I confess that BOTM has become my… Continue reading My March 2022 Book of the Month Pick
A thriller from Book of the Month, I was excited to get this book since it captured a lot of attention online. Stacey Willingham's debut novel, this thriller has an interesting plot centered around Chloe, a psychologist who just so happens to be the daughter of a convicted serial killer. Her father was arrested for… Continue reading A Review: “A Flicker in the Dark” by Stacy Willingham
I've been on a Katherine Center kick lately with this being the third book I've read by her in the last two and a half months. Center's writing is so easy and enjoyable to me. I guess that's why her novels are considered "comfort reads." In this novel, main character Cassie Hanwell is a firefighter… Continue reading A Review: “Things You Save in a Fire” by Katherine Center
This book was one that I had been wanting to read for a long time but had put off for so long. I managed to go throughout high school and college without having to read this book as a requirement for class. I thought it was going to be like "To Kill A Mockingbird" but… Continue reading A Review: “Native Son” by Richard Wright
Happy New Year! We're less than a week in, and 2022 has not been kind. My husband and I spent the last week sick with COVID-19, but thankfully, we have recovered. I'm stuck in quarantine for the next seven days, but on the bright side, I've been able to catch up on some reading.

In this post,… Continue reading My December Book of the Month Pick

Here is the book's description: "Margaret Jacobsen is just about to… Continue reading A Review: “How to Walk Away” by Katherine Center

Main character Hannah's father passes away, and although she did not know him, his will states that he wants her… Continue reading A Review: “The Sweetest Remedy” by Jane Igharo
Warning: Spoiler alert ahead, if you have not read this book! "Shadow and Bone" is a new fantasy series that has gained popularity over the past year with the premiere of the Netflix series of the same name. I had never heard of this series before watching the show on Netflix, but I was intrigued… Continue reading A Review: “Shadow and Bone” by Leigh Bardugo
This book was my July Book of the Month pick! I chose this book because I've never read anything about the black women officers during the WWII era, and I thought this would be an interesting read. This book - although it had its flaws - was an enjoyable read for me. I really enjoyed… Continue reading A Review: “Sisters in Arms” by Kaia Alderson
