Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda Reviews

As someone who does not typically like books set in high school, I absolutely adored this book. It is possibly the cutest romance I've ever read. And I think it is mostly because Simon and Blue feel in love with each other without knowing what the other looked like. They 100% loved eac...
?White shouldn't be the default any more than straight should be the default. There shouldn't even be a default.? 4,5/5 stars I read this book exactly two years ago. Since the trailer was released and the film release isn't too far away either, I thought it was time to do a q...

Update 1/15/18: Anyone else hyperventilating over the movie trailer?!! OMG!!!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykHeG... ___________ I LOVED this book. Loved, with no ifs, ands, or buts. I don't often read YA for a few reasons. For one, there is nothing I hate more than silly d...
?People are like houses with vast rooms and tiny windows.? I loved this! No idea why I seem to stay away from contemporaries because all the ones I?ve read this year I?ve loved! Simon was a wonderful character. He is kind, sweet and hilarious! After seeing a post on Tu...
Some of my favorite quotes. :S -?White shouldn't be the default any more than straight should be the default. There shouldn't even be a default.? -?I?m too busy trying not to be in love with someone who isn?t real.? -?It feels like we?re the last survivo...
why is reading this book somehow the most homely feeling in the world? like stars realigning and flowers growing inside you and a thousand suns setting within your very bones? here?s the thing: this was the very first lgbtqia+ book that I've ever read. I was 16 and forever I will ...
Oh okay, you I-told-you-so people. You were right. This book is so much fun that I baked cookies and listened to unfortunate nineties pop music. No, really. And I seriously didn't want to read this. I mean, why would I? I don't particularly like cutesy romances, LGBT or not. The...
Original Review (December 2013): If Becky wasn't a gay teenage boy with good grammar and a foul mouth in several past lives, then she's absolutely one of the most observant writers in the YA game. New Review (June 2017): Just finished my third or fourth reread of SIMON VS., this tim...
This was a great read! Simon is a hilarious character and I loved reading through his perspective. I also liked that the story didn't just end right after the climax and how we got to see what happened past the big moment of the story. ...
in honor of me seeing the movie early and then seeing it again on a cheesy movie date: THE BEST MOMENTS OF THIS BOOK, NEW AND IMPROVED!! ?Simon putting Martin in his phone as ?monkey?s asshole? ?I can?t believe ?mom, pick me up, kids are drinking alcohol? isn?t ...

This. Book. Was. So. Much. FUNNNN. It has been ages since I stayed up late reading a book, propping my eyes open just to keep going. This book had me up at 2AM wanting to find out what would happen to our precious Simon. The family relationships were fantastic, the friendship dynami...

I absolutely loved this book!!! I'm so happy I finally had the motivation to read it. It was exactly as everyone described it; Cute, Fluffy, Healthy, a fast read, an *important* read, etc. I can clearly see why it's such an acclaimed novel for LGBT+ rep in the book community. I'm very ...

READ #2: May 2018 I an't even with how freaking adorable this is. It's been 3 years since I first read it but I just...?I seriously ended up smiling like nothing else for those last chapters. The cute'o'meter is broken, ok. This book BROKE it. It just makes me so happy...but also b...
i wrote about why this book's movie adaptation is better (plz don't revoke my bookworm status) https://emmareadstoomuch.wordpress.co... -------- I DO NOT KNOW HOW I FEEL ABOUT THIS BOOK. AT ALL. And the fact that I am the last person in the mapped universe to have read it is n...
As someone who does not typically like books set in high school, I absolutely adored this book. It is possibly the cutest romance I've ever read. And I think it is mostly because Simon and Blue feel in love with each other without knowing what the other looked like. They 100% loved eac...
?White shouldn't be the default any more than straight should be the default. There shouldn't even be a default.? 4,5/5 stars I read this book exactly two years ago. Since the trailer was released and the film release isn't too far away either, I thought it was time to do a q...
4.5 stars... Maybe 5? I'm going to let things simmer and I'll get back to you on that, but OH YES THIS THIS THIS! Loved. So much. All of the things. ...
OMG THIS BOOOOOOOOOOOK ...
so when does the sequel come out bc i feel like i need 300 more pages of this ...
I love books that appreciate friends. An amazing read, great characters, moving story and a brilliant writing. ...
why is reading this book somehow the most homely feeling in the world? like stars realigning and flowers growing inside you and a thousand suns setting within your very bones? here?s the thing: this was the very first lgbtqia+ book that I've ever read. I was 16 and forever I will ...
Oh okay, you I-told-you-so people. You were right. This book is so much fun that I baked cookies and listened to unfortunate nineties pop music. No, really. And I seriously didn't want to read this. I mean, why would I? I don't particularly like cutesy romances, LGBT or not. The...
Original Review (December 2013): If Becky wasn't a gay teenage boy with good grammar and a foul mouth in several past lives, then she's absolutely one of the most observant writers in the YA game. New Review (June 2017): Just finished my third or fourth reread of SIMON VS., this tim...
This was a great read! Simon is a hilarious character and I loved reading through his perspective. I also liked that the story didn't just end right after the climax and how we got to see what happened past the big moment of the story. ...
in honor of me seeing the movie early and then seeing it again on a cheesy movie date: THE BEST MOMENTS OF THIS BOOK, NEW AND IMPROVED!! ?Simon putting Martin in his phone as ?monkey?s asshole? ?I can?t believe ?mom, pick me up, kids are drinking alcohol? isn?t ...
Read for Popsugar's 2018 Reading Challenge #12: A Book with an LGBTQ+ Protagonist I'm trying to spend more time this year re-reading some of my favorite books, and this was a great start! I actually listened to it on audiobook this time around, and the narration was amazing. No comp...
Awesome. Video review to come. ...
This book was so damn cute and extremely sweet and incredibly adorable! XD It tasted like a hot cup of coffee in early spring, it felt like warm summer rain caressing your skin, it was as beautiful as a colourful sunrise in September and it smelled like a clear night sky in the...
4.3/5 Stars ? ? ? ? ?Why is straight the default? Everyone should have to declare one way or another, and it shouldn't be this big awkward thing whether you're straight, gay, bi, or whatever. I'm just saying.? Look, this book started very slow for me. And I was very ve...
This. Book. Was. So. Much. FUNNNN. It has been ages since I stayed up late reading a book, propping my eyes open just to keep going. This book had me up at 2AM wanting to find out what would happen to our precious Simon. The family relationships were fantastic, the friendship dynami...

Update 1/15/18: Anyone else hyperventilating over the movie trailer?!! OMG!!!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykHeG... ___________ I LOVED this book. Loved, with no ifs, ands, or buts. I don't often read YA for a few reasons. For one, there is nothing I hate more than silly d...
?People are like houses with vast rooms and tiny windows.? I loved this! No idea why I seem to stay away from contemporaries because all the ones I?ve read this year I?ve loved! Simon was a wonderful character. He is kind, sweet and hilarious! After seeing a post on Tu...
Some of my favorite quotes. :S -?White shouldn't be the default any more than straight should be the default. There shouldn't even be a default.? -?I?m too busy trying not to be in love with someone who isn?t real.? -?It feels like we?re the last survivo...
Audiobook Reread (2018): Not much to add. Loved this just as much the third time around! Still warmed my heart. The audio narration was really great for Simon, my only gripe is that the narrator read all the female characters in the same unamused sounding voice which usually didn't fi...
I?ve been putting off writing this review for months because I don?t want to piss anyone off. I really just need to get this out in the open though, before the movie comes out because I know I?ll love the movie and I really don?t want it skewing my opinion of the book. Simo...
