Autumn Readers discussion

YEA!! I am so excited!!

Me too 😁😁 like I said, I've been meaning to asking you for a week, ever since I saw that you're cool to buddy read any book you had in your owned shelves

it was on your bio btw

anyways I saw you've already started it, how far along are you ? I can catch up in a day and then we can discuss

I am only on chap 3 but I have schools ok. For six hours so I don’t think I will be able to do a lot of reading then

that's okay, I have classes as well but I try to read as much in between breaks. Anyways, do you want to set a chapter limit per day so that we can discuss after reaching a limit everyday ?

how many chapters are there?

42 chapters in total

ok, how many chapters should we do, the chaoters are pretty short so maybe 10?

I mean the chapters are like 10 pages too

only if you want to though

yeah, let's do that 👍 I was about to suggest 8 chapters but I can do 10 chapters per day 👍

okie! Should I read chapter 10 (stop at chapter 11) today.

How do you make it to say spoilers are there?

Finish chapter 10 today 👍 and to add spoiler tag, you have to do this

<*spoiler> discussion of book <*/spoiler>

But don't add the ( * ) part, I have to add it so that it doesn't close itself as spoiler. If you're not sure, just try it in this thread and you'll get the hang of it. Remember, the first spoiler doesn't have a backward slash and the last spoiler should have that slash

ok, thanks

okay, I finished until chapter 10 and we can discuss when you're free 😊✌️

Spoilers until chap 10:

I love how the author shows herself in Tessa. I love the writing aspect and love how the author incorperates real life problems into the book. I just love this book so much!!! The way it feels like I am actually in the school and wwatching Tessa expeirence this is just amazing!! I also love Tessa's friends and her brother personality. Well, so far it is 5/5 star book!!

Surya what is your time zone?

GMT+5:30

Chapter 1-10 (view spoiler)[ I love this book so much. All the characters are interesting and hilarious to an extent. It picks on all the issues we have when we move to a new school and it portrays everything to perfection. I felt that too, like maybe the author was like Tessa in her younger years. I get why Tessa seems to worry about not being worthy enough to attend the class there, but romance is a great genre as well and we've only read few parts of her story, but they are so much better than 60% the mainstream romance book I've read in my life 😂😂

Sam was really nice even though has a unique sense of dressing and Lenore and Theo are interesting and good characters as well. I've always wanted to read a book where the lead character is starting out on their aim to get published and this is the perfect book I could think of.

I loved the relationship between her mom and Tessa. It's so lovely and they have mutual respect towards each other which is unique to find in a YA book these days 😁 and I'm so glad the teacher didn't look at Tessa's work on the paper on her first day 😂😂 I would have been terrified 🤣 and I love his brother and his wisdoms sometimes. I loved the pranks though 😂 (hide spoiler)]

you have to add spoiler tags before and after what you posted ( everything ) so that others wouldn't see it. Can I know your time zone ?

oh sorry,

my time zone is EST in america

What chapter are you on??!!

Chapters 11-20
(view spoiler)[ I am in love with this book so far, I mean, Sam he is such a sweet character and I just love how the author has described him. Another thing I love is how caring everybody is towards other people. I love how Tessa is such a funny, sweet, nice and kind character and she is just such a great Main Character. the only thing I dislike but like in the book not in the way the author is (if you know what I mean?) is that Caroline, I appriciate it, how she helps Tessa and stuff like that but like I kinda feel bad for Tessa when she feels left out, I mean Caroline should be more careful and what she says to Tessa, finally, A PARTY!! with NICO!! I cannot wait to see what happens!! (hide spoiler)]

Hey, sorry I didn't get the notification even though I've already enabled instant email for this thread. I will be starting chapter 21 today

Chapter 11-20 (view spoiler)[ I thoroughly enjoyed these past chapters. Even though the overall theme of the book focuses on Tessa getting her groove back, there's also some serious moments ( when her mom got mad at her at corner when Miles was causing a scene ) Tessa is really amazing and you're kinda right, Caroline should be mindful of when she talks about her life to Tessa because Caroline only misses Tessa ( her best friend ) but Tessa is missing everyone and everything except her family. But I can give her some slack, since it's her first relationship with a guy and obviously she would feel on cloud nine after something like that.

I don't feel comfortable that Tessa is putting all her attention on Nico ( even though he's cute and brooding and thoughtful ) I feel like maybe she should try to start thinking about writing again. Maybe she will get her writing powers back after the party 😂 Also I don't know how you felt about this, but every time Tessa was asked to submit her story for workshop, I felt like I didn't finish my homework and I felt the similar feeling of dread ( which I think is amazing because it kinda tells how invested into this story and character I am 😅 )

Sam is the best. I do feel like he's harbouring something for Tessa and maybe he feels bad she's pining for Nico. I really hope Nico is a good guy but if you ask me, I could only see Tessa with Sam 😂 They seem perfect for me and their chemistry is good, because any other girl would have felt weirded out by Sam already with his goofy antics ( he's adorable and kind ) (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I totally agree with your thoughts. I definiltey feel bad for Sam because I think he kikes Tessa and Tessa is all thingking about Nico so she probably doesn't notice Sam. (Although I did) (hide spoiler)]

Chapters 21-30
(view spoiler)[ the party... I loved the way that there is a gay relasionship in the story and it is great how the author expands. I love how much I relate to Tessa in ways I never imangined. Onto Halloween, I feel like Tessa is just abandoning her actual friends for something (I personally) think will not work out in her favor. I do think that Nico is a great character but I do not think he is the right person for her. Technically I mean this story could be put in the love triangle trope because of Sam but I mean that is probably impossible. Now on the the last topic for the spoiler Caroline coming!! I was so excited for this part!! And I did really enjoy but wish I had more of it. I feel like Tessa is becoming more and more like Caroline and only caring about her emotions and love life instead of Carolines too. And for Caroline and her boyfirend becoming stronger in their relansionship!! I love that for them. One, more thin, I think that Sam is so innocent and that Tessa should see that he does like her and that Carolines plan about Nico not working out and that it should be Sam is such a great thing (hide spoiler)]

What book are you currenlty reading @Surya?

Hey, I'm planning on reading Dear Martin now and I'm also thinking of picking up a literary fiction ( serious fiction ? ) 😂 If you have any suggestions, feel free to recommend ☺️ also I'm glad you're loving this book 😊
