Let me preface this by saying I love David Sedaris so much, I cannot read him in public. If you didn’t already know, Sedaris writes memoirs, and his memoirs are hilarious anecdotes about his life. Whenever I flipped the page when reading Me Talk Pretty One Day, I would double over in laughter. The effect […]
Review of Bunnicula by Deborah and James Howe
October 31, 2009
Seriously, why would you want to read about a vampire stalker when you can read about a vampire bunny?

Review of The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong
October 21, 2009
It’s a bit strange, but when I see The Awakening as a title, I always think of Kate Chopin. However, Kelly Armstrong’s book entitled The Awakening has nothing to do with Chopin. It is a continuation of the most excellent novel, The Summoning. Chloe is back, along with AHH -GUSH- Derek! The What The F-ery […]
