The Storied Life of A.J. Fikry

Author: Gabrielle Zevin

Book review added by Mel on 2024-01-14

Gabrielle Zevin's writing always surprises me. I rate a book 5 stars when it makes me go through different emotions, when it overwhelms me to the point that I feel the need to discuss it with others, or when it makes me stop and think for a bit, when it challenges me. The Storied Life of AJ Firky is great for book lovers. But it also makes you think. What would you do if you were in their shoes? It's definitely a book ... Read Full Review »

Seven Days in June

Book review added by Mel on 2023-12-24

"Stop writing about me." "You first." Once in a while, you grab a book that completely draws you in and doesn't let up until the very last page. Tia Williams' Seven Days in June was one of those books for me. Eva Mercier is a single mom and an erotica author famous for her "Cursed" series. Shane Hall is an award winning literary writer well known for being mysterious and a recluse. When Shane unexpectedly shows up at a... Read Full Review »

Looking for Jane

Book review added by Mel on 2023-12-16

What a wonderful debut for Heather Marshall. I hope she continues to write Canadian historical fiction, because I am here for it! This book was highly recommended by the Canadian bookstagram community, and I was recommending it before having even read it. Is there historical fiction about abortion rights in Canada? Yes please! Now that I have read it, this book is about so much more than that. It's about motherhood, co... Read Full Review »

Book review added by Mel on 2023-12-05

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book by B.K. Borison. Typically, I don't gravitate towards holiday-themed books, even though I do like Christmas. I'm not the type of person who listens to Christmas music and watches Hallmark movies all month long. However, this book turned out to be the ideal choice for my first holiday read. The story revolves around Stella Blooms, who is living her dream of owni... Read Full Review »

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

Author: Gabrielle Zevin

Book review added by Mel on 2023-12-05

There's something about Gabrielle Zevin's writing that pulls me in and holds on to my heart until the very last page. This is a story about friendship, work, joy, love, tragedy, perseverance, grief, and video games. Told over the span of three decades, we follow Sadie and Sam, from video game playmates in childhood to inseparable business partners designing their very own and soon-to-be very successful video game(s) al...

The Diamond Eye

Author: Kate Quinn
Rating
Book review added by Lynn on 2024-03-24

Kate Quinn has done an exceptional job in portraying the remarkable story of Mila, a real-life woman. In this book, she not only brings Mila's journey to life but also adds layers of intrigue, romance, and the rich Russian culture of that era.

Mila believes she possesses superior abilities compared to others in defending against the invading forces. Unlike in England, France, and America, where women's roles were... Read Full Review »
