Darth Paper Strikes Back
Darth Paper Strikes Back by Tom Angleberger My rating: 3 of 5 stars I have to say, I was as shocked by the ending as the characters. I thought I had things figured out, but no. While there is a plot twist, it didn't seem like something so out of character for Dwight that it … Continue reading Darth Paper Strikes Back
Regina Rising
Regina Rising by Wendy Toliver My rating: 2 of 5 stars I would recommend watching the show before reading this book.

There was part of of the … Continue reading Regina Rising
Skulduggery Pleasant
Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy My rating: 4 of 5 stars Honestly, this series, it is in a class of its own. It has a ton of dry humor that I enjoy.

Ozma of Oz
Ozma of Oz by L. Frank Baum My rating: 3 of 5 stars I love the Oz books. I mean this one says, "...at a third ring he screamed in a fury, "Hippikaloric!" which must be a dreadful word because we don't know what it means." Really it's lines like that that make books enjoyable. … Continue reading Ozma of Oz

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

Jasper John Dooley: Left Behind
Jasper John Dooley: Left Behind by Caroline Adderson My rating: 2 of 5 stars The Jasper John Dooley series is one that I think works well for its target audience, but as an adult, I have to admit, I was getting kind of annoyed with the main character. I have to keep reminding myself that … Continue reading Jasper John Dooley: Left Behind
Rory Branagan (Detective)
Rory Branagan (Detective) by Andrew Clover My rating: 4 of 5 stars I'm not sure what I was expecting with this book, but it wasn't what I got. I mean that in the best way possible.
