Books and reading have always been an important part of my life. When I was very young, my grandma was the library director at our local public library. Years later, after she had retired, I became a librarian at the same library and worked there for several years before taking a part-time job at a local coffee shop, which gives me more time to do what I love, to read and to review books! A few of my favorite authors are Aimee Bender, Diane Chamberlain, and Curtis Sittenfeld however, I will read almost any book I come across! In my spare time you can find me reading (of course), volunteering at a wildlife animal rehab, or hanging out with my three house rabbits.
I have heard other people who read this book referring to it as a book they don't know how to categorize. I, too, felt that way when I was finished. Not really dystopian, historical fiction,…

Having thoroughly enjoyed Rachel Joyce' previous novel The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, I was anxious to read her new book. I could hardly put it down, it was so enthralling. The characters…
When I first started reading this book, I was wondering how exactly all the characters would be connected. Ira and Ruth; Luke and Sophia...two couples who have important stories to tell, but why are w…
Imagine being a young girl who's brightest spot in the day is finding a dollar, or getting to play a favorite song on the jukebox at the bar where your mother works...this is the life of Rory Hendrix.…
Flavia De Luce is a spunky young girl who has a nose for mystery and shenanigans. She has starred in several previous novels by Alan Bradley, and I would highly recommend reading those if you haven't …
Having never read a book by Jhumpa Lahiri, I had no idea what I would be in for when I started reading her newest novel. I had heard a lot of high-praise for it, but kept putting off dedicating time t…
Having been a very imaginative child that was obsessed with dolls, this book jumped out at me when I read the synopsis. I'm not really into ghosts and the paranormal, but I figured I could deal with a…
Lucile (Lottie) Garrett has a tough life. Motherless, and now homeless, she and her father live in the West in the 1930's--a tough time period for anyone to live through, but especially rough for…
