WRAP UP MAY 2021 - Part 1/2 Hey!  I've read a lot in May, if I'm honest.

Five books that talk about self-love & social issues There are a lot of books that are considered romance or fantasy books that, according to the popular opinion, are about the plot or the romance between two or more characters. Well, in this post I'm going to explain my point of view about how some books should be considered more books about self-love, about how to heal, than fantasy/romance books.  1. Las alas de Sophie , by Alice Kellen ( The Wings of Sophie ) I must put this book on top of the list. I have to. This book is about healing , is about learning to live by yourself without the love of your life, without your partner.

It is lovely to have a person by your side who cares about you, who loves you, who admires you. It is a wonderful and gratifying experience to be love...

  'One True Loves' , by Taylor Jenkins Reid This book is beyond words. It's beyond everything. One True Loves is about finding your true self, about loving yourself as much as you'd love another person. It is about healing . It's so emotional , and the descriptions are so beautifully written— the way the author takes your heart and shatters it in front of you like it were made of glass,... I just can't explain how much this book made me feel. It's a little embarrassing to say that I've cried almost every page of this book? Because I did. One True Loves shows us the importance of yourself, of being yourself only for yourself, not for to please anyone else. Just you. I've felt an instant connection with the main character, Emma Blair . She loves books, and writes. She is strong , but she feels so vulnerable when she has no one to hold on to. I would think it is a flaw: not be able to live without a person. But in this case, she can, even if she thin...
