HAPPY VALENTINES DAY MY LOVELIES! <3
If you aren't aware already, I am a hopeless romantic. I've been exploring this genre for three years now and it's safe to say that Romance books are probably my favorite kinds of books! They can be light, angsty, steamy and mysterious all at the same time. Today, i'll be sharing with you guys some of my favorite romance books of all time!
Of course, most of the books we read these days have a hint of romance in them no matter the genre. But the books i'll be sharing today are ones that have stories that focuses on the aspects and themes of love itself.
Now, without further ado, let's fall in love (or cry. but they mean the same thing when you read a really angsty book, right?)

Thoughts:
Okay I'm not the biggest fan of love triangles but this series just really works for me in a way?? xD It's soo addicting and interesting. It's a lot like America's (no pun intended) Next Top Model except it's a competition where girls compete for the prince's hand in marriage. Lots of people don't find this the best book out there and while I do agree, it's definitely a really light and cute read!

Synopsis:
To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before is the story of Lara Jean, who has never openly admitted her crushes, but instead wrote each boy a letter about how she felt, sealed it, and hid it in a box under her bed. But one day Lara Jean discovers that somehow her secret box of letters has been mailed, causing all her crushes from her past to confront her about the letters: her first kiss, the boy from summer camp, even her sister's ex-boyfriend, Josh. As she learns to deal with her past loves face to face, Lara Jean discovers that something good may come out of these letters after all.
Thoughts:
This book has my faaavorite family elements. The Covey family is just the cutest! This is one of those books that does not have much of a plot and it's mostly character driven so it focuses on the character development instead. It's a really fun and cute read!
Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins (Anna and The French Kiss #1 )

Thoughts:
Urgh this one's a frustrating book. But it's addicting. Love/hate relationships are just so complicated XD It's one of those books where the guy and the girl despises each at the beginning and then things start to spark once they get to know each other. It's one of my guilty pleasure trope ^^'
Until Friday Night by Abbi Glines (The Field Party #1)
Synopsis:
To everyone who knows him, West Ashby has always been that guy: the cocky, popular, way-too-handsome-for-his-own-good football god who led Lawton High to the state championships.

Even the move to Lawton, Alabama, couldn’t draw Maggie back out. So she stayed quiet, keeping her sorrow and her fractured heart hidden away.As West’s pain becomes too much to handle, he knows he needs to talk to someone about his father—so in the dark shadows of a post-game party, he opens up to the one girl who he knows won’t tell anyone else.West expected that talking about his dad would bring some relief, or at least a flood of emotions he couldn’t control. But he never expected the quiet new girl to reply, to reveal a pain even deeper than his own—or for them to form a connection so strong that he couldn’t ever let her go…
Thoughts:
This one was aaaangsty xD but SO satisfying! It's one of those books where the main characters are just so broken that you can't help but love them (or maybe it's just me cause i'm a sucker for characters with tragic pasts :'( ).

The first night after Caroline moves into her fantastic new San Francisco apartment, she realizes she's gaining an intimate knowledge of her new neighbor's nocturnal adventures.

And since Caroline is currently on a self-imposed dating hiatus, and her neighbor is clearly lethally attractive to women, she finds her fantasies keep her awake even longer than the noise. So when the wallbanging threatens to literally bounce her out of bed, Caroline, clad in sexual frustration and a pink baby-doll nightie, confronts Simon Parker, her heard-but-never-seen neighbor. The tension between them is as thick as the walls are thin, and the results just as mixed. Suddenly, Caroline is finding she may have discovered a whole new definition of neighborly...
Thoughts:
Lots of teasing. Main characters annoy the hell out of each other at the beginning but grows hot for one another. A bit annoying. SUPER FUNNY.

Thoughts:
This book is sooo unique! I love the fact that we got to go back and forth between Alex and Rosie's life just to keep us at the edge of our seat. I have to admit it's a bit frustrating, but I just couldn't put it down. It's super fast paced because the story is told through a series of letters and emails and it's super cute and gah. Read it.

Thoughts:
I actually can't quite remember what the story is about but I did remember absolutely LOVING it. It's got a wanderlust theme and I think it was angsty as well? Hah. I love Camryn and Andrew though. They're so relatable. Andrew is eVERYTHING <3

Thoughts:
The main characters in this are super awkward and adorable. I don't see this book around the web a lot and honestly it should be! It's a powerful book and I feel that everyone should read this! It's a bit of a slow burn but I promise you you will get something out of this book one way or another.
I'll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson

What the twins don't realize is that they each have only half the story, and if they could just find their way back to one another, they’d have a chance to remake their world.
Thoughts:
This book takes a bit of time to get into but once you get there, oh you'll devour it. It's heartbreaking and expressive and you just drown in Jandy Nelson's writing. It's full of emotion angst and I absolutely love it.

