Let me start by saying, I read this via audio book. Although I loved the speaker, I felt I was missing something by not holding a used paperback book while reading. That feeling, the pages, the smell were lost and I really believe it would have added to the reading experience. Now – big…

Kristin Hannah went viral with her latest books, for the past few YEARS, being great after great. So obviously she caught a lot of people’s attention… mine as well. So time to go through Hannah’s back catalogue. What’s interesting is I saw this book, Angel Falls, on an end cap in Target and thought it was…

This was a cute story – felt short and read through the book quickly. I feel like I’ve read a version of this story a few different times, a few different ways, so when it comes to the plot… it didnt feel special. It was very predictable. The story itself is 3 stars. It’s ‘too’ short. The…

I read this entire book on my day off – not because it was ‘that’ good, but because I wanted to. Take what you want from that sentence and let’s continue on with the review. This book was easy reading. It switched back and forth from past (56 days ago.. but sometimes.. 67 days ago!)…

A cute ‘how to’ parent book. Although I don’t have kids, I appreciated the advice Bitz gives. To summarize, it feels like he is telling parents to be chill but adventurous. I loved it. Very sensible advice. Great ideas of how to get out there, that doesn’t involve sticking an iPad in front of your kid’s face. …

Into the Wild the book is a lengthy expose on the article that the author wrote earlier. The article was just the tip of the iceberg for Krakauer and I believe he got obsessed and couldn’t stop with just the article. He’s expanded on his thoughts, other’s stories and some clarifications he wanted to make since the article,…

Coben was an author that I got me into obsessive, read-in-one-day, speed reading thrills. This book was no exception. It has been awhile since I had picked up one of his books and I’m sorry for that. Right from the start we dive into characters and the plot – there is no time to slowly…

This was an interesting one for me. I didn’t hate it. It had all the pieces of a great puzzle, more importantly, all the pieces of a great thriller. There were twists, surprises and it came together in a pretty little bow at the end. This is a solid 3.5 to 4 star book. I believe most…

This was an interesting one for me. It was different – which is great. I don’t feel there are many books like this – so first of all, congrats to the author for finding a place to be original. The book itself felt real. The whole thing felt like it was something that could happen in…

I’ll admit, when I finished this book it was a solid 3 stars for me. I didn’t understand what was ‘so great’ about this VERY famous book. After letting it marinate in my brain for awhile… I realized it WAS marinating. It was sticking with me. That alone, says something. This was a very intriguing…
