American Street
by Ibi Zoboi

book cover


This book was so good. Ibi Zoboi has written so many great books about the lives and struggles of Black females. She describes the environment that Fabiola was living in, the relationships she gained, and the people that she had encountered throughout the story so amazingly. I will definitely read this book again.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is the second book in the series. In this book Harry Potter goes to his second year at Hogwarts. An elf comes to visit Harry to tell him that he should not return to Hogwarts that year. Warning him that his second year at Hogwarts would be trouble. I enjoyed reading this book and would rate it a five.

I wanted to watch the movie so bad, and thought I was so lucky when I found the DVD at my local thrift store. I watched the movie and immediately wanted to read the book. I am so happy I watched the movie before I read the book because I would have thought I was going crazy otherwise. This may be one of the few times where I like the movie better than the book. I am not saying this because the book was bad, it was not, but the movie made me more invested and was easier to follow.

The overstory

This was recommended to me by a coworker. Overall, the book was interesting, and I found myself wanting to learn more about the historical events that were referenced. However, the story felt dragged out at times and at times I struggled to continue with the novel. The story crosses many years, and even millennia when you talk about the trees. I would say this is a good book for those who like a long novel and stories that are told through many different voices.

Great concept, but some parts felt a little too repetitive and I hated the ending. Spoiler alert: as soon as he figured out how to survive and got food, he gets rescued. Meh.

The Mad Wife

Great story from the 1950's about how dismissive men were towards a woman's needs. The story was well written and if you listen to the notes from the author at the end, Megan Church explains how she came to write this story.

I love every new character in this series! With every chapter comes a new question to be answered and a game to be played. Everything, from the plot, to the new characters, are impeccably written! Can't wait to see where this series goes next! Eagerly awaiting the next book.

Kingdom of Ash

Wow - what a fiery ending for Fireheart. This series had the best story telling, character development, and arcs that I have seen in a long time. It is SJM’s best work yet! Aelin and Rowan guide us through insane end of world moments, and you fall deeply in love with each character. This ending allows us to understand each characters’ personal background and eventually it all comes together with the finale. I felt like I was part of the battle, and rooting for Aelin and her court on every page. The different perspectives add such layers to the storytelling it was impeccable.
