if you're looking for more archaeology type books then i really recommend Us in Ruins by Rachel Moore! It comes out in September and I just read it. It's a YA that follows Margot as she goes on a school archaeology trip to Italy but she has her own agenda-she wants to venture on a quest to uncover and reassemble an ancient and cursed vase. There's a really great slow burn romance (that had me screaming at the book for them to kiss which is always fun) between Margot and a boy who helps her find this vase-he's also the same boy who went missing in 1932 while searching for the vase who was turned into a statue that she discovers on her quest. the description on goodreads says "With a blend of humor, magic, and love, Rachel Moore crafts another stand-alone adventure romcom full of double and triple crosses, hilarious shenanigans, and frustration fueled banter, where the best treasure is true love." her debut novel is also great called, The Library of Shadows-it came out last year and is a great spooky (and a bit kooky) romcom! But I definitely recommend keeping an eye out for Us In Ruins when it comes out in September!!

I literally bought Just For The Summer the day after watching your vlog 🥺 Can't wait to read and love it 🥰

Persuasion is my favorite Jane Austen novel because it was her last completed one, and you can really see her growth as a writer in it. And fun fact, the argument she makes throughout the book about not allowing others to persuade you is the opposite of advice she previously gave to her beloved niece.

My favorite of May was Night of the Dragon by Julie Kagawa, the third book in the Shadow of the Fox trilogy (HIGHLY recommend for anime fans or anyone interested in Japanese mythology). My "least favorite" was probably To Kill a Shadow by Katherine Quinn, because every relationship was told, not shown, so there was no emotional impact.

I'm so glad you liked Persuasion! I agree, the romance was so cute and the ending with the letter???? I got it as a sticker and it sits in the case of my kindle, I know the beginning of it by heart

Ah I’m so happy you read about Moomins! I’m from Finland, where the Moomins are also from, and I love seeing people from around the world enjoying our little creatures by Tove Jansson ❤

There’s one more book by Abby Jimenez in the series… Yours Truly. Goes after Part of Your World and before Just for the Summer. More characters you need to meet before Just for the Summer! ❤
