3 stars A wonderfully fantastic journey through the unknown. This book is pure Gaiman, filled with all sorts of oddities, mystical elements, and pure magic. I listened to the audiobook of this as read by the author. This is the third or fourth audiobook I’ve listened to by Gaiman and each one is a treat….

4 stars I grew up reading the Judy Moody books and as I read some of the later books for the first time as a adult, I still feel the same engagement as when I was younger. This one had such a unique storyline. It was fun to see Judy experience some aspects of college…

4 stars A very humorous, overall-lighthearted book. Within these pages, Ephron bemoans the struggles of aging necks, messy purses, routine personal upkeep, parenting, and not being able to find a once-loved food, among other things, all with wit and humor. I really enjoyed the book overall, but I am having a difficult time deciding on…

4 stars Another wonderful Judy Moody adventure. I loved these books growing up and I still love them today. They are nice, easy reads that still incorporate great messages and entertaining stories. This one focuses on balancing new friends and old friends, a topic that is very relatable. The story does a good job presenting…

4 stars A well-written and perfectly crafted story that is pure Gaiman. I loved it. It was lovely and haunting and sad and suspenseful and just all around a great story. As usual, Gaiman also did a fantastic job reading it. I always feel like I’m curled up listening to a creepy bedtime story whenever…

2 stars This was an interesting concept for a book, however the way it was carried out was frustrated for me. The plot is set out as if the reader is meant to be able to help solve it, but for me, the solution came out of nowhere and I couldn’t engage with the clues….

A fantastic exploration of hate and revenge told from a variety of perspectives. From betrayed exes and disgruntled employees to vampires and fairy tale characters not satisfied with The End. This collection includes my drabbles, “A Giant’s Revenge”, “Bluebeard’s Bloody Test”, “Guess My Name”, “Fate of an Evil Queen”, and “One Night in the Lumberjack…

4 stars I received a copy of this book through Goodreads in exchange for an honest review. This was an absolutely fascinating read that examines placebos, hypnotism, false memories, and related topics. While in no way comprehensive, it is an interesting examination of some of the science, history, and explanations behind such occurrences. The book…

5 stars This is such a fantastic series. I absolutely love it! Another brilliant chronicle of chaos, mishaps, and things going wrong, but Mildred Hubble working it all out in the end. I was instantly pulled in by another term at Miss Cackle’s Academy and ended up reading this much more quickly than I intended…

2 stars A nice quick read about the spirit of Christmas. Overall, this book was okay. I didn’t enjoy it as much as some of the earlier books in the series, but it was still entertaining. I did like the emphasis on giving over receiving, making presents, and being nice all year around, not just…
