Edith Wharton's 1905 novel The House of Mirth is set in the Gilded Age. In this novel, Wharton portrays the ultimate tragic fate of her protagonist, Lily Bart, a young beautiful, inexperienced and proud woman who is beguiled by and, in the end, betrayed by the glittering materialistic society she lives in. The novel is suspenseful in that the reader wants to know what will happen to Lily, a conflicted character, who aspires to be part of this society that she is unable to conform to.

I've always loved Karen M. McManus' books and this one certainly did not disappoint. At the beginning, I expected this to be a slow story, but along the halfway point I realized how fast the book was actually moving. Along with plot twists I wasn't expecting, the characters were engaging and made reading this book a very enjoyable experience.

Great book about traveling the universe and babelfish.

Dork Diaries 15

book cover


I love this book and how the mood keeps on changing. I am sad the main character did not have a romantic time with Brandon. Mackenize is a backstabber by first being kind to her for saving her life and then she steals the dress which she did not fully pay for. Great book!

Mesmerizing novel set in an enchanting world of a Depression-era traveling circus. With its richly drawn characters and a compelling blend of romance, adventure, and historical detail, this book is a heartfelt and unforgettable journey.

OCME

book cover


Interesting history about the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Baltimore, MD. Thought it would be more of a memoir, but a lot of time was dedicated to talking about the formation of the OCME and I found it a little bit boring.

It Had To Be You

book cover


This is the story of twin young men accused of killing their parents. Without enough evidence to convict or prove innocent the story shows how it affects their lives and relationships. Ten years later the family, with the help of a tv show, set out to find new evidence to solve the case. There are several twists and turns in the story to keep you guessing until the end. This book was quick and easy read.

Total mind-bender that' had me hooked from page one. Angela R. Watts serves up a wild ride of epic battles and mind-blowing twists that'll leave you itching for more once you're done.

Red Queen

book cover


I started this book on a recommendation made by my friends. Was not at all what I expected because I don't usually read dystopian fantasy. Was such a weird trope (everyone is chosen but you) instead of the normal (you're the chosen one). Don't hate but I think it's an acquired taste. Might continue onto the next book
