This book was such a fun read. Can't wait to start "Here's to us" soon. Arthur and Ben are such sweethearts and I can't wait to see what the universe has in store for them!✨

okay!! finished “he’s to us” by becky abertolli and adam silvera (sorry i know i spelt one of their names wrong) last week and i’ve been trying to really think of the right words for this book review, but i cant. This book has left me speechless. It has such a good touch of realism and the most unrealistic love at the same time. This book made me want to believe that love in story books are based on real life, not just something people make up to make them feel better. For me personally, this book makes me think so much about the world, and how we end up where we are and who we are with. The plot of the story and edging most definitely did NOT disappoint. The character development from the first book to the second really captures what it’s like to grow up, do lead your life into different directions. This book also depicts what it means to really be inlove with someone, and that love really isn’t something you can force. The book tells a story that shows many different kinds of love. Platonic, unrequited, true love, and family love. Something that everyone should experience in life and I loved it. It’s definitely a 5/5 in my book.

Behind the Scenes for Winter 2022/2023
This past winter has been full classic literature substacks and #DungeonsandDragons. Reading War and Peace, Moby Dick and Les Mis at the same time has only made me a little insane.
This winter hasn’t really felt like winter. It’s just been so warm. Snow was here and gone within a week… It’s been warm and wet, which is not what an Ohio winter should be. I ended up spending a lot of time indoors because of the rain, and also it was frankly just depressing to go outside in January and be met with 50-60 degrees weather, so I wound up reading a lot. I also had a lot of substacks…

This was supposed to just be a rough sketch, but then I started getting really invested in it.
I hadn't initially intended to include so many picture book characters, but the nostalgia was overwhelming. Does anyone remember the animated short films produced by Weston Woods? My local library used to have a bunch of them on the Scholastic VHS tapes from the late 90s. (I know some shorts were released on the Children's Circle VHS tapes back in the 80s (🎶 Come on along! Come on along! Join the caravan!), and some were packaged in Sammy's Story Shop in 2008.)

Max, from Where the Wild Things Are, written and illustrated by Maurice Sendak

I start reading Here's To Us.
OK, Mario Colón is definitely more beautiful than Arthur Seuss, but Arthur belong with Ben and Ben belong with Arthur. STOP.
I think that this book will make me cry more than What If It's Us and it gives you a lot of hopeness but at the end i think that i will be sad and disappointed because ADAM SILVERA IS MY FAVOURITE WRITER BUT HE MAKES ME ALWAYS CRY AND IT WILL BE STRANGE THAT IN ONE OF HIS BOOKS THERE'S A HAPPY ENDING.

People don't warn you that heartbreak is a chronic condition. Maybe it quiets down a little over time, or you can muffle it with distance, but the ache never quite dials down to zero. It's there lurking in the background, ready to flare back up the minute you let your guard down.
Here's to us, Becky Albertalli & Adam Silvera
