I'll give L.M. Montgomery 4 out of 5 birds for Anne's House of Dreams. Anne is one of my all time favorite characters, but I didn't feel like she was all there in this book. I had glimpses of her, but I didn't get the same feelings as some of the first few books. I... Continue Reading →
I give Caitlin Doughty and her novel Will My Cat Say My Eyeballs? five out of five birds! If you love fun facts, death, and facts about dead people this is your next read or listen. It's a compilation of questions that kids have asked Caitlin who owns a funeral home and she answers them... Continue Reading →
I give Dana Mele's book People Like Us 3 out of 5 birds. The beginning of this book drew me in but then I lost my gumption for it in the middle. I finished it and the ending was not completely what I expected, so I felt redeemed. It was very mean girl vs... Continue Reading →
I give V.C. Andrews 4 out of 5 birds for his book Flowers in the Attic. This may be one of the most messed up books I have ever read. I mean it may even knock Baby Teeth out of the running. The idea was original and intriguing but WAY over the top. This book... Continue Reading →
I give You Too? by Janet Gurtler 5 out of 5 birds! I received this months ago from Netgalley but had such a hard time opening hence the delay.... But I'm so glad I did! I think everyone should read it. My eyes were open to new ways of thinking. Ideas that were not even... Continue Reading →
I sadly give The Burning a 3 out of 5 birds. I’d do 2.5 but no one wants to see half a bird… I want to thank NETGALLEY for a free copy of this book in exchange for my HONEST review. I wanted to LOVE this book but I did not. If you want to... Continue Reading →
The Button War deserves 5 out of 5 birds from me! I was recommended this book by a school librarian who knows that my taste isn't unicorns, rainbows, and happiness. It was opposite of that. The Button War had a feeling similar to Lord of the Flies.... When I was reading it I was under... Continue Reading →
I give this book 3 out of 5 birds. I didn't love it but I didn't despise it. I'm actually a huge fan of Laurie Halse Anderson (SPEAK). This one I felt like the language was so overdone that it was hard to keep focused. There was an entire chapter with the same sentence, which... Continue Reading →
Edited by Kelley Armstrong I give this book 4 out of 5 birds. This is such a TOUGH one to review because it's not one author but many. But this book had me by hello. It's all about first experiences with murder. I have yet to have my first, unless you include the time I... Continue Reading →
This book deserves 5 out of 5 birds from me! I was given this book as a gift my brother- who has been consistently cheering me on in my endeavor to become an author. I enjoy writing YA and felt like Mary Kole had great advice. I found it a slow read, not because it... Continue Reading →
