  This week, I finally had the chance to read a book I've heard so much about for years— named The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn't a Guy at All — that I have been begged to read. I've read enough manga and comic books to know that their general style is not usually something that catches my eye, as often they're quite fast-paced and tend to have many cliches, but I found this book to be very different from those I have already read. In The Guy She Was Interested In Wasn't a Guy at All , the name is quite self explanatory. It follows Mitsuki Koga and Aya Osawa— two high school students with very different lives. Mitsuki Koga is a quiet, anxious introvert who isn't particularly good at social interaction at school, but helps her uncle run a music shop that acts like her safe haven.

With its unique and intense dystopian setting, unforgettable characters, and powerful messages, it’s captured the hearts and well minds of many many readers, including mine! Whether you’ve just opened the first book for the first time or have re-read the trilogy countless times, this series stays with you long after the last page.  Here’s why The Hunger Games , Catching Fire , and Mockingjay are so amazingggg—and why I have so much to say about them!! The Setting: Panem Okay so the story takes place in a country called Panem —a nation made up of a controlling Capitol who is very wealthy, and 12, well formerly 13 districts that are basically forced to obey it. So, every year, the Capitol reminds the districts who is in charge by hosting the quite horrifying Hunger Games , where children—yeah, children—are forced to fight to the death on live TV. The C...
