Retro Friday Reviews is a feature/meme hosted by Angie of Angieville. Basically you review an older book on Fridays. When I think of authors from my childhood, many names come to mind. At the forefront is Roald Dahl. I’m sure many of you did that thing where when you find one author who is awesome […]

Book Review: Blood Red Road by Moira Young I didn’t instantly click with Blood Red Road by Moira Young. I was initially put off by the writing style as it’s written in dialect. Yet the early buzz reviews said Blood Red Road is awesome. You know, I am SO glad I stuck with it, because […]
