I really wanted to like The Magnolia Palace. When it comes to the equation of book writing, this book had it all. It has mystery, historical facts/place/people and written well. Yet, something didn’t click for me. The story has two dueling timelines. The 1966 timeline didn’t really add to the story for me. It…

I still feel a little on the fence about this book. Which I decided, is maybe the whole ‘problem’ with this book. It wasn’t bad, not really, but the things that stuck out I couldn’t let go of. Other reviewers pointed out the same, but here we go… Was Selene supposed to scare me? Were…

I normally let myself digest a little before fully diving in to a review, but here I am… less than an hour later sitting down to write this up. First let’s get this out of the way… Peter Pan was never a book I cared much about. It didn’t really capture my attention. The only…

For me, this book didn’t do it for me. Honestly when I picked this book up to read I had no idea there was such a strong ‘feminism’ angle. I mean, the men are bad and women are badass thoughts are literally jammed down the reader’s throats. It’s aggressive and off putting. Sadly, that’s…
