Bad with Money: The Imperfect Art of Getting Your Financial Sh*t Together by Gaby Dunn My rating: 1 of 5 stars When I first started reading this book, I felt like there was some useful information.

The Dead Queens Club
The Dead Queens Club by Hannah Capin My rating: 3 of 5 stars After reading this, I feel like I need to catch up on the story of Henry VIII. I'm sure there were little parts in the book that didn't come across as well as they would have if I had been more knowledgeable. … Continue reading The Dead Queens Club
Left Standing
Left Standing: The Miraculous Story of How Mason Wells's Faith Survived the Boston, Paris, and Brussels Terror Attacks by Mason Wells My rating: 2 of 5 stars I have mixed feelings about this book.

Hate List
Hate List by Jennifer Brown My rating: 3 of 5 stars The Hate List is a pretty intense book. It deals with school shootings and the after affects. Jennifer Brown chose a point of view that I feel was lacking in all the books about the horrible things that happen to teenagers any more. Books … Continue reading Hate List
Time Jumpers
Time Jumpers by Brandon Mull My rating: 3 of 5 stars This is one of those books that I'm going to have to read over again to figure out how I really feel about the ending. Ending a series is hard, but Brandon Mull has always managed to do it wonderfully. I own all of … Continue reading Time Jumpers
Competence
Competence by Gail Carriger My rating: 4 of 5 stars Um, so Prim is my favorite character out of ALL the different series. I mean, I know her mother is, well, special...but Prim takes it to a whole other level. I would really enjoy a random sub-series of the adventures of Prim. It wouldn't be … Continue reading Competence

The subject matter is not happy go lucky like a lot of books written for this age group, but it is real, which I feel is really important. There are plenty of fantasy novels … Continue reading Falling Over Sideways
Hello, Universe
Hello, Universe by Erin Entrada Kelly My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was a really cute book that I feel teaches important lessons, especially in today's world. The kids in this book are not your average kids. One is deaf, one is anxious, and one has family issues, but they are still just kids … Continue reading Hello, Universe
Thud
Thud! by Terry Pratchett My rating: 4 of 5 stars Reading this book kind of reminded me of the saying "those who don't remember history are doomed to repeat it." That's what seems to be going on with an impending war. The question is, can Sam Vimes stop it when he has to get home … Continue reading Thud
Space Case
Space Case by Stuart Gibbs My rating: 3 of 5 stars I think I read this book mostly because of the title. I really liked the play on words, so good job Stuart Gibbs. Space Case is a futuristic book following a group of families that live on the moon. When one of the scientists … Continue reading Space Case
