Now, I know that a lot of people don’t consider the Twilight stories to be “real” vampires, and since I honestly feel it is more of a love story than a vampire story, I will leave it out of this post, even though it would definitely be one of my favorite vampire stories. So here […]
First, thanks to Harper Collins Children’s books for allowing me to read an ARC of this book. As someone who taught middle and high school students for the past 17 years, and who is now a high school librarian, the subject of bullying is one that is always on my mind. As I started reading […]
Okay, maybe I’m stretching again for a topic today. But I do enjoy a good book about UFOs or alien abduction type stories. So, once again I will share 5 of my favorite of this type of book. 1. Now this is a very recent YA book, in fact I don’t think it is […]
Although time travel is not in itself a genre, it is a type of story that I really seem to enjoy. I’ve always kind of sided with the theory that you have to be careful because any little thing you change in the past will completely change the future. But one of the books I’m […]
Today I’m going to share some of my favorite science fiction stories. As a former science teacher, I have problems with some science fiction that is just too unbelievable.

I checked this book out from the high school library where I work because I really wanted to read it. I’m glad I did, as I can now say I have read a story by one of the authors I’ll be moderating a panel with in May, just in case I don’t get a chance […]
Stacking the Shelves is hosted by Tynga’s Reviews. It is a way for us to share the new books we have collected. A few things this week. The only physical books were ones I bought, but that’s okay I guess. Physical books purchased: So I had to buy Dorothy Must Die, because I had to give […]
First thanks to Egmont and Edelweiss for allowing me to read this e-book before the 3rd book in the series comes out this summer. Just like when I was reading the first one, The Loners, this one was also hard to put down. The story from the first one is that there is a virus […]
Okay, Q is a hard letter to decide what to talk about. So I’m going to talk a little about 3 different topics that begin with Q and have to do with books. Quiet – Do you have to have quiet when you read? It kind of depends for me. While I can just read […]
