One of the books that I read in July was She Gets the Girl by Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick. I absolutely loved it and cannot recommend it enough. It is also full of beautiful quotes. So, I wanted to do what I normally do with a book that I enjoy, which is pick a quote from it and get designing.

What I Read in July!
Throughout July I have read a total of 11 books! I had a lot of luck this month with the amazing books I read and wanting to pick a new book up immediately after I finished one. So, I am back with another what I've read this month post. Here is a bunch of mini reviews for the books I read in July!
Something Certain, Maybe – Sara Barnard
Something Certain, Maybe is a companion novel to two of Sara Barnard’s other novels, Beautiful Broken Things and Fierce Fragile Hearts. The trio of Suzanne, Caddy and Rosie are back and in Something Certain, Maybe we follow Rosie’s story.
Book Lovers – Emily Henry
Book Lovers by Emily Henry is the perfect book to read this summer. It is full of humour, romantic moments and even some moments that will make you feel emotional. I’ve adored all of Emily Henry’s books but this one is easily my favourite of hers for so many reasons.
Something Wilder – Christina Lauren
Christina Lauren is a writing duo that I always feelI can trust to provide me with a good read. That is why I was beyond excited to read Something Wilder whilst I was on holiday. I knew it was something a little different for the pair but I didn’t realise to what extent. Let me tell you, this book blew my mind! It is unconventional and unique and it is truly exciting to devour.
My Nonidentical Twin – Evie Meg
Back in 2020, when TikTok became the new social media site, it was practically impossible to not see one of Evie’s (This Trippy Hippie) videos on there. Evie became a constant on my FYP (for you page) and her videos brought a smile to my face, educated and inspired me. So, when I learnt she was releasing a memoir I wanted to read it as soon as possible.
An Arrow to the Moon – Emily X. R. Pan
Hunter Yee has perfect aim with a bow and arrow, but all else in his life veers wrong. He's sick of being haunted by his family's past mistakes. The only things keeping him from running away are his younger brother, a supernatural wind and the bewitching girl at his new high school. Luna Chang dreads the future. Graduation looms ahead, and her parents' expectations are stifling. Then her life is turned upside down by the strange new boy in her class, the arrival of unearthly fireflies, and an ominous crack spreading across the town of Fairbridge.
Ellie Pillai is Brown – Christine Pillainayagam
My name is Ellie. Ellie Pillai . . . And I suppose I am a little bit weird, but then, aren't we all, just a little bit? Most days, Ellie Pillai is somewhere between invisible, and not very cool - and usually she's okay with that. But suddenly, Ellie feels different. Maybe it's the new boy at school who makes her brain explode into rainbows every time she sees him (and also happens to be going out with her best friend), or maybe it's her new drama teacher, the one who seems to have noticed she exists.
Why is Nobody Laughing? – Yasmin Rahman
Will the real Ibrahim Malik please stand up? Ibrahim and Dexter have been best friends forever. While Dexter is always cool and confident, Ibrahim...well, Ibrahim's dealing with a lot. Hiding his passion for comedy from his family, dealing with the pressure of being the oldest child in an immigrant family, and now he's started having episodes he soon realises are panic attacks.
Her Dark Wings – Melinda Salisbury
The great love of Corey’s life has always been her best friend, Bree: closer than sisters, their bond is unbreakable. Or so Corey believes, until Bree betrays her, and Corey’s world is shattered. Corey finds herself heartbroken, furious and alone... Only to discover that the Underworld – and Hades, Lord of the Dead – is closer than she thinks...