Thoughts:
I actually thought of putting this book down at first, but after getting through the first half (of which I skimmed through), things got so, so dark and I had to go back and pick up the bits and pieces that I left out. Gosh this tore me apart. I love Theodore Finch as a character - he's not the angsty type. He's loud and wild and quirky but he's so real. He's so real that it hurts. prOTECT THEODORE FINCH AT ALL COSTS.
Cinder by Marissa Meyer
Synopsis:
Sixteen-year-old Cinder is considered a technological mistake by most of society and a burden by her stepmother. Being cyborg does have its benefits, though: Cinder's brain interference has given her an uncanny ability to fix things (robots, hovers, her own malfunctioning parts), making her the best mechanic in New Beijing. This reputation brings Prince Kai himself to her weekly market booth, needing her to repair a broken android before the annual ball. He jokingly calls it "a matter of national security," but Cinder suspects it's more serious than he's letting on.Although eager to impress the prince, Cinder's intentions are derailed when her younger stepsister, and only human friend, is infected with the fatal plague that's been devastating Earth for a decade. Blaming Cinder for her daughter's illness, Cinder's stepmother volunteers her body for plague research, an "honor" that no one has survived.But it doesn't take long for the scientists to discover something unusual about their new guinea pig. Something others would kill for.
Thoughts:
Cinder is one of my favorite female protagonist ever. She's proves to be stronger and smarter than most protagonists I know and I have so much respect for her because of that. Yes she can be naive but she's sixteen for goodness sake and she gets into major trouble so you can't blame a teen for that can't you? Also - KAI IS MY BABY GAHHH <3 Love this book so much. This is my favorite YA series because each book gets better and it's also diverse and ugh it's perfect, okay? Now go read it will ya? xD
Rebel of The Sands by Alwyn Hamilton (Rebel of The Sands #1)
Synopsis:
She’s more gunpowder than girl—and the fate of the desert lies in her hands.
Mortals rule the desert nation of Miraji, but mystical beasts still roam the wild and barren wastes, and rumor has it that somewhere, djinni still practice their magic. But there's nothing mystical or magical about Dustwalk, the dead-end town that Amani can't wait to escape from.Destined to wind up "wed or dead," Amani’s counting on her sharpshooting skills to get her out of Dustwalk. When she meets Jin, a mysterious and devastatingly handsome foreigner, in a shooting contest, she figures he’s the perfect escape route. But in all her years spent dreaming of leaving home, she never imagined she'd gallop away on a mythical horse, fleeing the murderous Sultan's army, with a fugitive who's wanted for treason. And she'd never have predicted she'd fall in love with him... or that he'd help her unlock the powerful truth of who she really is.
Thoughts:
I didn't really like it the time I read it but that's just me. I probably would have liked it much better if I picked it up at a better time. It had loads of potential. This reminded me so much of The Wrath and the Dawn because of the main protagonist and the setting. I'd love to give this book another try because it won the Goodreads choice award.

Thoughts:
I'm not sure how many times i've described any of these books as 'heartbreaking' but this one is just a whole other level xD . It's very hard to read but rewarding somehow. It might not be everyone's cup of tea but it's really powerful, and I learned so much from this.

This one's so romantic <3 Renee Ahdieh has such eloquent writing.

Thoughts:
This ones's more sad-romantic than cute-romantic. It has a really slow build up and there isn't really any insta -love (which i appreciate). Did I mention that this one's angsty as well? xD It's a really deep, dark book but it holds so much meaning.

My Lea by E. Mellyberry (A Broken Love Story #1)
Synopsis:
A simple girl.
A broken guy.
One horrible incident.
When Lea Amelia landed her feet in San Francisco for her overseas study, her idea of freedom was simple, like eating junk food ten times a day, sitting in front of the TV in her PJs, or going out late with her friends without the need to check in with her mother constantly.
Then she met Andrew Jaya, her brothers’ best friend. A twenty-two-year-old guy whose physical appearance looked like he was crafted straight from God’s heavenly hands, but possessed a past as bleak as if it was drawn by Evil himself. A conflicted guy who wore sadness like nobody’s business beneath his mask, a perfect-looking mask she slowly peeled away.
He was also the guy who hurt her.
Suddenly, everything about her was no longer simple.
Andrew Jaya had convinced himself that not feeling was good for him. He'd been doing it splendidly for almost his entire life. But that was before his best friend’s sister stepped into his life and ruined it. After weeks of knowing Lea, all of those warm and wonderful feelings he’d long ago denied to himself started to reappear. Problem was, the brighter the light, the bigger the shadows that came with it.
His traumatic past refused to let him go.
When the unthinkable happened, the easiest thing to do was to run. But life often proves that the easiest way is usually the hardest.
Thoughts:
INDONESIAN PRIDE <3. I think this is the only Own voices book I've ever read (if you have any recommendations, do let me know!) I highly respect the author for being able to highlight such a bold topic (and also for having her book being sold all around some of Indonesia's well-known bookstores) <3 This book should reach more people internationally too. :)
Wow what a long list haha! I hope you found a book you'll be reading tonight :) Let me know if you've read any of these and what you thought of them!
