Review of “The Dead Romantics by Ashley Poston
What a unique plot. I do not usually read books like this. I am not a supernatural fan. I picked it up because it was more in-depth than just seeing ghosts. This book dealt with topics about family, grief, love, and moving forward. I really enjoyed reading it. I really liked the characters in the Read more

Review of “Once There Were Wolves” by Charlotte McConaghy

Review of “The Lioness” by Chris Bohjalian
I really liked the unique plot. I will never read something like this again! It is also a unique setting. It is set in Africa (Serengeti) in the 1960s. In this novel, the land, animals, and people can kill you. I would classify this novel as a Historical fiction thriller. I thought at first that Read more

Review “This Time Tomorrow” by Emma Straub
I really enjoyed the plot. It was very unique. It was also beautifully written. I love time travel books too! This time travel was more like 13 Going on 30 than Back to the Future (if you get my drift). She is 40 years old and wakes up being 16 years old again. But her Read more
Review “Yes Please” by Amy Poehler
This book is funny. I think that is the part that I liked the most. It was not the honest and raw book that I was expecting. Although, she does discuss a skit that she felt bad about on SNL. She issued an apology for it. But for the most part, this is not the Read more
