Sometimes, a book so clearly communicates the emotional state of the characters that it becomes painfully familiar. It is relatable to the point that I instinctively want to distance myself from it. Starworld is one of those animals, and although its characters have very different life circumstances to my own, their loneliness and vulnerability brought me right back to being a teenager againâdrowning in emotions and not having the resources to manage them.
Starworld by Audrey Coulthurst and Paula Garner was reviewed @ the Lesbrary
Sam Jones and Zoe Miller have one thing in common: they both want an escape from reality. Loner Sam flies under the radar at school and walks on eggshells at home to manage her momâs obsessive-compulsive disorder, wondering how she can ever leave to pursue her dream of studying aerospace engineering. Popular, people-pleasing Zoe puts up walls so no one can see her true self: the girl who was abandoned as an infant, whose adoptive mother has cancer, and whose disabled brother is being sent away to live in a facility. When an unexpected encounter results in the girlsâ exchanging phone numbers, they forge a connection through text messages that expands into a private universe they call Starworld. In Starworld, they find hilarious adventures, kindness and understanding, and the magic of being seen for who they really are. But when Samâs feelings for Zoe turn into something more, will the universe theyâve built survive the inevitable explosion?

October Wrap-Up
Alright, October was a weak month for me again, who would have thought! đ
No, honestly, something has changed from the beginning of the year, when 6 books per month felt fairly manageable, to now, where I cut that number in half. Iâm not sure what it is. I mean, Iâve just started my masterâs programme and am kind of busy with that and also, I think Iâve just read longer books lately?Â
Who knows. Iâm a little embarrassed, but also telling myself that I shouldnât be! This is a good reading pace for me at the moment, one thatâs enjoyable for me, reading is a hobby and all that, so why should I feel guilty for âonlyâ reading three books this month?Â
Also if you have read three or less books this month⌠I see you, youâre still a valid bookworm, itâs actually 100% fine, no matter what people on here make it seem like and yeah, youâre good. â¤ď¸
Books Iâve read in October, 2019:Â
- The Goldfinch (Donna Tartt) - Ninth House (Leigh Bardugo)
Audiobooks Iâve listened to in October 2019:Â
- Starworld (Audrey Coulthurst & Paula Garner)
I really enjoyed all three of these a lot! The Goldfinch is a 4.5 goodreads stars for me, I think, Ninth House 3 stars and Starworld 4 stars.Â
