  • 11/22/63 By: Stephen King

    11/22/63 By: Stephen King

    If you could go back in time and change one thing, what would it be? Does the date 11/22/63 mean anything to you? For a lot of Americans this was unfathomable and set up a series of reactions. Jake, our main character, sets off to change time. Wow, obviously I’m in the minority here. I’ve…

  • Famous Last Words By: Gillian McAllister

    Famous Last Words By: Gillian McAllister

    If the police told you your significant other has taken hostages in a warehouse, would you believe them? I read two McAllister books back to back … first one 5 stars all the way. This one, although absolutely excellent, was a bit predictable. Which is really my only criticism with this book. The predictability. Even…

  • Being Henry: The Fonz . . . and Beyond By: Henry Winkler

    Being Henry: The Fonz . . . and Beyond By: Henry Winkler

    Henry Winkler, or better known as “the Fonz” from the TV show Happy Days, wrote a memoir. Horrible intro, I know. What can I say though? It’s a memoir. I wasn’t a HUGE Happy Day fan, but I did watch it and I knew (and mimicked) the beloved character of ‘The Fonz’ most of my life.…

  • The Peculiar Garden of Harriet Hunt By: Chelsea Iversen

    The Peculiar Garden of Harriet Hunt By: Chelsea Iversen

    Harriet Hunt is in a pickle … her father is gone, his debtors are knocking on her door and her garden is out of control. A story that covers grief, loneliness and finding your way in life. My first note I made about this book was ‘the writing is very flowery, which makes sense as…
