I’ve seen this on many book blogs and wanted to try it out since I hardly have posts ready for my Sundays. 😕 So let’s try it out!

This week’s topic is:

Books That Made You FEEL

What it made me FEEL?

This book made me feel everything from anger, despair, hope and love. It made me laugh, it made me cry – multiple times. I felt like Nesta’s story was something I could relate to on many levels.

I felt grief and broken. But I also felt healing, centering, purpose and inspired as well.

Every time I think of this book now I want to sob remembering what Nesta had to do to climb out of the darkness she was living in.

What it made me feel?

This is one depressing book – from chapter one. And because it is based on historical events, the Dust Bowl in the 1920’s, it made me feel scared, anxious, desperate for the families that lived through it and admiration for how they survived.

The mother’s love element in this story killed me. Seriously killed me how it portrayed what a mother will do for her children.

What it made me feel?

This one is a feel good, funny rom-com young adult story. It made me nostalgic for all the amazing rom-com movies of my youth and the music playlist too is good.

It made me feel happy and I was smiling at the end.

What it made me feel?

This story made me feel all kinds of things from excitement to dread. It has a lot of action so it’s very thrilling.

It made me feel excited to see the King Arthur story modernized with a fun spin to it. It made me feel conflicted with the love triangle but I know who I want Bree to end up with haha.

It made me feel like I need the sequel yesterday. 🤷🏻‍♀️

What it made me feel?

First thought – hungry. All the Sicilian food mentioned and described in this book made me so ravenous the whole time I was reading it. I think I ate pasta the next day.

I felt dark and witchy reading this especially since I read it around Halloween.

What it made me feel?

This book from the cover alone made me feel good and happy. The story made me feel like I needed to be like Skye who is confident and living her best life just being herself.

It made me feel inspired and motivated. It also made me laugh.

Of course the dog in the book gave me all the cutesy feels also!
