Amazingly written, with tons of plot twists and mystery that will keep you guessing every step of the way. The author writes characters' internal conflicts so well, making you empathize with them. Her knowledge of criminal psychology makes everything feel so accurate and realistic.

Tender Is The Flesh

book cover


5 stars “She had the human look of a domesticated animal” This novel is absolutely disgusting and I mean that in the most respectful way possible. The whole concept of this book—All meat is infected therefore humans cannot consume it. This leads the the massacre of farm to pet animals, ultimately resulting in the consumption of “special meat” or better known, human meat. We follow Marcos working on a processing plant going through the motions of the transition, his wife leaving, his sister’s views, his father’s declining health and a special gift: and FGP female. Honestly everyone should pick this book up. It dives into the decline of humanity and how far humans will go even trying to live normally. You see characters take certain political views of this transition and the choices Marcos makes and how he interacts with people and “food.” Though reviewing this in 2024, I read this in September of 2023 and it is hands down joining the ranks of my favorite books of all time.

Let Me Hold You
by Alexandria House

book cover


This one is passionate, complicated, and messy in the best way. There’s a lot of heat, but it also unpacks real stuff—fatherhood, identity, emotional growth. You’ll want to yell at the characters and root for them at the same time. A spicy, grown-folk rollercoaster you’ll be glad you rode.

Chainsaw Man, Vol. 13

Chainsaw Man Volume 12 delivers a bold and gripping start as a part 2. High schooler Asa uneasy blend of teenage angst and her devil power brings fresh tension. The new characters, dark stakes, and a momentum that hooks hard brutal, weird, and utterly compelling.

Rash

book cover


A pretty interesting plot and decent characters, although at times it feels like the storyline was all over the place. The idea of having a USSA where everything is illegal caught my eye, but overall didn't really execute it how I thought it would. The whole addition of Boho Marsten getting obsessed with football when he was in the prison, but then going to South America for track instead also felt a bit whack. Why didn't the author just not add the football storyline, and expand on his love for track? Another flaw in the football part, was his team. Bo just left his football teammates to spend another few years in prison, and gets no consequence? Still, it was a pretty decent book, but I personally will probably never re-read.

The Cider House Rules

One of the best books I've ever read. Although if was over 20 hours of listening, I didn't want this book to ever end. It takes you through the life of an orphan, Homer Wells and his mentor/wanna be father Dr Larch. This book is filled with so many taboo subjects with graphic content that one might shy away from reading it, but didn't. It's a fantastic start

The book Guts is a true story about the author Raina Telgemeier. The book is about anxiety and stomach issues. She had gotten the stomach bug and is scared to throw up. It shows the journey of the author's mental and physical health issues. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.
