It's been too long since I posted a book review. I've been reading, I just haven't been writing about. From Fame to Ruin follows the lives of Carol, the heiress of a crumbling business empire and Ricardo, a rock star. The story weaves back and forth between present day and when they met almost four… Continue reading Book Review: From Fame To Ruin by Jina Bazzar

Book Review: Irresistible by Melanie Harlow
Amazon.com I went through a phase where I read six of Melanie Harlow's books back to back. I really liked her earlier books better than the more recent ones. Irresistible is much better than Only You, but the story still is lacking. Frannie has lived a super sheltered life. She was born with a heart… Continue reading Book Review: Irresistible by Melanie Harlow
Book Review: Heir of Fury by Jina S. Bazzar
I am little weird about reading the last book in a series. I used to gobble them up the minute they hit my Kindle. After too many book hangovers, I started savoring them a little bit more. I started reading Heir of Fury a while ago, pacing myself by only reading one or two chapters… Continue reading Book Review: Heir of Fury by Jina S. Bazzar
Book Review # 2 – Emergency Contact by Mary H.K. Choi
Image Credit: Amazon.com I always feel bad when I write an unfavorable book review, like I did for The Upside of Falling.

I completely relate to that. … Continue reading Book Review # 2 – Emergency Contact by Mary H.K. Choi
Book Review: The Upside of Falling Down by Rebekah Crane

It had so much working for it: a beautiful setting (Ireland), an unusual premise (the aftermath of a plane crash) and it was wonderfully written. Then the boy entered the picture. I read a lot of novels with a… Continue reading Book Review: The Upside of Falling Down by Rebekah Crane
#Flashback Friday – Weekly Reader Books
Besides Barbie Magazine, (I need to write a post about that.) there was another thing I looked forward to receiving in the mail every month: my box of Weekly Reader books. For those not familiar with this magical box, it was a subscription of books based on the child's age. I would stop playing just so I could… Continue reading #Flashback Friday – Weekly Reader Books
Toni Morrison
I've been struggling to write this post. I've arranged and rearranged the words in my head but cannot seem to find the ones worthy of this phenomenal woman. My introduction to Toni Morrison was during the summer after 7th grade, which was the summer I pretty much spent on the front porch reading. I read… Continue reading Toni Morrison
