3 stars I received this book from Bookriot in exchange for a honest review. My favorite thing about this book is how varied it is. At the same time that is also what I dislike about the book, but for the most part, it works as an advantage. For starters, because it’s so varied I…

2 stars A quick read. Stupid, yet oddly hilarious. It’s not the best parody I have ever read, but it is still pretty funny. I don’t regret the dollar I spent on it.

5 stars I received this book from Goodreads’ First Reads in exchange for an honest review. Chanel Brenner takes a tragic, heart-wrenching loss in her life and creates awe-inspiring beauty from it. This book of poetry is truly powerful. Shifting tone from regretful, snarky, guilty, loving, depressed, angered, annoyed, accepting, and so on, Brenner writes…

As a person with a B.A….

4 stars A funny book filled with silly stories. I will admit watching Ellen DeGeneres is funnier than reading her work, because of her timing and body language, but this book is still quite humorous.

3 stars The thing I really liked about this book was that it stayed true to the characters. For the most part, Xena stayed Xena and Gabrielle stayed Gabrielle. At times the dialog got a little awkward (overuse of “I mean” or lengthy explanations), but I think a lot of that had to do with…

The explanations are simple and the glossary in the book of the book is helpful. Cannell does a good job of…

4 stars If you read this book because you want to learn anything about cooking, you are going to have a bad time.However, that does not mean you should not read it. You just need to go in with the right mindset. Some of these recipes I would consider trying (Guaca-hole-y) while others are a…
