Grief and Hope – the human experience

How High We Go in the Dark by Sequoia Nagamatsu

September 2, 2022 by Mobius_Walker Leave a Comment

BINGO - New This is going to be a difficult book to summarize because I would not consider it a novel. It's closer to a collection of short stories, but that's not quite right either. It's something in between. There's a long form improv format in which the audience sees a scene with Person A and … [Read more]

I’m a kid of the 1980s and still a fan of good Saturday morning cartoons. One of those was The Transformers (okay good might be a loosely used term, but I stand by it) and sure, I was a little into My Little Ponies, but not like my younger sister (who btw is mom to a nephew I will mention in a bit, … [Read more]

Before I Do

Before I Do by Sophie Cousens

September 2, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. So funny enough I could have used this for a Cannonball 14 bingo because of the constant discussion of stars, who knew. But seriously though. This is the third book by Cousens I have read and they just … [Read more]
