May 14, 2018 by Erin Leave a Comment

Books We Adore: One of Us Is Lying

Today is the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., so we wanted to share a review not of a Civil Rights-era historical novel, but a novel that explores many of the issues still facing the African-American community, and therefore should be of importance to all Americans. –Sandie Shhhh. Don’t tell…

Books We Adore: To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before Trilogy

The To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before books are the first Jenny Han books I’ve read, and I have to admit I’m in love. I don’t know if I’ve read any other book that feels so real. Like the reader is peeking into Lara Jean’s life. There are so many mundane everyday moments mixed…

Heartless Blog Tour: Review and Facebook Live Event

So here’s the deal: Marissa Meyer has a royally raucous imagination. Her retellings are so inventive, it’s hard to not think of them as originals.
