Atmosphere
by Taylor Jenkins Reid
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Taylor Jenkins Reid knows how to write a period piece. There was so much research put in behind this story that was nothing short of impressive, especially as a novice space nerd myself. As for the actual story, certain parts fell short for me. I wish there were more character development for the sister and less prose about our place in the universe, as it started to feel redundant after the first 200 pages. I'm excited for her next book already!

Tender Is The Flesh

book cover


5 stars “She had the human look of a domesticated animal” This novel is absolutely disgusting and I mean that in the most respectful way possible. The whole concept of this book—All meat is infected therefore humans cannot consume it. This leads the the massacre of farm to pet animals, ultimately resulting in the consumption of “special meat” or better known, human meat. We follow Marcos working on a processing plant going through the motions of the transition, his wife leaving, his sister’s views, his father’s declining health and a special gift: and FGP female. Honestly everyone should pick this book up. It dives into the decline of humanity and how far humans will go even trying to live normally. You see characters take certain political views of this transition and the choices Marcos makes and how he interacts with people and “food.” Though reviewing this in 2024, I read this in September of 2023 and it is hands down joining the ranks of my favorite books of all time.

I understand why people call this book a classic and a masterpiece. An important, although a difficult, story to read about a dystopian future where books are burned simply for existing.

honestly, this book wasn't as bad as I thought it would be AT ALL. I actually read about 200 pages when I first got it then forgot about it because I wanted to read other books. I finished the rest of it (the book was 506 pages long) in about 2 days because it went by so fast. I loved this book and will definitely read the sequel.

This is my first time reading a book from this author. I enjoyed it from the beginning to the very end. The story is about a star reporter for a big city paper is exactly where she wants to be. When her new job doesn't work out, she returns home back to where she started, working for her sister who is trying to keep The Silver Bay Beacon afloat. The star reported after returning home witnesses an accident that ends in the death of a local congressman, a beloved war hero with a shady past. This story will have surprises, some good and bad. I hope whoever decides to read this enjoys it just as much as I did.

Very good story. Kept me guessing as to who did what. I did not guess the ending either.

The book Guts is a true story about the author Raina Telgemeier. The book is about anxiety and stomach issues. She had gotten the stomach bug and is scared to throw up. It shows the journey of the author's mental and physical health issues. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.

A delightful assortment of romantic tales set in the enchanting world of Allura.

While the stories stand alone, they collectively enrich the broader Heirs of Allura universe, making this collection a must-read for fans of the series and newcomers alike who enjoy fantasy romance with depth and heart.

I loved this book. The main character and her devlopment in the book is amazing and the way the book is written is very mature yet very realistic in term of the world we live in. I also like the MMC character development as well and being able to hate him and like him all at once.

This Could Be Us

This is the second book of Ryan’s Skyland series. While it does not seem like it’s imperative that you read them in order I did enjoy the first book, “Before I Let Go” better.
