Review of “Channel Kindness” by Born This Way Foundation Reporters with Lady Gaga
I am giving this book a 4.5 star review. I just loved it! This book is exactly what I needed. My motto has always been “Be Kind.” To read such inspirational stories really lifted me out of the COVID-19 and political mayhem that we are currently in with 2020. This book has 51+ stories about […]
Review of “Radium Girls: The Dark Story of America’s Shining Women” by Kate Moore
I am giving this book a 3.5 to 4 star review. This book was very interesting. I rarely pick up a non-fiction book. But I really enjoyed this one. Not for the writing, but more for the knowledge about what happened to these women. It is about the heartbreaking story of the dial painting “girls.” […]
Review on “Our Planet” by Alastair Fothergill, Keith Scholey, Fred Pearce, and David Attenborough
I am giving this book a 4.5 star review. It was full of interesting facts and pictures about our planet. If you watched the Netflix documentary, then this follows with that. But you do not have to have watched it to read and enjoy the novel. This is a non-fiction book that discusses nature and […]
Review of “Parkland” by Dave Cullen
I am rating this novel a 3.5 star review. This non-fiction novel centers around the survivors of the Parkland shooting and the founders of the March for Our Lives movement. The story examines the student led protests that followed the shooting against gun violence. After reading Dave Cullen’s other novel called “Columbine,” I was expecting […]
Review: “Columbine” by Dave Cullen
I am giving this novel a 5 star review. I could not put it down. This novel was interesting, intriguing, and scary. I sadly remember this tragedy and was in high school. It was scary then and still is today. This story is unforgettable and heartbreaking at the same time but also hopeful. It is […]
Review of “Born A Crime” by Trevor Noah
I am giving this novel a 4.5 rating but rounded up to a 5 towards the end of the novel! I am going to start with how much I hate memoirs. But this was not your typical memoir luckily. It was full of wild stories from Trevor growing up in South Africa. It had laughs, […]
“Great American Trivia” book
No review needed. I just read a book called “Great American Trivia.” It had a lot of interesting facts! I read it in two days! It was very well written as well. I found myself impressing my husband and family with interesting facts from this book! I was lucky enough to be looking at a […]
Review of “The Book of Gutsy Women: Favorite Stories of Courage and Resilience” by Hillary and Chelsea Clinton
I am giving this book a 3.5 star review for the novel “The Book of Gutsy Women: Favorite Stories of Courage and Resilience” by Hillary Clinton and Chelsea Clinton. I loved the biographies of all the “Gutsy” women in this book. The history was fascinating. I even found myself reading some of them over again. […]
“In Cold Blood” by Truman Capote
I give Truman Capote a lot of credit. Truman Capote’s writing style is stellar. The characterization in the novel was overly descriptive. The scenes were vivid. The story played out like a fiction novel. He created a new genre of literature. His true crime novel “In Cold Blood” is a truly a classic. “In Cold […]
