I am not going to do reviews for these books, but I do want to recommend them to you all. These are a few books that I read while I was absent from the blog a while ago. Dear Fang, With Love by Rufi Thorpe was a book about a young girl with bipolar disorder. ...
Title: What We Saw Author: Aaron Hartzler Genre: Young Adult Publisher: HarperTeen Release Date: September 2015 Format: Hardcover Pages: 321 I would first like to say how refreshing it is to have a male author step forward and address rape culture the way that Aarom Hartzler has done with What We Saw. Rape culture is so ...
Columbine. What comes to mind when I say that word? For me, I remember the aftershocks of terror that enveloped a nation. I remember the difference in school afterwards. I remember having evacuation drills for shootings and bomb threats. I remember school doors being locked so that no one could get in or out. I ...
Title: The Siren Series: The Original Sinners Author: Tiffany Reisz Genre: Erotica, Romance Format: Kindle I don’t know what to say here. This book was surprising. It went places I didn’t see coming. The characters are all well written and their interactions are all understandable. But… I just don’t have much to say about this ...
Title: One True Loves Author: Taylor Jenkins Reid Genre: Women's Fiction Publisher: Washington Square Press Release Date: 2016 Pages: 331 It’s been awhile since I posted anything.

I love being able to witness two characters meet ...
Title: Bad Feminist Author: Roxane Gay Genre: Non-fiction, women's studies Format: Audiobook, paperback This is a book that I have been meaning to read since it came out. Like most feminist writings this book has really positive and really negative reviews. I actually listened to the audiobook and then ordered the book from the library ...
I have two reviews for you today! In the past two days I have finished both Hardwired by Meredith Wild and Fallout by Ellen Hopkins. Both books are four star reads for me. They are wildly different in genre and content, but I loved each in their own way. Let’s begin with Wild’s Hardwired. This ...
Let’s go there. Banned books. One thing that makes me unbelievably angry is that people have the audacity to ban a book or books. They have the gumption to tell me, my children, you, and your family what they can and cannot read. Whose decision is it to pick up a book or to not ...
I have recovered from my book slump! Woo hoo! Currently I am reading three very different books, but I am loving each in their own right. Firstly, I started Meredith Wild’s Hacker series and am reading Hardwired. This is a mature (18+) book. I am loving the characters right now. The push and pull between ...
