His Side, Her Side and the truth about falling in love
by Christina C. Jones (romance Fiction Writer)
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This dual POV story brilliantly captures how two people can experience the same love in wildly different ways. It’s messy, hilarious, occasionally petty, and deeply human — like listening to your friends unpack their situationship in a group chat. It proves that perspective is everything, especially when hearts are on the line.

The Red Flags I've (repeatedly) Ignored
by Brianna McCabe
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This book is about a girl who was a victim of domestic violence. It is very graphic in many explanations of the situations. Being on the domestic violence response team, I understood some of what happened, but it was sad how she let herself be abused and thought it was OK or blamed herself. She warns her readers of the parts that might be difficult to read. I recommend this book to those who take the book seriously.

Same Time Next Summer

This was my first Monaghan book. I really enjoyed her writing style. I felt that the then and now aspects of the book complemented each other seamlessly. I do wish there was a "future" or little epilogue that gave readers a glimpse into what could have happened.

Older series from an author I read. Can't believe I missed this one. Lots of exposition and characters. I am assuming each of the characters introduced here will have their own book.

The book The Darkest Hour by Erin Hunter is very intriguing and appealing to the reader. The book is the last in the original series of The Warriors books and before the series The New Prophecies. This book states how Fireheart the main character has to undergo a new type of job by being the leader of Thunderclan after the previous leader Bluestar dies. He has to fight against Scourge the leader of Bloodclan and emerges successful.

Amazing! So creative and hooking! Can't wait to read the next book in the series.

Summer Ever After

book cover


I like the concept behind this book but the execution is not there. The main character started annoying me with how much she was letting tropes get in the way of her life. Also, she should have just been honest with her best friend because she would have understood that she’s been in love with her brother for years.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
by J.K. Rowling

book cover


Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone is the first book in the series. The book is about a 11 year old boy named Harry Potter. He had gotten a letter from a place called Hogwarts. Hogwarts is a school for wizards. He and his friends have to save the Sorcerer’s Stone so that an evil wizard would not become undefeatable. I really enjoyed reading this book and rated it five stars.

The Gray House

book cover


I found this book to be a truly unique and immersive experience. It's set in a boarding school for kids with disabilities, but it's so much more than that - the story weaves together reality and fantasy in mind-bending ways. The characters and their relationships are complex and fascinating, even if the narrative structure can be confusing at times. While it's not an easy read, I was captivated by the surreal atmosphere and depth of the world Petrosyan created.

Princess Jellyfish

I completed my first manga as part of Book Riot's Read Harder Challenge. And, I have to say, I enjoyed it! There were a lot of Japanese cultural concepts that were unfamiliar to me, but the footnotes and endnotes helped a lot. I didn't realize manga were read back to front either, so that was a little hard to get used to but was routine by the end of the book. I'm not sure I'll continue with manga, but I'm glad the challenge exposed me to something different! It was nice that the characters were single women with passions that society deemed unusual.
