4.5 stars Honey was a wild and sexy ride of a girl's adventure through the 90s-00s music industry. This book is girlhood, femininity and pain. Though it is fast-paced, and I did wish for it to slow down at some points and further explain (reason for 4.5 rating). I understand why people might not like this aspect, but I see it as a way of the girls having to grow up fast and live fast lives, and even being in the heat of certain situations: time goes by fast. Thought it would’ve been great to have certain parts expanded upon--There were many quotes and lines that I’ve annotated that made me fall in love with the writing! Thanks to Bookish First of an ARC of "Honey"

This book is illustrated beautifully. The suspense and drama that occurred in William Shakespeare's life fills these pages, keeping readers on the edges of their seats. It includes names of famous plays that he wrote, his childhood, and hardships he had to suffer through.

This novel blends horror and family drama in a way that really pulled me in. It follows a young boy named Noah as he navigates the eerie and dysfunctional world created by his father's obsession with building a haunted house, all while dealing with the complexities of his family's relationships. The mix of supernatural elements and deep emotional exploration kept me engaged, making it a haunting yet heartfelt read that lingers long after the last page.

I always enjoy anything written by Anne Tyler, but this was not one of my favorites.

It was a very good book and was truly a exciting, excellent, and an exquisite book to read. Feels both fresh and exciting, crafting a distinct identity that stands out against the many other books on the stands. In the book, there was a lot going on and it was kind of hard to connect the pictures to the text. But overall, the book was very good and I look forward to reading the next parts of the books.

Always tricky - keeps you guessing.

Death On The Nile by Agatha Christie is a superb book with numerous twists and turns. It demonstrates an incredible plot, diverse and unique characters, and the sense of being trapped with the killer. It also utilizes third-person narrative in a very satisfying way, allowing us to know what the characters are thinking yet also not spoil the ending. However, the story has a very long exposition, taking up a good portion of the book, and a shorter (yet still long) "falling action/conclusion" taking up a small section of the book. In summation, this well-made book with an incredible plot is great for readers, as long as they have some patience.

Dual Image had me hooked from the beginning, loved every word from the very last one. I always loved her books and would definitely re this again, even buy it for my personal collection. The love story about finding first love was so well written. Hooked from the start, it has me believing in love again. It wasn't only about romantic love between a couple. It was about love of a child and fighting for this child, to give this child the life he deserves after losing both his parents. I truly recommend this book for all Nora Roberts fans and anyone who loves and believes in happy endings.

A gripping and heart-wrenching memoir that offers a firsthand account of survival during the Cambodian genocide. Brings to life the horrors of the Khmer Rouge regime and the author's incredible journey of resilience, helpful in understanding this dark period of history

Every. Single. Time. I think I have it all figured and she has to get me with that one final blurb at the end.
