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

Things My Son Needs to Know about the World
Things My Son Needs to Know about the World by Fredrik Backman My rating: 4 of 5 stars This book is deceptively humorous. I say that because the cover and title make it seem like you are about to read some deep thoughts about how to navigate the world. There are moments like that in … Continue reading Things My Son Needs to Know about the World

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
