Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare
5.0
My favorite play by Shakespeare! So good, and SO funny. I would recommend reading this with a guide or someone explaining it to you, because the use of language is kind of hard to understand sometimes. But once you do, it is totally worth it!
The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks
1.0
How they managed to make a movie out of this book that I actually loved is beyond me... I kind of hated everything about this.
De donkere kamer van Damokles by Willem Frederik Hermans
1.0
I read this when I was 16 and I just despised this novel. Don’t know why, and my friends tell me it’s actually quite good, but I can’t bring myself to read it again.
One Plus One by Jojo Moyes

To be honest, I don’t remember much of this book, which probably isn’t a very good sign. I remember low-key enjoying it, but I wouldn’t expect to much of it. If you want to read something by Jojo Moyes, I would recommend Me Before You or The Giver of Stars!
The Girl on the Train by Paula Hawkins
2.0
I don’t read a lot of thrillers, so I find it hard to place this novel. The character is kind of unlikeable, and so are many of the others. Even though I think it was meant to be written so that you don’t figure out “whodunit” until the end, I literally already knew halfway through the book, which kind of spoiled it for me. I therefore didn’t really enjoy it, and I also wouldn’t really recommend it to anyone. The same goes for the movie, by the way.
