I’m not sure quite how to classify You Have to Kiss a Lot of Frogs. It reads like a memoir but I think it might be fiction. Either way, it’s an interesting look at dating adventures. The novel opens with our narrator Karrie Klein attending yet another bridal shower for yet another friend, enduring the questions about when it will be her turn to get married. She doesn’t normally worry about her perpetually single status, but she’s 45, her acting prospects are drying up, her […]
Sing me a lullaby
I follow John Green on Facebook and a few months ago, he posted about Sarah Dessen’s new novel (the name of which escapes me at the moment), and I figured that since I harbor a) a secret love for YA fiction and b) a secret love for John Green, I’d give her a whirl and downloaded This Lullaby, which was what was available from Overdrive. And it was… okay, I guess? The story follows eighteen year old Remy during that magical time between high school […]
This book would make V.C. Andrews blush…
I’m woefully behind in my reviews, and so I’ve had some time and space apart from this novel, and I have to tell you, I still don’t know what to think. I can’t tell if I loved it for all of its gothic-ness, or I hated it for all of its horrible characters. So I’m giving it three stars, because that feels like a solidly middle-of-the-pack recommendation, but if you pick this up, know going in to it that you might get to the end […]
I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance
I wasn’t sure if I was really enjoying this novel until about halfway through, when I realized I didn’t want to stop reading it until it was over. And then when it WAS over, I almost started reading it all over again. That’s the second book this year that has brought about this reaction. The first was Uprooted, and honestly, I’m happy enough to experience that feeling just once a year, so I feel sort of selfish for getting to enjoy it twice. Anyway! On […]
Trying to Find Love While Running a Country is Almost Impossible, but Eady will Manage.
Rating: 5/5 Summary: Eadlyn is continuing on with her selection after her mother’s heart attack, Ahren leaving her a harsh though true note and eloping. Her father can’t sleep or do anything besides watch America, so it is up to Eadlyn to be the acting Regent as well as finish her Selection. However, she may have more allies than she realizes. I love Kiera Cass way too much!! Her writing is so wonderful and every time I’m sucked into the beautiful world she’s created. The […]
Not as entertaining as her historical novels
3.5 stars Actor John Tennessee McCord was the star of a long-running TV show, but recently, his career has taken a bit of a dive. Having been one half of a big Hollywood power couple and then being rather publically dumped last year certainly hasn’t helped. Now he’s got a new TV series lined up about the California gold rush and while scouting out the locations for it, his pickup truck breaks down in Hellcat Canyon. Not that he minds all that much, as the […]
