View in Library Catalog
book cover


Edith Wharton's 1905 novel The House of Mirth is set in the Gilded Age. In this novel, Wharton portrays the ultimate tragic fate of her protagonist, Lily Bart, a young beautiful, inexperienced and proud woman who is beguiled by and, in the end, betrayed by the glittering materialistic society she lives in. The novel is suspenseful in that the reader wants to know what will happen to Lily, a conflicted character, who aspires to be part of this society that she is unable to conform to.

Ante Up

Whew, this book does not play around! It’s dark, sexy, and emotionally intense with just the right touch of vulnerability. King is the kind of antihero you lowkey want to stay mad at—but can’t. And the chemistry? Unapologetically hot. The audio brings the gritty, grown energy to life. Not for the faint of heart, but absolutely worth the ride.

THIS BOOK WAS SO CUTE. I love the taylor swift references <33 i love how relatable noah is, especially the desperate, hopeless romantic aspect. drew was absolutely insufferable I was internally yelling at Noah the whole time. but, honestly, I would've done the same thing so. Noah and Devin were amazing together I was waiting for them to kiss the whole time. gorgeous book, I will reread it a million times.

Wonder was uplifting and gave me a new perspective on the world. I loved how it gave multiple perspectives of the characters throughout the book rather then one narrator that would just infer what other characters are thinking.

The girls in the basement

book cover


The Girls in the Basement is a story about a human trafficking ring where young women are sold into slavery. The story was all over the place and there were almost too many characters with too many side plots. The author was able to tie the ending up in a neat bow, but I felt like the story could have been more if it weren't for all of the repetitive scenes.

The Alchemist

book cover


5 stars I’ve been in a reading slump for about a month or two, so I wanted to pick up a short book to start with. The Alchemist is a book full of wisdom. It is a book that is very direct in telling you to follow your heart and Personal Legend before it’s too late. It urges you to think of your dreams and what you wanted in life. It shows you that just because fate is written one way, your heart can lead you to the path of what you desire. It gives the sense of being and how everything happens for a reason and everyone has a purpose on this planet. And not only those lessons, but the people who can help bring you along, set you back or challenge you to prove yourself of these Personal Legends.

It’s was a quick and cute follow up to The Unhoneymooners! I like that it gave Olive’s twin sister, Ami a happy ending as well.

The Naturals

THIS BOOK IS A MUST-READ!! I can't believe that this book is not talked about more. I love the little blurbs between the chapters and the way they solve the case in the end. Can not believe the way that the psychology of the characters and the killer is ingrained in the book from the start. The characters are written beautifully and I will be continuing onto the next book.
