Jade City caused SO. MUCH. DISTRESS. In a good way, thankfully. Fonda Lee creates characters that will make you want to be invested in and care about them, but then rip out your heart while you’re crying. The story was a little hard to get into at first only because I spend 98% of my reading with YA, but once I got used to it, I really enjoyed Jade City! I loved being immersed in the world of Kekon and jade with the growing tensions between the No Peak and Mountain clans. It keeps you on the edge of your seat, wanting to know when and if something will explode between the clans, and I’m on the hunt for Jade War as soon as my library pile dwindles down.

I can't believe this is the first time I've ever watched this movie. If we're being honest, the plot line doesn't really make a whole lot of sense. Like it does, but it doesn't, ya know? And I know this is supposed to be one of the best rom-com's of all time and I can definitely see that, that makes sense to me. But this plotline is so weird.

I really enjoyed the film, don't get me wrong. It just definitely wasn't what I was expecting. I have this really weird thing about Tom Cruise. I don't know what it is, he's just not one of my favorites, but I really loved him in this film. He had me crying, that's for sure. He's a standout, no doubt about it.

Firstly, this book was written almost ten years ago when MySpace was a really popular site. Now if it had been a newer, edited version where all the MySpace's were replaced with Facebook or Twitter I might have gelled with it a little more.

Secondly, it's supposed to be YA but the way the characters were acting for 18 year olds was pretty ridiculous at times. It was like they were fifteen or something. I struggled to get Courtney. She was so annoying at times, so whiny and inner turmoil-y. So immature compared to some other books I've read lately.

Thirdly, the thing that split them up was pretty obvious after about 100 pages. A lot of drama over something that could have been so easily sorted out.

Not my sort of book.
