Out of the 9 (!) books I have from.yoir list, I've read 3 (Roller Girl, The Butch and the Beautiful, and As La Vista Turns.)

I also DNF'd Karen Memory. Still not sure if it was the genre or the writing itself. All I know is that the longer I read, the more frustrated I got with that novel. #FFreadingFAILforme #Sadkittenface

I can definitely see how karen memory would either be a YES or a nooooope. it's very stylized. I HEARTILY recommend Poppy Jenkins if that is one of the ones you have. I found it SO satisfying. one of those books that feels like you aren't just passing the time reading it.

It certainly didn't help that Karen Memory got mega!hyped. I dunno, it'd been a while since I had struggled so much with a book. And, like, since I do have tons of books on my TBR, I couldn't rationalize forcing myself to read something that was so frustrating. #Gofigure

As it happens, I haven't read Poppy Jenkins so I've added it to my buy list. ^__^!
