30 Books in 30 Days, Vol. 2 Book 25/30 I spent most of this book angry with Raphael, and I don't think the book (or Raphael) did enough groveling to get me back to liking him the same way I did before, though Andrea doesn't seem to be having that issue by the end. I just really wanted him to … [Read more]

“We were so happy.”

What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty

30 Books in 30 Days, Vol. 2 Book 24/30 This one was a long time coming. I've owned it for years, and recommended it to a handful of friends, most of whom were confused why I was recommending a book to them I hadn't read, but I know about books even if I haven't read them! And they liked it! … [Read more]

Warriors: Winds of Change by Erin Hunter

by Leave a Comment

Warriors: Winds of Change is an enjoyable graphic novel story. Even though, it can be a standalone title, I probably needed to have a little more background about the Warriors series and their world to understand some of the backstory of where the characters are from. There are several points about … [Read more]

I might pick on the frogs in this review but there is an elephant too

It's Tough to Be Tiny by Kim Woolcock

What if I told you that being small was not as bad as it might seem? In fact, it can be cool. Oh sure, we vertically challenged people might not be able to reach the average height shelf in the store and have to smile nicely to the tall gentleman for assistance, but if you were some of the animals … [Read more]

“By making me a bitch, you have freed me from the trite, sexist, bourgeois prison of ‘likability.’ Any idiot can be liked. It takes talent to scare the crap out of people.’

Confessions of a Prairie Bitch by Alison Arngrim

30 Books in 30 Days, Vol. 2 Book 23/30 This was great. I'm not normally a fan of celebrity memoirs, because in my experience the books are often being written just because the celebrity wants to write a book, and there's no literary reason for the book to exist. I don't mean that in a snobby … [Read more]

“I guess that’s the world we live in today. A world where accusations sway opinion. A world where evidence doesn’t matter.”

The Night Swim by Megan Goldin

30 Books in 30 Days, Vol. 2 Book 22/30 This was really good, but I was able to connect the dots easier than I think the author wanted me to. If twists were all this book had going for it, I wouldn't have liked it, but other elements were just as important if not more. In fact, I'd rather have a … [Read more]
