February Wrap up - Book Haul & What to Expect Next Month

Hi dear follower,

February is finished already. I spent the most of my February in Kenya, I will write a blogpost on that tomorrow.

It was lovely over there and the trip changed me in so many ways.

Here in The Netherlands it looks like winter is going on at its fullest, although it's spring in 3 weeks already. I went from 34 degrees Celsius over to -10 degrees Celsius. 

My reading month has been good! High scores and great books were part of my reading month. I received some nice books as well, so I'm very happy about this month.

Thanks for reading, have a good reading month this March! ❥

Synopsis
Seventeen-year-old Molly Peskin-Suso knows all about unrequited love—she’s lived through it twenty-six times. She crushes hard and crushes often, but always in secret. Because no matter how many times her twin sister, Cassie, tells her to woman up, Molly can’t stomach the idea of rejection. So she’s careful. Fat girls always have to be careful.

Then a cute new girl enters Cassie’s orbit, and for the first time ever, Molly’s cynical twin is a lovesick mess. Meanwhile, Molly’s totally not dying of loneliness—except for the part where she is. Luckily, Cassie’s new girlfriend comes with a cute hipster-boy sidekick. Will is funny and flirtatious and just might be perfect crush material. Maybe more than crush material. And if Molly can win him over, she’ll get her first kiss and she’ll get her twin back.
