Dark Parties by Sara Grant My rating: 3 of 5 stars The main character of this book is Neva, and she is 16. She has lived her whole life under the Protectosphere, and feels like she is trapped. Part of the feeling comes from what her grandmother used to tell her, at least before her […]
The Help by Kathryn Stockett My rating: 5 of 5 starsThis book is about exactly what the title says. It is about the women who were housekeepers and more in Mississippi in 1962. These were black women, who as we read in the book were often more of a mother to the white children they […]

Immortal Beloved by Cate Tiernan My rating: 5 of 5 stars I remember when I first saw this book, I believe it was around the same time as when The Eternal Ones came out, and at first I thought this was another reincarnation novel, and I was intrigued. But I picked it up and read […]

Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs My rating: 3 of 5 stars I love the theme behind this book. A bunch of random old photos found and a story built around them. Although some of the pictures were kind of boring, I was hoping for more of the really neat looking ones. […]
