Maximizing the Fun while Minimizing the Waits

Unofficial Guide to Disneyland 2023 by Seth Kubersky

November 20, 2022 by The Chancellor Leave a Comment

Unofficial Guide to Disneyland 2023 by Seth Kubersky My rating: 5 of 5 stars It’s been almost a year since I was last at Disneyland, but my first time planning a solo trip. I had a work conference in Anaheim and decided to tack on some personal days and visit Disney. In preparation for a recent trip to the happiest place on earth, I turned to this guide to help me prepare and ready myself for what to expect. I decided ahead of time that […]

Good Advice for Surviving Theme Parks, especially in the Summer

The Unofficial Guide to Universal Orlando 2022 by Seth Kubersky

November 20, 2022 by The Chancellor Leave a Comment

The Unofficial Guide to Universal Orlando 2022 by Seth Kubersky My rating: 5 of 5 stars Just like in 2018, when I read my first “Unofficial Guide to Universal Orlando Resort,” I found the advice, information, and research to be immensely helpful for having a great vacation. I recently returned from UOR, shamefully having not completed my reading of the book before hand, and can say that without the touring plans and accompanying app, we wouldn’t have had such a good time. For the first […]

The Swamp Will Eat You

Swamplandia! by Karen Russell

September 24, 2021 by Ale Leave a Comment

Since reading Russell’s short story collection, I’ve had her novel on my to-read. As always, bingo is a great time to knock a bunch of books off the TBR pile, so I finally made space for Swamplandia!. Sadly, I was underwhelmed. Russell’s writing is beautiful and there’s a ton of descriptive gems throughout the story, but plot wise, this book felt all over the place. Swamplandia! is an alligator themed adventure park run by the Bigtree family where they wrestle alligators and do stunts above the gator […]

Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus by Dusti Bowling

March 7, 2019 by cosbrarian Leave a Comment

(Title quote is from Bertolt Brecht’s Mother Courage) Aven Green has a pretty great life as a middle schooler in Kansas.  She plays on the soccer team, has a wonderful group of friends, is a creative writer, and plays the guitar. She also has no arms. She was born without them, though if anyone asks about it (and boy do they), she always has a wild tale to tell them about where they went and how. But her life is about to be upended: her […]

  • narfna on Cannonballing with an excellent but very intense mystery/thriller.Thanks! And yes, this is not a Malin book. It's very very good but I think your parental instincts would give you some trouble.
  • narfna on Cannonballing with an excellent but very intense mystery/thriller.I still love that book! This one is just as well written but different aims, I think.
