my life production through the pages
I finally read Nearly Found by Elle Cosimano, the follow up to Nearly Gone. Nearly Gone was one of my favorite reads in 2014 when it was released. I remember recommending it as a bookseller. & I was HIGHLY anticipating reading Nearly Found. (By the way, you can check out my review for Nearly Gone on my Goodreads page.) Fast […]
What You Hide by Natalie D. Richards was the first book in a long while that I read in a single day. I loved delving into the relationship between Spencer and Mallory. I didn’t find it as thrilling as I hoped it would be; however, it was still quite the page-turner. What You Hide does touch […]
Maggie Stiefvater’s All the Crooked Saints was very unique. It’s about the miracles the Soria family perform, the pilgrims that come for miracles, and a boy that has come to work for the Soria family in exchange for a box truck. To start off, All the Crooked Saints has the very typical Maggie Stiefvater writing style, which […]
A little over a month ago, the fall season of primetime television started in the US. There were tons of new shows to watch and some returning favorites. (Don’t get me started on the fact that it’s Big Bang Theory’s last season.) Now that I’ve watched some of the new shows, I thought I’d share some […]
I can’t believe it’s November already. That means only two more months until 2019. November brings a lot of holidays and the elections for the United States. I’m ready to see some change in our government, and I’m more than ready to eat lots of pie on Thanksgiving. (Who cares about turkey? Just give me […]

With the holiday season on the way, I think a lot of us are thinking about what to get for our friends, family, coworkers, etc. Well, may I recommend Literary Book […]
**SPOILER ALERT: This review may contain spoilers for Wolf By Wolf, the first book in this duology. Please do not read this review if you do not wish to have any spoilers. Blood for Blood by Ryan Graudin was well crafted. She was able to create a thrilling, fast-paced story despite mixing various points of view […]
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 […]
It’s a new month, and fall is now upon us. We don’t feel the effects of fall much here in Hawaii, but I am very excited for some cooler temperatures. 🙂 My most favorite thing about fall is the start of prime-time tv shows! I’m excited to watch some of my favorites like NCIS, 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 […]
