Why Did I Listen To Newt’s Emerald by Garth Nix: I immensely enjoy the writing of Garth Nix. I mean, I’ve read Sabriel and Timetwisters, so it stands to reason that I would likely really enjoy Newt’s Emerald. Plus, the description just really makes it sound like it is RIGHT UP MY ALLEY. Oh and the fact that this […]
Biggest Flirts by Jennifer Echols | Book Review
January 27, 2017
Biggest Flirts by Jennifer Echols is the first in her Superlatives trilogy. If you have not read this book yet, get on it. It’s one of those books that is perfect for winding down after a stressful day or reading on your lunch break. Biggest Flirts is a romantic comedy of sorts. It’s funny and adorable […]

Listen, Slowly | The Real Boy | Connect The Stars
January 13, 2017
Listen, Slowly is the first non-verse book by Thanhha Lai that I have read. I absolutely loved Inside Out And Back Again, so when I saw this available on Edelweiss, I knew I had to read it. Of course, I am the biggest procrastinator, but eventually I got through Listen, Slowly via audiobook. I have to admit […]
