I just finished reading Blind Faith by Sagarika Ghose (273 pages). I’m not quite sure what to think of it yet. I definitely wanted to like it more than I actually did, though. Which is not to say I DISliked it, I just…don’t know what to think yet.

The story is about an Indian British woman named Mia who is devastated by…[Read more]

I have a new favorite author: Vendela Vida. She’s fantastic! I love love love her books. I just finished “Let the Northern Lights Erase Your Name” (240 pages) and it was so great. I can’t really talk about it at all because I don’t want to give away the plot, but you (everyone) should go read it. I also read Caroll Spinney’s book “The Wisdom of…[Read more]

Okay @internrachel, @julia1 I have about 6 books to put on here but I’ll do them one at a time. First on the stack is Dragonsoul, by Jaida Jones and Danielle Bennett.

Then I realised this was the Glen Duncan who wrote ‘I, Lucifer’ which was brilliant so I got stuck in. Duncan goes far beyond telling a simple…[Read more]

Today I read Ill Wind by Rachel Caine (337 pages).
I also finished the graphic novel Potential by Ariel Schrag (224 pages, 112 pages in Book Club Pages), which I have been reading off and on for a few weeks now.

“Ill Wind” is the first book in the ‘Weather Warden’ urban fantasy series. It’s about a woman named Joanne…[Read more]

I read The Girls Who Went Away: The Hidden History of Women Who Surrendered Children for Adoption in the Decades Before Roe v. Wade by Ann Fessler (368 pages). It was incredibly interesting and also SO sad, I’m pretty sure I cried at least 3 times. I knew a little about homes for unwed mothers and such but I didn’t really know what massive…[Read more]
