★★★ This is one of those books that you read because it's a classic, so you read it to say that you have. I have to say, I knew nothing about the book going in, and was just basing my thoughts on the title of the book. That was the wrong way to go about … Continue reading Their Eyes Were Watching God

Cloud Cuckoo Land
★★★ I feel like you almost have to read this book twice to really understand it. Or may be you just have to be smarter than me. I will fully admit it took me a little while to understand what was going on and why there were so many points storylines going on that were … Continue reading Cloud Cuckoo Land
American Gods
★★★ This book took a while to really get into. I especially struggled because the language was so coarse which I struggle to read and definitely do not find enjoyable. When things really started to pick up though, I realized that I was starting to care about what happened to the characters, so somewhere along … Continue reading American Gods
A Most Agreeable Murder
★★★★ This was a fun little who-dun-it mystery set in England in the 1800s. The characters and story are all over the place in the best way possible. I will admit, I'm not good at solving mysteries to begin with, but this one completely threw me for a loop because EVERYONE looked so freaking guilty … Continue reading A Most Agreeable Murder
Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West
★★ I've read this book twice, neither time really liking it. Why read it a second time? Because I'm doing the Rory Gilmore reading challenge and for some reason have decided that even if I have read a book before, I have to read it again in order for it to count. So, here we … Continue reading Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West
One of Us Is Dead
★★★★★ This was basically a five star read. I'm not a fan of the spice, so it's a 4.75. I couldn't put this book down. The first couple chapters, I was reading other books at the same time, but that quickly changed. This book had my whole focus. It felt like watching reality TV or … Continue reading One of Us Is Dead

Funny, You Don't Look Autistic: A Comedian's Guide to Life on the Spectrum by Michael McCreary My rating: 3 of 5 stars Funny, You Don't Look Autistic is a humorous first hand look at life on the autism spectrum.

Royal Wedding
Royal Wedding by Meg Cabot My rating: 1 of 5 stars I've read this book twice, and am still confused. This series started out as a mix of middle-grade and YA books. This last one is firmly planted in adult literature. I can't figure out who the audience for this series is supposed to be. … Continue reading Royal Wedding
Molls Like It Hot
Molls Like It Hot by Darren Dash My rating: 4 of 5 stars Holy guacamole! I finished reading this a while ago, and have been trying to gather my thoughts ever since. If I had been Eyrie, I straight up would have died. Turns out, I'm not that great at judging who the good guys … Continue reading Molls Like It Hot
The Hypochondriac’s Pocket Guide to Horrible Diseases You Probably Already Have
The Hypochondriac's Pocket Guide to Horrible Diseases You Probably Already Have by Dennis DiClaudio My rating: 2 of 5 stars Oh my, there are some gruesome diseases in here. There are also some that are just plain scary, not that I started thinking I had them, but just knowing things like that exist is worrisome. … Continue reading The Hypochondriac’s Pocket Guide to Horrible Diseases You Probably Already Have
