✰Cluedo (or Clue) is a board game where the object of the game is to determine who murdered the game's victim, where the crime took place, and which weapon was used.

✰Each time I post a set of three books (that fits one suspect, one weapon, one room), a moderator from The Challenge Factory group on Goodreads will will tell me which of the three I got correct.

✰Once I have correctly guessed a Suspect, Weapon or Room, I do not have to read a book for it when preparing for another guess.

The Unhoneymooners ~ Christina Lauren

Started: July 1st 2019

Finished: July 3rd 2019

Rated: 4.5

Likes: Romance, Banter between characters, Main characters, Change in POV at the end

Dislikes: The whole no-one believes Olive thing, including Ami & Ethan. Dane's heada*s.

Notes: I knew Dane was a heada*s from the beginning but I'm glad that it was hinted to throughout the entire book. But when Ethan decided to break up with Olive just because she wanted to talk about what genuinely happened to her, man was I mad at Ethan. THEN, Ami has the nerve to come in and tell Olive off for trying to help her and just goes on a rant being like "you have no ambition, you're negative and pessimistic, you're pretty much jealous of me and your relationship with Ethan isn't sh*t." like okay sis be petty.. anyways I didn't like any of that.

Started: July 14th 2019

Finished: July 16th 2019

Rated: 4

Likes: Relatable, personal growth aspects, moving on from a relationship

Dislikes: talking about relying on someone else

Notes: I did really enjoy this and I will 100% be reading other stuff by R.H Sin, the one thing I didn't like about this is that it talked about relying on someone else for a short period of time. I don't know if it was mentioned simply because it wanted to address the people that are subconsciously doing that, to help them realize but that part made me feel a certain type of way and I didn't enjoy that.
