The Light in the Ruins by Chris Bohjalian

February 7, 2021 by andtheIToldYouSos Leave a Comment

Way back in the olden days of 2020, the amazing crystalclear sent some inspired picks my way for CBR Book Exchange. Hooray! I kicked off the new year with one of their thoughtful additions to my TBR pile; I had wanted to read Storm Front for some time thanks to the lovely folks here at CBR. The other book, The Light in the Ruins, was a book with which I was unfamiliar. I was immediately excited and impressed after reading the cover copy, as I […]

Thank You So Much, crystalclear!!!!

December 12, 2020 by andtheIToldYouSos 2 Comments

I am so excited!!!! The wonderful crystalclear hooked me up with my two greatest weaknesses: series and CANDY! I’m going to start Storm Front right after I post this message, The Light in the Ruins looks RIGHT up my alley (were you in my brain?), and I am going to hide the treats before Rufus takes them- right now he is VERY interested in the VERY COOL 3D card! Thank you for a wonderful first Book Exchange, and I’ll be wearing those socks at the party today!

Thank you, crystalclear!!!

December 10, 2019 by Bothari43 1 Comment

My book exchange buddy got me two things I’ve never heard of, but I’m so excited to add them to my TBR list! Thank you so much, crystalclear! I can’t wait to investigate this story of haunted palaces and lesbian necromancers (Gideon the Ninth, Tamsyn Muir), and super-students on their first mission (Aurora Rising, Amie Kaufman). Looking forward to them both!

Adorable and Full of Meaning

July 22, 2017 by faintingviolet Leave a Comment

When crystalclear reviewed Lobster is the Best Medicine, she suggested passing along this book about friendship to your friends. I am lucky enough to call her friend – and I am the same friend who moved recently and had the naked refrigerator in need of fun Liz Climo magnets – so when she was over my house the other night she handed me this book and I immediately blew through it. Reviewing this one is a bit tough, as it is very straightforward in its […]
