Spy School by Stuart Gibbs My rating: 3 of 5 stars I'm not going to lie, I've been reading these books out of order. I started with book 5 not knowing who any of the characters were or their backstories. Now that I have finally read the first one, it makes me appreciate what happens … Continue reading Spy School
Soul Remains
Soul Remains by Sam Hooker My rating: 4 of 5 stars This book is an absolute joy. The writing brings the story to life. The world that Sam Hooker has created is one that I hope to read about in more books. Even the way legal matters are handled in this society were anything but … Continue reading Soul Remains
Crime Rhymes II: Vice Verses
Crime Rhymes II: Vice Verses by Dixie J. Whitted My rating: 4 of 5 stars This book is filled with gallows humor, which admittedly, some people might not find funny at all. I am not one of those people. I will admit, there were some rhymes that I did not understand. I read them a … Continue reading Crime Rhymes II: Vice Verses
Glory Be
Glory Be by Augusta Scattergood My rating: 3 of 5 stars As much as we hate to admit it racism and segregation are real things and Augusta Scattergood does a wonderful job of capturing the emotions and tension in the southern part of the United States during the Civil Rights movement. This book really shows … Continue reading Glory Be
The Fire Within
The Fire Within by Chris d'Lacey My rating: 3 of 5 stars This is the second time I've read this book. I really like this series, the ending just kind of confused me, so I'm giving it another shot. The Last Dragon Chronicles mixes fantasy with reality. There are fantasy aspects, but then the reader … Continue reading The Fire Within

There are a few food characters in it, but most of the characters are human, which … Continue reading Croquette & Empanada
Bad Luck
Bad Luck by Pseudonymous Bosch My rating: 2 of 5 stars It's really hard for me to keep everything straight in this series. You never know from one moment to the next who is good and who is evil. In a way that's good, but I don't know. It makes it hard for me to … Continue reading Bad Luck

Grump
Grump: The (Fairly) True Tale of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves by Liesl Shurtliff My rating: 2 of 5 stars This book had an interesting spin on the classic fairy tale, I'm just not sure if I would ever read it again. It's definitely geared towards younger children who, like me, may find some … Continue reading Grump
The Tremendous Baron Time Machine
The Tremendous Baron Time Machine by Eric Bower My rating: 4 of 5 stars This series is just fun. It's one of those that doesn't even try to take itself seriously. Adding time travel into the mix just made it that much more enjoyable, especially when things like the great wall of China was explained. … Continue reading The Tremendous Baron Time Machine
