Agatha Christie's Murder On The Orient Express

View in Library Catalog
book cover


The brilliant Hercule Poirot does his finest detective work while being snowbound on the Orient Express.

Sisters: A Graphic Novel
by Raina Telgemeier
View in Library Catalog
book cover


The book Sisters is a follow up from her other book smile. The book is about a long summer family vacation. They were taking a trip from San Francisco to Colorado. It is all about Reina and her younger sister Amara and their sisterly relationship. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.

Temple of Swoon

book cover


Great story! As a lover of standalone books I loved that this one connected to the first but totally worked on its own. I really like how unique the books by this author are, the journeys on archeological digs are really interesting. The change of female leads were also a cool concept because of how it highlighted insecurity based on comparison.

book cover


A Rose for Emily by William Faulkner is a haunting Southern Gothic tale of isolation, control, and resistance to change. Faulkner’s nonlinear storytelling builds suspense, revealing a chilling portrait of Emily Grierson’s tragic life and twisted legacy.

The Death Archives
by Jorn "Necrobutcher" Stubberud
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Four stars purely due to personal enjoyment. Quite light on heavy duty information; more-so a ‘behind the scenes’ book with anecdotes, insight, and lots of photography relating to Mayhem’s early days. (For me, the photography was the best part. Good quality, good paper, full one- or two-page spreads.) Stubberud has a habit of lying or embellishing, though, so I wouldn’t give a full four stars especially when it comes to the potential ‘padding’ added in when discussing his apparent reconciliation with Aarseth… Overall, a ‘coffee table’ book for people already familiar with Mayhem.

Karen's Grandmothers: A Graphic Novel (baby-sitters Little Sister #9)
by Ann M. Martin

book cover


In this book Karen decided to start adopting Grandmothers. She had more grandmothers than anybody knows. She had adopted five grandmothers and she thinks it's special. One of the grandma's makes her listen to old music and teaches her funny dance. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate the book five stars.

Poirot Investigates
by Agatha Christie
View in Library Catalog
book cover


In Christie's first short story collection we see the Belgium detective uncover the truth behind 14 different mysteries, complete with liars, secrets, and red herrings. Although the book was interesting, the short stories felt strangely paced and similar to one another. If I were to recommend this to someone, I would recommend that they read the book as episodes, not as a continued novel.

Travel with Jess, as she finds herself, from Lake Como NJ to Carrara, Italy (near Lake Como Italy). Beautifully written story that makes you feel you are a part of Jess's story. Great read!

I love this book. It gives courage to DV victims and gives them a powerful reason to leave.
