Just in time for the new year, a review about a decluttering book! I’ll admit that when Marie Kondo first became a sensation, I was pretty skeptical. I tried to read her book but it was one of those that I ended up skimming over, going “meh this isn’t for me” and then returning it […]
The Child Thief by Brom has been on my reading list for a good long time, as has been The Devil’s Rose and Krampus: The Yule Lord. I figured that now that I’m done with the 2019 POPSUGAR Reading Challenge, I’d sit down and work on a few other books that have been on my […]
I read Nightlights by Lorena Alvarez Gomez earlier this year and fell in love with it. I loved the story, but I especially loved her artwork. Naturally, when I saw that Nightlights had a sequel, I had to go pick up Hicotea. I think I liked this one even more than the first, and Lorena’s […]
I had such mixed feelings about this book. I think my favorite thing about it was that the front cover sets you up for a little of what you would expect. As I was reading, I had a lot of flashbacks to my own childhood. Not that my parents were strict, and I’m only 1/8th […]
This was a fun, entertaining read. It reminded me a lot of a comic book, with the crazy action scenes, plot twists, clichés and pop-culture references, and I enjoyed Kimrean. I often wondered how on earth Kimrean could function, though, as both A and Z are so vastly different, it really was like having two […]
So it’s been a long time since I did a book review here, but books are one of my many passions so I decided I’d start reviewing again with a book that is about the pursuit of happiness. I found myself really enjoying this book. I liked that the author could be honest with herself […]
I feel like I need to tell you that Sleeping Beauties was my very first novel by Stephen King. I’m familiar with some of his others from watching the movies associated with them. It, Christine, The Green Mile, etcetera, but I had never actually sat down to read one of his books until this one. […]
Before We Were Yours was a book that I wasn’t sure I would enjoy when I picked it up. I love historical fiction, but the time period wasn’t something I found fascinating before. The novel is about a family torn apart by Georgia Tann the Tennessee Children’s Home Society, and the conditions that the children […]
I would have to say that this book is one of my favorites that I’ve read lately. I was familiar with Shakespeare’s Tempest, and it’s actually one of my favorites of his plays. Miranda and Caliban is a retelling of The Tempest, and in my opinion excellently done. I loved how much detail was put […]
Happy New Year, everyone! Let’s make it awesome! This book was my first brush with Mr. Estleman’s writing, and it grabbed me by title alone when I saw it on the new release list and only got better as the book went on. You can imagine my surprise and delight when I did a bit […]
