Freefall is a story told from the alternating perspectives of Allison and Maggie Carpenter, daughter and mother, respectively. The story starts with Maggie being informed that the plane that Allison was … Continue reading Freefall by Jessica Barry (No Spoilers)

The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty (No Spoilers)
If you're looking for just a smol example of how out-of-hand my physical TBR is, look no further than this book. When I saw that The Kingdom of Copper was coming out in 2019, I went ahead and requested The City of Brass so that I could read the books in order and fairly close together because … Continue reading The City of Brass by S.A.

The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson (Spoilers)
I'm definitely not a scary books or movies kind of person. A lot of my reading is more lighthearted and serves as an escape from the harsh realities of day to day life. I don't know what kind of magic is associated with Halloween, but it's strong enough to make even me want to watch … Continue reading The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jackson (Spoilers)
Firstlife by Gena Showalter (No Spoilers)
Well, I was totally right about how many books I would finish while in the land of no internet and no cell service. I finished five books - three of which were over 400 pages long, one of which was in the 600 page range. One of them was a reread (I wanted to remember … Continue reading Firstlife by Gena Showalter (No Spoilers)

And I think I might have mentioned this before (The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls), but rating memoirs and biographies is hard. How do you … Continue reading A Stolen Life by Jaycee Dugard
