This is a blog reviewing the latest book I have read along with the books I have self-published. Please feel free to follow along with my reading / writing journey.

Book 50 of the Goosebumps series. This one was different but fit well into the series. I loved the use of creeps in this one. I loved the moral dilemmas. The underlying theme of what happens to a person who is teased all the time. A very good read and not too scary for the…

This book is really focused on getting exercise into your daily life in the form of more conscious movements and being intentional about where you could be getting more exercise. There was one cringy example for me, but otherwise this book is mainly a hype session to getting people up and working out.

Book 1 of the Goosebumps: Hall of Horrors series. A different take on the Pet Cemetery. How many times has the “watch our pet… pet dies… try to replace the pet” been done? Well, this take is more horror than appears on the surface. It was a fun read and sticks to the normal Goosebumps…

Book 52 of the Goosebumps series. This one was more asking the sci-fi films like Flubber and such than horror. I love how it focuses on the price of fame and what goes along with stardom. The ending was perfect and I like that winning isn’t always what you might think. Super fun read, safe…

Book 14 of the Completionist Chronicles. I love that this one was a little all over the place. It definitely puts Joe right in the middle of people so much stronger than him. Great steps forward and lots of new challenges. Overall a great addition to the series and at the end we are reunited…

This Newberry award winning book takes us into some of the mythology of Korea. It was a fascinating book about dealing with and moving on after the passing of a loved one. A coming of age book about going from being invisible to taking charge of your life. I can see why it won the…

Book 48 of the Goosebumps series. A fun Halloween scare. A little different than some and a little the same. Overall a fun read that is solid YA horror. The twist was just okay, but at least tied the story altogether.

Book 46 of the Goosebumps series. This one could be titled world’s worst grandparents. The story follows the standard format and puts our two siblings, who enjoy scaring each other, against a monster. Overall, if you enjoy this format this is another just like those standard ones.

Book 1 of the series of the same name. This book ties sci-fi in a dystopian future highlighting the evil that people will go to in the name progress. I really did enjoy this one and think it was well worth the read and you can see why it is award winning.

An interesting novel talking about sacred covenants and how they tie us to the Lord through the temple. A lot of the history through the Bible and other scripture on people making and keeping covenants. Overall an interesting read that I enjoyed.
