I actually genuinely loved Girl In The Blue Coat by Monica Hesse. A quick glance over at goodreads shows that it got mixed reviews. I am the black sheep on this, but it really spoke to me. It also definitely had me craving some more historical fiction in my life. I should mention that I listened […]
What Light by Jay Asher | Book Review
December 14, 2016
Bless the library for having my hold of What Light by Jay Asher to me at exactly the right time. I’ll admit to being initially annoyed when out of nowhere, my hold was cancelled.

The Reader by Traci Chee | Book Review
July 12, 2016
