I'm sorry that I have been MIA lately. I went on a vacation to Maldives and as soon as a came back I got sick that is why I haven't been uploading here. But check out my instagram  @isabelsamonte  because I post there regularly and also I have created a separate instagram for books and other bookish posts @ @reading_bella  . Moving on, I just got out of a bad reading slump and because of that I was behind my reading challenge. So, I decided to do a weeklong readathon so I can get back on track, which is 120 books. My goal was to read one book a day so seven books in total but I only read 6 and half books. I did not finished The Song of Achilles because I spend my whole Sunday in bed because I was not feeling well and also I watched the World Cup finals instead of reading.

Title: Only A Kiss Author: Ines Bautista - Yao Release Date: November 29, 2014 Publisher: Chamber Shell Publishing  PLOT: (Source: goodreads) When she was nine-years-old, Katie knew she wanted Chris to give her her first kiss. It wasn’t because she was in love with him (no way, he was her best friend! Besides, she was in love with his fourteen-year-old big brother), it was because she could make him do anything she wanted. Besides, it didn't really mean anything. It was only a kiss after all. But then things started to change. They grew up. They parted ways and went to different high schools. And other girls and boys—well, just one particular boy—came into the picture, throwing their lives upside down. Told from the alternating points of view of Katie and Chris, this love story between two best friends will tug at your heartstrings and leave you thinking how the simplest things can mean so much.
