my life production through the pages
Ryan Graudin’s Wolf By Wolf is a YA historical fiction novel with a very small science fiction-y twist. To be honest, I wasn’t sure I was going to enjoy Wolf by Wolf. I’m not a huge fan of historical fiction, and I really wasn’t sure how the “skinshifter” element was going to play out in the […]
Midnight at the Bright Ideas Bookstore was very different from my regular read, and to be honest, I was very worried I would end up DNF-ing it. Midnight at the Bright Ideas Bookstore, however, pleasantly surprised me with the slow developing mystery it held in its pages. Midnight at the Bright Ideas Bookstore felt more like […]

The Codex Alera series is not my typical read. I don’t really read adult fantasy novels, but it came recommended from a good friend of mine. So I decided to give it a try. The first third/half of Furies of Calderon was a STRUGGLE. It was difficult to get into. There were moments where I […]
Truly Devious has been on my want to read list for months. Once the library told me it was available, I knew I had to read it. Unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to what I had hoped. With mystery novels, I tend to enjoy the books that are more fast paced with a lot of […]
