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 […]
Book Review: Beauty Queens by Libba Bray
June 6, 2011
I feel like my thoughts on feminism are perfectly summed up in Beauty Queens by Libba Bray. Now I won’t have to explain my views, but just hand people Libba Bray’s book instead.

The Last Sacrifice is the final installment and it makes me sad to see these characters go. I mean, I guess […]
