 Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell:                                   A  Review Please keep in mind that this review may contain spoilers. It is intended to share my opinion of the book and is geared toward people who have already read it. Also, some details will be left out; this to preserve dialogue and the storyline for potential readers, and just because I have forgotten things since reading. I began reading this story on January 17th, 2022 and finished it the following day.      Why I wanted to read it:     Prior to Eleanor & Park, I had heard mixed reviews about Rainbow Rowell. Looking past the negativity regarding her views and writing, there are a lot of readers who think she is an awesome YA author.  I wanted to give her work a fair chance and decided to read probably one of her most acclaimed works, Eleanor & Park. To add, I absolutely love young adult romance books, particularly those following the story in both characters' perspectives. I had a feeling I woul

      Providence by Caroline Kepnes: A Review Please keep in mind that this review may contain spoilers. I started reading this book on January 13th, 2022 and completed it the following day.

When I saw that she wrote a standalone novel, I just had to read it and see how it could compare to the Joe Goldberg saga. Don't get me wrong, I love the You series, but I felt that a more contemporary love story with a less complicated storyline would hit the spot.      The process of reading this book:     I opted to listen to the audiobook version of Providence so that I didn't have to read the physical book outside of work. As you'll see for many of my reviews and posts, I find that the con

          An Introduction to Read with Kaitlyn     Hello Everyone!       My name is Kaitlyn and I created this blog hoping that it will allow me to interact with people and share my story. The main topic of this blog is of course reading, but I will also be discussing other personal things from time to time. I decided to make a reading blog because, well, I love to read. There have been many times where I have been invested in an amazing book and so eager to share, only to realize that there really is no one to discuss it with. I know that this blog doesn't guarantee that I will be able to interact with people as I am reading, at least not initially; however, the thought of knowing that someone may come across this at some point makes me feel less alone and eager to just start sharing. I read many genres of books, but the majority of them fall in the romance category. I'm also a sucker for a good YA romance.      My goal is to put forth yet another perspective or review on the
