  • IT ENDS WITH US BY COLLEEN HOOVER

    Let me start out by being honest here, I picked this book up only because it went ‘viral’, otherwise this book wouldn’t be something that would catch my eye. This is my first Hoover book and I’m still on the fence if it will be my last.     In the beginning of the book, I struggled to…

  • DARLING GIRL: A NOVEL OF PETER PAN BY LIZ MICHALSKI

    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…

  • THE CHANGE BY KIRSTEN MILLER

    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…

  • A LITTLE LIFE BY HANYA YANAGIHARA

    This book was a head spinner – if you can’t agree with anything, you gotta agree with that.     I mean, I’m still so ‘WOW’ about the whole thing.     First off, let’s get this out of the way. The length. This book is long and honestly, unnecessarily long. I think most of my comments come from the…

  • The House Across the Lake By: Riley Sager

    I’m giving this book 3 stars, but that is me being really nice. Huge Sager fan and I’m honestly baffled. This just simply isn’t that good. I think a good group of us readers are heartbroken as we really, really want to like anything Sager puts out.       What’s wrong with the book? Well, the first…

  • WE WERE NEVER HERE BY ANDREA BARTZ

    As a Milwaukee native, this book hit harder than most. I think it was my favorite thing about the book… the setting. Whenever the author mentioned locations, I went ‘I know that!’. Yet, it was sad that she didn’t describe it enough. Someone living elsewhere isn’t going to know what the Fifth Ward is or Bayview or…

  • THE LAST HOUSE ON NEEDLESS STREET BY CATRIONA WARD

    I’m still sitting here wondering what the heck I just read. It made a bit more sense once I read the author’s note. The note does warn you on the upcoming spoilers so I’ll tip toe around the “spoilers” as well to avoid ruining the critical twist in the book.     After reading the author’s note everything makes…
