And everything about this moment is so lovely and so fragile in its loveliness that I’m almost afraid to hold it. gasp* but i loved him sm fr, he was so sweet and studious and cute and I WOULD DIE FOR HIM did i mention? Of course, even as the “study machine” perfect child, she made some questionable decisions that almost landed herself in PRISON🤑💅✨✨. i don't know what ann liang puts in her books, but i could have read this in one setting if i hadn't stopped myself.

When she isn't stressing out over her college assignments or writing, she can be found making over-ambitious to-do lists, binge-watching dramas, and having profound conversations with her pet labradoodle about who's a good dog.i went into this with super high expectations - everyone was rating it five stars and i was 100% convinced it was going to be my new favorite book.

For how analytical she is, she is also such an emotional little bean who wears her feelings on her sleeve. after the encounter, suddenly, a wave of unease washes over her as she begins to shiver uncontrollably, her breath quickening and becomes invisible, realizing something is terribly wrong.This had such an interesting magical realism element – although this book is set in the real world and feels like a contemporary, our main character does have the power of invisibility that adds a fantasy layer. When a sudden ability to become invisible appears, Alice takes matters into her own hands and decides to profit off this power. the way he’s always trying to get on alice’s nerves was so adorable ahh the fact they were academic rivals but he has a photo of him and alice on his desk? I just really felt Alice’s character and her feelings, the such strong wanting and how this drives her character.
