    So I picked this one up because I read Room and it totally changed me inside. Loved the book so read this one. My best description is UP (Pixar) with a mouthy foul mouthed teenager in Nice. Emma Donoghue is a fantastic interpersonal relationship novelist. The focus of this is family and what it means…

    A coauthored work with Maxine Paetro we go down another fast paced James Patterson production. I have not read many of these type of coauthored books. Serial killer and surprise the journalist at the center is a previous cop. That said this is a 3.5 from someone who guilty pleasures Alex Cross. Even though all…

  • Brother Thomas

    Again a master of words sweeps us into his world to catch snatches of the hereafter. With Odd this time we get a little closer to the supernatural. I was hoping that Odd would have gain some of the abilities outlined in the last book. But it appears he is just the simple fry cook…

  • The Outsiders

    How did I make it out of school without reading this? I picked it up because it is required reading for my boy entering Jr High. What a great book to capture this timeframe. Albeit out of my normal reading this is a classic and is for a reason. I you have not read it…

  • Forever Odd

    This is the second in the Odd Thomas series. The strange gets stranger with a rescue attempt of his best friend. The story is engaging and thoughtful. Lots of things it leaves you to think about. I enjoyed this book and am looking forward to the next book.

    This was book 2 of the world walker series. We continue to follow Lily through twist after twist. This book will leave you with more questions than answers, which makes for a good builder for book 3. If you enjoyed book 1 like I did, then you will like book 2. You will also get…

  • The Case of the Fickle Mermaid

    The third installment of the Brothers Grimm mysteries. Off to the high seas for this one. A pleasant mixture of fantastical creatures and scurvy dogs. Defiantly YA but still a pleasant read. These are short and cute, but I would have liked a bit more of a twist in the ending.

  • Odd Thomas

    A whole new “I see dead people…” Albeit I saw the twist at the end, I really did not want it. The writing is good and appeals to a mature audience. I will read book 2. I wish would would have had a little more insight to his talent (maybe book 2). I also wish…

  • Highfire

    A modern dragon tale. There is a significant amount of curse words and some parts of the plot that I wished had gone other ways, but it is a well paced novel. I like that it references Pete’s Dragon because it defiantly gives a nod to the boy and his dragon, however do not expect…

  • Trial by Fire

    A well written book the pacing kept me engaged. I like the magic system in this fantasy novel. Creative and the first I have read of its kind, albeit it does have elements of numerous types. This is the first book of the trilogy and there are a lot of questions that I hope are…
