The Thursday Murder Club (Thursday Murder Club #1) by Richard Osman

by Leave a Comment

Thursday Murder Club is a perfectly suitable novel for someone looking for a fast read that's funny enough. I picked it up from the new paperback release display at a local bookshop on a lark. It's a title that's been read by a few people I know or mentioned in some "currently reading" or "recently … [Read more]

I cannot recommend this book highly enough. I had such a good time with it.

Bitch: On the Female of the Species by Lucy Cooke

by 2 Comments

I haven't written it yet, but I'm fairly certain this review will mostly be made up of quotes. That's the reason I have been letting it hold up my review queue, because I haven't had enough spoons to sit down and go through all my tabs [see below for picture] for my favorite bits, and then organize … [Read more]

Suit up

Mama’s Sleeping Scarf by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and Nwa Grace-James

Patchwork Prince by Baptiste Paul

by Leave a Comment

Sometimes the smallest thing, like a piece of cloth can do big things. And these two books have that theme in common. I do not know about you, but my mother had a couple items of clothing that I associated with her. Now, I didn’t use one of them to feel closer to her when she would leave, but I … [Read more]

Walking through the apocalypse

Rain by Joe Hill

by Leave a Comment

CBR15Passport,  Illustrator lives in UK I did not rate Rain a five because it was the best, but because it really hit me in the right feels. Plus, there are some amazing alternative images at the end.  It is probably a 4.5 but I was feeling generous as this is an experience book that had I been … [Read more]

You don’t sail a thousand ships, you pulverize them

Possession by Adriana Anders

by Leave a Comment

I don't know why I love marriage in trouble stories so much, but I do. Possession, a fake marriage in real trouble, is a nice twist on the trope. Possession is a book that I probably wouldn't have read from a different author, but Anders takes all the elements that usually make me wary and deals … [Read more]
