When I first finished the book, I thought it was an enjoyable novel. It was an interesting story to focus on the Pied Piper child evacuations in WWII and a young girl going missing destroying multiple families and the village they were living in. Yet, the more I think about it, the less I like […]
Before we get to the review, I want to bring to your attention the Go Fund Me campaign to help Daneia and Mohamed save their family. Dania (it’s spelled both ways in the post) comes from a family of 9. They have lost everything, our home, our friends. They’ve been at war for 8 months […]
I remember the day I was browsing the bookstore and came across Stalking Jack the Ripper. It was a recently released book—had been out for a week, maybe two—but I had never heard of it. I’m obsessed with the Jack the Ripper murders, as basic as it is to say, it’s the case that really […]
Before we get to the review I want to bring attention to a GoFundMe to save a family from Gaza and start again. Haya Murtaja and her two daughters, Sham and Maryam, have lost everything since the war. Her daughters have suffered a lot in the war, especially since they now live in a camp, […]

I was so excited to get my hands on this book. For the most part, I really enjoyed the novel. It mostly fell flat for me at the end. First off, the set up of the novel was so well-done. I loved the back and forth between present day and the Harry and Javier past […]
Adrienne Young brings an ethereal story with unforgettable characters. I loved the story, characters, and mystery. The opening of the book truly brings you in to the atmosphere. The line “put me to sleep with the fiddle at sunset,” felt so raw and made me want to continue reading. The story immediately introduces us to […]
I’m pretty sure I heard about this book on Instagram and proceeded to immediately pre-order it. Wow! I am blown away by the beautiful writing and wonderful characters that Victoria Mier brought to life. One tiny thing I will bring up is that it did take a minute to get into the story. It was […]
Before starting on the review for the book, I have to admit that I’m not a fan of The Bachelor/ette, Bachelor in Paradise, or any of it’s many other spin-offs. I’ve watched a season of the Bachelor (or maybe the Bachelorette) and a season of Bachelor in Paradise. It contained a lot of what is […]
