Book Review – Shark Bait by Jenn Cooksey

Book Review: I didn't read the synopsis for this one.  I went in blind, having no idea what this book was about.  And from page one, I was drowning in pure unadulterated awesomesauce.  Shark Bait is so hilarious.  This is her debut and I am so impressed. After being ...

Book Review – Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell

Book Review – Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell

Book Review: If I could use one word to describe this story, it would be "adorable".  Eleanor and Park fell in love on the bus listening to '80's music and reading comic books.  Can it get any cuter than that?  I submit that it cannot!  Told in alternating points-of-view, ...
