December 12, 2016 by · 2 Comments
"Ordinary men commit extraordinary evil all the time." EVERYTHING YOU WANT ME TO BE is in all sense of the word a page-turner. I couldn't put this book down. If it wasn't for work and personal obligations, I would have read this book from start to finish without eating. ...
Book Review – Beautiful by Christina Lauren

BEAUTIFUL was such a fun send off to the whole Beautiful series gang. My absolute favorite couple, Hanna and Will, were prominent characters in this one and I just had a blast reading (and later listening) to Beautiful from beginning to end. Jensen and Pippa are the two ...

Audiobook Review – A Shadow Bright and Burning by Jessica Cluess
October 31, 2016 by · 4 Comments
Set in London during the Victorian era, A SHADOW BRIGHT AND BURNING is a decent beginning to Jessica Cluess's Kingdom on Fire series. While the characters and plot are both rather generic, the darker setting and bits of action pulled me in. Henrietta is thought to be the ...

October 30, 2016 by · Leave a Comment
OUR HEARTS WILL BURN US DOWN is a poignant portrait of grief, told in the collective voice through the eyes of four best friends after a mass school shooting. While the story was not poorly written, the writing style was distracting at times, the novel was lacking in ...
