Alright Cindy, I'm like a 3.87 out of 5 birds for The Stars of Whistling Ridge, rounded up. I was very excited to get my hands on this ARC audio copy from Netgalley in exchange for my honest review. Last year I read Where the Watermelons Grow by Cindy and LOVE every second of it.... Continue Reading →
Harriet Tubman: The Road to Freedom by Catherine Clinton
Catherine Clinton deserves 5 out of 5 birds for her biography Harriet Tubman: The Road to Freedom. At the beginning of the year I watched the movie about Harriet and fell in love with her.

Mrs Piggle-Wiggle’s Magic by Betty MacDonald
I'll give Betty MacDonald five out of five birds! This is the second installment in her Mrs. Piggle Wiggle's series. It was a fun read with my little girls. I thought that the stories were a little bit of a stretch but none-the-less we enjoyed their quirkiness. We loved the ending, imagining the kids in... Continue Reading →
Restart by Gordon Korman
Okay GorDON Korman, you get a full chicken dinner of five out of five birds for Restart. Was it cheesy? Maybe a little bit but I absolutely loved the message and the feeling I was left with. The book is written in many students perspectives and really allows you to see the WHOLE picture. You... Continue Reading →
The Snake Pit by Mary Jane Ward
I'll give Mary Jane Ward 4 out of 5 birds for her novel The Snake Pit! This is a tough book to find my friends. I bid for it on Ebay and waited patiently for it to come. My good friend Genie recommended to me because she knows I like the crazy in life. If... Continue Reading →

Everything I Never Told You by Celeste Ng
I give Celeste Ng 4 out of 5 birds for Everything I Never Told You. This was a very unique read. It was terribly sad and depressing but beautifully written. I wanted to finish, but it was by no means a happy book. So perhaps wait until after Covid-19. The pain and sorrow in this... Continue Reading →
The Blue Castle by L.M. Montgomery
I give L.M. Montgomery's The Blue Castle 5 out of 5 birds. I'm a huge L.M. fan and this book didn't let me down. Was it a little bit corny, yes. But I fell in love with the characters, I almost want to have one more child and name her Valancy. I thought it had... Continue Reading →
The Burning by Laura Bates
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 Woman in Cabin 10
I'll give The Woman in Cabin 10 4 out of 5 birds. I think while reading it I was thinking a solid 3 birds but I'm remembering it fondly now... It was a classic page turner full of twists and turns. I had to fight some of it because it seemed SO FAR FETCHED. But... Continue Reading →
