Lost my youngest sister to leukemia several years ago. Reading interests lean hard toward sci/fi & fantasy, a lil' bit of mystery, and occasionally romance.

Disclaimer: I think this will be the third time I have attempted participating in the Cannonball Read. My failures in the past are so frustrating to me because I easily read at least 50 books each year. It’s the reviews that are my stumbling block. I know it’s because I am intimidated, both by the intelligence of the Pajiba community and by my minimal skills with technology. This year, I’m trying to let that anxiety go. If my reviews sound like they were written by […]

Mexican Gothic

Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia

by 1 Comment

In one of my earlier reviews, I was disappointed in a book that I expected to be scary but it was decidedly not. Turns out, Mexican Gothic was almost exactly what I was looking for back then: not scary, absolutely not gory (thank goodness), but a hovering sense of dread throughout the entire novel. Put it in my veins! Noemí Taboada is young, glamourous, and carefree. She is a wealthy debutante who is exploring what she wants to do with her future. Her family receives […]

The Sky Is Yours by Chandler Klang Smith

The Sky Is Yours by Chandler Klang Smith

A review in which my book-does-not-meet-expectations streak unfortunately continues… While wasting time online at work one day, I found a list of recommended funny novels and then a list of funny novels written by women. I can’t remember which list this novel was on, but let’s just say the list maker and I apparently do not have the same sense of humor. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed The Sky Is Yours, I just did not find it funny, like, at all. Duncan Ripple is […]
