I’ll admit, my weakness is celebrities. By now, you guys should know that I really just love reading celebrity memoirs. I love the nitty gritty gossip. I do not even care what you think about my penchant for curling up with a tell all, judge away reader friends, judge away. So, when I first encountered Famous […]
Ketchup Clouds by Annabel Pitcher | Book Review
October 15, 2015
I do not read enough international young adult books, I swear. Ketchup Clouds by Annabel Pitcher is a British young adult contemporary book about a girl named Zoe.

September 18, 2015
PRAISE HANDS FOR JULIE MURPHY. All of the emoji praise hands for Julie Murphy. For serious I want to just throw a ticker tape parade for her latest book, Dumplin’. I want to press it into the hands of anyone who has ever been made to feel bad about how they look. I want to press […]
