When the city’s fate rests in the hands of enemies: Parts 2 & 3

The Nameless City V02 The Stone Heart by Faith Erin Hicks

The Nameless City V03 The Divided Earth by Faith Erin Hicks

by Leave a Comment

The Nameless City is a trilogy that (if you are like me) should probably be read back-to-back. I was lucky and able to read all three with little break between one and two (and two and three the same day). Yet, a few things I had to backtrack and try to remember, “Okay who are you again?” or “What did you do?” However, the reader aged 10 to 14 should have no difficultly remembering everything. And thankfully, all three are out so regardless they can […]

Scouts in Spaaaaace!!!!!!!

The Star Scouts by Mike Lawrence

Star Scouts: The League of Lasers by Mike Lawrence

by Leave a Comment

I am halfway through volume two of The Star Scouts by Mike Lawrence and thinking I need to purchase book three to donate to the library after reading. Because if kids out there are like me, they are going to want to know what happens to Avani, Mable, Jen, Pam and the rest of the Star Scouts. This graphic novel is great for aged 8-10 or a low 11-12-year-old. There is the typical trying to fit in story and cannot. There is then the finding […]

Tiny Feet Between the Mountains by Hanna Cha

by Leave a Comment

A former coworker and a good kid (I have known them since they were a customer of about 7-years-old) told me about their friends’ book, Tiny Feet Between the Mountains. My friend said that Hanna Cha was also a good person and they really liked the book. I love a good recommendation and found a copy. My first thought was that it has some very lovely illustrations. The cover alone was worth the price of admission. Then, there is a sweet, modern story about being […]

Eating By Yourself Can Be Cool

Solo: A Modern Cookbook for a Party of One by Anita Lo

by Leave a Comment

I would really like to meet Anita Lo some day. I’ve seen her on a few competition cooking shows, but this is the first cookbook of hers I’ve gone and picked up. Solo: A Modern Cookbook for a Party of One is pretty unique in that it not only focuses on small batch recipes as well as how to use as much of certain ingredients as possible (sometimes saving for another day or recipe), but also is very direct about eating by oneself. I’ve seen […]
