My husband Jason and I are wonder twin cancer survivors! Sadly, all the radiation did not make us bionic...yet. I've done two quarter Cannonballs successfully now, and this year I'm going for a half.

The Charmed Wife by Olga Grushin

by Leave a Comment

CBR Square: Cityscape. Shoutout to the folks who put together the CBR Bingo, because I was wondering where to fit this book, then I looked at the paperback cover and realized it has a cityscape in a shoe outline. I liked this book more than the last Cannonball Reviewer, but it did drag in several placed for me. The Charmed Wife is a retelling of Cinderella, where she’s been married to her Prince for 13.5 years and he’s a cheating horndog. This is hammered home […]

One Life

One Life by Megan Rapinoe

by Leave a Comment

Megan Rapinoe has lived an amazing life, and she documents it in a way that it feels like she’s having a conversation with you in her autobiography, One Life. The book goes through her childhood, learning to play soccer, going to college, making the US Women’s Junior and then National teams, and then kicking butt and winning the World Cup.

But Bea is sick and tired of the lack of body diversity on the show. Since when is being a size zero a prerequisite for […]

Upright Women Wanted by Sarah Gailey

by 1 Comment

I listened to Sarah Gailey’s Magic for Liars last year and enjoyed it, but this was even better. Upright Women Wanted is set in a Wild West style world from the future, where a continuous war has torn the country apart and men dominate society. Information, the tool we use to grow and learn and resist, is tightly controlled with approved materials from the Librarians. The goal for this society is to keep people uneducated and very carefully educated. At the start of the story, […]

A sweet romance with a slow build

Ayesha at Last by Uzma Jalaluddin

by Leave a Comment

CBR Square- Violet Ayesha At Last is a modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice set in a Muslim community in Toronto. Ayesha is a teacher but wants to be a poet and travel the world, and Khalid is a more conservative Muslim who wants his mother to arrange his marriage. It is a story about the experiences of immigrants, traditions competing with modern society, and a hero who learns that he can keep his identity and the things that he feels are important while also […]
