The Orchard Keeper
by Cormac McCarthy
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Obvious debut; not a bad thing, but it does feel a bit less refined in its grit. Maybe my fault rather than the book’s as I read it sporadically over the course of a month. Will always love and appreciate his writing style above all else.

In this book a little girl named Karen Brewer lives next door to a lady named Mrs.Porter. Mrs. Porter wears long robes and has crazy gray hair. She even has a black cat as well. Karen is not allowed to spy on the neighbors but she does on Mrs. Porter. This is because she believes that Mrs. Porter is a witch. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.

Book 1 of Shatter Me series This book was impossible to put down! It was full of suspense and it had an interesting plot (that is present in every dystopian book). The main character, Juliette, is a powerful and srong character. I loved seeing her voice change throuhout the book. I will be back soon to get the sequel!

I really like this book but I dont really love it. Its a great book i would probobaly read it again but it gets boring in some parts. There are parts of the book that kind of get boring for me because of my ADHD but I still really like it and I will always like a little spookiness.

book cover


To be honest, I was expecting a lot more out of the book because of how famous it is. It ended up just being about a boy who accidentally ended up being the "best friend" of a kid who killed himself. All because of a letter he wrote. I understand the overall message of the book was much more than the story, yet I still couldn't let go of the fact that I didn't really connect with it as well as I hoped to. It was a quick read, so I was thankful, but I am still disappointed.

None Shall Sleep

Ok, so you are kidding me right now. I was so excited about this and thought it would be so good but it did not meet my expectations. I was hooked and then I was not and then I was and then I was not. I felt the storyline and plot were not as consistent as they should have been. I am in between rating this a one and a two star but I think it is a one. I would have rated it a two if they ended up kissing but that never happened so now I am upset. I kind of hope there is another one after this since they get another opportunity at the end of the book. I might read if there is one.

25 ALIVE

book cover


This book from James Patterson I enjoyed reading. It had a few plots twist and turns, the homicide detective knows her way around a crime scene. Lindsay's one-time partner Warren Jacobi who rose to chief of police, taught her everything she knew. Nothing could prepare Lindsay when she gets the call to investigate a murder. The Shock when she realizes that the victim was her partner, Warren. I will not give the plot twist away, if you haven't read this one yet and like James Patterson, I recommend checking it out.
