Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock by Matthew Quick is one hell of a book. I read Quick’s latest young adult book on my iPhone in the span of two days. I legit could not put my phone down for a second, it was so good. In fact, at one juncture, when the book slashed my heart […]
Transparent | Natalie Whipple | Audiobook Review
June 14, 2013
WHY’D I CHOOSE TO LISTEN TO TRANSPARENT by Natalie Whipple?

When Zebra Forest by Adina Rishe Gewirtz popped up on my radar, I knew I had to read this middle grade debut. First of all, […]
