convenience, but as they got to know each other, the sparks flew between them.  It's a slow-burn romance, but a good one. I like the story very much, but didn't like the artwork all that much. rating ❤ ❤ ❤ cover  ❤ ❤ ❤ art  ❤ ❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

He worries about coming out to his dad, but mostly he worries about Charlie.  He sees him getting worse and worse, to the point that he doesn't spend much time at school.  They both have to come to terms that they can't be everything for each other and find a balance between love and everything else.  rating❤❤❤ ❤ ❤ cover ❤❤❤❤❤ artwork❤❤❤❤❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

Charlie and Nick continue to fall deeper and deeper in love in the second book of the Heartstopper series. The book is cuteness overload.  Charlie has known that he is gay for a long time, but for Nick, all of this is very new. He is not ready to tell anyone just yet, so they keep their relationship a secret. At least for a while.  But they are not as subtle as they seem. :) The story is adorable and relatable and it just makes you want to read more. The writing is good and the artwork is seriously adorable. :) rating❤❤❤ ❤ ❤ cover ❤❤❤ ❤ ❤ artwork ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

Charlie is an openly gay student in year 10 at Truham Grammar School for Boys. Since coming out the year before, he faced a lot of bullying, but it has gotten better since then. Now he is seated next to Nick, who is a year 11. Nick is on a school rugby team. He heard about Charlie, but they never talked. They start talking each time they have class together and never really stop. They get closer when Charlie joins the rugby team. They soon became good friends, always hanging out even after school, and Charlie finds himself falling from Nick. But Nick is straight. Only lately he catches him looking and he seems to always find a way to touch him. It's the cutest, most wholesome start of a romance. I loved reading every page of it! The slowly developing romance between Charlie and Nick it's just the most romantic thing. :) And the artwork is pretty too! <3 rating❤❤❤ ❤ ❤ cover ❤❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ artwork ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie
