4 stars I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review. Certainly an odd book. It is both humorous and heartbreaking, chaotic and calming, hectic and heartfelt. It involves flawed characters, situations of questionable morals, messy storytelling, and confusion. In other words, it is a beautiful ode to life and the…

4 stars This book is absolutely gorgeous. Each page is phenomenal and Harrison’s illustrations are pure magic. The story itself is a tale of bullying, self-consciousness, and wishing one’s appearance was different, but most importantly, it is a story about loving yourself and seeing inner beauty. This is a fantastic book with a wonderful message….

5 stars A fantastic book for learning how to code in Python as well as the basics of computer science. I read this book for a beginner’s Python class. It was easy to follow and did well explaining the various aspects of computer science using Python as an example. Each chapter builds nicely on the…

3 stars or a debut novel, this one is well-written. Overall, it was interesting to read. The majority of the book felt like it was trying to shock the reader with shallow explorations of mental health, violence, murder, and self harm. Not generally my cup of tea, but I’m always interested in books that become…

5 stars An absolutely charming tale. It is so easy to get swept up by the story of the Fossiles. At some point, I would like to go back and read the actual book. I listened to the audiobook version that is a dramatization rather than a reading of the full book. It was very…

4 stars A quick and entertaining read. This one is fast-paced and sprinkled with facts about ninja and samurai. An interesting book in which Annie and Jack discover that Morgan is missing, which begins their adventure to help her by finding four mystery objects. While there was not a great deal of plot in this…

5 stars Growing up, I loved the Magic Tree House series. I had the first four and read them over and over again. Now, as an adult, I’ve made the habit of going back and re-reading them as well as the later books that I never read. This is such a fantastic book. Simple, yet…

3 stars For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-Cycle I will start by saying I only have a very basic knowledge of Lovecraft and Sherlock Holmes stories and have not read any of them (on my to-read list, I promise!). However, I was still able to enjoy this audiobook. This short story is only about…

1 star I’m not going to spend too much time on this review, because many others have already expressed exactly how I feel about this book. It is not very well-written. It is way too long and dragged out. And most of all, it horribly represents BDSM as some sort of affliction one must rise…

3 stars Overall, a good read with helpful suggestions to better one’s relationship with food. I am not necessarily the target reader for this book, but did find some of the mindset changes helpful.I also liked its anti-diet stance and the focus on feeling comfortable with oneself. The basic premise of the book is to…
