None Shall Sleep
by Ellie Marney

book cover


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.

In the book Ghosts a girl named Catrina and her sister have to move. Catrina's little sister Maya is sick. She has cystic fibrosis and something that would benefit her would be the cool salty air that blows from the sea. Though Catrina is upset that she has to move and leave all her friends behind. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.

What a cute story! I loved the main character's relationship with his mom, his friends, his sister, and the members of his community. But to be honest, I was a little bit annoyed with the famous Ms. Buenrostro by the novel's end...although not enough to stop reflecting on how empowering this novel was! A perfect summer read about long bike rides and hot days.

This was a pretty decent book. As the writer of One of us is lying I definitely expected more from her but it's not a horrible book. The relationship between the Tripp an the main character is great and the murder mystery is also pretty good although the murderer was pretty obvious.

The Elements Of Style, Fourth Edition
by E. B. White

book cover


Simple, clear-cut; firm yet passionate insistence on how to approach writing. Comes across as rigid at times, but it’s not as though you’re being held at gunpoint to implement all of these rules exactly and without fail. Helpful for me, personally, because I need to learn how to be concise.

Gabriel Allon Series Book #25 I loved this book! I followed Gabriel Allon throughout the series. Daniel Silva books are great. This one involves intrigue in Rome, The Vatican, and Florence.

Have You Seen Luis Velez?
by Catherine Ryan Hyde

book cover


3.5 stars. This was a beautiful story about intergenerational friendship that reflected the goodness (and evil) in our world. It touched on the themes of racism, sexuality, and how we form our chosen families. Just when I thought I knew what this story was about, it revealed another dimension. Simple prose but a powerful message.
