Review: Solitaire by Alice Oseman


Solitaire by Alice OsemanSolitaire
by Alice Oseman
March 30, 2015
368 pages

Goodreads Summary:
In case you're wondering, this is not a love story.

My name is Tori Spring. I like to sleep and I like to blog. Last year – before all that stuff with Charlie and before I had to face the harsh realities of A-Levels and university applications and the fact that one day I really will have to start talking to people – I had friends. Things were very different, I guess, but that's all over now.

Now there's Solitaire. And Michael Holden.

I don't know what Solitaire are trying to do, and I don't care about Michael Holden.

I really don't.

This incredible debut novel by outstanding young author Alice Oseman is perfect for fans of John Green, Rainbow Rowell and all unflinchingly honest writers.

I read these 'real' books in the month of February.

The Winner's Curse by Marie RutkoskiSolitaire by Alice Oseman

I think it's safe to say I epically failed the challenge since I only managed to read two real books...... Crossing my fingers I'll do better in March!

How many 'real' books did you read in the month of February?

Haven't really seen anyone talk about this book but the synopsis sounds interesting so I'm very curious.

What are you guys waiting on this week?
