Currently I’m…
I'm back again with another 'Currently I'm...' post. For those who don't now, I started doing these posts because I am always interested in finding out what other people's currents are. I love knowing what other people are currently reading, watching and listening to. Here is this month's 'Currently I'm...'.

Sal goes on to develop an unlikely friendship with Pax, whose love for all things spooky drew him to the house and its inhabitants. But as the two grow closer, the true nature of the hauntings is gradually revealed. Will Sal find the courage to conquer his ghosts, or will he risk losing Pax for good?

Ophelia After All – Racquel Marie
Ophelia Rojas knows what she likes: her best friends, Cuban food, rose-gardening, and boys - way too many boys. Her friends and parents make fun of her endless stream of crushes, but Ophelia is a romantic at heart. She couldn't change, even if she wanted to. So when she finds herself thinking more about cute, quiet Talia Sanchez than the loss of a perfect prom with her ex-boyfriend, seeds of doubt take root in Ophelia's firm image of herself. Add to that the impending end of high school and the fracturing of her once-solid friend group, and things are spiraling a little out of control.
The American Roommate Experiment by Elena Armas – Quote
I'm about to start reading The American Roommate Experiment by Elena Armas. I know this book will be full of excellent quotes. I've already seen one online which I love. So, I wanted to do what I normally do when I find a quote I enjoy, which is get designing.
Seoulmates – Susan Lee
Hannah Cho had the next year all planned out—the perfect summer with her boyfriend, Nate, and then a fun senior year with their friends. But then Nate does what everyone else in Hannah’s life seems to do—he leaves her, claiming they have nothing in common. He and all her friends are newly obsessed with K-pop and K-dramas, and Hannah is not. After years of trying to embrace the American part and shunning the Korean side of her Korean American identity to fit in, Hannah finds that’s exactly what now has her on the outs.
